Hahahahah
Have guys here that don’t know what are talking about.
“I want authenticity, so obviously a launch without testing nothing will be the best choice”
(???)
Yup. They need to get play testers to verify everything works. Or as close to everything as they can get. Just testing 1 to 20 does nothing.
That said, they can do a limited run beta and give people premade characters for a lot of that testing.
Although a high leveled character testing some of the low-leveled quests could find some amusing bugs that wouldn’t be an issue for appropriately leveled characters. I actually had the problem re-obtaining my Kalimdor Loremastery post cataclysm in the Barrens, some of the quest mobs died too quickly for me to do what the quest wanted. Nothing like having to unequip most of your gear and start punching quest mobs, as a clothy, in order to complete a quest. No idea how an actual melee class would cope with that particular quest while overleveled.
There is a toy you can buy now - Foam Sword, I think it is - that will knock a trivial enemy down to 1 hp, or something like that.
ROFL, yep no beta needed.
Forget about a summer release.
push it to 2020.
A two week open beta would probably be good for stress testing.
I am guessing actibilzz will do a PTR with automated data analysis. Sorta demo 2.0.
I hope they do a brief beta though to solicit feedback from human players.
Except what you said isn’t true and nor does a statement being true mean it cannot be rude. By all means, continue to be condescending while being incorrect. You only look more of a fool.
Also yikes “new guy”? I may have only starting actively posting on the forums in ~2011 but that was still a few years ago.
Says the guy with 3 posts since the forum change-over last fall. 2 of them in this discussion.

Yep. Does that change when I started actively posting or somehow invalidate my other several thousand posts over the years? It’s forum posting… It doesn’t even matter. Lol.
LOL. Ok new guy. I see you put a lot of thought into your troll reply, but here on the classic forum we don’t hand out participation trophies. What I said was most certainly true, no matter how much you wish it wasn’t. But you do you.

too late… Classic is their last chance, for many.
If they are confident with their backporting Im all for no beta but if not 100% do a small 2-4 week beta to test it
Your problem has to do with you, not the game.
And yes, there WILL be a Beta. Blizzard is smarter then that.
While many of the Classic fans in this subforum may feel that way, I doubt Blizzard does. I expect they take a longer view and see the future of their company as riding on more than just one game.
I agree no beta. Just release it ASAP and fix whatever bugs as we go. At vanilla leveling rates, it will take a long time to get to 60. The amount of people who would probably be willing to beta test through level 60 on a 15 year old game only to have it completely reset and do it all again? Probably be pretty small.

I think Heroes of the Storm would have stayed a most excellent product if OverWatch was never added to it.
Plus they changed up my favorite heroes too much, that was nail in the coffin for me.
Legacy of the Void is too different from the traditional RTS. The starting is too fast.
Their Warcraft remakes are the only thing they have going for them. IMO
