Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

inb4 everything is time-gated in 9.2.5 ...

Something today, another thing in 2 weeks, in 1 month

How else would it be?

[rhorle]

I could actually see them coming in during the day today, especially if part of the encrypted stuff is a surprise pre-order bonus. Would be a great time to catch the player base by surprise before unveiling the build that has those pieces in place.

I would say Thursday or Friday would be more likely. It gives NA and EU the patch so pre-order stuff in the patch will be available to all.

[Foreign Exchange Ztudent]

It could also be that the story stuff isn't in the first week of the patch or the conclusion isn't in before next week. I mean this is a busy time of the year for news. So we'll see how it goes.

[Bindanda]

What are the chances of having pre-orders today?

Less then 0 percent

Would make sense, don’t see why not.

[allomgie]

I don't see why it would. If you suggest it would make sense because of 9.2.5, when it would be reasonable to wait until it's out in EU

[Raetary]

I doubt we'll see pre-orders before they announce alpha start.

[Foreign Exchange Ztudent]

Blizzard is not on the Summer Game Fest list, so we can scratch that off.

Looks like they are going to mimic the Dragonflight: Red Reveal at Gamescom w/ Release Date like they did for Shadowlands.

Wonder when the fuck the Amazon Prime Goodies for World of Warcraft will be shown off at this point. (Probably just an article?)

[wowrefugee]

. Also wasnt your profile pic already found to be part of the drakthyr?

No, it wasn’t. You are mistaken

If you're EU I've met some amazing people on that forum!

US, unfortunately

Up to 3 hours from now unless maintenance is extended. They could also come up earlier.

Thank you Birby *gives crackers*

[Kiivar86]

Maintenance extended to 5 pm PST/8 pm EST.

All these years you'd think I'd learn not to expect to play on patch day but no.

Haven't had a patch day problem since TBC.

Thank US for the beta testing on live production.

[Makorus]

Seeing these Maintenance times is fucked up as an European.

The game is down until like 7am-9am at the latest.

[ChairmanKaga]

I thought it was the other way around, that the more you'd done in life (including sins and atrocities), the more anima the venthyr could extract from you.

That's what I thought they explained with Garrosh.

[Makabreska]

That's what I thought they explained with Garrosh.

And Kael'thas.

[Valysar]

And on the European side, the servers will be up very early in the morning as usual xD

Also, would it be possible to datamine stuff that will be decrypted in 9.2.5. already, or will we have to wait for server to be up again for that?

The latter.

Wowhead would already be all over it if you could do it now.
