Ion also mentioned it wasn’t set in stone, so there is hope that can be altered. Dire Maul should not be in the release stage.

I agree and having nothing more to add.
Dire Maul is part of the paladin and warlock epic quest chains; if it’s not in the game, then those quests can’t be finished until it’s added.
And again, if you take the position that anything that has been revealed but “isn’t set in stone” doesn’t count as having been said, then I’m quite sure Bornakk doesn’t have the authority to say anything that would count, by your definition, so there’s no point to asking them anything.

i’m just going by what was said. some things are set in stone, while other things are/were still under discussion.
as mentioned, the problem with Dire Maul is the gear will make the opening raids less difficult to complete. That goes against one of the main reasons for Classic in the first place…increased difficulty. A couple of epic quest chains not being completed for 6 months is a small price to pay to keep the opening raids difficult, especially since they are only difficult because of stats, and not mechanics.
we will see…

The quote " Later this Year" makes me think they will not make the Summer target.
I am okay with that if the time is spent making things right…
I would like to hear about the unanswered questions in the sticky.

its taking every ounce of my self control to not try out a vanilla pserver. lol currently, i am unsubbed from retail also, which is not helping, since i still enjoy retail (just not as enthusiastically as classic). we are currently doing house repairs and i can’t justify adding the sub expense atm but if they said classic next week, i’d be at the store buying that sub so fast.

Because they haven’t answered them yet, and bornakk asked in this one.
It’s important for us, the players, to remember that this sin’t a crowdfunded indie project: Blizzard doesn’t report their progress to us if they don’t want to.
It’s important for Blizzard to remember that dead silence is a horrible form of community engagement.
A balance exists, and I think a semi formal update here and there, on design decisions that are locked in or some of the choices they’re narrowing things down to, is hardly out of line.

Yes or no to Beta. Post random pictures of updated scenes that may hint answers to our questions.
The problem is that Blizzard said that the community will help drive the project, and yet we got almost zero updates.

Cycles? AVold weekend events?
Ummm, “you think you don’t but you do”
Feels like you got an important call and the phone died.
Seriously… how does that mechanic work?
How about warrior charge, will the pathfinding be 1.12 or current pathfinding? Are the improvements to charge pathfinding a bugfix or a change?
Sticky is still there for Bornakk to view
