Soar still nerfed, but Blizzard changed their story

Community General Discussion

Now they’re citing “Internal testers” as feeling it was just as fun 30% slower despite all of their actual testers telling them otherwise.

Blizzard is back to the same old tricks, ignoring overwhelming feedback and supporting the decisions of “Internal” groups who don’t even play the game. They didn’t learn a thing from the failure of Shadowlands.

So you are mad they are listening to testers playing alpha and not GD not playing the alpha?

Isn’t it still, like, super fast?

Anyone who never tried the first version won’t even know the difference. I thought everyone was supposed to be mad about the cooldown, not the speed reduction. I can’t keep up with the rage. :weary:

what they wanted was 910% speed everywhere with no cooldown at all, instead they got cooldown reduction after a speed nerf. And honestly I agree with Argadar I’m loving the GD anger and something they are being told is bad.

We’re all mad that they ignored testers and listened to an “internal” team of non-players.

Well internal testers are Blizz members. And alpha testers have talked about how it’s not a good change.

Almost every tester hated the change but some “internal” people that Blizzard hired, people who have never played WoW, told them that they didn’t care about the nerf.

So clearly every single tester and paying customer is wrong.

Ofc it got nerfed. It was never meant to replace regular mount flying. I’m glad they nerfed it because now it’s normal.

You can’t be serious. It didn’t replace flying, it was a fast downward glide that now moves slower than flying and only makes it about 300 yards before crashing. It can’t go forward or up or to the side, it can’t hover, it can’t replace flying. It was never as fast as flying.

People are looking at some arbitrary number of 930% and deciding that since 930 is a big number it must outperform flying but that isn’t the case, it never was the case.

I watched a video of before and after nerf of a guy ‘downward gliding’ the entire alliance tunnel system. No need for nerfs at all. Working as intended.

That’s a load of bull, you’re mad because your stupid uwu dragon got nerfed.

I 've seen the video, the nerfed version is extremely slow, like 30 seconds behind in a just over minute track. It was posted by Liquid’s Max.

People still complaining about dracthyr supersonic flying racial on a 3min cooldown.

Meanwhile, ztroll glide is still a 15min cd for…reasons?
