Patch 6.2 - Felsteel Annihilator and Diretusk Hellboar, Blue Tweets, Tracer Gameplay

[Stellan]

Wow, a sky golem re-skin. Gotta get dat mount...not

And it FLIES! LMAO!!

[shats]

Why is the mount all tweaky and vibrating like the sky golem? The sky golem is an engineering mount made by goblins/gnomes and powered by machinery. This one looks to be powered by fel energy and held together by magic. This is a lazy reuse of an existing mount from last expac.

[Incarnia]

Seriously they still haven't fixed the running animation for the boars yet, are they fucking retarded?

One really do wonder...... If you ask me, pretty much all WoD model mounts got crappy running animations.... Boars are just the worst. It is so bad that I seriously question if anyone of them actually have seen an animal move even once in their entire life.

[Deleted]

At least we had 2 mounts, matter re-skin or not.
Think blizzard overshot themselves a bit?

[Deleted]

God damn Blizzard release it already. It looks so polished and playable.

And it will be boring after two weeks.

[Phuongvi]

The Annihilator looks cools
But wtf is that shitty hellboar ? They are really putting ugly shit in this expansion

Meanwhile in the Blizzard store ........

[Stacie]

Why bother making it fly :S kind of pointless now right? I guess its because its an old model but still its like a kick in the face giving a flying mount that you rarely get to fly.

[Bluesftw]

those boars mounts on direhorn skeletons... how could anyone with eyes let this happen...?

[Baneleaf]

God damn Blizzard release it already. It looks so polished and playable.

There are other releases over the next few weeks so dont look for 6.2 until mid June at the earliest.

That Tracer video has me thinking I'm gonna hate playing vs Tracers : /

[Buu]

MMO Designer: What exactly do you want? Every player: TO ANNOY OTHER PEOPLE LOL (Muffinus)

And that's the history on WoD development. They chose to hear THAT KIND of people, and the game is designed towards them.

Yeah Tracer definitely is overpowered as fuck.

[Super Kami Dende]

The problem here is that they focus on WoW ONLY. Why call it a "MMO" website while they focus only on one game? And don't say "but they have forum pages from other games bla bla bla"....2/3 of forums are about WoW. the rest are off topic and other MMOs or MOBAs.

I made a mistake. They shouldn't change it to "WoW-Champion" but to "Blizzard-Champion".

Because WoW is the Champion of all MMO's. Meaning it is the MMO-Champion.

That Mount looks sick, I love Sky Golem but Reaver looks even better.

Nope, they were too busy drinking, raiding, and complaining how ALTs ruin the immersion of a ROLE-PLAYING game.

[Wingwraith]

Oh look, another flying mount for a game without flying.

[valax]

wonderful how the reward for everything in this game is always a mount... (ugly too)

[Rude Hero]

I am very, very surprised that they're reusing/showcasing the boar model in the next patch without fixing it.

They must know that the feedback for it is terrible...

FTFY. I wonder when we're going to get new mount models in-game that aren't buggy and don't have to be bought on the cash-shop.

It shows how much they care about this expansion and/or WoW in general.+

[Rivin]

Direhorn animations.

Which is just weird since they have perfectly acceptable, if not straight-up good boar animations for their actual boar mobs. They have an adorable run animation already, as ungainly as a hell-pig should be, and I'd proudly ride a mighty hog running so derpily... but no. We have to get the ground-humping Direhorn animations, totally inappropriate for something without a massive tail.

The problem is that it's an NPC model skeleton, not a mount skeleton. It's the same reason they used the terrible old worg mount skeleton for the new Draenor wolves, even though the Draenor wolf NPCs have way better animations. The skeleton needs attachment points for riders and whatever else a mount needs that the NPC doesn't (/mountspecial animations, maybe?).

I don't know how much work adding those attachment points to skeletons would be, but obviously Blizzard thought it wasn't worth the time. Even though they really should've done it anyway. >.>

I agree. I remember a time not too long away in which video game companies cared about the quality of their product and it wasn't all about appeasing the shareholders and lining your pockets.
