Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Revamp Man]

No build today, just some emergency maintenance on all test realms (including Classic). Hopefully fixes the constant DCs though, if not hopefully the build later this week will.

i am just as happy with no build as i am with the fixes

both give me stuff to play

so how come nobody has made speculation posts about the whispers in chromie time....like come on guys that was easy

How can we be THIS close to the release of the pre-patch (a mere 3 weeks) and we've yet to hear the dracthyr voice-lines...? Come on!

Also... the music seems to be in the game; lets release the flippin' soundtrack on Spotify!

If it is in game why no one released it?

Is it? Doesn't seem like it.

Is the login theme in yet?

No, it's still Shadowlands login theme.

Let's hope we get a more stable build, last build had so many bugs.

Stop lying. Music isn't in.

I'm not lying; a lot of music seems to be in, if you listen to streamers/testers... I'm sure it's not all final, but I'm hearing a lot new music/sounds!

I logged in and went to several areas, I can confirm there is NO music in the beta as of yet.

Hmm, have you considered that might be their own music?

No, it's not. It's actually rather eerie if you're used to play with music on.

Why is everyone thinking we're going to the Emerald Dream now? Was there something in the recent PTR/Beta updates?

[Dracullus]

That doesn't sound terribly out of line with the usual.

Leveling on main should just require whatever it takes to finish zones, without war mode/dungeons, but with some bonus questlines.

More important how fast alt leveling will be. Imo perfect would be something like post 9.1.5 (especially fast fill the bar objectives feel great), with slower Chromie option (so finishing whole expansion continent would be full 10-70 experience).

We do know there is a plot involving Ysera. And in the Ohnaran plains, the Primalists have sided with the Nokhud so they can get their help to gain control over a gate to the Emerald Dream located by the Green Oathstone. In the same way that you can't have a plot for the Bronze that doesn't involve time, you can't have a plot involving the Green that doesn't involve the dream.

If the Primalists wish to expunge the influence of the Titans from Azeroth, disjoining the Emerald Dream would definitely be important to them; it's the very blueprint of how they'd wish to shape Azeroth.

Not to mention we barely scratch the surface during lvling. We rebuff the Primalists but barely get to set foot in the actual green sanctuary iirc

Doesn't explain why we would go there, though. Besides, how much the Dream is really a blueprint or even Titan-made is still questionable.

Good time to answer that question then.

Iirc Steve Danuser did tease the Emerald Dream as something we would visit later during the Expansion during one of the interviews.

No Taliesin made a speculation video claiming it will be.

[Valysar]

I guess we'll have musics with this week's build

[Xilurm]

Hope the login screen theme is like 12 mins long.

[Lahis]

Hope the login screen theme is like 12 mins long.

Optimized for current launcher enabled login times and it is only 10 second jingle.
