>releases in little over a month>Beta only went up to 20, 40 levels of untested content>Rogue, Shaman, Warrior and Druid borderline unplayable>Huge Horde class imbalance due to Forsaken Paladins coming at launch>Graphics and models all over the place, serious thematic inconsistencies>Bots already in the beta>Streamers taking over megaserversIt's going to be a shitshow isn't it?
>>748339663I'm having a blast
>40 levels of untested contentits fucking vanilla WoW retard
I am having a blast, unironically
>>748339663>Druid borderline unplayableexplaini didn't cuck out for early access
>>748339663Beta level cap goes up in October.
>>748340836Wrath damage got destroyed for some reason so wrath does less damage than an auto. Druid leveling is reported to be absolutely miserable.
>sod runes datamined>the cope of "runes are not in its just leftovers"dwarf racials fucking suck, didn't even get a decent priest racial. gnomes new racials is honestly pretty good, undead priest racial which is basically a dark rune on a 10 min cd is neat. sub for rogue looks interesting but pretty sure no one is going to do anything with it. (except pshero that old fuck)I love the amount of ass mad asmong is generating by just existing, telling transfags to just play the other factions generates so much anger from them.
Blizzard won. FF15 troons lost
>>748339663I knew it was going to be a shitshow since I found out they're doing megaserverslop with layers
60k people playing right now, I think forever won
I feel like the only people who don't like wow forever are the people who haven't played it, I see the same engagement farming threads everyday and they're full of misinformation.
>>748339663I’m having a blast
>>748341062sounds like ass but how's feral? i always leveled 10-20 just autoing in bear form instead of casting wrath so that's only an issue until level 10and with how populated the starting zones will be at launch it won't be hard to level to 10 anyway since everybody will want you in their group for moonfire tagging
>>748341182>sounds like ass but how's feral? i always leveled 10-20 just autoing in bear form instead of casting wrath so that's only an issue until level 10love these shills who downplay every issue by pretending nobody ever cared about it lolSoD instantly made wrath feel good by giving it 0 mana cost. Forever just decided to destroy spell damage scaling because some tranny dev decided everyone wants to be in full blues from level 10
>>748341168>I feel like the only people who don't like wow forever are the people who haven't played itThanks Holly but I doubt you've touched a video game in your life let alone the one you're shilling for
>>748339663>I'm playing beta and it's in beta state>Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo>IT'S SO OVER
>>748339663This game is so fun. I’m having a blast.
jesus christ what happened to /v/ in the last yearthis thread is a fucking toilet
>>748341440
>>748341159>Only 60kIts getting mogged by Aniimo
>>748341440>>I'm playing beta and it's in beta stateIt's in an alpha state, if they release it like this i aint touching it
>>748339663so no different from classic launch
alliance sissies tried to siege undercity from the sewers
>>748341876dont give em an inch brother
>>748341876lol nice retail graphics
>>748341668yo chat is this real? is the korean pokemon foid game mogging our game fr?
>>748339663Beta is going to 30 not 20. Beta is mostly server testing more than anything. How is there an imbalance? Ally got shamans didn't they? Graphics are amazing. Who cares about streamers? It's one server.
>>748339663>Graphics and models all over the place, serious thematic inconsistenciesonly if you're a retard playing on SD graphics
>>748342101its genshin tier but wow forever is in its own league
Got to 20 and really happy with the changes. Just nothing to do so I'm waiting to not burn myself out for release.
>>748341998You lost
>>748341062You have to stack spell power. They put spell power on practically all the gear and balanced it by nerfing spell damage and healing across the board.
>>748342192nah ah, trump is the one in power, (You) lost tranny
>>748341303what are you talking about schizospell damage scaling? i thought this was about base damage?practically nobody leveled casting wrath in classic because it sucked balls compared to playing feral and having basically zero downtimeif wrath really sucks then i'm sorry for all ten people who actually care about balance druid leveling but anyone remotely serious was going to level feral anyway even if they want to go boomy at 60
>>748342192The HD models are almost objectively worse.
>>74834115960k people could be taking a shit right nowDoes that mean taking a shit is winning?
I'm no lore fag but isnt forsaken paladins insanely stupid
>>748342296can you make this analogy using food? I have americanalogy syndrome
>>748342296I'm taking a shit right now, it's pretty tidy NGL
>>748342258>spell damage scaling? i thought this was about base damage?They cut the base damage so that more damage comes from items you dumb cunt
>>748342280>kino chad to JUSTed in the blink of an eye
>>748342353Yes it is
>>748342353I'm a lore fag and it's not as stupid as you think
>>748342353No, there's an undead paladin in Naxx as well it's not even a new thing.
>>748342353incrediblybut you know whyWHYthey make this decision?METZENFUCKING METZEN AGAINbecause oh look at me I am rocking roll METZEN undead are cool let them be paladinsfuck you metzenyou know who can be paladins on hordeon loreand pretty coolSUNWALKERStaurens god dammit, and people would have a reason to play these god forsaken race shit cowsI am unreasonably mad about this, but it's because metzen is regarded as the holy saint of warcraft lore, this fucker
>>748342357Alright60k people could be eating nachos and cheese right nowI would rather be one of the 60k eating nacho cheese than one of the 60k playing WoW retail with blue bloodElves>>748342362Based shit taker
>>748339663what happened with Druid? Weren't they always kinda shitty except for being healbots in vanilla?
>>748342375okay??????? what's your point hereif you're playing feral you're probably not going to be casting a lot of wraths in your agility gear anywayif you're playing balance then you're going to have spell damage gear since apparently it's on everything nowwhy are you mad
>>748342353Its stupid but its also kino, the real issue is the blue elves appearing as playable characters before High elves just because blizzard realized it could flip textures for blood elves instead and call it a day
>>748342482wow...you made a good point
>>748339663>>Huge Horde class imbalance due to Forsaken Paladins coming at launchbut i was told by le zoomers that alliance are da cool racists and horde are all thirdies etcu mean all the actual pvp boomers just gonna roll horde again like they always have? who coulda predicted this!!
>>748342451I mean, it's meztzens lore he can literally do and write or create anything he wants and it's accurate. Instead of whining about his story maybe go write your own and sell it. Dweeb."OMG I can't believe tolkien added these dumb ents to the lord of the rings, why didn't the hobbit have them? Tolkien is a hack!" "WTF JK Rowling just added wizards that live underwater, Ugh! This wasn't in the original books but now shes writing a new one nooooo!!!!!!!^-- this is what you sound like
>>748342451undead paladins aren't stupid but not letting tauren and night elves also be paladins in forever is INCREDIBLY fucking stupid
>>748342508>okay??????? what's your point hereThat they've limited your options in playstyle just to mimic retail>why are you madBecause the game is like retail, they already did this in cataclysm, that dead expansion nobody liked.
>>748342451>tauren paladinthat's ten times worse than undead paladins
>>748342490Nothing, he's being retarded. Druids got like 10 QoL updates they can do things while in animal forms now like eat and drink and they even can use thistle tea. Also got a new form in WC. Actually insane amount of shit done to druids, a furry is clearly in charge.
>>748342554don't make me go autistic on you, let me be, metzen is a heck
>>748342598factually and lore wise, incorrect
>>748342567i don't see how this is limiting your playstyle at allANY druid who wanted to flex role would have two sets of gearyou could heal dungeons in feral spec (especially after heart of the wild) but you'd still be holding on to intellect gear, you wouldn't be healing in agility pieceshow is this any different? if anything it makes it easier to flex because maintaining your spell gear is less difficult
>>748342353It’s tauren rogue tier.
>>748342606You've already gone autistic on me by existing. If metzen is a hack than don't play warcraft. Pretty simple concept.
I was initially going to main holy priest then remembered that youngfags are straight up rude to healers now, so I shan't be doing that.
>>748342707nobody is rude to healers unless you aren't pressing heal
>>748339663I really fail to see what any of that matters when the content creators are paid, the shilling campaign is fully funded and every whale is having a blast.
>>748342691fuck no, tauren rogue was its own tier of ridiculous
>>748342739>whales>it's included in your base monthly subscriptionOh no, the horror!
>>748339861>I'm having a blast
>>748342769I'm having a blast and I'm a white american actually.
>>748341182There was a feral druid as the best tank ive had for dungeons. Dude stacked stamina and had every elixer and buff and hit like a truck. I guess in earlier versions it was trash because you couldnt have buffs from elixers, couldnt use consumables, and your weapon didnt scale. The rotations are now about cooldowns and not shifting. Natures grasp can be used in form, entangling roots works indoors. Granted he was lvl 20 in hall of thanes and geared so it was easy but still did better than other warriors or palladins I ran it with who were 20.
>>748341159>60k peopleeh, i dunno. from what i've seen outside of a streamer there's like. i dunno, 30 people at most?
>>748342731You don't know what you're talking about. These broccoli retards will just randomly over pull or never watch threat, then say "HEALLLLLLLLS WTF". We had this a bit in early WoW, but it's far worse now because all these kids have main character syndrome.
>>748339663>Shaman borderline unplayableAre we playing the same Shaman? The class is arguably the one with the best changes.
>>748342839You can sit in org refreshing your phase and just keep seeing hundreds of people.
>>748342490eh, they weren't THAT bad until naxx gear. feral cat with powershifting could hold its own dps-wise though it was extremely high effort to actually play, and having a feral bear offtank is actually optimal for 99% of the game because it could generate insane threat in full mit gear without having to be the actual target, and it also meant you could run one less warrior and therefore all your warriors would be better geared. it only fell off when everyone was fully naxx geared and the game is long over at that point.
>>748339663>Rogue, Shaman, Warrior and Druid borderline unplayablekek what? every class you mentioned is in a better state than classicshaman in particular is fucking incredible in terms of damage already>bots in the betaif they keep to their word and perma ban anyone who buys gold, rmt will not be a problem
>>748342881Super OP in PVP
>>748340026except its not
>>748342659no sorry shamanistic tribal minotaurs shouldn't be paladins
>>748341668>Free game vs paid betaThe fact 60k people paypiggied for it and the free chinkware only gets 20k more is embarrassing
>>748342759>he's subscribed to wow in 2026What else, you pay you wife's bull's sub too?
>>748341668wow forever costs 60 dollars
>>748339663>Huge Horde class imbalance due to Forsaken Paladins coming at launchNo it'll be when Asmongold quits just like Faerlina Circa 2019 and the AH collapses.
>>748342694>If metzen is a hack than don't play warcraftok
>>748339663>Rogue, Shaman, Warrior and Druid borderline unplayableCan instantly tell you're retarded
I did a quick count and >>748342839 is correct, 37 to be precise, game is DOA damnnn
>>748342993Realistically how long can they pay him to shill before he pulls the plug?
>>748343020yeah the people who make these threads every fucking day aren't exactly sending their bestthey're full of shit that is just completely wrong
>>748342975>muh private serversYASS XISTER DONATE! YOU GO XIRL!
>>748342903>shaman in particular is fucking incredible in terms of damage already
>>748341159Viewers on twitch do not equal players, retard
>>748342967Tauren are at least living and not an openly evil race whose stated mission is to destroy all life on azeroth.
>>748343093>>748342903lmao these jeet shills getting btfo by hard data is amazing
>>748342558Fuck no. 15 years later and Tauren paladin is the single dumbest fucking thing in the series.
>>748343093>playing elemental at fucking level 20are you retarded? the only things i can't outdamage as enhancement shaman are: consecrate spamming prot paladin and hunteryou have not played the game
>>748342808even in regular old classic, feral is the best tank for dungeons full stop. they have insane threat output and they're ridiculously durable especially after dire bear form. they also no-sell a lot of bullshit by being immune to polymorph. not surprised to hear they're good in forever.
>>748342993Asmon is playing PvE when the servers go live
>>748343142>are you retarded?I'm sorry shill, could you not play elemental at lvl 20 in SoD?
>>748343184nobody liked sod retardif you want sod just go play retail kek
>>748343115unc don't get the buzz twitch/kick generates kek fr chat mogged
>SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR LOOK AT MY AI GRAPHS
>>748339663i don't wanna pay for beta. have they actually handed out codes to those who opted in but didn't pay for one?
>>748343224no but they might soon
>>748342659>retail lore>retard lore
>>748343184Oh so we're talking about SoD now? Did you say ele shaman or just "shaman"? you're an idiotenhancement fucking rules, being able to get 100% attack power from intellect is cracked, and as someone else already pointed out, you get spellpower mainly from gear now and it's going to scale like crazyit was clearly done to keep casters more competitive with classes like warrior through gearing you IMBECILEEEEEEEEEEEEyou have not played the game
>>748343208>nobody liked sod retardEveryone liked phase 1 of sod, which included lvl 20.>if you want sod just go play retail kekForever is more retail than sod
I'm having a blast
>>748339861me toothey are going to fix EVERYTHING btw
>>748343031Blizz hates him, he leeches onto whatever can make him the most traction and money. Reforming Olympus is just that and these roaches don't see it.
>>748343259>you get spellpower mainly from gear now and it's going to scale like crazyI don't want to get all of my power from gear though, especially while levelling, that's fucking stupid and retail
>>748343256you...you got me
>>748343259i don't even get what he's supposed to be mad aboutbase damage is lower because gear has more spell power on it so casters actually do dps and aren't just sidelined for more rogues and warriors and this is supposed to be a bad thing?
>>748343314>it's retail to get power from gearJesus Christ you guys don't even know what you're pretending to argue in favor of
>>748342883>in org>hundreds of people.its more like 40 desu
>>748343259>Did you say ele shamanYou said ele shaman you fucking idiot >>748343142>playing elemental at fucking level 20This is you
>>748343031I am 100% convince he will now play for longunless...he wants to use the game as a smokescreen to shield him from criticism from his takes on the current POTUS. I can see that, POTUS is out, some shit happens, then asmong will be 100% in game saying "nah dude we don't talk about politics here, wow is lit right now"
>>748343345These are discordfags, they don't care if their information is incorrectthere mission is to make everyone think every game that comes out sucks, all the time, period, and if you say you like literally ANY game (even a 30 year old one) you are a shill
>>748342280>playing warcraft for 30 years be like
>>748343363yeah it literally is, while levelling in retail you get funnelled exactly the gear you need which is all blues, which makes gearing feel completely pointless and perfunctory. I don't want my lightning bolt or wrath to be gimped to socially engineer me to go and get lvl 10 blue gear just to get back to the point you start from in vanilla, you dumb shit.
They nerfed spell damage across the board and put more spell power into gear so caster gear actually felt like an upgrade. The casters hit the hardest by this were Druid and Shaman.Druid>Wrath now absolutely useless at low levels. Literally worse than auto attacking>Gets pushed back up once you start getting spell power gearShaman>Spell Damage thrown into the gutter. Not as bad as Druid, but...>Doesn't get better with gear. For some reason shamans need like 4x the amount of spell power every other caster needs to bridge the gap in damage from the base nerfs
>>748343371Damn almost like I was replying to OP who said "shaman bad", not "ele shaman bad"shaman is not badshaman goodyou are retarded
>>748343413>there mission is to make everyone think every game that comes out suckshaven't they seem the switch 1/2 life spam? Damn, hard job. Easy on playstation side, but nintendo being killing
>>748343314genuine schizo postyou know how casters can even FUNCTION in classic leveling? by having gear that gives them intellect so they can cast more than 1 spell without instantly oomingsure your naked frostbolt might do 3x the damage in classic compared to the new forever system but in either instance you still can't 1v1 a mob because you can't cast enough frostbolts to kill it
>>748343453why not just leave it how it was
>>748343450>noooo you can't just fix the game and make spellcasters scale in the same way warriors and rogues scale with gear!>i just want 2 classes in all endgame content REEEEEEEEEEEEThis is you
>>748343467>Damn almost like I was replying to OPyou werent replying to op, you were replying to >>748343093learn to remember what happened 5 minutes ago you dumb brownoid shill
>>748342280I like the tauren.
>>748343142Why would anyone care about level 20 meta? I'm looking ahead when talking about these things. Ele is gibbed, rogues don't have that many changes while the game is littered with anti-rogue items and spells.
>>748343498>why can't they just leave the game exactly like Classic in Classic+
>>748343453probably because shaman has some pretty fucking gross spike damage at high spell power levels.but this is a little strange though, given how much people are bitching about the leveling process being easier.
>>748343495>YOU DON'T WANT ITEMIZATION TO GET FUCKED LIKE IN CATACLYSM>??!!1 SCHIZO!!!! >BUY THE GAME! ONLY SCHIZOS DON'T BUY NEW PRODUCT!!!India's least obvious shill
>>748343538>jeet doesn't know how to follow a reply chainThank you saaar excellent work saar great detective work saaar you have convinced me saar
blizzard is so fucking stupid we didn't want retail- we wanted classic+ but with #nochanges
>>748343526>>noooo you can't just fix the gamebut there was nothing wrong with it lol
>>748343498probably so that casters can actually fucking scale properly into endgame would be my guessgear progression for casters in vanilla is stupid as shit early game anyway since spellpower gear basically doesn't exist and even when it does it's virtually always better to just get more int because +5 fire damage isn't going to make you kill a mob in one less fireball and this doesn't change until like the 40s when you can finally stack enough spellpower for it to start mattering
>>748343562>why should classic+ be like classicyes its a mystery to the sub-90 IQ foids who run Blizzard now
>>748343625Damn you're lucky there are like 40 Vanilla servers for you to play on thenbut you'd rather seethe about Classic+, a thing that is literally intended by design to iterate on VanillaI swear these anti-Forever threads have some of the dumbest fucking mouthbreathing mongoloids I have ever had the misfortune of encountering, even on 4chinz.Just absolutely mentally incompetent
>>748343625>there was nothing wrong with itfury warrior hands typed this post
>>748343653>probably so that casters can actually fucking scale properly into endgame would be my guessThis isn't endgame >>748343093notice how the graph curves down at the start? Do they teach you how to read graphs in India?
>>748343498you mean, no changes?
>>748342280dwarves rock
>>748343732>put more spellpower on gear>adjust scaling so casters aren't globaling mobshow is this a problem? do you want them to leave the base damage the same?
>>748343610no addons? say no addons and I am sold
>>748343737No I mean changes to things that are actually broken, not things that aren't broken. Kinda the opposite to the way they changed wow with the expansions. It's like the whole point of classic+ in the first place lol
>>748343791there's addons but forever uses the new addon restrictions that retail has now
>>748343687>but you'd rather seethe about Classic+, a thing that is literally intended by design to iterate on Vanillayeah, iterate on vanilla, but not like retail iterated on vanilla. Kind of an important distinction you left out there.
this guy having a melty over spellpower is genuinely the brownest person i've ever met, and i play world of warcraft so you know that's saying something. what an unbelievably fucking retarded nigger.
>>748342975Yeah anon, it's called not being poor. I can throw $15/mo at pretty much anything and not even know it's gone.>>748343000Cool, now leave these threads since you don't play the games.>>748343368Okay, now go to the other areas, Org isn't just the entrance and bank lol.
>>748343823I completely lost my shit and got irrationally angry when I read "retoilet" on your post, holy fuck I am losing it man. I need meds
>>748343786>do you want them to leave the base damage the same?Yes? And just don't put spell power on levelling items? The way that the game already was and worked fine? Are you high? What kind of kool aid have you consumed that has made you think this is logical?
>>748343847>Cool, now leave these threads since you don't play the games.ok...
>>748343828Alright let's hear your "good ways to iterate on Vanilla"You don't want to fix classes or make anyone competitive with warriors and rogues in raids, so what are your big ideas, retard-san? Surely you have some and not just complaints
>>748341876>those retail modelsI am gonna puke
>>748343925Why do zoomers care about models so much? WoW never looked good.
>>748343910>Alright let's hear your "good ways to iterate on Vanilla"Let's start by adding high elves and ogres.By the way you don't have to ask me, just go do some research, people have been talking about this for a long time. Rescaling and ruining the gearing process while levelling wasn't on the bingo card. They're just repeating the same thing they did with retail, because they're retail devs and that's all they know.
>>748343878>and worked fineIt didn't work fine. Caster gearing while leveling was complete garbage, when it even existed at all. Only physical damage classes got to be excited about gear before practically level cap.
>>748343975classic astroturfing/gaslighting shill tactics
>>748343975because it's the big 20 26? and Blizzard have money to spare too lets be honest
>>748343986>It didn't work fine. Caster gearing while leveling was complete garbageSaid nobody until Blizzcon 2026
>>748343979>le high elves and ogresokay man, you hit that off the tee, really great creative suggestion thereNow what else do you have? You don't want to update the game graphically and you don't want to make other classes competitive in endgame, so presumably no class changes whatsoever.So, uh, what DO you want? Aside from le high elves and ogres? Just two new races and nothing else?
>>748343986>Only physical damage classes got to be excited about gear before practically level cap.That's not true at all
Im a level 7 dwarf hunter and im.actuslly having a bunch of fun trying to level up all my skills and professions and get money to buy stuff from the vendors, it feels like this stuff im doing actually matters, its completely unlike retail.
>>748343986yeah, caster gearing is objectively dumb. literally the only stat that matters is int, unless you're a warlock in which case it's stam. spellpower is effectively worthless because stacking it requires watching the AH like a hawk for overpriced spell damage greens just to get over the hump of one less spell cast to kill an at-level mob, and even then you're sacrificing mana pool so you have to drink way more often.of course this schizo never actually played wow so he doesn't know this.
>>748344115Why are you pretending like there aren't a million better ideas for classic+ out there already?Oh I know, it's because your script says to gaslight anyone who suggests that precisely whatever Blizzard is planning to do isn't the best possible outcome
>>748344028You'd need to hire the original people back otherwise it's irrelevant and they are all retired.
>>748344204Oh shut the fuck up. It doesn't matter what blizzard does or doesn't do. You're angry and irrational and nothing will make you satisfied. Kick rocks.
>>748344204>uhhh well there's better ideas but you wouldn't know them they go to a different schoolgreat job man really convincing
>>748344204>the ideas are... uh... out there...>you just gotta... do your own researchlmaoSo you have a bunch of complaints, basically about everything, but ZERO (0) suggestions about how you'd like to see the game changed?Almost like you're just arguing dishonestly in a hatethread, hmm?
>>748344170>>748343986samefagging >yeah, caster gearing is objectively dumb.Nobody cared about gearing while levelling. You just get what you need to survive. It's not about optimising DPS.

>>748344328>izzatsomething you care about deeply I presume Raj?
explain how "classic plus" isn't just "retail minus" when they're just incorporating a bunch of recycled shit from existing retail content (again!)
>>748344335naw i'm calling you a scrub
>>748344270>>the ideas are... uh... out there...>>you just gotta... do your own researchYeah it's not like there were several private servers dedicated to this exact thing or anything, certainly not ones that Blizzard shut down themselves...
>>748344271>i didn't care about this thing so nobody did>YOU CARE ABOUT THIS THING? YOU MUST BE A SHILLgenuine schizo behavior
>>748344271>Nobody cared about gearing while levelling.nobody was optimizing autistically while leveling but seeing a quest reward or drop that tangibly made you stronger was always exciting, that's the whole point of a gear system

>>748344416no it's just that literally nobody complained about it until Blizzard made a statement at Blizzcon that it was a "problem" and now you suspicious individuals are repeating that same line in every thread
>>748344271okay, so if nobody cares about gearing while leveling and gear was just whatever you could get your hands on, then why do you suddenly care now? please explain in your own words how "i use whatever because i don't care about gear" is impacted in any way by this.
>>748344386Because it's literally classic with additional stuff and plays nothing like retail.It's not that complicated retard.
>>748341168>I feel like the only people who don't like wow forever are the people who haven't played itWelcome to /v/
>want to keep playing>know about the level cap and this not being launchI think I shall call it there. Save myself for launch
>>748339663The beta is an ad not an actual test, if it's testing anything it's server related
>>748344450literally nobody would be talking about this if you weren't having a HUGE melty over it for the last two hours you insane fucking niggerYOU are the reason it keeps coming up as a topic
>>748344423>nobody was optimizing autistically while leveling but seeing a quest reward or drop that tangibly made you stronger was always excitingYeah, and at no point did any spell caster playing classic or vanilla think "damn this robes of Arugal is disappointing because it doesn't have any SPELL POWER save me John Blizzard!"
>>748343847>the other areasanon, those "other" areas are completely dead.

>>748344441Massive improvement
>>748344558No.
>>748344439Of course I'm not going to tell you, you're arguing disingenuously and you're paid to shill, there's no point in discussing it with you at all, moreover you're just using it as an excuse to deflect and shift the conversation away from honest criticism
>>748339663Did people even ask for this game?
>>748344569>i have suggestions but i'm not going to tell you teehee
>>748344569>I-I'm not gonna tell you my girlfriend's name, she goes to a different school!>You wouldn't know her!
>>748344458>okay, so if nobody cares about gearing while leveling and gear was just whatever you could get your hands on, then why do you suddenly care now?Because they gimped the base spell power of all abilities you dumb fuck that's literally what this argument is about
>>748344546>"rainbow" completely botched by a giant black shit smearthe sheer degree of self-sabotage in everything these literal fags do still makes me kek
>>748344515yeah, instead i remember being constantly disappointed by low level spell power gear when i realize it only increases my frostbolt damage by 70% of the already low value on it so i do like 3 extra damage when i would need 50 extra damage for it to actually make literally any difference in my gameplay (mob dies in one less frostbolt)
>>748344507Keep it up Raj, anyone who criticises their stupid decisions is emotionally unstable, good one, positive marketing technique
>>748343075That anime girl is still more in line with vanilla wow than all the retail slop Blizzard is shoving into Forever.
Yes, WoW Forever is a steamy pile of crap. I'm going to be playing Monsters & Memories and no amount of WoW Forever shilling will convince me to switch up on that.
>>748344606>thenuse whatever random caster gear you get your hands on>nowuse whatever random caster gear you get your hands onwhat has changed?
>>748344603Why would I give you suggestions?
>talks shit about WoW>proceeds to spend $150+ yearly and continues to play the game anyway
>>748344637said nobody ever
>>748344686>what has changed?That now you have to get spell damage on gear in order to do what you could already do for free you fuckwit, AND now you're forced to only get gear with spell power, thus forcing the game into the same route of stat homogenization that ruined retail
>>748344715>literally the coolest thing everAHAHAHA
>>748344689you seem to think everyone disagreeing with you is a paid blizzard shill so in your mind you're literally talking to the people who can implement them
>>748344720i dunno about dps casters but as a healslut that's pretty much spot on.if it didn't give int it was useless because you literally just can't stack enough +healing to actually make downranking spells viable until the higher levels when itemization starts to include both int AND spell power.>gear drops>has way more stam but less int>passsad days.
>>748344808why would paid blizzard shills have anything to do with implement changes in the game you fucking idiot lmao
>>748344845>if it didn't give int it was useless because you literally just can't stack enough +healing to actually make downranking spells viableThen don't fucking downrank spells? Are you retarded? Why do you think you're supposed to be downranking them?
>>748344965well you see, if you're not downranking then you're always casting max rank heals. if you're always casting max rank heals, you're primarily limited by your mana pool because they do way more than enough healing to keep anybody alive in dungeon content already. and thus, literally no stat matters except intellect.so healer gearing blows cock because you'll get this little neck or offhand or whatever that has +spellpower on it but putting it on only makes you less effective at your role than before when you had the same piece but with +int.
>>748343668We are gonna have to start treating classic purists like retail players. If you really dont like change so much then go play classic, White mane still has a healthy population.
sorry my post was rude
>>748345052>needing mana efficiency in levelling dungeonslollmao>NOOOO YOU DONT GET IT I WAS TOLD THIS IS HOW YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO PLAY THE GAME WTF WOWHEAD SAID I WAS SUPPOSED TO DOWNRANK MY SKILLS SO I DONT GO OOM IN WAILING CAVERNScan't tell if indian bot or actual retard
>>748345078>you're primarily limited by your mana pool because they do way more than enough healing to keep anybody alive in dungeon content alreadyyes you're supposed to be limited by your mana pool, that's why it exists>and thus, literally no stat matters except, you know, the stat which actually contributes to your mana pool. Which was already on the gear we are talking about.
Anyone have some real criticisms about forever and not just superficial ones like "i dont like the elves" or "the artsyle clashes"
Are warriors gonna be the only real tanks or are they gonna do the SoD thing again? Warlock tanks were pretty rad.
>>748342806>white>americanimpossible
>>748345123I do like change, just not these changes, you gaslighting kike. These are not new changes, they already happened in retail and we already know they ruined that.

>>748345220>are they gonna do the SoD thing again?that's literally all that this is
>>748345217those aren't superficial, since the visuals are literally the first order of player-game interaction.But just in case you are collecting feedback for your masters:>New dungeons are low effort trash>itemization is just retail>less character customization that SoD>mega servers>algorithms that decide player interaction
>>748345194i don't see your point? mine was that caster gearing was boring because having more intellect rarely makes you feel stronger, but it's so far above every other stat that not stacking it is just gimping yourself. the difference between a healer fully kitted out in dungeon blues and a healer in random eagle and owl greens 10 levels out of date is really just that the latter has to drink more. it's just not fun to do dungeons, get gear, and then feel like nothing you did actually had a meaningful impact on your character until you hit max level.
>>748345237downranking spells is not required or intended to be something that you do at low levels and is a rather asinine thing to complain about not being able to do in levelling dungeons
>>748345323>algorithms that decide player interactionexplain?
>>748342451>METZENits always fucking him
>>748345335>i don't see your point? mine was that caster gearing was boringJust wait until all caster gear looks exactly the same and anyone can easily craft blues at level 10, then you'll see what the word "boring" means

>>748345221I can pull out my family history if you truly need to know. I'm in the midwest and just irish, english, german ancestry all the way through.
>>748345429i mean, i already know what that looks like because that's what happens in the 50s. gear starts to feel impactful because the stat budget on gear goes up meaning you can actually start getting +spellpower and having it feel like an actual upgrade.i don't see the problem with extending that further down, getting things that make your character feel stronger is kind of the entire point of the game, be that levels, talents, or gear.

>>748345616>getting things that make your character feel stronger is kind of the entire point of the gameIt's not the entire point of the game though, retail-kun, the point of the game is to feel immersed in an MMORPG world adapted from the Warcraft RTS games.By the way, if they want to make gear upgrades feel better, they don't need to gimp your existing spells by 75% first. That's fucking retarded.
undead female paladinand they just nerfd hunters and wandingi hate it
>>748345619no, he was talking about higher levelspipe down brown boy
>>748345653Enjoy your tranny oc elves :^)
>>748345702>>gear is stupid, all of your power should come from your level, I HATE GEAR HAVING A TANGIBLE BENEFIT THAT'S WHY I PLAY MMOSYeah I remember how everyone hated classic because spell casters didn't need spell power on every piece of low level gear. Remember that everyone?Oh wait, everyone loved classic and nobody complained about that. In fact they complained about the opposite case in retail.

>>748345646Metzen has always had a very minor part in the Warcraft story. His say in the lore only took over as more and more of the old staff left and he was the only one still around.

>>748345927mmm yeah more fog and less visual clarity, exactly what I wanted from classic+
>>748345861Warcraft 3 and WoW are literally all him so I have no idea what you're implying.
>>748345708i mean, if they didn't gimp spell damage but did add decent caster gear in the earlygame, they'd have to do something worse like increase mob health to compensate. the game, as it is, is balanced around not being able to stack a bunch of spell power until higher levels.also, if you really wanted to feel immersed in a world adapted from warcraft RTS, you'd actually despise the game for forcing night elves and undead into factions that they realistically would never work with. that's truly immersion-breaking.

>>748345927>>748346020I can literally see everything just fine. Max graphics are beautiful. Not everyone cares about the shit you care about.
>>748346035>zero argumentyou are like an animal that does not know when to let goyou misfired your initial shitpost because you are illiterate, you refuse to accept itthere's nothing to be done to help you at this point. you are both parts dumb and deluded, and it cannot be solvedi can only hope your fart-filled brain develops to sentience and you look back at this day that i, the FAVELA SLAYER, felled you on this field of battle*flaps my cape and departs your wretched presence*
>>748346078yeah, but that doesn't mean throwing balance out the window and letting casters completely dunk on melees. don't even lie, i know you'd be losing your shit over casters being insanely overpowered and screaming that blizzard can't balance for shit if they didn't do this.
Why does it run like shit? I only get 140fps on ultra. Thats insane, i can play more intensive games on 4k
>>748346127actually, on second thought it's more likely you'd be screaming about how blizzard is making leveling trivial and retail-like because casters are deleting mobs in a single fireball, and how THAT'S not in the spirit of classic or whatever.
>>748345986Reread my post esl shitter.
Do "people" really pay $150+ yearly for an mmorpg in current year? And then it still has paid expansions and even paywalled races when their shitty game is already among the most expensive to play. Is it all olds with a sunk cost after sinking so much of their life into one fucking game? Disgusting
>>748346127>yeah, but that doesn't mean throwing balance out the window and letting casters completely dunk on melees.It was already balanced nigga, it's levelling, nobody gives a shit
>>748346184It's because it's one mega server. It's the data, not the game graphics/processing.
>>748346208Warcraft 1 is a warhammer ripoff, wc2 is metzen and others and from then on it's just metzen. I'm not ESL you're just mad at the world.

>>748346251>wc2 is metzen and others and from then on it's just metzen.WC3 was written by Knaak actually
>>748346216you can't have it both ways, dude. if it's leveling and nobody really gives a shit, then there's been no change because gear worked this way at max level anyway.
Insane what they did to warriors. Class will actually be nonfunctional at 60 with the current rage changes.
>>748346319>you can't have it both ways, dude.I can have it both ways because that's how the original game was.
>entire thread derailed because one stupid brown monkey is flipping his shit over caster shit nobody cares aboutnews flash clothcuck, martialCHADS run this gameevery single iconic item? every single coveted piece of gear? every single class quest people still fondly remember? it's all for MELEE GODSyeah bitch you like this axe? it makes me spin. i got it from a random ass leveling dungeon, and people are still going to be talking about this axe 20 years later because it's cool as fuck. what's that? staff of the gay buttraping faggot? it has awesome stats? nobody has ever nor will ever remember this item because it's fucking BORING
>>748344441Additionally, the 'Classic' model is just the retail model with a classicesque texture and some bespoke animations. It's not the actual classic model and animation rig, hence why there are weird errors and mistakes. Dwarf and Humans both have different idle stances compared to Classic.
>>748346420>ruining classic mechanics and turning it into retail is something nobody cares about Actually quite a few people care about this Sanjay, stop trying to gaslight
>>748346417dude. come on. i'm trying to give you the benefit of the doubt here. maybe that was a mistake.
You realize they're gonna add more stuff to the game, this is not a release and forget deal.They did forsaken paladins to tie with the new War3 campaign and coolness factorSunwalkers are still possible.
>>748346481>Sunwalkers are still possible.
I don't know what to play on release
>>748346481i don't really care what they add, it's not gonna matter for me since i'm a druid nigga and they're not adding any more druid races than we'll have at launch
>>748346463>no argumentI accept your concession
>>748346364Warriors will be buffed. Trust the plan
>>748346289...no it wasn't? What's your source?
>>748346481why not just go play retail
>>748346550yeah yeah, whatever. i see this was an exercise in futility because you're too stupid to really even understand your own point. go ahead, you can have the last word if it makes you feel better.
>>748339663>Bots already in the betalol. dead before arrival
>>748341062That seems like an easy enough fix, if this really is the case.Nothing to worry about.t. already leveled a balance druid in turtle wow
>>748343750the HD is inferior in general but disgustingly inferior when it comes to movement animations, kind of the opposite of humans where the animations were okay but the upgraded looks are mostly horrendous
>>748346251You're just completely wrong. Warcraft was always a collab. When Metzen is allowed to write on his own you get garbage like sc2.
>>748346558reality?
having a tough time determining if this three-hour long melty means the game is good because /v/ hates it, or if it's a blizzard shill running a false flag to make the game's haters seem retarded.am i losing my touch, bros? i used to be able to instantly clock shitposters.
>>748346645No, Metzen was the lead designer and writer for literally everything you love.
ugleh
>>748346693Man, you really are adamant on being wrong
>>748346517the uninstall wizard
>>748346685considering literally every single thread since announcement has shat on this game for the laziness, promise breaking and retail features I'd say most people hate it
>>748342280This one is worse.
>>748346684Okay, can you show me that reality in the form of an actual source and not just pulling it out of your ass?
>>748346720mmmm smoke haze, totally how i remember vanilla
>>748346685Nah it's just a mix of some people shitposting and some people legitimately wanting classic+ to succeed. There's lots of real nostalgia going on so many people are waiting and hoping Forever turns out good (god even I would like that) but it's blizzard we're talking about. They'll fuck it eventually.
Warriorbros...its actually fucking over...
I still don't get the point of Sky Elves
>>748346802Yup, we either reroll undead pally or just stop playing.
Can't wait to make my millionth hunter with professions in mining and engineering again once this releases
>>748346838more pallies mean more tanks, right?
>>748346720Agree to disagree.>>748346728If I'm so wrong then you can easily bring up the truth then right?
>>748346798>They'll fuck it eventually.>eventually.It's already fucked. Nothing about this looks promising.
>>748346903You think the trans elves are the worst blizzard can do?Oh boy you're in for a joyride.
>>748346903Doomposters really are the most miserable motherfuckers on this site

hmmm...
>>748346876tanks?You better reroll to a dual wield class, son, two handers will be scarse af.
>>748346517The race class combinations you have played on the last x vanilla experiences of course!
>>748346798i mean yeah, i'm gonna give it a shot regardless. i don't expect much, but i have wow tokens just sitting there collecting dust and i only need a sub to play it so i might as well.

>>748345323As someone that watched the destruction of incendious I concede that mega servers are the way to go. The modern internet users just cannot be trusted with the 2000s style servers. It does suck to lose the sever community (my friend and I were seeing different chats when we were playing the beta) but it does incentevise you make more friends.
>>748346882
So...Chris Metzen still?
>>748346876lol, lmao. the undead paladin experiment was already tried on epoch, all it resulted in was 20,000 ret monkeys spamming LF heals and LF tank.if anyone's going to actually step up, it's gonna be druids.

>>748347086Hmm, I'm reading Chris Metzen in this picture.
>>748347030>>Releases another new WoW ClassicIt's not, during the expo they specifically said Forever takes place in a different continuity.
>>748347163>actual dialogue writers aren't writerslol>Also why are both your posts so low res?Because it's an 18 year old youtube video, showing the original credits, not the ones from reforged that you posted

>>748347136>druidsAs if.Warriors will still be the main tanks. Always have, always will.
I think mage is gonna be underrated. Data shows that not many are going to play mage because the kit is so similar and it got nerfed. But it's still a hero class and gonna be in great demand like the start of TBC.
>>748347209chris metzen
>>748346948It's not doomposters. It's mostly two groups:>Brownoids who can't afford a subscription and have been seething at the game for 10+ years while glazing every private server they come across.>TORtanic fags on their Discord servers chasing that high without realizing that WoW isn't fucking Concord.
>>748347269You're assuming TBC is going to happen. Blizzard already officially confirmed it's a separate timeline and supposedly someone mentioned the Dark Portals won't be opening in this one.
>>748347232Dialogue writers are just filling in what's said by characters they don't write or create the actual story anon. A dialogue writer isn't someone whos saying "yeah sky elves". Holy fuck you're retarded.I used this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19avS9zSRRY It's 8 years old, how could it possibly be the reforged credits? You dumb fucking moron.
>>748347283lmao this cope at the basic fact that normal people can see how dogshit the game looks
>>748343123undead have holy priests since the release of wow btwall your arguments are completely meaningless
>>748347338Normal people don't spam threads day in and day out while reposting the same screenshots, Ranjesh.
>>748347283Yeah, zoomers are addicted to everything being a controversy and problem and being mad at everything. It's honestly tiring.
>>748347328>Dialogue writers are just filling in what's said by characters they don't writeCan you go be stupid somewhere else please
>>748347338Meanwhile, normal people, seeing the game
>>748347375>if I cut off part of the sentence I can form a new sentence and pretend I'm having a real conversation!God you're such a fucking lil faggot.
>>748347321>Dark Portals won't be opening in this one.so this will be just WotLK/Cata/MoP situation where they add zones on azeroth?
>>748347358yeah it's actually pretty normal for normal people to warn each other of potential danger in western society, I know you're not used to that in Bangladesh
>>748345903enjoy your tranny devs on official servers xister ;^)
FF15 troons ITT malding that they lost
>>748347414Yes, we're going into Azeroth zones and they will change and update over time or become available.
>>748347382>youtube comments>normal people LOL
>>748347382those are not normal people. those are failed normalfag s and kike cocksuckers. normal people do not play wow.
>>748347459so how the fuck is it different from retail?
>>748347414Probably. There's more than enough to work around with:>Turn Gilneas into a fully fleshed out zone rather than a fucking instance.>Completely retool Quel'Thalas.>Turn Kul Tiras into a fully fleshed out zone.And so on, and so forth. If they're smart they'll also churn out new races with new starting zones (like the Worgen) for people who want to join/reroll new characters.
>>748347495Because it's Vanilla and we're locked to 60. It's horizontal progression. New things will happen but old stuff won't go away.
microsoft jeets ITT malding that the majority of people despise MMO freaks
>>748347414Maybe we'll get new zones planned for classic that were datamined in vanilla, like Emerald Dream or their original idea for the Dragon Isles
I'm thinking of coming back after the last time I've played it was like 20 years ago.I'm thinking about starting as a warlock but from what I remember the dot spec kinda sucked in original release.Also are the mining/harvesting professions still the go to money making jobs or the bots fucked those up?
>>748347551shut the fuck up zoomer
>>748346551That's my worry. They completely fucking raped rage. If they buff it instead of restoring the previous version of rage, warrior is gonna be boring as fuck.
>>748347254that's only really been because the other tanks were gimped on purpose. paladins had no taunt and druids were already better than warriors pre-raid, they just didn't scale. if forever solves those issues, which it seems like it will, the days of warrior dominance are over.
>>748347529>we're locked to 60Says who?>horizontal progressionHorizontal progression is impossible in WoW. It contradicts the entire game formula.
>>748347529>Because it's VanillaBut it's obviously not, it's just retail with the expansion content removed
>>748347573lmao seething kike cocksucker
>>748347565No one knows yet, it's only beta and we're stuck at level 20.
>>748347117Yeah, like a collab.....like I said......whoa
>>748341159>drop from 600k to 60k in just a weekAahahahahah
>>748347597>it's not vanilla, it's just vanilla!
>>748345885He's technically right, I've been encountering several quests that are bugged, or in my case, since I play in a language that's not English, lots of new quests are untranslated, they literally have no title or description, you only know what to do thanks to the English text it shows in the new quest tracker.
>>748347631>People reached lvl 20 in a week.Shocker, I know.
>>748347615>No one knows yet, it's only beta and we're stuck at level 20.oh
>>748347592Literally the developers? Do you just walk into thread being a retard? Go watch the blizzcon announcement and like 3 trailers they released, jesus.It's not impossible, they just add new raids that have resist requirements or huge quest lines for attunement etc. New bosses and raids without necessarily better gear. There's also a whole legacy system or whatever.>>748347597No, I've been playing for a week now. It's literally just Vanilla with added stuff. It plays nothing like retail at all.>>748347603I'm not one of your imaginary villains, take your meds.
i’ve gotten over a lot of my initial gripes but the server sharding is still something i can’t get past. are they just too lazy to balance servers normally?
>>748347638>Retail client>Retail UI>Retail Transmog>Retail server structure>Retail graphics>Retail character models>Retail balance>Retail class design>Retail item design>Retail group finder>Retail racesYeah totally "vanilla", check out these vanilla elves
>>748347628He's still the lead. It's still his story. Always has been.
>>748343368>FOGGED.com
>>748347565All professions got a huge buff with the new camping feature. Basically, any professions, even gathering ones, can make a new item that they can set down next to a campfire. Anyone who thrn sits next to the campfire for a minute gets an hour long buff based on whatever items were placed
>>748347732Usually story leads are the first person on the list, sweety.
>>748345568At least in the beta the RP server is totally separate from PvE. There is Hardcore too.
>>748347732Hi Chris but if that's true, you must have suffered severe brain damage sometime between WC3 and TBC being released, so sorry to hear you completely lost whatever talent you had in that tragic accident
>>748347690>New bosses and raids without necessarily better gear.then theres no incentive to do them
>>748342216Wasn't the game already balanced around not needing spell power for leveling? Why change it?
>>748347730>Retail group finderRetard detected. Imagine crying and seething over something you have no actual knowledge of lmao
>>748347565Dots can crit now. Harvesting profs wont make much on a megaserver unless you can control a highly valued herb/ore.
>>748347784This game looks garbage and I won't be playing it but to play devils advocate, what do you think Tier 5 was in TBC?
>>748346754The fuck. They nerfed my obnoxious gnome look. Good thing I quit more than a decade ago.
>>748347730God these fucking things are hideous. They look like those gay plants in GW2 and they were also gay in that game. Trannies really have no sense of beauty and must force their creative ugliness into everything.
>>748347784>then theres no incentive to do themThere's plenty.More raids, means faster gear aquisition by being less reliant of weekly cooldowns.You can also add new reputation rewards and stuff.
>>748347730It's not retail, the UI is actually brand new and unique to Forever (I personally enjoy it more than vanilla or retails UI I love the gold/bronzing). Who cares about transmog. The server structure is literally an entire new thing, nothing like retail as well and you interact with people like you did in Vanilla. The graphics are better than retail, in fact retail should be begging for this lighting. I don't care about character models because I'm not an autist. The balance is literally the same as vanilla besides changes that are unique to Forever. Class design is all unique and new (or in the case of rogue literally untouched and boring). Items are all cool and unique and new to forever. Group finder is nothing like Retail it's more like TBCs but worse? Idk it's like having your message in general chat always on, nothing special. Nothing retail about skyborne, its just elves. Whoopdy do.>>748347776Yeah, and he literally is. >>748346882 here's the picture if you somehow forgot because you're retarded. Not only is he first, he gets his own separate panel first.
>>748347813>what do you think Tier 5 was in TBCT5 sets are better than T4 tho.
>>748347565aff locks are probably still going to blow cock due to curse of agony still conflicting with their other required utility curses. you're going to need 3 other warlocks in the raid to justify you not casting elements, shadow, or recklessness, and a lot of the content is going to be 10-20 man so good fucking luck with that.
>>748347784Sounds like a you problem man. Personally, I like more content in my games.
>>748347871As the other anon said, I'm sorry you suffered a very tragic brain retardation between wc3 and sc2 then, Chris. It seems your 10 year retirement didn't help either.
>>748347915>Personally, I like more content in my games.show parses
>>748347896didn't they copy from retail and change some of them into Banes
>>748347891And?
>>748347942Why are you bringing up SC2? I don't give a single fuck about Starcraft.
>>748347871>It's not retail, the UI is actually brand new and unique to ForeverIt's literally not, stop lying
>>748347968Because you very clearly wrote an awful story in it. It's so bad you're even pretending to not care anymore.
Lmao ya'll are mad as fuck and I'm just sitting here having a blast. How the fuck do you live such miserable lives not having fun all the time?
>>748341168/v/irgins don't have time to play games sweetie, they need to post on /v/ all the time
your paid lvl 20 beta already has thousands of bots running around in it completely untouched by GMs btwthis is just free testing for themthere will be hundred-thousands on releasesame as every other dogshit sharding classic rehash they've created. perfect environment for chinese automation
>>748348003haha jesus they made durotar even more blindingly red, looks awful
>>748347965People run SSC and TK cause T5 gear is better than T4 gear.If T5 was on par (or even worse) than T4 nobody would raid it more that 1-2 times.
>>748347949did they? i was talking to a friend who's in the beta and he said he was disappointed they didn't do banes. if i'm wrong then disregard that post.
>>748347992...i'm not lying though? It's not the same as retail at all?>>748347994So first I'm indian in this thread, then I'm a mutt, now I'm apparently chris metzen? Interesting.>>748348032>redAre you color blind?
>>748348035yes and?
>>748348096>Are you color blind?....ok you're a bot
>>748348096>Are you color blind?are you about to be a pedantic faggot and tell him "akshually, that's orange"?what do you think deep orange is most derivative of?
>>748348128>>748348131It is orange though.
>>748341062only retards level using wrath
>>748348141okay retardsurely this picture of RED CLAY isn't actually RED, it's orange, right? everyone has just been wrong until now, i can't believe itput a gun in your mouth
>>748348182That's mostly brown.
>>748348106Are you retarded?WoW players only do content if said content reward them with gear better than their current gear.Horizontal progression will not work until you have 2 or even 3 specs for every class with at least realtively equal effeciency.Nobody would care about frost mage gear if fire mage just do more DPS and vice versa.
>>748348217Sounds like you projecting.
>>748348217Good, I hope we getaway from this mentality. We used to play this game just for the fun of it and not being eternally in the maze.
>>748348217>WoW players only do content if said content reward them with gear better than their current gear.i loved doing heroic magisters terrace during original TBC 5000 years ago because it was just FUNit was FUN to run that dungeon because it was so fucking demanding of attention and team composition, running it with deliberately shitty teams so you had to kite and do wacky shit just to get to the next pack was amazingi didn't need a damn thing from that place, i'd just do it daily because it was fuckin FUNthis game has the potential to be enjoyable without incentive, it has been in the past, it can be againwill this be what does it? probably not, given they've already poisoned it with retail bullshit in lethal microdoses
>>748347784i dunno about you but i like raiding for its own sake. it's fun to learn fights and execute them, at least on more modern versions of wow where the bosses do things and you have to take that into account, not just stand still and press frostbolt for 20 seconds.but you're right that it's gonna be a problem because most people just want stronger gear and classic-style fights are simply not engaging.
>>748348337>not just stand still and press frostbolt for 20 secondswe're talking about classic, sweety
>>748348337Nah, I'm just like you and I think most classic players are. Give me a cool chill night raiding with people and I'm having a blast I don't give a fuck about gearing up.
>>748348542>I'm having a blastthis needs to become an automatic ban phrase holy shit fucking die
>>748339663>Rogue, Shaman, Warrior and Druid borderline unplayablewhoa you mean the late bloomer classes suck at level 20 NO FUCKING WAYand wait let me guessyou think paladin is op right now too right
>>748348571I've been saying this shit my whole life so that's kind of fucked up just because zoomers decided to go monkey when they read it.
>>748348182This colorblind unc is crashing out
>>748348182That isn't red either.
i never played wow before so i don't know how anything works but i saw that asmongold is alliance and he apparently has thousands of simp cucks at his beck and call. will that have significant negative effects on the game? will life be miserable for a horde player?
>>748347236pservers suck at curing the itch because they never feel right
>>748348654Who cares?
>>748348676how so?
98% resolution scaleindirect lighting one step downtry italso the game has a memory leak
>>748348676disagree, nighthaven 2017~ was fantastic for classic, most private servers up until around the covid era were great before they ended up getting killed by blizzard lawyers
>>748339663>>Bots already in the betaThe only real problem with WoW Forever.If there are bots then that means supply of everything will be greater than what players can realistically acquire through organic play. Which means it WILL reach a point where those who play legit will be at a disadvantage. Why? Because the WILL realise that 1h of grinding in virtual world will net them less resources than 1h of grinding in real world through overtime, buying gold and then buying their stuff from AH controlled by Bots. Out of control inflation will happen and GDKP will happen behind closed doors. Boosting will happen and just like any other MMO on the market, it wont be about your exploits in the virtual world, but how well off you are IRL and how much swiping are you willing to do.>hur dur find a guild and just ignore itNo. If I reach a point where I have to start playing MMORPGs as single player RPGs with occasional co-op I might as well just switch to jarpigs. That's the real reason why pservers are attractive. Not because of their features or because they are f2p. It's because they don't have boting, GDKP, Boosting and RMT of anykind.
>>748348686that's why i'm asking nigga, i don't know if it actually matters or not. in something like new world it would absolutely matter, their faction would take over every town. i'm guessing horde vs alliance is more for flavor and doesn't have any actual in game impact?
>>748342659>lore>past fucking vanillafuck off retail troon.
This is just insanity. Its just barely the beta and its already full of retail slop. Especially unfortunate is the fact that all the streamers like Xaryu that shape opinions are shilling the game because they know they will make a lot of money from it.I havent bought the beta but I tuned into Assmongoys stream for a second at there was literal Stormwind harbour. Like what the fuck? How is this classic anymore? How is this classic+? The game looks, feels, acts exactly like retail light. Its basically turned into SoD
>>748348828Bots won't be able to do anything if it still releases as one mega server. We're a week in and most resources are a few copper on the AH.>>748348848You're asking because you're a retarded child. No one gives a fuck about your streamer.
>>748344413So you want TWOW then?Okay. What parts of TWOW?Because a lot of the changes made in Forever were made in TWOW. Things like class rebalancing and making new race/class combos were all in there. Is it the new zone and dungeons? Well Forever has those too.What parts of TWOW not already present in Forever do you want to add?Here. I'll help you along. I think the radio was neat and it should be implemented.
>>748348884>How is this classic+?it's retail minus, not classic plus
>>748348884It's not full of retail slop. Why do people keep saying this shit? Are you just retarded, ignorant, or what?I've been playing this game since July of 2004, this the closest iteration to it other than actual literal vanilla. Retail is literally nothing like this game.
>>748348884>Add new areas to the game!>NO NOT THOSE AREAS!Why do you think SW Harbour shouldn't be added?And dont just say because its in retail.
>>748348902i genuinely hope you're fucking with me and you're not actually this retarded
>>748348924It's literally nothing like retail. Holy fuck you people are annoying.
>>748348884stormwind had a harbor in fucking warcraft 1, dude. it NOT being in classic is the mistake.
>>748348972too convenientwetlands run is a rite of passage for elfcucks
>>748348884anon do you honestly think that a city on the coast, the capital city of an entire kingdom, a kingdom WHICH HAS A NAVY, wouldn't have a harbor? even with the defias BUILDING A FUCKING BOAT TO ATTACK IT being the major plot point of the entire human starting experience? do you think all the human soldiers on kalimdor crossed an entire fucking continent on foot to get to menethil harbor (through insanely dangerous areas like the burning steppes, mind you) before THEN actually crossing the sea?
>>748349004Its retail enshittification at every level you dumb blizzdrone
>>748348902Wont difference will it make? None. Bots haven't gone in full force yet because they are in the process of figuring out best spawns for all relevant resources. Remember that we're talking about people who threaten individual mage boosters will weaponised report system if they don't fall in line and fix their prices. We're talking about 3rd world mafias who threatened one dwarf hunter's family IRL for killing bots on Hardcore servers. Mark my words: Forever, like anything retail, will end up as a hellscape of GDKP, boting, RMT and boosting fueled by swiping dad gamers.
>>748349058Oh cool i guess they fixed the issue of forsaken being on horde and night elves being on alliance then? No?
>>748349223The new lighting is nothing like retail. Are you just angry and shaking your fist at the clouds or what?
>>748349259No but it is modern slop and the idea that something from 2004 needs to be "modernized" is inherently retail in nature
>>748349259>The new lighting is nothing like retailIts nothing like classic either fuckface
>>748345221
>>748349298No it's not. I actually really like the lighting and fog a lot. The view distance is also crazy now. >>748349331Almost because like, it's not classic? Are you dense or what? It looks better than classic too.
>>748349212>Appealing to logicSo uhhh when the ships return to Stormwind they lug all that gear up 20 flights of stairs?
>>748349259just don't reply dudethat tranny has been having a melty all thread but has never actually been able to explain what he wants or cares abouttypical discord tranny behavior
>>748349406>I actually really like the lighting and fog a lotYeah lol love the anti soul gas, just like in the OoT remake! Really having a blast!
>>748349409makes more sense than lugging it from menethil harbor.
>>748349406>I actually really like the lighting and fog a lot.i bet you like motion blur in vidya
>>748349406>Almost because like, it's not classicYour employer here literally said its classic+
classic+ be like
>>748349456Why is your life so miserable? It makes the world look better. Especially because of the increased view draw distance. Like imagine hating this beautiful sunset we get now.
>>748349409>>Appealing to logichow brown do you have to be to try framing logic itself as a logical fallacy
>>748349485No actually I don't. Not sure why you're even trying to compare these two things that are nothing alike either. >>748349489Do you know what plus means?>>748349512Maybe turn your Gamma down then? Looks nothing like that on my machine.
>>748349512omg it's so FVARKING CINEMATIC!!!
>>748349518>AAA dogshit slop graphics slapped over a 2004 gamelollmaoall that smog remind you of home?
>>748349518>increased view draw distance>all covered in fog
>>748341668Dead within a month
>>748347790Probably to get people used to having spell power on gear while leveling so they can start earlier with figuring out how it affects their class
>>748349617Yeah man, I grew up in the 80s and 90s I remember what the world looked like before everything became electric and healthy. Maybe you faggots should try it instead of being such prissy little faggots about everything.
>>748349058>>748348972>>748348970>>748349212What is this brainlet answer. You fucking retard, you absolute faggot. I do not play WoW anymore but being this accepting when classic+ should just be light reworks and some additions and not entire changes to the base of the game, especially when its putting in stuff 1:1 from retail including assets, you will have to suffer the consequences because you are too addicted to see what it happening here. The mass delusion is insane. You are getting boiled slowly yet again for convenience. Black market auction house is another one. The way server ticks got removed is another one. All these things are literal copypastes from retail that nobody ever asked for. "But these are convenienr" hahahhahahah you fucking niggers will be crying about why its not fun anymore in less than a year. You cattle subhumans deserve it.t. Quit wow 10 years ago and has an objective view
>>748349617>>748349661>>748349583>new delhi, wow forever and a post apocalyptic hellscale all look the samehhahahaha
>>748349661It's not all covered in fog though, that's just what the weather was at sunset. You can see the weather being different in different photos. You can see Hyjal here >>748349583 and you can see all of TB in pic related.You're just angry to be angry. The graphics are fucking great. https://streamable.com/jnokyphttps://streamable.com/v49p8z
>>748349683>quit wow 10 years agoCool man, continue fucking off then instead of being a retard around me.
>>748347321I'm not talking about tbc anon, I'm saying mage is going to be in demand like it was for when anniversary tbc launched
>>748349683>i haven't played wow in 10 years>i didn't play classic>now let me tell you what wow SHOULD beain't nobody dumber than you, nigger. you're not the target audience.
>>748349742EW
>>748349237What come out of this?I remember he stopped making videos but came back a week after
>wahhhhhh fogLooks fine to me
>>748349774t. shiteating shillfuck off back to retail
But how does it run with all the fancy new raytracing bullshit and other shit?
>>748339663>RogueWhat'd they do to rogue? Searched the thread and nobody actually brought anything up.From what I understand Sap no longer breaks stealth (a fantastic change that was in the game from TBC to now, makes using them for dungeon / open world CC much more reliable), and merely swapping targets no longer breaks combo points (eg if you blind a second target, you no longer lose points on the first).I look forward to playing Rogue again. It's my favorite class, but in vanilla it missed a lot of QoL that came in TBC and beyond.>Streamers taking over megaserversPlay on the RP shard. You will avoid 100% of streamer followers and modern Retail audience. At the cost of a few ERPers and cringelords.
>>748349785classic is vanilla moron, why do you need to have played classic specifically to understand the decline of wow? the decline started in 2006.
>we NEED to add a cutesy elf race to horde or no one will play them!>everyone is playing the rotten, falling apart, jaws missing race
>>748349805Nice to see they've done literally nothing to make nights darker even though they've had the technology in retail for more than 10 years
>>748349774I played classic releasw to 60 retard, but I dont count that as active wow player. I played vanilla in 2005 and tbc, I quit mid Wotlk because I was not cattle too addicted to say no to blizzard when I saw the direction, they were destroying the base of the game. Wotlk literally paved the way to all things that would destroy what made wow good. Kill yourself, you are talking to a literal prediction god.>>748349785Yes retail niggers like you are. I know.
>>748349806Why do you categorize things as if they are different? I've played all versions of WoW since 2004. From beta, launch, classic, SoD, every expansion. It's all the same fucking shit. Calling someone a shill because you disagree with them just makes it seem like you have no intelligence.Forever is nothing like retail and I honestly believe any person who truly says this and believes it has probably never touched either version of the game.>>748349810So, it's not raytracing they manually did all the lighting updates in the game which is why it's unique to Forever. The game runs perfectly fine, BUT there is a known memory leak that triggers usually pretty instantly when you go to major cities or just slowly over time that wreaks FPS. Outside of that for some people with shitty internet because the beta is only one mega server the data throughput slows their games down and there was an issue with europeans having worse latency that they were bypassing with VPNs using NA as the location although I'm unsure if that's still a problem.
>>748349880erm that doesn't sound very accessibility inclusive, chud
>>748349742
>>748349821Rogue got ruined, because they didn't do shit to it. At least from 1-20 there's nothing new or special about it. Meanwhile they buffed the fuck out of druids and gave them thistle tea and threat pots and a new form if they collect the full fang set from WC. So once you hit 20 in beta right now as a rogue you can't join any group for WC and are forced to PvP. >>748349880I think it will be darker in some places. Echo islands are super dark at night, like creepy af dark and spooky it's really cool. They also are still adding weather effects and stuff that are gonna be more intense so night might be more intense. It depends on moonlight and stuff for the zone and area as well I've noticed.>>748349906No one cares, retard.
>>748349915It isn't. Go play the game or just keep bitching because apparently that's what you want to do. Who fucking cares at this point.
>>748349908>Forever is nothing like retaithe only thing setting it apart from retail is the expansion content. The systems, engine and game design philosophy are all completely the same. It's as far from classic as you could get almost.
>>748349993>I think it will be darker in some placeswhy would it be darker in some places lol you idiot, night is night
>>748343180>Asmon is playing PvE when the servers go liveWouldn't want to chance another Advertise scenario, man watching him actually lose hair over that shit was a good time.
>>748350023Anon, it literally is just classic in how it plays and feels and there's countless videos showing the damage, xp, etc. is all verbatim the same. It is nothing like retail, the classes don't play like retail, the game doesn't play like retail, the dungeons are all the same, the new dungeons fit right in. Please, for one fucking second stop saying retarded shit that isn't true. Retail is an entirely different game from this shit.
>>748349838because if you didn't even bother to play classic then you probably didn't like vanilla that much, and if you didn't like vanilla why the fuck are you trying to give input on the game in 2026?
>>748349908>I've played all versions of WoW since 2004In other words you are s slave to your addiction, at no point no matter how badly they ruined the game you playrf it (implication is you enjoyed the slop, too), so everything you say is irrelevant because you are clearly mentally ill.
>>748350054Anon...
>>748350018>It isn't.your screenshot shows it is though. Why do wow shills lie so blatantly about something you can plainly see?
>>748350018>Go play the game>uuhhhh sweety go pay 45$ and see yourselfSo far i saw gasslop on every screenshot and video.
>>748350072>Anon, it literally is just classicNigger they even fucked up auto attacking, its not classic
>>748349518dlss 5 wownintendo hire this xir
>>748349993good. fuck roguecucks.
>>748349993Why are you worrying about class balance at level 20 in the BETA? Numbers can easily be changed.>Rogue got ruined, because they didn't do shit to itThat doesn't make any sense. What did you expect, a revamp of all their abilities?
>>748350097What? What is this logic? Lmao. >at no point no matter how badly they ruined the game you playrf it Believe it or not but normal people actually try things before forming opinions on them. So yeah, some expansions were bad or patches and I took breaks and then I'd come back and check out the new stuff. That doesn't make it an addiction lmao. You act as if I've just sat at my computer for 22 years ignoring life and living in WoW. >>748350112And other screenshots have 0 fog at all, whats your point?
>>748350184>What did you expect, a revamp of all their abilities?Remember assa spec?
>>748350192Exactly. You are such a goy you are unable to understand if something is bad if you theoreize about it. You have to play a year to decide if maybe it works or not. You are the literal retail nigger I talk about. You play a game for 20 years and still cannot conclude x is garbage based on your experience. You are actively who destroyed WoW kek
>>748350135It's $15 to try it out, you don't need to play the beta. Also, legitimately, why the fuck do people like you post and bitch and moan in these threads without ever actually playing the games? What kind of damage does your brain have to worry about and talk about things you hate that you don't even try? This is how you spend your free time?>>748350142I think they fucked up hunters and it's known bug? Otherwise I have no idea what you're talking about. As a rogue auto attack is exactly the same.>>748350151There's no DLSS.>>748350153Cry more.>>748350184A revamp of everything? No. But, with literally every other class getting new stuff you'd think rogues would but they dont. So now they have nothing new and still provide 0 raid buffs, etc. So why would anyone want them in their groups? It's a problem. I'm not worried about class balance, I don't care about that. Every class by default should have a purpose in PvE though.
>>748350264No, retard. That's not how things work. You can't just make up whether something is good or bad lol.Also why would I have to play a year? If you think that's the case then you really have no fucking clue what retail is like. Which makes all your bitching and moaning even more ridiculous and hilarious. You can max out in retail within a week. Like, if you made a character today by next thursday you could have the entire campaign done, every raid done, and a 300ilvl easy. This is what happens when you try to talk shit about things you don't even understand.
>>748350330>You can't just make up whether something is good or bad lol.No, YOU cannot. I can, I did with WoW, I literally was right about everything from the start. A 14 year old acddicted me was able to do this, while you wasted 20 years of your life on literal garbage. You are human cattle.
>>748350386>posting on 4channel>mid 30s>talking about a game from 2004>"you wasted 20 years of your life on literal garbage"Talk about the pot calling the kettle black!
>>748350386Cool story man. Want a cookie? What's the metric on whether or not a life is wasted again? You want to start a dick measuring contest? Let's see who has more success. I'd love to crush you.
>>748350439I havent olayed the game for a long time, nigger. You will have your game ruined, I just give my opinion for 10 minutes while I jerk off in my office. What an argument.>>748350457"I am such a normie" is a great argumrnt as to why cattle like you is ok with wow forever

>>748350607Your reading comprehension is that of a zoomer. Nice roleplay.>>748350648Have you seen the internet in general? All that bullshit is americans. Everything stupid on 4chan? It's retarded americans. It's why the website goes dead at night.
>>748350726I've always avoided WoW communities like the plague and this is the first time I've engaged with something non-anime on 4chan in a decade. I genuinely had no idea it's this bad.
