Dragonflight in 2023 – The Road Ahead

Very nice, I love the part with the Gnome Paladins re-take Gnomeregan, making it a new capital city for the Alliance, really cool stuff.

Expansion’s last 2 years, not 1.

I do hope that the 10.1 changes include major changes to the way the Craft Order system “works”. Some of the Key Issues:

  • Supply exceeds demand - do some root-cause analysis on this, starting with “crafters more keen to use it than average players” and "lack of a tutorial quest, as pointed out in Beta, - current ones are bitty, fractured and not part of the main quest line like Dragon Riding, so players miss them or don’t read the text
  • No in-game method to locate crafters of X for personal orders. You can (just about) do it for Guild Orders, if you know there’s a Drop-down on the Roster tab of the Guild & Communities frame for “Professions” (under “Achievements”, top right). Trade chat is a wall of text as a result.
  • Public is OK for entry gear, but there’s so many crafts done levelling the profession, that it’s cheaper to buy from the AH than the complicated CO.
  • There’s no repeatable order type stuff for Public Orders as a result. You’ll get your Draconic Treatise etc from personal or guild orders.
  • Small servers suffer from lack of orders to level the craft. If you’re not in a raiding guild it’s almost impossible to get past L50-60.

Devs: feel free to contact me in-game (I play on EU) if you want more detailed feed back!

Excited with the coming content. But can we have BFA flying without PF ?

Thanks

Hopefully we don’t see 10.3 and instead they do 11.0… Keep it short and sweet…

Every time we get a .3 patch it just lags on and on, and people start wondering WHY are they waiting…

I encourage you to voice your support here:

:slight_smile:

You do realize that we’d still be waiting the same amount of time for the expansion, right? Just without the additional patch to tide us over? The expansion team and live teams are different. Giving the live team less to do isn’t necessarily going to mean that the expansion team is able to work more quickly.

Cross faction and cross server guilds, both mentioned by Ion as things they’re working on, seem to be missing from this roadmap. Are they off the table now?

I highly doubt that. We already received a “when, not if” confirmation it was coming. Why would they relitigate that?

Because features being presented as under active development simply being dropped without word, and questions about them being met with “We didn’t promise you anything”, is how Blizzard does things.

That just seems utterly paranoid to me, in this particular case.

How about some love for Mac users. Particularly with graphic performance.

Rmember when content releases had new dungeons?

… we are getting a new dungeon.

Thanks Holly - You have a great staff filled with talented and creative minds that put their passion and heart into their work and really made something great here. Congratulations to the entire project team and everyone that made such a great experience come to life. For Azeroth!

Looks like those features they “lied” about (e.g. poor/common quality items being moggable) weren’t lies after all.

Nice.

I have been trying to keep an open mind on DF (not getting super hyped or trashing it outright). No real issues so far and actually enjoying things. I did get over my dragonriding problems and still want my old mounts though. One thing that does seem (indirectly) promising is that Blizzard references Legion as having a good setup overall. I personally agree with this as I find Legion to be better than the much favored WoLK. It is also worth noting that (unless I missed it) Blizz did not reference BfA or SL as good models so there might be some recognition to popular opinion there.

And also just few hair colors for zandalari trolls in a mini-patch is meh, swaping hairstyles,beards and hair colors between races is easy win. U guys can do better, cmon.

The road looks perfect to me
