You’re probably reading too much into it. They would have announced something if we were getting anything playable.

Ha ha ha ha, I’m already logged in with the new Classic patch, gaise. Had forgotten how tough the Echo Isles mobs are. Also great to see the talent trees again.

There will be no patch for Classic, it will be a separate client.

Probably 8.1.5

Not sure if serious…

I would bet money that it’s the same client because they want to “entice” classic players to try bfa, so they’re going to want those classic servers right there on the server list with retail servers. Especially if they’re looking toward the future and other expansion servers.

It won’t be the same client.

They’re using 7.3.5 for Classic. It can’t be the same client.

It will be the same client and will force BfA to use a new client to avoid our Vanilla code. Muahaha.

That’s dumb, and the whole process around actually implementing that from a developers perspective is dumb.

We already know it’s not the same client…so you’ve lost that bet.

The demo was a completely separate install. Now, could that change? No.

i would poop my pants in joy :poop: …then throw it at Bobby Kotick, just for sh*ts and giggles :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

The wow client was moved into a _retail subdirectory, so probably a second client…

MY LAUNCHER IS PATCHING TOO WHAT’S HAPPENING?! BETA!? PLEASE!? Maybe???

Not even remotely.

Zandalari and Kul Tirans will be playable next week. That’s probably all it is.

Will it be a new/separate button in the BattleNet launcher, or a dropdown menu like you do for Beta in the existing WoW launcher, or part of the “choose realm” thingy in the character loading screen?

I already have a button on the BNet launcher for a game that launches in December (Warcraft III Reforged) because I pre-ordered it, so it’s not too soon for them to add a non-functional launcher button if that’s what they’ll end up doing!
