It was never going to happen. It was on the experimental card just to be something the players would get to try out.
People wanted to see some of the things that Blizzard are trying out internally that never make it to the live game and now with the experimental card people can.
Iâm hoping for an arcade card to show up every now and then. That I think is the right place for that. A lot of fun, but not the right direction for ow
No he would not. He said they were putting it on the card but not rolling it out. That they tested it internally but decided not to push it live. So basically Jeff Kaplan would agree with everything I said.
I read every single word said and watched every video. Apparently you were the one who did not pay attention. I am literally quoting when he talked about putting it up for the devs AND when he rolled it out onto the experimental card. They did NOT put it on the experimental card with the intention of making it go live. They put it on their so we could see what they were trying out. He said this going in that it would not go live.
I get it if you do not pay attention you could miss that but that is exactly how it went.
Even before that, when it was put up we were told that it was not put up with the intent of going live but just with the intent of testing it for a few days. Even when talking about it when it was developer only he talked about how polarizing it was and how it was not something they were going to do at this time. So they had decided NOT to go live with it before it ever hit the experimental card.
He basically just did not read Jeffâs posts on this topic and is now pretending he did because he got called out for being completely wrong
Before that there was clear ambivalence. Furthermore, the experiment was different from what Kaplan at that point stated they were testing internally. Off tanks were attempted to be made into main tanks as opposed to DPS. They clearly kept working on 1-3-2. In the write-up for the experiment Kaplan indicated work will continue and quite obviously conveyed the developers hadnât made their minds up on the fate of the experiment before player feedback in his forum posts.
And youâre clearly biased if youâre willfully not reading between the lines. He was basically saying unless there was some miraculous Hallelujah moment with 1-3-2 and the community, which there wasnât, it wasnât going live.
