What happened to the dev teams that were so strongly against RDF?

Since you are little slow. The ones complaining are people like you. Its too little too late.

Blizz was too SCARED that wrath will be more successful than DF. They delayed but had released on a version that was much later in OG. Selective bull **** is what it was.

Now they are seeing numbers drops like crazy. This is a last ditch effort to bring people back. But most of us who quit because after Ulduar because Wrath is boring.

Blizz played its dumb decision catering to IDIOTS like you. Now let them reap their dumb ideas.

They knew… KNEW there were issues way before they just wasted until ICC because that allows them to save face.

They knew there were problems with leveling dungeons, normal dungeons and heroic dungeons. They could have pulled the trigger months ago because that would force an admission that they were wrong.

Also these streamers and youtubers that were so against it and pushing for these Titan Rune (some suggestions were much worse for the game than what we got where a suggestion was alpha dungeons drop 10m ulduar gear and make them even harder than what was seen) and now they are like “RDF is needed!”

Its almost like people lack any foresight and ask the questions “how would this negatively impact the game and what could we do to fix that negative impact before it shows up?” None of that was done yet most of us seen the writing on the wall.

And have said as much repeatedly in interviews, yes.

It’s just standard Blizzard really.

They just didnt have a way out until ICC so they dont have to say “we were wrong” and they can instead say “this is when it released… whats the issue?!”

Its typical Blizzard. They knew the problems before ToC launched.

They also didnt go into detail of what RDF would entail. The person who asked the question just asked about leveling dungeons… so who even really knows if they will include anything over level 70. They probably dont want to do any work so its going to include everything though they should probably not include Titan Rune difficulty. Even now people still try to join reg H groups and then activate the beta “clicky clicky”.

So what. the forums are all spam of “don’t add” it, “don’t add” it, then “add it”, “add it”, then now you are unhappy that you got it because it did not come in EXACTLY when you wanted it. Give me a break. You people really will go out of your way to complain about absolutely anything and everything on these forums.

You spam asked for it for months, now that you got it, you’re unhappy that you got it because it came in too late… yea whatever. Why did you keep asking for it then if it had already went past the date that you wanted it on?

Because the issues of not having RDF showed its ugly head in the first month of it not being in the game.

More like since launch, and yes this is too late into the expansion to actually make anyone happy because it should have been in at least when they introduced Titan Rune dungeons.

People are weird let them whine, even if I agree RDF should have been in since day one of WOTLK, but I’m still glad they gonna add it and I’m gonna enjoy it.

Came out ICC patch drop last time. I made it work. So can you.

This isnt last time, this is now. Titan Rune dungeons didnt exist LAST TIME so its irrelevant of what they did last time.

You people are never happy no matter what they do. Its no wonder they dont even try anymore. You all finanly got what you asked for and not a single person says how excited they are that we finally got it. Instead, you just complain and get mad at and blame Blizzard for giving you what you asked for. And you people wonder why they don’t even try anymore. No matter what they do, no one is ever happy. So why put effort and lots of money into a great thing when they can put no effort and very little money in and end up getting the exact same result from the player base. End result is the same. You people will get mad at Blizzard no matter what they do.

By this point, Blizzard knows you people are entirely impossible to please and are always going to insult their work and be ungrateful for it, so they don’t even bother to try anymore and I don’t blame them. I woulda given up on this player base too if I were them.

Most likely scenario is it was always going to be released with the ICC patch. They just weren’t releasing it at launch like “everyone” wanted.

I said it would be as it was last time.

This is your lack of understanding. We who had played OG , already knew why RDF was relevant. We spoke from experience and from RL situations. But when a company wants to treat you like you are some 15year old with no life experience and make blanket decisions. Well guess what this is not 2009, most of us are not in awe of Blizz anymore and are treating it like a regular product company with a SUBSTANDARD product. We stopped using it.

The feature was to keep people engrossed in the game in other ways than just raid logging.

This is the same as opening tansfers to high pop servers, why delay it? Oh no that will affect wow population on small servers and now it doesnt?

Blizz has a track record of doing dumb things for money. This time they played with the wrong crowd( much older and having other RL commitments) to be hooked on Wrath. They didnt want to understand that people (the older generation) would have paid them easily if they just did not screw it up.

And Legion had RDF. Looks like RDF is not to blame for the shortcomings of WoW.

These threads are all getting worse. Not entertaining or insightful, just worse all around.

I did. I have already shown much more knowledge about it than you have here. Wasn’t it i and I alone who kept spamming saying that it was going to come with the ICC drop? yes it was.

Even in the old RDF mega threads anti rdf posters said no one could complain about its lack of inclusion unless they didnt release it with ICC. It was more or less generally assumed it would come with ICC.

That wasn’t the point of any of those threads though, people wanted it at launch.

You’re usually a reasonable person so it’s strange to see you on the same side of an argument as Aovona. Why do you think it’s likely that this was their plan the whole time even though they have been saying as close to “never” as they could? Why do you think they maintained such a hardline stance against it for so long just to finally announce it so late?
