The War Within 11.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

[Cheezits]

Here's an idea.

What if the next expansion is a world revamp... But of Outland.

Wrath of the Warlords of Draenor

[KayRule]

I don't know how to tell you this... he's real, and he's been real for a few years.

Well then, my mistake.

[Raetary]

They said there's going to be a mount for Portal Pass owners which makes no sense.

They also sincerely say Blizzard will release a character in OW whose name sounds like "MAGA"

Mauga is a canon ow character that they have been planning around for a few years.

Here's an idea.

I doubt that.

Blizzard's been evacuating that place for a while now, constantly messaging that the place is falling apart and i doubt they intend to do a third expansion set on Draenor.

Towellie isn't an official hint. He could be right, he could be wrong.

TBF, Toweliee’s assertion was backed by the datamined Algarian Stormrider mount that appeared later.

He never does.

If I remember correctly, Towelliee "leaked" Dragonflight saying just: "it's going to be different". So if that's considered a leak, then yeah, he did a fantastic work

[maplesyrupgl]

I feel like the longer we go without a truly believable "leak", the more people are willing to just give anything the time of day.

Yeah, his hint was essentially that we're going underground. Thrall, Khaz Algar, and the Chinese leaker thus far all work along those lines.

[KyleEverett]

With the underground rumors persisting my current theory is the surface is going to be stormy and dangerous to be on for long. Imagine if we use the surface to travel dodging storms and tornadoes outside of a few scattered eco domes populated by Ethereals and Brokers who've set up shop long ago on Azeroth.

Isn’t the “Chinese leaker” that people talk about not an actual leaker but just someone who pointed out a pattern in expansions?

[ercarp]

Correct. But he's currently 3 for 3 with having correctly guessed the themes of 8.0, 9.0, and 10.0.

He believes that 11.0 will be focused on elementals, 12.0 will "somehow" connect to the faction war of MoP, and 13.0 will deal with Void Lords.

[Merryck]

Yes and he wasn't even that accurate about 8.0, calling it the Old God expansion without mention of the faction war, but calling 12.0 the faction war expansion. I mean, he prefaces it all by saying it's just a prediction, but people treat it as a leak.

[Izalla]

Yeah I think it could be really cool! I'm imagining a bigger, more spacious Ironforge where players use elevators or trams to get around. Especially trams. After playing Classic again after a long break, I've come to appreciate just how cool and unique the Deeprun Tram is and I find it a shame that we didn't get another form of transportation like that (we almost got one in Gorgrond, but it was scrapped).

Maybe the city is built into either side of a chasm with the streets being open like looking into a doll house on either side and you can use elevators at the backs of alleys to go up and down between the levels, or use dynamic flight to get up and down and across.

Could be something like Zion from The Matrix. dwellings etc built into the side with bridges cutting across the chasm.

That's what I'm picturing if they actually built a city in the fissure they went to explore.

Can someone remind me what caused Cataclysm to leak in its entirety? How did Boub get the info, I mean.

I know they had datamined Goblin and Worgen hallow's end masks which kinda of leaked the new races.

Yeah but Boub posted the whole Cata leak on MMOC that was WAY more than just Blizz accidentally adding those masks and then trying to backtrack and pretend they weren't the new races. This was the actual expac, name and all.

Google tells me the alpha client leaked and was datamined.

Not sure what thrall has to do with underground so i gotta ask.

[Ersula]

It took us this long to reign him in at least now he's attributing everything to an elemental theme. Gryphon Riders? That's wind. Thrall? That's a shaman. Underground? That's where rocks live.
