Kris Zierhut - “If our core value is [that] we want to get people into dungeons and go through content and play as much as they want, then OK we do want LFG”
Also Kris Zierhut - “The idea here is, if tanks and healers can get the consumables that they need to go to raid each week from going to dungeons, then they don’t need to go out in the world farming and there will be more tanks and healers in dungeon queues and everybody will have an easier time getting into a dungeon”
Literally 2 minutes apart…absolutely no consistency or reasoning. Do you want people to have an easier time getting into dungeons or not??
Lots of people in my guild are hyped for the Heroic and raid loot changes announced today. They’re also hyped for not having to mess around with Arena teams anymore.
Not every change has been bad. For a lot, A LOT of people, the game is going to be more enjoyable. If they went back on their RDF decision, I think people would actually recognize the other changes they’ve made that are actually good.
After ICC I want them to go back and add a heroic version of all the old raids starting at Molten Core and just update the gear stats/bonuses slightly etc… Make it 3ilvl above Heroic ICC and drag it out all the way up to Heroic Sunwell. Would give them a chance to add actual mechanics and such to old fights. Release them on a 3-4mo cycle.
Duh, none of the OG developers/ceo who created warcraft, are even at the company anymore, so of course the retail devs have hate for classic, their CEO has hate for all the 1999-2009 blizzard products in general, he is a weirdo.
Mike Morhime built an amazing company that is being destroyed, all the OG wow developers like god rob pardo are looking at this and shaking their head.
