1 week before Official Launch of world of warcraft's biggest video game project in the history of online gaming>0 threadsi am forgotten
I'm having a blast!
>>750307828what do you mean? the beta is over
>>750307750this is a ziv board, the average /v/irgin is more interested in ecelebs crying crocodile tears at Horsefart than an actual video game
>>750307750
interestingly there is no wave of "WE'RE GOING HOME BROS" wojak threads like there were for WoW classic's first release
>>750307750*bursts into laughter*
>>750308114well duh, everybody's busy getting hype for Evercold
Couldn't care less, the golden age of private servers is coming soon.
The only people who care about this are balding men in their 40s.
>>750307995
>>750308198it's been like 5 years and I still can't believe an anon paid actual legal currency to unironically shill one of the worst mmos ever made
>>750308327why wouldn't you believe that, WoW has actual 4chan mods that shill it here for free
>>750308352blizzdrone mods at least have plausible deniabilitysomebody using a modded screenshot to make a shitty vn "mmo" look appealing is a special kind of pathetic
>>750308472at the time i think that ad would have primarily been bought to enrage barry, honestly
>>750308507isis that supposed to be better
>>750308602depends on whether shitting on a permanently berserk australian abbo is worth your time and money
>>750308663there is literally no scenario where spending thousands of burger coupons promoting a bad product to own """Barry""" is somehow worth it
>>750308754>thousands of dollars>4chan ad>barry doubt-quoteslolhyur jumpscare
>>750308789you're implying I have the vaguest clue how much it costs to advertise on 4chinzwhich I do not as I am not a shillget rekt idiot
>>750308858basically it costs little enough that the mario retardy threads were once capable of taunting the jannies by purchasing an ad to advertise the streams after a rash of stream thread deletions
>>750308161really? what was announced?
>>750308932lol fag
>>750308983anon, spending a single penny advertising bad games on 4chan is already bad enoughthat anon might as well have been promoting some onlywhores egirlyou don't have to cope on his behalf by telling me you can afford it because you have a job at mcdonald's
My faggot friends want to play Alliance PvE. It's unironically over before it even started.
>Horde or PvP in 2026
>>750309173layering killed pvp servers
>>750309237Forever isn't using layering, it's using sharding, which is 100x worse in every way. The world will refresh every five minutes while you're in combat, you'll be phased whether you like it or not, you'll never see the person you grouped with or enemy faction player you fought ever again after 1 day. Bring back realms, I hate this new system so much it's unreal.
>>750309145>FB_IMG_
>>750309362>no argumentlollmao
>>750307750I'm staying on anniversaryThis shit is giving me SoD vibes
SoD was peak
what's the fun in PvP servers? Like honestly, you get rogues camping you, it's slower to get to 60, certain classes are broken while others are shit at pvp. If you want to play PvP there are BGs, but I really don't understand why I would actively make my experience worse.Sure you might have fun ganking people, but I don't and why would I let you have fun at my expense?Do I have to be mentally challenged and enjoy pvp games like mobas or do I have to be low IQ to understand PvP servers?
>>750309686in theory the fun is in making the fundamental conflict matter morein practice the fun is in pulling the legs off of spiders and laughing when they can't fight back, which makes me feel big because I am 5'4" and brazilian
>>750309686same reason people invade in dark souls, they're addicted to ganking but fucking hate getting ganked back
>>750309787so it's the same reason people play on smurfs accounts to stomp worse players?
>>750309925>>750309925no, because pvp smurfs are unironically more honestat least they have actual skill to show off instead of some arbitrary "I logged in sooner" numberstill fags, just slightly less faggy
>>750307750>>biggest video game project in the history of online gaming>look inside>It's just the same amount of effort they put into the average Retail expansion.
i will be playing a male orc warrior
>>750308198Xiv lacks interesting endgame content or any form of class build. Only good if you're going to erp
*mogs your blizslop*
>>750307750The pvp is pure wretched dogshit and completely cursed at this point with hypersweat tryharding as the baseline expectation. I am not going to play a version of WoW where any random encounter in the wild is going to turn into a 15 minute long multi-reset raid encounter that cycles through 20 different engineering devices, farmed toys, and potions.There is no economy you can engage with that supports that level of bullshit, so everyone just buys gold because they aren't willing to grind 20 hours to afford pvp for 2 hours. The 100k duel tournament was the worst advertisement possible for the game, to see how fucking retarded and insane things are even at level 30.
>>750311046unironically ziv's high number of classes, being able to access them all on one character, and races being functionally cosmetic (racial stats haven't mattered since stormblood) is supposed to be their class builds
>>750309686the tension of possible hostile encounters changes the way you play the game and interact with the worldyou can no longer just shut your brain off and grind/quest, or there will be consequencesthe 'cycle of hatred' on pvp servers and the endless quest for revenge/vengence is what keeps a lot of people going, they think that their time will come someday where they will be the winner, but this is never actually true because all pvp is solved and anyone who utilizes the best strategies wins every time
>>750307750Did you check /vg/? They make a new thread like every hour or two because the general moves that fast.
>>750307750They've done this three or four times already.Why would you think anyone would be excited this time around?
>>750311046Only a slopeheaded negroid retard would care about "endgame" in an MMO that's designed to never fucking end.
>>750311203I played the new raid and got the rare xbow. 5 days later it was worthless. Don't care now.
>>750308161you could just play a game actually designed for skating instead of trying to shoehorn blizzard's fugly old graphics into it.
>>750311678WoW itself is ironically the game that engendered this attitude
>>750311780>not playing ironlmaoooo casual shitter
>>750307750>touching this gay slop>there are paypigs who've kept monthly subscriptions to it for yearsI would laugh if it weren't so fucking sad.
>>750311406shieet not me cuhi'm gonna get 60 early and go viral
>>750309686imagine you're just doing your thing, leveling in hillsbrad, STV or whatever. And then... you see a Gnome.
>>750312996that gnome? will be megonna be blonde, but should i do the big ponytail, the pigtails or the shoulder length thats down
>>750308161not until the slop dies downhaving 500 vibeservers produced for twitter screencap purposes is not a golden age
>>750312996>imagine you're just doing your thing, leveling in hillsbrad, STV or whatever. And then... you see a Gnome.
>>750308196Actually I'm only 36 and I have wonderfully thick hair.>>750309347It doesn't refresh every 5 minutes retard. That was just an early beta test thing.
>>750307750It's modern Blizzard. Nothing has changed about the company to make me believe that they won't simply ruin this like they've ruined retail. I believe the only reason this is even somewhat good is because they're starting from a baseline of the best version of WoW (vanilla). Even then, they couldn't help themselves but change the gender of certain characters, remove jiggle physics, remove emotes, etc. It will start out ok and then every update will make it worse until it's just another retail. Mark my words.
>>750313453>change the gender of certain characters, remove jiggle physics, remove emotesI was toying with the idea of coming back, but thanks for reminding me of this faggotry.
