    NOICE! PTR 9.1.5 Development Notes It's a good start, but I still don't feel safe playing this game. It feels like I'm being raped every time I login.

    It's the usual "ok fine we're making obvious changes, but we still have to let you know that we were right all along." It's pretty clear that lessons have not been learned, and we're gonna see the same bullshit repeat itself in 9.2 and 10.0. Unfortunately for them, they've alienated their...

    Blizzard dies and Bobby rides

    Yeah, one of the original WoW level designers (he did Uldaman/Scholomance and forgot what else) was in my EQ Test Server guild and gave me a F&F Alpha invite sometime in 2003. This was before the original talent system was added; they had "skill points" you could grind infinitely to level up...

    Heh, Wow doesn't suck because they are creeping on their new blue hair hires. Sure that's a small part of it, but the main reason it sucks is because it's a soulless metric grind now with systems designed to drag out your playtime as long as possible.

    Yup, I mean people were leaving in droves even before this lawsuit came to light. 9.1 was a huge turd and 9.2 was probably 8 months away even without the lawsuit happening. Now 9.2 is probably a year (at minimum) away and will also be a huge turd.

    Confirmed by the picture that guy is holding: white males are going to be removed from the game. White females will still be allowed, but their hair color will be limited to blue or purple.

    A good question would be, who in management didn't know? For fucks sake, employees were doing drunken cube crawls under womens desks and playing Call of Duty all fucking day, what kind of manager doesn't notice this? No wonder they aren't getting any work done. But the "players are definitely...

    Don't have her do retail if your goal is to get her to learn to group with people. I'ts a toxic cesspool right now where she'll get berated if she's not the right class/spec/talents/covenant/conduits/etc. Also the cross server shit and gogogo mentality design isn't very conductive to making...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    $80/day for a 16hr shift. He's a true shitter making $5/hr camping this shit. As much fun as it sounds playing video games for a living, you could pull like 3x per hour working a Walmart cashier shift or something.

    Yeah, the "race" is a bit of bullshit to begin with because you know it's tuned way too hard and they'll gradually dial it down to allow Echo/Limit to get past whatever they're stuck on. Also, Ion should probably see a doctor soon because I'm sure he's had an erection lasting *way* longer than...

    I can tell you why (disclaimer: I'm not subbed and don't really give a shit, but here's why) Besides a couple of Alliance heavy outliers (like Incendius that I'm on) and balanced servers (like Whitemane), most of the PvP servers are Horde heavy or dominated. This doesn't just affect open...

    This is probably the article you read: The Mud Whimping Guidebook Page -Ruin your game by nerfing or wimping players and yeah, it's very relevant to the current WoW dev team.

    Honestly this is the root of their design problems. They view anything outside of their intended design philosophy as "degenerative gameplay" and are control freaks about it. Exhibit A: this was stealth nerfed in 9.1 after like a decade of it being the same, probably because it probably gives...

    It looks like the FF14 guys are having so much fun. Reminds me of the old Blizzcons when they were passionate about the game. Imagine Ion, Lore and J. Allen Brack up on stage trying to dance like that lol. I unsubbed 3-4 months ago and if I come back at all for 9.1 it will be in November when...

    They certainly aren't going to develop any new content, but you can bet your ass with them hiring Holly and their recent poll that they are going to release new "fresh" classic servers in the future.They will be chock full of $$ shortcuts like bags, level boots, epic mount boosts and so on...

    I didn't know they nerfed them in classic zones, but they're definitely a thing in the TBC zones. There's a handful of elite quests in each TBC zone that you're not soloing unless you're leveling in Naxx gear or are a pet class like Hunter.

    Started this last night, got to about 61.5 tonight. We're on a PvP server that is 99% A:H but I did see a few brave Horde souls out questing. I remember how shitty it was in P2 Classic when it was 99% H:A so I /wave at them and let them be to quest in peace. Unless I saw them mount up on that...

    We're never going to get a WoW 2 or really anything of value going forward as long as J. Allen and Ion are running the show. We've seen their shitshow for the past couple xpacs and all you can expect in future patches/xpacs is carefully metered "engagement" content based on...

    They are probably already working on the next WoW expansion. They're going to push out 9.2 in like December and abandon this one.

    I unsubbed around two months ago, turns out you don't need an active sub to play on PTR so I've been playing the 9.1 content for a couple weeks. I haven't seen anything yet that makes me want to renew my sub. The world content isn't bad, lots of new cinematics and story. Being able to mount...

    Oh I agree, I'm really just more amused by this fix than anything. Like they could've just increased anima drops across the board or increased the value of the tokens. But instead, as usual, they had to make a new "system" for it that's some kind of half-ass compromise. (p.s. it's not account...

    I think you're missing the point. I'm sure they have metrics that show "MOST PVP PARTICIPATION EVER!!!1!" but that doesn't mean all these players actually like doing it. In fact their "metrics" should show the opposite - that there's a huge drop off in participation as soon as people get the...

    I hate to pile on, but yea I slogged through a week or two of BGs to fill slots that the covenant didn't cover. The second I finished upgrading my last piece I never set foot in there again. Crossover from the Classic thread, but this makes me wonder if this is the reason they're dragging...
