Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[deucecorp]

I mean, you can link your Data for Azeroth .

BfA had 10 dungeons, SL had 8 and now DF has 8.

Wrath and TBC had more dungeons because they had recycled dungeons which wouldn't fly today. (All the Auchindun dungeons, all the Serpentshrine Dungeons, all the HFC dungeons etc. Wrath had the Nexus dungeons, the Utgarde dungeons, the Gundrak dungeons etc.)

You say you care about quality yet you bring up the numbers which is completely irrelevant.

Yes you are right, quality raised too since Wotlk. Best part of WoD were the 5 men dungeons. I'd still expect more, not less. Company grew bigger too, or not?
Numbers I've put there are valid. I included ALL 5 men dungeons including the mega dungeons. And their numbers are declining with every expac.
You can't argue with that.
Same way, after first few days of leveling I'll be facing 4 dungeons for M+, others I've done million times on 5 alts. They can put them under a hotkey with label 'nostalgia'. edit: raid won't be open early again as usually. so will be probably stuck with the 'nostalgia'. here we go again.
edit2: after the nostalgia of the 9.2.5 nostalgia. haha

I want more NEW content. You defend the constant rehash. They can always impress me though with proper 16 dungeons by the end of the expac.

Since it's monday, do you guys think we will get some new reveal today? Maybe an in-depth look at a class's talent tree or a propper preview of the new dragonriding customizations? Or maybe a new PTR build?

I got a feeling they are gonna be releasing the talent builder this week, considering they said it will get released before Alpha, and Alpha is bound to come out within the next few weeks judging by the builds.

< Darth Vader NOOOOOOOO >

I like how you instantly knew my next most-hated dungeon too damn.

I pretty much just went with what would be about the most insanely annoying M+ ever. I mean, can you imagine having to do a full clear of BRD on a timer?

Maybe i should add that you get locked in and Never gonna give you up plays the whole time.

[Nymrohd]

I have to ask, why do people hate Stormstout Brewery so much? I like that dungeon

[deucecorp]

That's an expectation that both makes no sense and has no justification. Learn 20 or 24 new dungeons would be horrific, and no matter how "rich" Blizzard are, you can't properly balance and maintain 24 M+ dungeons! That's completely bonkers!

Why would you want that, or even think it made sense?

Because took me 4 weeks again to get burnt out of the same 8+1 on 4 characters.. Like half year ago. Nostalgia dungeons won't help that. After 2-3 runs I'll be like "seen this million times?".
Why is it a problem though that I want at least the same amount like "last year"? Yes, they are nicer dungeons, but that doesn't justify the fact there are less and less. Everything is evolving and improving in life. I sit in front of a 4K oled. It's not less or smaller, it's moar in every aspect compared to last year's display.

Whatever, I just repeating myself, and you just defending the rehash, I'm out. Tuskarr & flying high in the sky. Graphic designers FTW.

I thought you were out like 3 posts before? I wish you a happy life, please don't bother with us anymore. Thaaaanks.

I also love it, maybe people think the trash is annoying though?

Has it occured to you that you burn out because you overdo things?

Yes, commenting on mmo champ might be one activity such as. They don't remember expacs like Cata with fully redesigned old world, new world, guild perks, DOUBLE raids in yo face straight away.. They just keep repeating here "why you want dungeons and content? just enjoy the Tuskarr on your oled tv"

You mean the one that ultimately suffered from doing those exact things? Also, one of those raids had a total of 2 bosses and no trash at all and was basically just an extension of the other.

We'll probably never get another world revamp again because Cata proved doing it wasn't financially viable.

A lot of annoying trash mechanics and also one of the most unforgiving CM dungeons.

I would love to play a Tuskarr on my oled tv <3

Well they can easily tune the timer better this time.

[Lahis]

I mean, Allied Race just means "is not big enough to be considered their own race" and "does not have their own starting zone".

It is also a special box feature of a concluded expansion.

[Aeluron Lightsong]

What did I even just witness /confused


Edit: Nvm, guess its still going on /facepalm

bwd had 6, bot had 4 bosses+sinestra. all lovely funny and enjoyable well designed scripts. two totally different raids by graphical aspect. but yes you are right. they dont even bother to do 1-2 bosses filler raids anymore. less content, repetitive content is "more".
you think it takes much time to put together wqs? or "design" crazy difficult covenant perks such as +2% stamina? I dont think so.

No, but the Covenants as a whole? Those certainly did. We also had a two boss raid just last expansion that apparently slipped your mind as well.

I think you are feeding the troll

[KayRule]

It was also stated from day one by the devs and reiterated multiple times it would be a framework to build off of and see use in future expansions, which is why when it's been asked about in Shadowlands and Dragonflight the answers have never been "that was only in BfA". Their response to the Dragonflight question is even more damning as they're saying there won't be any AR in "10.0". and not the entire expansion like in Shadowlands.

But you'll ignore this post, again, because you have some weird obsession with no more Allied Races being added.

Boring, cumbersome, filled with shitty gags, and is just too goofy for me.



I hated it as a child when it first came out, did it again as a grown man while grinding for the soulshape during timewalking, still hate it LOL.

[Gloriandus]

I just want to see more about the UI revamp. Will it be as "openly" customizable as FF14? Will it have a built-in alignment grid? Will there be an option to show bags individually, or as one giant bag? Will they restore the interface options pruned in Legion? How will the fonts and font drop shadows look? Will they improve raid alerts and spell telegraphs on bosses?

I'm very interested in seeing how far they will go!

[Revamp Man]

Yeah you're full of it.

New account checks out.

20 bucks says sock account to make his main feel better

OT: Tuskarr returning and the fact they displayed a racial mount and the fact they use panda skeleton which is one of the three not used makes me think they are the next race
