Today’s update supposedly fixed the herbalism bug; but it added a bunch of new ones. Considering the state of the pre-patch, is it possible for MoP to be ready to launch in 13 days?
Was anyone doing any actual testing in the late stages of the MoP PTR or were they just goofing off?
Fixes causing new bugs which probably won’t be fixed until next week doesn’t leave a lot of room for a playable launch in less than 2 weeks, does it?
The game is bot and gdkp infested, unless you enjoy buying gold at a premium price because of bots farming content 24/7 has artificially inflated all prices, partially due to players that have been brainwashed into thinking GDKP is normal and spending large amounts of gold on items is healthy for the game and community, by all means it’s your cup of tea.
The bots are prevalent because Blizzard no longer employs a large staff of GMs to monitor such behavior and to respond to reports like they did in vanilla and the first couple of expansions.
I don’t give a crap about GDKP because it is now and has always been a scam. Those who use it should be banned along with the bots, but won’t be because there are not any GMs to do it.
Who knows. once 90% of the server hits JF anything could happen.
like well… rare campers, node campers, pet campers, AH mains buying all the cheap stuff… half a day to complete kills quests…
it’ll be fine…
I wish you weren’t correct, defining “fine” as hair on fire WTF is happening.
It should be fine come WoD classic where Garrisons finally make gold pointless and it simply becomes a goal to save as much money to buy the AH mount come BFA classic.
That’s a good point; but will there be enough player base still on this classic path to convince Blizz to continue on into WoD?
Do we have any known list of new bugs (preferably with steps to reproduce)?
I guarantee that garrison gold will be nerfed hard come WoD classic lol
If the care (or lack thereof) for an active expansion was enough to deter enough people from the game to make the next expansion unprofitable, we wouldn’t be gearing up for Pandaria now
Blizzard doesn’t ban gdkp players because they make a profit from it as well, not because there isn’t any GMs.
We’ve done this since vanilla 2004.
Ever heard of the auction house?
Especially since GDKP has been around since original TBC.
Vanilla 2004 is not tbc.
Do some research.
Some of the attraction of gdkp is share of the pot and then using that to dominate the AH, all while they blame bots and blizzard for high prices.
its a joke
Quite aware, I was agreeing with your post that large amounts of gold have been spent since the start of the game, I just used TBC as my example. Drop the ego thanks.
Can you explain why SOD prices were incredibly high on the AH without gdkp in it since phase 1? Because the botting problem was still just as bad in SOD after gdkp was gone, so I would kinda correlate that with botting being the problem not gdkp.
SoD was a freak, completely different market place
try again
Anniversary has a massive amount of bots and gold buying on it with no gdkp how about that one.
If I did that we’d end up with the biggest earthquake the world has ever seen.
