Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Lady Atia]

I'm hoping all the old models will get updated like the race models did in WoD. So Onyxia and drconids etc aren't so polygonal. I don't think they will HD the old mounts like how the old racial mounts are still chunks but they introduced the HD versions via PVP saddles etc which is a shame. I would also love for them to HD up Tarecgosa and the Sands of Time shape shift but I doubt they will.

Well, they did HD up some mounts like the Kodos, the weird Striders aswell as the Amani Bears, so I have hopes that they will do the same for all the other classic mounts, maybe with the revamp expansion?

With the way Blizzard is doing PTR updates now, I really wonder if there is even any point of having the x.x.5 patches on the PTR at all.

Well, they have to test their anti-mining encryption as much as anything else.

Generic dragon models will be updated.

Special models for dead characters like Onyxia won't be.

I bet they will update the "unique" models for Ony, Nelf, Azuregos etc.

[Lahis]

Why? They're all dead and will at most be seen in some Wrathion flashback.

Come on now, it is impolite to say Azuregos is dead just because he is old.

[Cheezits]

The "What's New" screen is apparently encrypted in this build, so there must be a very spoiler image and text. Calia or rangers?

Well, he has been known to stay dead on occasion to see his Kyrian girlfriend.

Splash screen for the horde allied race & splash screen for the alliance allied race. Let's go!

[Veluren]

is that speculation or is it real

I think it was the "This is what I want it to be, let's go!"

[therumblings]

is that speculation or is it real

It's easy to tell based on who posted it

[Ersula]

Well its not for the Dark Iron & Blood Knight questlines. Because why encrypt those?

My only question is wouldn't you want to give people a chance to test something like that on the PTR before they pre-order it? They did that for the BFA Allied Races.

[wowrefugee]

I've hyped myself up so much I will be disappointed if there's not a new allied race.

I do think something as important as an allied race should be tested and feedback should be given and acted on before release. Could've avoided some missteps and frustrations like Void Elf customization.

I think it would be risky, but it could be so awesome to have a brand new allied race suddenly show up in the game without any datamining beforehand.

[Ersula]

That would be extremely awesome.

But a little wasted on Darkfallen. That's the exact thing everyone's already guessing it is. T&E even made a video about it.

Hmm... Didn't we already remove the warrens fear a long time ago?

Edit: idk how to read, that was meant to be a cheat for GMs, the second part is what's supposed to be interesting

[wowrefugee]

I almost thought that was a spam bot message lol.

So Dorithur is Tyrande's owl who accompanies Sylvanas to the maw.

Does each quest actually have the designer, producer, etc listed?

I guess, all that techy like talk feels legit. Inb4 ppl whine about Danuser.
