I think implementing an appearance-tab like this won't accomplish diversity. Every class will take 1-2 old sets and wear them, so people who don't change their armor will be more different from each other than all the T2-rogues und T6-warlocks.

Alread played games that allowed that... believe me, it's totally crap, they're right in keeping plate as plate, cloth as cloth, etc.
And yes, they don't have resources into the wow team anymore, but it's didn't start with this xpac. Just think that the "less complicated" the game is, the "easier" it is to mantain with low resources.

I just feel sorry for the DK's that miss out on 6 tiers of options for armor. However.. Hell yes for Tier 6 Skyshatter set! Best armor in the game on a tauren.
Well...finally Deathwing then i can quit wow before next expansion
Wow. I'm impressed. This patch sounds promising. I screamed "HELL YES!" for the Armor Appearance change.
actually since it isnt on the ptr yet I'd consider all of this to be unfinished. meaning that pvp might get a lot more, or nothing at all. same for range. but as of right now all this is blizz unofficially announcing it. remember blizzaard the people who say one thing and do another.
Vanilla didn't have arena seasons, patches stayed for more time instead of 4-6months only. Same for TBC, except that it had arena in the middle of it's existence (promoting sunwell "tier").
WotLK was all about arena seasons, so the normal expansion life time didn't fit the arena season schedule, creating 4 tiers instead of the usual 3. Now they're probably set cataclysm to be exactly the same life time as 3 arena seasons, so, it's ending that fast.
But lets face one last true reason for such low lifetime. They earn tons of $$ with xpacs, not with content patches. The best thing to keep WoW in the news is releasing xpacs, since they change the game a lot (while content patches don't), keepping it on the news and in the consumers heads. Forums go crazy, fan sites go crazy, gaming sites go crazy... best thing ever to fight other games.
Last patch of the expac? Jesus that went fast..... underwhelming to say the least.
INB4 rogues running around with glaives
but yes, as a lock, I cannot wait for T5, and I have to say my interest in this game is waning and I am counting down the days till SWTOR UNLESS WoW really blows me away...like fo real, this re-hashed content has got to stop, re-hashed bosses have to stop.
I know, I am crazy, asking for something new, but if we could at least get Deathwing-Esque-Themed 5-mans (like someone said earlier with LK and those 5 mans) that would be cool, maybe help Neltharian in his human form collect the pieces for the dragon soul from the aspects in CoT or something.
Blizzard has laid out a path, they need to walk the straight line and give us, the players, the buyers, content that we can say we are happy to pay for. If I wanted to walk blindly around giving $15 to someone, I at least deserve a happy ending.

Own the armor isnt a bad idea, it makes so you will have to go to old dungeons to farm it, it isnt a big deal, most stuff can be easly 2 maned
hmm seems we got more conctent with wotlk, also goving 7 bosses with firelands and no more seperate 10/25 man made the content much smaller the last 4.3 better be more than 7 bosses in deathwing raid and filled with lore and a twist as so far cata has just lacked it all, else this expansion will be a failure, they scrapped abyssal maw raid and neptulon abducted by asumath gives a pretty big hole in that story, war of the ancients becomes maybe a 5 man is also kick in the groin as it could have been the most epic raid in this expansion like wotlks ulduar wich cata hasnt been close to, as for the transmogrif does it only work on armor? or can i as a rogue walk around with warglaives, but it also raises the question of later tiers will they be given the same amount of quality. maybe they rush it so rogues actually get the makeover they where supposed to get in cata.
Dam, I deleted all my T6 gear from my druid in WotLK... dam...

With some luck this means that this crappy expansion is ending soon, and since one developer said that their intention was to flip between one expansion to casual -> one expansion to elitists -> repeat, we will have some good content in the next one like we had in Wrath instead of this crap made to elitists (that arent even happy with it either).
Let the current normal raids PUGs come back.
