So, maybe, at least they’re trying. Also – he stressed over and over how everyone would get to interact with Arthas, and they learned from their mistakes given TBC Illidan’s inaccessibility for most.

I’m not hugely bothered by missing out on raid content, when faced with the prospect of more gameplay. I enjoy raiding, but I also like the solo game.

that’s pathetic… and where on earth will the story go after this? Killing the old gods in the Emerald Dream?

And Blizzard havnt even worked out class balancing in TBC – what happened to free content?

I’m still unsure how inscription will make sense. I’m just having difficulty imagining what the gathering profession would be or the mechanics of it. Being able to add extra damage, less threat, shorter cast times, etc. it just seems extremely difficult to balance.

– they have yet to announce a release date.

– that was an in-game movie, so while the areas might be sketched out I doubt they are even close to creating ALL the hero classes. There would need to be vaible options for most of the play style roles in the game.

– my hunch is to target a realse close to a huge holiday. End of the year seems too close to me; which stinks like may/june at least.

– new professions, class, and gear, means new graphics, and that takes ages.

– I love leveling as much as raiding, so getting to 80 will be good. BC had plenty of content for everyone to get to 70, which is a step in the right direction.

Nope, they confirmed that they were sticking with 25-mans. They’re “Very pleased” with how that’s going. It’s all in the FAQ.

I don’t want to go through more guild restructuring other than the amount that occurs due to leveling differences.

Read the faq. That’s not how they are planned ot work at all.

According to the Blizzard FAQ, You level your main to 80 you then do a quest that unlocks a Hero Class (the DK being the only option at this point for ALL classes) which you then roll and it will start at either level 60 or 70. You then have to turn around and level it to 80.

The way you describe it is the way it SHOULD work, but thats not the way it is.

The WoW devteam must be a stressful place. I also read they have a team reworking the 1-60 part (tutorial) of the game. That, and working on balancing the current contant, and another team working on the 51-point talent trees coming up. Makes for a good example on the hardships of large scale software design really.
