Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[sys01]

I know this may be the most uninteresting question regarding DF but is there a screenshot around with the Graphical settings from DF Alpha?
I'm curious if Blizzard added DLSS 2.0 or FSR 2.0 or any of the RayTracing Reflections / RayTracing Global Lighting

Fun detected: The Dracthyr flight has a cooldown that’s activated upon landing.

Even though it’s just 5 minutes, they shouldn’t have a cooldown at all. It’s like if they added a cooldown to running wild.

Traitor dragonflight that maybe got sunken beneath the waves and will rise up in 10.1? A lot of possibilities there.

There's (seemingly) a patch island to the south of Azure span to the south.

Wow doesn't really have sea dragon. But could bring them in

Agreed. It's probably one of the unequivocally cool little features. Giving it a 5 min CD is silly.

So any thoughts on this Grand Time Adventure thing in the misc changes thread? Could it be one of the dungeons? A quest series, maybe?

Tuskarr Turtle boats are back and there is one that travels to the coast (doesn't stop) of every Azeroth continent.

That. Was. Amazing.

I've seen maps for things like "Pandaren Revolution", "Gnoll wars" (elwynn forest), "War of the Shifting sands". So that tracks for me

I know what those are. It's just that they're bundled under one parent tag.

CoT on steroids.

Also possibly alternative reality were murlocs conquered Dragonblight

Probably Chromie Scenario stuff 2.0 since everyone loved "Deaths of Chromie".

Nothing too exciting, but hey it sounds fun as a premise.

Yeah was thinking the same.

There's also a "Azermloth" map that's Dragonblight but with Murloc warbles as...everything.

Warlords of Azmerloth. For expansion 11

[MightyWarrior]

Not gonna lie, everything thats been revealed today looks amazing (apart for warrior talent tree) but thats still WIP.

Chromie Time 2 is incredibly exciting and I hope this is it!

[Slowpoke is a Gamer]

Holy shit, I think I just saw the best thing about this expansion.

It's at the timestamp.


Public transportation! THIS IS IT. THIS IS WHAT I WANT. MORE OF THIS! I NEED MORE!!!

You can finally go to Pandaria WITHOUT. USING. A. GODDAMN. PORTAL!!

I was actually just thinking "is our only access going to be the goddamn portal room again" and lo and behold I follow a quote chain to this video.

Wish they gave it proper stops at these locations. Maybe that's what the other boat is for. Always a fan of "public transportation" as you called it.

In case you haven't seen this, here is a blue post about the talent trees and feedback:

[Wonderment2]

"Dragon Isles Underground [WARNING: MUST be kept flagged "DEVELOPMENT MAP" until 10.1] (New) - Max players: 5."

..... New dungeon in 10.1?

[8bithamster]

our intention for talent and loadout swapping long-term, and for Dragonflight launch, is to allow it to be done without the need of being in a rested area or the use of items such as Inscription Tomes.

This is a great change!

[UnholyGTX]

Interesting how it looks like one of the zones already sunk into the sea...

I noticed that too, I cant wait to get my hands on the game as that is gonna be the first thing I go inspect. The way the mountains are surrounding the bay just seems suspicious to me.

[Kiivar86]

Apologies if this was already posted, I'm playing catch up, but instanes seem to be:

-Brackenhide Hollow
-Halls of Infusion
-Neltharus
-Ruby Life Pools
-Taz'algeth Academy
-The Azure Vault
-The Nokhud Offensive (that's one of the maps, it looks quite large)
-Uldaman: Legacy of Tyr

edit: Bleh, the mount collection rewards a yeti? What a downer.
