One thing that pisses me off about WoW is the content being thrown in trash after a new expansion comes in.
I would like to know the community opinion specifically about the war fronts, do you guys think that it will continue in the future of the game, and do you WANT this to be continued?
I just want the game to add new stuff but KEEP the previous expansions content, if not adding new content to the mechanic at least scaling it somehow… I hope this happens to war fronts…
I hope to the Gods that they abandon the so-called “content” like Island Expeditions and Warfronts and focus on actual content like a well-written story with associated questlines.

I wouldn’t mind them sticking around, I kind of enjoy them. They could use some improvements though, but so could a lot of things.
Warfronts are by far better than the scenarios, so they have that going for them.
Iam hoping they tweek them a bit, make the events within more random, and maybe less dependent on you gathering resources and make you protect your laborers more often.
One dilemma is that we won’t be seeing a faction conflict style warfront anymore. So if they continue the warfronts it will be, either both factions working on defeating a 3rd party or each faction gets revolving turns at beating the third party,

The only content that will transfer to the next expansion is the jewel game.

I hope not honestly. Poorly thought out and poorly implemented content needs to go back to the drawing board to see if it can be reworked. It always felt like it should have been a battleground, but completely missed the mark for the target audience.

We have seen them do Horde/Alliance-gamewide stuff before.
The Gates of An Qiraj
War efforts
Against overwhelming odds.
Why can’t we take that and apply it to the actual game plot?
Warfronts don’t matter right now because the plot writers dictate who control it. What would happen if say, at the end of this expack they calculate data on who performed better, raised the most resources, ran the most warfronts etc etc…and made it canon?
I don’t know how they would balance it out so one faction doesnt outperform another and progressively place each expack at more of a disadvantage…
but come on. After 15 years of playing, I don’t feel like an influencer at all. Nothing I do in the game matters.
Warchiefs gonna chief on kief and I’m stuck along for the ride.

I hope they don’t continue with warfronts and Island expeditions in their bfa iterations for future expansions. However I do hope they don’t delete these pieces of content from the game. If I at all feeling in a masochist mood, I would hope I could do island expeditions in 9.0 and get those abysmally low drop chance mounts. Hopefully blizzard will come to their senses and have those mounts be bought with doubloons.

Warfronts where the biggest let down of this expansion and were a complete and utter failure

Warfronts were a good concept and should be more fleshed out. Make then bigger and more complicated/depth and make them pvp conbined with its pve elements. Its a waste that its not a pvp system

I don’t see them removing them from BfA content-- II would really love if they would focus harder on Story driven content rather than basic group filler content.

I don’t know if warfronts would be something that would fit the story, but I could be wrong if that shadowlands leak is actually real. I think of all the scrapped ideas, I think the Pandaria scenarios mixed with kind of how island expeditions shook out would make a nice hybrid.
I don’t think Island expeditions were a total flop, I think they needed to get harder and have a dialing phase to make them harder and reward more to make them better. I think the pvp versions were really fun, but I think given the current gear system and a different systems in place, they were exploitable and had some weird janky stuff about them.
I think if all the bugs were ironed out and it gave a mythic+ kind of progression for cosmetics and other cool stuff, they could still have a cool place. They were supposed to be an azerite farming place but were only good to hid the weekly cap which was disappointing.
I’d be good if they scrapped artifact power going forward though.
I want nothing from BFA to move into the next expansion. And while I’m sure you’ll be able to queue into a WF, if people are still there. The last thing I want is them putting resources into maintaining those abysmal ideas.

I really want them to keep Warfront and refine it. I enjoy that type of gameplay and it just makes me so nostalgic from playing WC3. I enjoy being the person gathering resources and backcapping. I love being support.
I wouldn’t mind some refinement in Warfronts. Neat in concept but just poorly executed.
I want island expiation to just go away. The tech that went into building them could have been used spending on better used elsewhere like Warfronts.
Warfronts have got to be the single biggest flop of this expansion full of flops.

I think it will because if how low effort high rewards it is but I wish it wouldnt.
I like the fact that warfronts took the best part of AV and left out the PvP. It gave players like me, non-competitive players endgame content with rewards we actually wanted - cool transmogs sets.
I don’t think I have done a raid in BFA.
I may have done like 4-5 low level Mythic+ in BFA.
I haven’t done a BG or turned on warmode on purpose.
Warfronts and Island Adventures were perfect content for me.
