More I read this more sounds like you just wanted the event to grief other players and so are crying now because it is over and you can’t grief or gank I hated this event because it gave others a chance to gank and grief.
More I read this, the more you come off as someone who gets upset that other players are having fun if you’re even slightly inconvenienced enough so to the point you’re willing to deprive other players of two weeks of fun so long as it now no longer conflicts with you as a single person.
Okay.
On the topic of Wrath’s Pre-patch specifically, from a combo of watching some videos and my friend, from what i’ve heard, the ghoul event has a bit more then just ghouls, like abominations walking about, and flying undead dragons and so on. It looks and sounds cool.
To be honest, that all hinges if i even want to play Legion again. As i said before, the Legion Pre-patch was actually better then the expansion itself.
But honestly, if you ask me, i think these events should be sort of “timewalked”, a clever way to preserve those pre-patch or certain other events for those who wish to experience them at any time really. Kind of speaks on the quality of the concept of limited time events… because their limited one time experiences. I get if this is real life, it would be understandable. But this isn’t real life, it’s a game.
Maybe it’s just me, but i rather withhold my hype until i actually get to play what their talking about.
Fun’s subjective. Just saying.
I’m a little upset with how poorly servers were handled by Blizzard and players. I wanted to dust off my classic pally (40) and play wotlk but now I see everyone and their grandmas dog had gone horde and were packing themselves into like 4 servers. Oh well, rip I guess.
The best middle ground would probably be to enable an opt out of taking damage from infection. And for pvp servers have no opt out option in contested area’s. The alliance and horde are more of a problem than any zombies anyways. I’ve spent way more time trying to get past groups of people at ZF entrance black rock mountains and hellfire peninsula gank squads than any zombies. Everyone gets a mount at level 20 for about 5g. probably less if they actually did their race’s quests providing a discount. even the 60% mounts are faster than zombies.
They were more like a fly you needed to swat sometimes.
I don’t care what you classic players do I was there got my mount with no trouble and left so if you want to have fun by all means do it but if classic players used this as a way to grief players then that is where I draw the line.
Having fun in an event is one thing but using said event to grief and disrupt another player is another.
The one they keep posting about on the incorrect forum. Where Blizzard will never see it and Retail players do not much care.
Skyfury has a pretty heavy alliance pop. It’s a fresh server though so no transfers or boosts. So you would have to start from scratch. 50% XP boost right now until launch.
That was literally the point of the event and why it was so widely liked. Though keep in mind, people who played this game in 2008 were a lot thicker skinned than the people playing the game now. Back then you ganked someone, they might actually have put up a fight and charged you if they saw you in the world again. Now? They go and cry on the forums that someone ganked them when they opted into war mode just wanting the free bonus experience points for leveling and think WAR mode should be carebear mode.
The modern WoW playerbase is a bunch of wimps.
Also back to NA ping
Maybe I misunderstood then I am sorry as an OG Wrath baby I am not the modern WOW player base and so am bit older in years.
The old player base was a bunch of wimps too. The only difference was that we all sucked at the game back then.
Personally I feel like prepatches should be used for unorthodox fun. Current expansion is about to be irrelevant content and all that jazz. When I look over my years in WoW I realize that some of my most memorable moments in the game were goofing around in things like the Legion prepatch, heck even the SL prepatch though a little nerfed was still lots of fun. Guarding the cathedral on moonguard in stormwind from hordes of zombies throughout the week was fun.
You can legitimately go afk in a garrison if the chaos bothers you in my eyes.
Again, Fun is subjective. People can have fun just by staring at a wall. That doesn’t mean their fun is incorrect or infringing on your fun like you think it does.
I honestly hope your self aware of what you’re doing right now while you’re making that comment, because if not… ssssssssss… hoo boy.
To be fair, (and not trying to sound insult anybody here) most of the audience were nerds. And WoW as well RPG’s were seen as nerdy at those times.
this would have helped. I was losing the fun factor as my leveling hunter got to damn near 0 armour in booty bay just trying to get to vendor to repair said armour. 3 steps tagged again or dead. repeat. repeat. repeat.
Booty bay went to crap this weekend. and since not a top spot for 70’s you were SOL there really.
I staged 2/3 corps walks to be in good spot to walk it one more time and hopped the flight master out. Darnassus was calmer so jsut settled there and logged her off the weekend.
I agree… For Retail.
For Wrath, that is trying to replicate the events that happen, i kind of have to say no…
Though then again, they added things like Ray Tracing, so… that’s a tentative no, definite maybe.
It is going to resume.
I mean they already made alterations to the event I’m pretty sure according to some other people. I’m just saying that this would provide fun for both parties. Super serious players that don’t appreciate gameplay interruptions and people looking for some chaos both have a compromise at that point.
Oh no.
Anyway…
Being honest, i have no idea what’s going on this time around with it being #nochanges, somechanges, all changes, etc… So i’m not really ready to reject or accept that idea just yet into Wrath.
But don’t get me wrong, it’s a fine idea to have in general. It’s just these “super serious chaos looking players”… tend to not want compromises or middlegrounds. To them it’s either the high way or the myway… as demonstrated by SL’s prepatch.
