Anyone can be infected. That’s what makes this different and special.
This makes zero sense. I’m not special. I’ll be a part of the world which will include the event. I don’t think I’m some special little guy that thinks the game revolves around him.
You’re not making the case you think you are. I’ve proposed solutions that encourage player curiosity. If a player feels overwhelmed, they can take a break and get something else done in the game without having to worry about the event.
Why is it so hard to say ‘I don’t want to be ganked.’ That’s why I turned off War Mode. Why is my death so integral to your fun?
Not everything should be opt in. It adds to the story that ghouls are killing everyone. Just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean it’s bad or needs to be changed. Hell I don’t like LFR but I’m not here crying about it.
OK, so opting out means ‘oh crap, the invasion happened. I’d better check out Orgrimmar and see how things are doing’ Proceed to post-invasion gameplay.
why should the game be changed to suit you, when you have the option to completely avoid putting yourself in a situation which you think you may not like?
Here is what will happen with your solution. Since people have an option to opt out then you will have people opt out because they either do not like the invasions or are tired of them and want to not be bothered. Meanwhile in the invasion shards cities will either overrun and wont have enough players to fend it off or it will die off entirely making invasions non existent. It needs a motivation for people to be like “I have had enough and want to be left alone. Let me make a group and scrub the city so I can do what I need to do in town”.
I thought the event was fun? Why are people opting out of fun?
Firstly, this’ll be my second Scourge Invasion. My first was the Wrath event and I hated it then.
Second, why am I forced against my will into a situation that would in any normal instance be entirely avoidable with the click of a button? And bear in mind, I want PvP and PvE to have a hard separation so you can level and gear exclusively in either.
You’re simply unreasonable at this point. You just want to hold players hostage to an event, that’s it. Just admit it, you want gank victims, and you’re scared once people realize how nonsense the zombies are and how stupid the capital situation is that people will go ‘right, enough of that, let’s move on’.
