Blizzard ent., please develop the game that I play and for which I pay a subscription, I’m not interested in your “popular” streamers and all this meaningless hype at all.
I don’t need your Plunderstorm, it would be better if you made 10.3 and started develop the game that I love, play and pay for.
And let the streamers play another individual games that you make for them and they will promote them and give a thumbs up.
Dear OP,
Please understand this game has many aspects to entertain all the players that pay a monthly subscription. Some of those aspects won’t appeal to you, but rest assured the money gathered from pvp players will go more toward pve as it has for years. The occasional PvP aspect is a good thing, even if you choose not to participate. Try to see the big picture when evaluating content.
Respectfully,
The voice of reason.
Plunderstorm isn’t in WoW, though. They should have put something in the actual game. I think that’s the biggest complaint I’ve seen. And WoW definitely needs more BGs.
I agree, taking players away from a current season was a really odd move. I have zero interest in what streamers want or what they do. Must be nice to get a whole side game that caters to a handful of the people that wanted it. Streamers have never influenced me on any level. In fact, streamers, in my op are why most games suck these days. Too much catering mot enough dislike buttons.
Season 4 is LITERALLY releasing in a few weeks. That’s what 10.2.6 was laying the groundwork for. Do you people seriously not read the patch notes or any news before you make these threads?
I am not a huge fan of Plunderstorm, probably because I’m so darn bad at it. lol.
There are aspects I like and some I don’t, but I think the important thing was it was something different for WoW. I’m ok with them trying different things from time to time to see what works and what doesn’t. It gives the game potential to grow and evolve.
Plunderstorm has nothing to do with streamers outside of Blizzard hosting an event with them to advertise it. Do you think rated arena PvP is a “side game that caters to a handful of people” just because the AWC exists?
Plunder storm is a fun thing they tossed in between their actual development points as per the roadmap.
We get something fun (although I get that not everyone’s going to like it) that didn’t affect the development timeline they laid out for us and people are losing their minds. I don’t get it.
The great idea, just add Pluderstorm every 1,2 patches… after 11.2, 12.1 and 13.0… and dream about next 3 x-packs, isn’t it? Living in dreams of the future, perfect!
Now that they’ve built the reusable “backbone” for it (term used by the dev in the video), yeah, we will probably get at least one plunderstorm even per x-pack now
So same amount of content, shorter x-packs, with at least one Plunderstorm each
