Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[therumblings]

Oh no! My hype level... It's going up! Hype only leads to dissapointment. Must not give in!

We're too far gone already, days of eagerly anticipating the alpha every single day have led us to this very moment, we have gone on copium overdrive. Hoping the hype pays off

When was Shadowlands added to catalog and how long it took till first build?

Shadowlands was added to the catalog on April 3rd (a friday) with the client releasing on the next Tuesday/Wednesday (depending on timezone).

So it's the same situation - next week.

Copium Mk2

420 copium it.

[Catastrophy349]

Next week is gonna be a LIT week, if you catch my drift.

[towelliee]

it's almost like my Alpha command date is kinda happening

OH

Does this 100% reject the idea of a mined build today?

It's summer and there are fires?

[Marlamin]

Nope, but I'll be (happily) surprised if they give us a full weekend of datamining before next week's festivities.

OH

Out of curiosity, why did you call Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday stuff like "Alpha Watch Day 1" and so on if you're so sure of an actual date?

[towelliee]

oh hype content viewership obviously

[Worldshaper]

Imagine if it drops in like 2 hours. It'd be perfect. Dozens of new models and icons just pouring in. Oh and MUSIC because we're far along in development.

And the unexpected surprise, additional customization options for Allied Races!

[Xofoo]

What are these festivities? I must have missed something?

[Worldshaper]

oh hype content viewership obviously

Well, thanks for saying it out loud at least.

[8bithamster]

For those going "OMG WE SAID SO! IT WOULD DROP TODAY!!" you said the same every week, every day so far. A broken clock is still right 2 times a day.

[Vasoka]

oh hype content viewership obviously

No chance for datamining today?

He can't outright tell his viewers when the Alpha would start. That would be distrustful and keep Blizzard from trusting him on future insider info in the future. That is why he said "Alpha Prediction July 14th" over a month ago. He used the word "prediction" to sort of "cover his behind" while also letting his community know to chill out.
