Sadly, so i hear.
Classic was obvious, but i heard tbc was kind of ruined also, i was like why?
Wonder when northrend will get ruined?
Probably in shadowlands
I think that the AV related topics would be proving you 100% correct at the moment on this matter.
Are you for real? First off the quote was taken out of a context.
Of course it looks silly like this on it’s own.
I don’t want TBC
I would be skeptical of a Classic+
Withstanding this I think Classic+ is the way to go.
BEING SKEPTICAL OF CLASSIC PLUS DOES NOT EQUAL DON’T WANT CLASSIC PLUS.
If only I were mad.
In a situation where A, B, C, and D are all on the table, the statement “I don’t want A and I’m highly skeptical of B” does logically imply that the speaker wants C or D, and thus it is puzzling if the speaker follows that up with “I think B is the only option.” It would have saved you a little time and a lot of apparent frustration if you’d just initially replied to me with this line:
(capslock optional) instead of trying to score points somehow.

You’d be wrong, because whatever “Classic+” even is, no one can agreed on. Knowing that, there will likely be a large percentage of people that will absolutely HATE whatever that is.
I don’t think that will work out the way you think it will.

Frag off. Vanilla is a stepping stone to the expansions I actually liked: TBC and WotLK.

The problem here is not every paragraph is a premise based argument, or should be broken down in to one. If you took practical reasoning 101, you’d know that from the text book exercises. They don’t all fit nicely in to syllogism. Or at least rudimentary syllogism.
My mistake was not including the word “withstanding.”
No actually, my mistake was this forum LOL
I ruled out TBC. I didn’t rule out classic+, so I don’t really understand what’s so difficult or confusing here. It looks more like a failure to read again before responding. I used appropriate qualifiers.
They wont do classic+ because that would be an active design phase in a game that is in maintenance mode.
Even if they SHELLS of the thing are there, not necessarily does that mean the entire portion of the content is there. Merely the outside design aspects and including things like dungeons - raids - and other things will require further design, testing, and application beyond just “plug server in. Unleash patched timegate”
Classic+ is LESS likely to happen than TBC because the TBC-Classic would be the same thing as regular classic where there is no active design phase but just a restructuring of the code to fit the new 7.0+ framework that was implemented and the code needs to plug into.
And Having the same basic design model as vanilla, will be a lot more simple to edit and insert into the new frame because they already know where they need to change it and how to do it.

I agree with you, but some people believe a classic+ may happen in order to minimize the creation a bunch of fractured games.
I’d rather a classic plus even if it meant accurately scaling TBC in to lvl 60 Classic. T3 and pre-raid TBC gear were to an extent on par with each other.
More than anything I’m just perplexed with the forum fervor for TBC and Wrath. For many of us Classic is a last hurrah.
T3 was equiv to mid 60’s blues.
If somebody was replacing T3 content with greens they were dumb AF XD
I used redemption set on my paladin until I started doing the Auchindoun dungeons
I think we’ll see TBC Classic announced at this years Blizzcon so they can push it out next year after Shadowlands has had sometime to exist. The cycle will become, Expansion for Retail, Classic Game Release, Expansion, Classic Game release at least for a little while. Past Wrath it’s up in the air if they will continue. I hope they do, but they might not.
Also, they would be separate games. They wouldn’t replace Classic with it.

Nice bait thread.
I too hope BC comes, if for nothing else I get to bring out my Mace HARP Rogue and start smacking people to oblivion xD
Also RED KITTY used to put fear in me xD
Meh, nothing says ‘fear’ like questing in Hellfire, and then you hear it. That sound. The roar of a diabolic machine intent on ending all that is good in the world. And OH GOD, HOW CAN SOMETHING SO BIG MOVE SO FAST?!?!
And then you’re back to the graveyard, another victim of the Fel Reaver’s passing.

Tbc classic confirmed? No.
Would Activision love to just flip a switch, use literaly 3 hours of 1 dev’s afternoon and keep all the classic people subscribed in 12 to 18 months for another 24 months? Yes.
Are we getting tbc classic? I’d bet top dollar on it.

Yeah this is almost certainly the majority of the answer. Eventually it will make financial sense to do so. A classic TBC would be orders of magnitude easier than classic was to develop and launch, because so much of the leg work is done. If they can make a reasonable return off it, they’ll do it. Id be surprised if they did it in a timeline with current classic though, by which I mean I would expect to see it towards the end of Shadowlands’ run, and not necessarily dependent on where classic is at in progression or after any set time period after Naxx
And what does that mean exactly?
Everyone will give a slightly different answer. A lot of people would disagree with whatever they did, and the bottom line is the game would no longer be what it was meant to be in the first place. It would no longer be what we asked for.
No, Classic+ would be an entirely different game. If you want content beyond Naxx then ask for a different game. Kel’thuzad is the final boss.
Yes and these were developed in TBC at the earliest. Getting a lvl60 version of Black Morass or just skipping all of that entirely for something new (but not since Retail has used CoT for a ton of things) would require a more significant Dev team to sit down and say “so we have these assets, how can we do it better?”
I really don’t trust that in the slightest.
Untrue.
You can start questing in Outlands at lvl 58.
