9.1.5 - Isnt even an update. This is sad

Community General Discussion

Just when you thought they couldnt do enough for the next content update here is what we got.

  1. Our wish list of everything we have been asking for since beta that should have come in weekly easy to perform hotfixes.

  2. No new story quest lines.

  3. A time walking event that we will only see once every 18 weeks and that isnt even live right now. Cant wait to see how bad the tuning is for this.

  4. Censorship or removal of existing game content.

What took you guys so long to perform this update? Same old content same old reason not to play … cool I can level 2 more covenants thats about it. GG blizzard not cool not what I pay your team a monthly subscription to do.

My hopes were seriously dashed when someone told me here earlier today that it wouldn’t be until December 7th. Le sigh.

Try to think of it as a “Relaunch” of Shadowlands. How it should have been.

With some cheap customization options. Barely any actual additions. Mostly things that should’ve been ingame already.

On top of that, we have Void Elves getting the middle finger again because, well, the entire race is a middle finger to the Alliance. They handled all options to Blood Elves, including blue eyes, while Void Elves won’t even get hairstyles.

There’s a long list of issues that haven’t been addressed on many other subjects, yet, Blizzard calls this “content.”

I read through the whole thing twice, and tbh, I was pretty satisfied at the changes. Pretty much what Bgored said.

It’s a start. It’s not everything. But they’re listening.

Would you rather they never make the changes at all and just double down? Late is better than never

A .5 patch was never gonna add new story. That’s not what Blizzard has ever used .5 patches for.

This is also a very heavily asked for piece of content.

IMO, It’s honestly better that there’s a gap so people can level and gear up characters, but I guess that’s debatable

A private company changing their private product however they see fit is not censorship

There’s been this big pandemic going on, and then there was this major law suit going on.

Turns out that puts a dent in production. Who knew?

You don’t pay them to make content. You pay them to access their product. That’s it. It’s also like 50 cents a day. You’re not special.

OP you must be new to the game .

If not then when hasn’t a X.1.5 or any other X.X.5 patch been anything more then a QoL/Tuning patch .

Sadly they left some things in.

It’s called a content patch… except there’s no actual new content :laughing:

On the plus side, Comp Stomp is up, so enjoy the free honor I guess?

Being cool is not something Blizzard cares about.

Now that is something Blizzard cares about.

lol what are you basing this claim on?

No where was it ever called a content patch .

Content patches are the .0 ,.1 , .2 ,.3 et cetera patches the .x.5 are tuning and QoL patches which this is .

Why did you delete it? It was so well written.

If the next content patch (9.2) comes out soon (within the next 2 months), I’ll give them a pass.

If we don’t get 9.2 until Feb 2022 or later, then this has been a total disaster of an expansion imo.

It’s absolutely stupid to keep content away from the players.

We want all dungeons back in the LFG tool.

We want all dungeons available per expansions’ time walking event.

We need more PvE content that’s not necessarily a grind so that we have something to do before the next patch/raid hits.

We had things like the Argent Tournament in the past. It may have not been perfect–but it was a silly & fun semi-catch up mechanic that players could participate in.

Instead, we get stuff like Torghast and Korithia–which is a Diablo-clone but with WoW’s name on it.

I don’t want zones full of world rares that are up for 30 seconds, anymore. RNG is not content.

I want Operation Gnomeregan and the MoP cloak quest line back in the game. At least–that’s more meaningful content than the crap we have now.

I want zones full of stories, full of side activities, full of hidden secrets. Not this buy a map to reveal all treasure chest crap. It’s crap.

The content we have now is not “rewarding,” as it was in the past.

Argent Tournament–pets, mount, catch up gear.

Miscellaneous rep grinds with fun quests-enchants, gear, etc.

I want to explore new areas and be rewarded for my discovery.

Not be spoon fed all these treasure chests on a map and spend 15 minutes trying to find the single branch I need to climb to get it.

That’s not content. That’s tedium.

if i were in charge i would simply write code to fix the problems with the game

edit: computer code, that is. good code with no bugs. it’s not hard. i don’t know why developers write buggy code. why not simply write good code instead?
