Q u o t e:
We'd like to thank players for participating so zealously (and valiantly!) during the Great Zombie Plague of '08. Our intention with this event was to create something memorable and to literally change the face of Azeroth for a few days. This event is just one of many leading up to Wrath of the Lich King. As you know, the Scourge Invasion is now live as well and there is some other cool stuff coming up before all is said and done. Also, Hallow's End continues on!

While we recognize that the event could prove to be disruptive at times, we hope you made the most out of it while it lasted. Part of playing in a "living and breathing world" means that things are going to change from time to time. We meant no harm but only wanted to create a lasting impression on players as they head to Northrend to defeat the Lich King. The Lich King's goals (as you will soon learn) are to turn the Horde and Alliance not only on one another, but on their own kind as well. I think the plague truly demonstrated this firsthand.

So it looks like a cure has finally been found… for now.

Thank you for participating in our most memorable event to date… for better or for…. brrrrrrraaaaaains…




Wow, I was at work for a few hours and I miss the cure :(. Wow, that blows!

The Vanish icon has the same icon as the Ghost debuff you get when you're dead.

Coincidence? I think not.

This has nothing to do with anyone whining. The event played out on it's scheduled course =)

Just make the event anti-grief worthy next time and I doubt you'll see the complaints. People aren't complaining about the dynamic nature of the game, they were complaining about the people who basically went out of their way to be as annoying as possible with their zombie-like powers.

Especially toward the end there, it REALLY felt like a scourge invasion. The major cities were over run. Bodies piled up everywhere... Death, destruction, mayhem and chaos in places that are normally safe zones. It was great fun for a few days, but I'm glad it's over. Kudos to you guys for not dragging it out too long.

I personally loved this event. Makes up for the fact I wasn't around for the ZG plague.

So, what's next? No more players being turned into zombies?

The Scourge Invasion quests (marked on the world map) are what's left of the invasion?

What are the Necropoli? The floating Naxx looking structures?

What will the cure be? Just easier cleansing?

You sure did.

Don't worry, the new plague will put this one to shame.

Perfect timing IMO.

Just long enough to really mess up people's perception of the world, no so long that it starts to drag on or lose its magic.

Excellent job Blizzard.

Wish I wasn't at work so I could see how the "curing" part takes place. Excited to see what is next.
