Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Aeluron Lightsong]

I agree with you on that as well. The entire video was information about non-important stuff tho. And lots of arrogant selfcomplimenting, as is common in America.

Or just proud of what they made, reading waaay too much into it.

[Ersula]

Nah never said “no”
Was saying that every race has at least two body types, with Orcs having a third with their upright body type.

Then you already got what you wanted.

Orcs & Dracthyr have 3 body options. Congratulations.

[Dracullus]

For the sake of everyone here's sanity I hope we get some news today.

Hope for today, but expect Thursday 7PM on EU. As always. (And that apply to 9.2.5 date reveal, not pre-order - only reason to start pre-order later are potential items from patch)

Yes. We’ve already been told we’d have more body options for the Dracthyr form.

I’m wanting it to be similar to Thunderbrush’s edits and not the size difference Au-burn pointed out from the presentation.

[Valysar]

Today we'll have 9.2.5 release date, pre-orders, and alpha client, 100% sure

(in my dreams)

[Lahis]

Both of those still show that it’s very easy for blizzard to add more body type options,

Posture is not body type. It is just different standing and running animation. The model is exactly the same.

And very gender is completely different model and set of animations.

June 1, there it is.

[Alexjimithing]

Alright alright now we're getting somewhere.

Throw out the preorders!

[Dracullus]

Nice. So pre-orders next week?

[Throren]

so 31st for NA, and June 1st for Eu, nice, so only a week

[Lady Atia]

June 1, there it is.

Finally! So I guess alpha testing soon(TM?)?

[Kiria]

Finally! So I guess alpha testing soon(TM?)?

Pre orders soon *Gets Excited*

[Dracullus]

Finally! So I guess alpha testing soon(TM?)?

All we know it's next step. During Legion->BfA when their PTR cycle was best, took like half a month from last patch to Alpha datamining.

[Hyrja]

Think pre orders next week when hype is high.

[Mutineer]

Interesting, the news post about 9.2.5 doesn't mention anything about all this encrypted stuff in Tirisfal Glades.

[Ersula]

Interesting, the news post about 9.2.5 doesn't mention anything about all this encrypted stuff in Tirisfal Glades.

Why would it? That would defeat the purpose of encrypting it.

[Mutineer]

Well, I wasn't suggesting they should explain the whole plot, but I'm a little surprised it's not even teased.

I suppose that points to it being tied to pre-ordering somehow?

[therumblings]

I'm guessing 9.2.5's encrypted stuff is related to the pre-orders then, and May 31 is when we get them.

[Vasoka]

Today, I will remind them of post #57995. No one believed, yet here we are.

)))))))))

Never doubt me again, I am transcended.

Weird that no one ever said Dracthyr would be getting a whole new model or genders.

Blizzard already confirmed they’re getting more torso/body options anyways. (Which is as much work as giving orcs an upright option)
If they’re already adding the options then I’d want those options to be close to Thunderbrush’s edits which would still be the same model and animations.

Don’t know why you think giving them a bulkier option is either indicative of gender or a whole new model and animations.
