Well, I don’t know exactly what is going on but two days into this beta and I have not fully setup one toon yet. I was expecting I would go through the usual scenario when selecting a Pandarian…but no…I created an 85 and 90 lvl and a lvl 1 Pandarian was the first…how did that happen? Shouldn’t Pandarians start at a higher level? Constant crashes alt+tabbing to do research on the web and it kills the game. I noticed like their are no developers with the usual addons available. Certain things like getting my crazy arrow working. Nowhere to be found on Curseforge. Are the addon developers allowed into beta? If not, why not! I know Blizzard is taking an anti-addon approach now but WTH! If I can’t even setup all my spells and start the storyline…big problems!
Yes, addon devs are in the beta. No, not every single addon is in the curseforge “Mop Beta” section. You can copy over your current addon folder, see what works and what doesn’t, but anything in the live Cata version now will more than likely be updated over time. The “anti-addon” thing is a retail stance, and hasn’t been discussed in the lens of Classic yet. Even if it rolls into Classic, this is a long-term thing they’re going to do, and it more than likely will have minimal, if any, impact on MoP.
Pandaren start at level 1. Always have, and there’s no reason to expect it would be different this time around. Make a higher-level beta toon for testing if you want, but when this goes live it absolutely will be a level 1 start.
And yeah, Beta is Beta, not soft-launch. There will be problems, but that’s what you’re here to test and report on. The more you find and report, the better chance the live version will go smoothly.
Pandaren start at level 1. They always have
Maybe when MOP came out which I was not aware of…I’m use to creating a Pandaren and they start out at the beginning level for the expansion (like death knights) and you have to go through the beginning area. I only played shortley for Cata when it first came out and then didn’t return until Warlords of Draenor. Thank for the info!!! I did try the classic addons and was wondering if they were causing all the disconnects and crashing…unfortunately, I’ve just gone down to like a couple and out of those I’ve not been able to get my “ant trail” and “arrow” for navigation to work. Oh well! Any suggestions on another addon that might work…please let me know.
Pandaren is a race not a class you always start at lvl 1 no idea why blizzard even sends people like you invites you are clueless about everything in MoP as per your own words so what exactly can you test?
