Blizzard's artists are so cool, too bad they have to deal with that crappy graphical engine.

So, who else is predicting there will be addons where it detects your class, and you choose 'PvE' or 'PvP' and it just automatically does your build for you? And if you aren't max level, it puts your points in for you as you ding! Oh boy...
Noooo!!!!!!!!!!! I love tanking frost!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm sure these are going to change a lot. I mean, they have to... right?
Every single one of those models use, again, already existing animations.
Would it fucking kill them to do at least one new animation every once in a while?
Didn't Blizz say they didn't want to give Felguard to demo early?
I disagree with your tone, but I agree with your points. The new design solves a lot of issues, but not all. I think that they'd be better off adding a 4th generic tree with utility talents that any specialization could take. You could even just copy talents from other classes if they fit appropriately i.e. buff to STA, Mana or CC reduction, speed boosts etc. Blizzard keeps fighting talent overlap when they really don't need to.
Also, in my experience, I've found that it takes about 4-6 months to fix non-game breaking bugs and between 2 and 3 years to address current design problems in the game (look how long it took to iterate through all the meeting stone design problems). In the end, I would expect the new talent design to stick though, so if it's really a deal breaker, people should quit and find another game to play.
yep, seems like the one hand doesn't know what the other does or says

It's Ahn'qiraj. It would be interesting to know, what you'll find if you fly into this outside instaces like ZG,AQ or ZF. An empty zone? Mobs?
you can tell on the Tol'vir that those are masks because there is a face clipping through. The model is by no means complete, the mask will probably be brought down and moved forward
You're probably right, cogzwell. If you look closely you can see that their ankleguards are just floating there in space, as well as their lower back armor, which is hovering slightly over where it would normally go. Blizzard probably hasn't properly aligned the armor attachments yet, is all.
Any idea what that weird thing off the coast of Dun Morogh is?
I liked the new talents a lot. A little more work there, and it will be awesome. Can't wait for cata to come!

drop the 31pt talent trees idea. Btw. in vanilla wow we had 51 talent points but in cataclysm only 41, wtf ?
Well, I haven't seen the playerbase increasing in the past 2 years.
I remember them announce stuff like "we hit 9 million players" and "10 million players" in a short time but now for more than 2 years it has been just still because there are a lot of people leaving, faking the records of active accounts.
I don't think they are making more money with such changes like announcing 31 point talent trees.
Of course stuff like expansions bring new players for a moment(such as me) but that is not permanent.
They are foolishly trying to hold on to players with empty promises of new content via every patch that pops in an average of every 2 months.
People keep falling for it since they don't realize that to kill a boss like Lich King they already paid for that 1 year ago when they bought the expansion.
That's what WOTLK was all about, right?
Killing Arthas.
Blizzard is just denying the inevitable.
Same will happen with Cataclysm, they don't want to allow players finish the game "too fast" so they will give the boss after... 1 year of the release.
Too bad I'm not around to see it and this is for two reasons: I'm not a hard core raider and I don't see a reason to wait 1 year to fight some piece of data for some pixels.
I play(ed) the game because I enjoyed to play it, not because I was promised something.
Then they went and killed all I loved of only to satisfy the tremendous amount of QQ made by noobs who hadn't figured out why they were below the par with the purple players so blizzard made welfare epics and other bad changes to the game.
Not as simple as that but something like it.
