Classic wow should add fresh new content after vanilla instead of adding BC, wotlk

[Laxdaela-spinebreaker]

I’d like to see tmog added. But do it so it doesn’t ruin economy

Just the immersion of the game. Tmog was the second worst thing they added to the game after Raid Finder. If they do Tmog - it should stick to your local client only.

Why exactly is tmog such a bad thing?

Personally I’d like to see the classes updated so Palis can be more then just buff bots.

And this is exactly why ‘Classic+’ would be doomed to fail. People disregarding Classic as the rpg it is and just turn it into another mass homogenized raid simulator. If left up to the players they’d add every convenience imaginable. The community would be destroyed. Class strengths and weaknesses ironed out. The time commitment to reward ratio (example: the original honor system) removed.

It sickens me to even think about how Classic would be destroyed in the same way Vanilla was. Leave it alone! Classic exists to capture a specific time period in the game’s history. That’s it. That’s what many of us have fought for for years. Now that it’s being done people want to change it yet again? I just don’t understand that.

So I’ll say what I keep saying about these threads: go ask for WoW 2, because that’s what you really want.

Classic+ is a great idea.

[Musonius-gurubashi]

Of coursebthey have the data and of course they would use the data and parse it a million ways. If you have any doubt about that you are out of touch with modern times.

Nah, I want classic with the ability to tank without having to be a warrior. People want classic for different reasons. Some people want the game exactly as it was during that time, others are looking to recapture the feeling of downing Ony or Rag for the first time. BTW, I’m not sure what game you played, but Rading was pretty much all there was once you hit 60, unless you wanted to try and grind out GM/HWL.

dejavu…

Classic+ is like taking the original Mona Lisa and painting things into the background, but it’s okay because you stayed true to the time period and used the same color pallet. See how it’s received, there’s certain things you just don’t do. Respect the art, don’t touch it.

[Engel-kelthuzad]

I don’t trust current day Blizz to make new content that is faithful to Classic. If they did go the Classic+ route though, it needs to be optional, and on completely new servers. I do not want to be forced into it and the original Classic servers need to be preserved.

[Maxxanath-llane]

Separate TBC, Wrath servers are the way to go.

[Gizmø-firetree]

Most changes people would come up with for classic are bad.

But classic can be better with the rest, which are largely quantitative imo. A 45 second polymorph isn’t good for the game’s pvp. Ele could be made raid viable by tinkering with mana costs of lightning bolt. Enhancement could be less of a meme spec in pvp if stormstrike had a 10 second cooldown.

There’s things you can do to take what is already there and tweak it to encourage diversity without homogeneity. These changes don’t ruin classic by making it less of an RPG and more of an arcade-y, homogeneized game like it is today.

[Ilshenar-wyrmrest-accord]

Classic is going to be good because the original, vanilla release of WoW was designed by a good dev team

[Morano-aerie-peak]

I 100% agree with this and wish that EQ Live and p99 would do the same.

[Wehali-proudmoore]

It’s mostly those that prefer to gank, in my experience, that feel flying destroyed pvp. I remember some pretty epic fights around the pvp nodes in the zones that had them.

[Festukarg-wyrmrest-accord]

People who dont want this would rather retail improve i guess? But blizzard has done to much damage to it. Warmode, LFG, LFR, LFD, Flying, stupid pandas. All garbage. Can they really reverse all of that?

[Gwendall-cenarion-circle (Gwendall)]

Ill give you a 50% on that… Maybe 75% if we can get wrath with a promise of no LFD…

BC > Vanilla > Early Wrath > early cata > late wrath… There is my order of enjoyment of content I have played enough of.

nah, there are always way to improve upon something

[Selfabsorbed-draenor]

I’d rather have Classsic+ myself. But I am concered about any potential additional content not having the vanilla feel. Current devs don’t even consider social friction when designing content. Something vanilla took into heavy consideration. SO, yes I’d prefer more content, and I don’t want servers getting split up by expacs again, but if they couldn’t design content that was up to the vanilla standard I’d prefer they go the TBC route. At least TBC still had the classic style of content creation. Even if Flying and Split servers kinda started the downfall.

If that was true, you wouldn’t have ended up with palis wearing cloth.

[Selfabsorbed-draenor]

Pallys wore cloth when they wanted to be more caster, than fighter. Irrelevant arguement. Player choice is player choice. Devs have no control over that.

The looking for group tools are fine when restricted to your server.
