Stopping by to once again support unarmored mounts.
Personally speaking, the only mounts I think look 100% better than their unarmored counterparts are the Swift Mechanostriders. I greatly prefer the Ivory and Red Raptors to any of the armored versions.
You gonna dodge my question? Do you think that the authenticity of patch 1.12 is more important than to have 1.x version of av? Did you change your position on that? Because i see you using the same arguments used against us that you rightfully called out as bs.
If you had bothered to read my previous posts, you would have seen me state that I woul d have preferred a âFrankenpatchâ consisting of the, IMO, best parts of vanilla.
That is not the direction Blizzard chose to go, however. Blizzard chose to use 1.12 almost exclusively. I say almost because while I cannot, off the top of my head, think of anything that changed durting vanilla that is being implemented in its earlier version and not its 1.12 version, I could be missing something.
Perhaps you could give us all an example of something that changed during vanilla that is bring implemented in its earlier version and not its 1.12 version.
Yes, they are time gating some things, but even the time gated things will be in their 1.12 version when implemented.
Not going to call any names (I think itâs perfectly obvious without naming) but there are a few people that are so transparently trolling itâs crazy.
Not the reasoning blizzard used to justify them not being implemented.
Not the reason they arenât being implemented.
No, you are.
Specifically youâre arguing against replicating the actual timeline of Vanilla by incorporating content until itâs removed.
Iâm arguing for the more authentic Vanilla experience.
And before the AV things comes up again, Iâve always said it would be good to have 1.5 in CP3, 1.8 in CP4, and 1.11 in CP6 for AV.
And your point?
The fact remains that, at this time, Classic will not have umarmored mounts, which is consistent with everything else.
Even if this consistency was not the reason given, that consistency still remains.
It is not consistent to completely alter the game from what it was like in 1.12 and then claim that the game is exactly like it was in 1.12, thatâs false.
We are getting a patch that has never existed before, Iâm willing to compromise the authenticity of patch 1.12 for harmless mount skins.
Uh. Mount costs? Kinda relevant to this. Itâs the one example and applies directly to this.
Incoming claim that 1.12 had both mount systems, even though the fact that changes occurred during 1.12 - 1.12.2 completely defeats the argument that everything is based on 1.12.
Oh, he wonât. The mount system in question however is from 1.1.
And we know the consistency patch is 1.12.3, not 1.12.0 because weâre getting changes from 1.12.1 and 1.12.2.
The mount cost system being used IS 1.12, as you well know.
The change was not made until 1.12.1, meaning that The system being used in Classic was used in 1 12.0.
Thus the mount system being used IS consistent with 1.12. It might not be the more convenient version you would have preferred, but it IS 1.12.
And the reference patch is 1.12.3. After it had changed. You just have zero knowledge of software engineering, meaning you have no idea what â1.12â means without the final build number.
Theyâve said themselves that they are using 1.12 only as clarity, not as a patch set in stone. So there is no need for your âconsistencyâ argument at all here.
1.12 was not solely 1.12.0, 1.12.1, 1.12.2 or 1.12.3.
Every one of those minor patches is part of 1.12.
Blizzard DID not say they were using 1.12.3 as a foundation. They said they were using 1.12 as a foundation.
I decided to stop when I realized it was like having a conversation with a magic 8 ball.
The reason i asked that is i have read your previous posts and was asking you why you seem to have done a 360. You called blizz out for the bs 1.12 av excuse. Im wondering why now even though i can see through this bs unarmored mount excuse you seem to be in favor of it.
Also I never said they did make changes. If you read my posts you would have seen me say they didnât put any work into it other than porting their 1.12 they found over and the only work they did was layering. My thing is I dont like them hiding behind bs excuses and telling us they know whats best for us and that we couldnt handle old av it was too hard now they are telling us we cant handle unarmored mounts because people would feel pressuerd to race to 60.
I will call that crap out when i see it. I just wonder why you are here seeming to endorse the bs when I know you think its bs too.
Please povide an official Blizzard statement to substantiate your latest spurious claim.
I know you wonât, though.
By all means though, continue to vocalize by using your posterior.
Staysafe: It appears that youâre using the original mount system for Vanilla WoW.
Brian: Yes!
Staysafe: Youâre going to go ahead and use that?
Brian: Thatâs correct.
Staysafe: Ok awesome, Iâm really glad.
Esfand: So cheap training, expensive mounts.
Brian: Thatâs right. And also then you have the different mounts for each faction. Raptor training, wolf riding etc. (overlapping voices).
Esfand: Is that going to change at all?
Brian: No itâs going to be the way that it is for the whole time. We felt like that better captured the idea, of uh, that was the system that was live and constant for almost all of it. The newer mount system that came in, I think it was 1.12.1, yeah right at the end, it was basically like paving the way for what we were doing in Burning Crusade flying mounts and what not. So it didnât really feel like it made sense for Classic.
Nothing about the reference patch being 1.12.3.
Please provide an official Blizzard source to substantiate your spurious claim that the âreference patch is 1.12.3â.
I see that you are still localizing by using your posterior, though.
