Here I’ll show it to you through yes / no questions.
Was dual spec in tbc? No. This is a Fact.
Is dual spec currently in tbcc? No. This is a Fact.
Has blizzard made any mention of adding dual spec to tbcc? No. This is a Fact.
That’s 3 no for dual spec being likely in tbcc. And by your own rules of thrice repeated…
That’s what I’ve been telling you dozens of times. Neither of us care about your guesses about the future. Your guesses don’t change anything, not even your posting on dual spec threads
How do you think you’ve proved that? You didn’t prove that dual spec wouldn’t increase the numbers of tanks and healers and make it easier to find groups. You just very strongly stated your opinion that the effect would be negligible then claimed it was a fact with out any evidence to back up your opinion. Proof requires evidence. Hey, here’s an idea you’ll really like. It’s your type of proof. Try posting it again in all caps and maybe that will turn your opinion into a fact or even a convincing argument.
Dual specs are merely a convenience, TBC wasn’t built or designed around those types of conveniences, TBC already offers respecialization suited to TBC, TBC isn’t broken or lacking without dual specs, the lack of dual specs in TBC is not a mistake or oversight, convenience for convenience sake isnt necessary to play or enjoy TBC etc.
Now of course we’ve been down this road before and while we supposedly got nothing to argue about you’ll tell me this is my opinion but all Im doing is pointing out what you should already know and understand but somehow fail to do so and instead blame me for your ignorance like its my fault you cant handle the truth.
that would be in the best interests of the players imo. That’s my feedback to the devs that they requested players give them. If blizzard decides it would be in the best interests of the players that’s enough of a reason for them to add it.
Patrick Dawson: one thing we learned as we went through the release of the content in Classic is that [no changes] may not always be in the best interest of the players. The community today is so different from what the community was back in 2007 that it had us take a different philosophy with Burning Crusade, where we actually started to allow ourselves to make some changes that were in the best interests of the players that will continue to develop alongside the community.
This discussion will be ongoing until wotlk and dualspec is released. No one cares about your tank and healer shortage for dungeons as logs are the way of tracking population anyway. And that population is not declining at all, having some people try out tank and healer for a week due to the dualspec won’t help you nor others. Numbers will be the same and people will respec to their mainspec a week after.
Well that’s clearly false since the threads asking for dual spec are the longest threads on the forum and the requests gets hundreds of likes. Several hundred people have expressed that they care about the tank and healer shortage and they think dual spec will make it easier to find them.
Also Im a player and my interests differ vastly from yours and I never elected you to lobby for whats best for me on my behalf. Hence my opposition to your request. Now, if you want your own dual spec tbc server then you have my full support but otherwise I wholly disagree with your opinion as is my right.
Sure, if they decide that would be best. Doesn’t look like they agree with that sentiment though. I dont think they’re actively picking a side here but if you did a real critical analysis of dual specs for TBC I would think they would arrive at most of the same conclusions that I have: Its not necessary and thus not a priority and thus not likely to happen for any reason.
Sure, our opinions on what is in the best interests of the players differ and I’m not lobbying for you. I giving the devs the feedback they requested. When there’s a choice between doing what you want and doing what the devs asked for I’ll go with what the devs asked for every time. Anyway players disagreeing is a given. I don’t agree with every change blizzard has made to the game. Some I like, some I don’t. I don’t have a problem with you giving your feed back to the devs even if it’s different than mine. I have a problem when you claim your opinions are facts, when you claim you’re some expert on how the devs think, and when you claim you have the power of prophecy.
I used the facts to shape my opinion and explained how and why I arrived there which is more than I can say for any pro dual spec advocate. Apparently people cant handle “it doesnt look good for dual specs in TBC classic” based on the empirical evidence so they just write it off as baseless speculation and then baselessly speculate on why dual specs are actually somewhat likely if not already planned to go in unbeknownst to us (lol).
I talked about probability and what it looks like when you examine all the relevant data and put 2+2 together. People wanna disagree with that very reasonable assumption and argue and make falsified claims about it then say theyre not arguing or making claims right before they go back to arguing about it with their claims while they hold other people accountable for claims those people never made.
Like I keep saying, there’s nothing anyone can say that raises the status of dual specs from completely optional and unnecessary convenience into a must have feature that TBC desperately needs. As long as thats the case I dont have to see it your way, even a little bit.
People can handle your guess just fine. They just don’t care that you made a guess. People come here to make a case that it would be in the best interests of the players and to ask blizzard to add it.
I get that those posts are really hard for you to understand but if you read them slowly and carefully a few times I think you’ll see that what I’m saying is no one, not even you, cares about your guesses about the future.
Our point has never been that dual spec is a must have feature the BC desperately needs. Our point has been that you don’t understand what the devs are thinking and misunderstand their reasons for making changes. The devs very clearly said they will be making changes they think are in the best interests of the players. Our point is dual spec will make the game much better for the vast majority of players and we think it’s in the best interests of the players that it be added.
I’ve returned - and… literally no new or good arguments from Corpseknife - I think I broke his brain yesterday. You guys should just ignore him and his replies, he’ll keep ripping his hair out in despair.
Put your money where your mouth is and stop replying to me then.
Plenty of not caring to go around. For example, Blizz doesnt care about your feedback in regard to dual specs.
There’s like 1000 posts where people say otherwise. There were a whole bunch of the game is gonna be dead in weeks unless dual specs blah blah blah. They backed off that because all their predictions fell flat on their face.
And you do? See, this is why your posts make no sense whatsoever. Zir and the rest of the clown car are in the same boat. You are distinctly implying you know something I don’t which is your impetus for telling me Im wrong (debate) which begs you to impart that knowledge and the facts theyre built on but instead you back pedal and say youre not debating anything and merely offering feedback then go back to arguing like you got some facts backing you up like you didnt just say you werent arguing. Rinse and repeat. Then unironically and hypocritically ask me to prove your no facts all feels argument wrong which I already did with actual facts that you never get around to addressing like a rational discourse demands.
Its usually at that point in the conversation you go way off topic and talk about education systems and poetry. Im pretty much forced to conclude at this point that youre a crackpot troll
The truth is both of us are in the dark when it comes to the motives and intentions of the developers but if we had to use common sense and reason and make an educated guess using reality and its facts as a guide its way more likely that dual specs DONT come in vs them coming in.
How am I wrong again?
That is your totally subjective opinion - a faith based narrative with no credible evidence to support it. Fact.
I like how you tell me Im wrong but never actually get around to proving me wrong. Then you want to subtly link me to a controversial ex president in the form of an insult that lands as well as a 747 hitting the ocean nose first because thats how coward trolls like you roll.
