Vehicle fights are for retards. If you don't know how to play your class and cannot press more than 2 buttons, you'll love vehicle fights.

I'm confused as to why the OP cares so much when he's unguilded and hasn't cleared Naxx tbh.

But I gotta say, weeding out the retards by putting a vehicle fight as the first boss is a brilliant move.

Q u o t e:
shut up.

NO U

Dear Bliz,

I do not like bosses that have chain lightning, please make all bosses with it optional. This is a total slap in the face.

---

Q u o t e:
1) Create a fairly balanced system for DPS and other class roles in raids
2) Throw it out the window in favor of retarded 3 button gimmicks
3) Give said fight much of the best loot in game.
4) ????
5) Profit!

6) Repeat for the next tier of raid content.

---

First boss = best loot in the instance? I see.

---

Q u o t e:


Its not crying, its saying that a mechanic a LARGE portion of the player base hates should be optional, not forced.

---

Everyone hates taking priests to raid and yet you force us to take you, don't you?

---

Q u o t e:
Seems like most of the whining is coming from people who haven't even done 3d Sarth. Every armory i've clicked on that whined about it hasn't done it. (10 or so armories)

---

That is a complete coincidence. There is absolutely no correlation between people too terrible to beat 3D Sarth and people too terrible to use a vehicle. You just can't make people do stuff they didn't roll man, I rolled a mage, I would kill myself if Blizzard made me tank on a fight instead of dps.

People hate existing "vehicle fights", which are really just Oculus and Malygos so far.

Everyone who is up in arms about the very limited info they have regarding this boss needs to stop and look at the part I just bolded. Chances are good that Blizzard understands what people don't like about the vehicle fights and intended to address that. If, once the boss is actually up on the PTR for testing and he's just a repeat of "1, 1, 2, strafe" then would be the time to grouse about it.

Q u o t e:
We get that you like Vehicle mechanics, we do, but guess what, a decent amount of the player base doesn't. I see NOTHING wrong with implementing an all vehicle fight, but forcing it on people who hate vehicle fights as the only way to progress int he instance is wrong. Please make the boss OPTIONAL.

I added that because I cant think of a better way to say it.

it is optional, you have the option of not zoning into the instance

Wait, a raider is complaining about something because it is too hard/annoying and he wants the raid to be easier?

SUCK IT UP

---

Q u o t e:
If 5 out of 25 people on Flame Leviation were in vehicles, and the other 20 were still playing their characters, nobody would complain.

---

For all we know right now, we could get away with doing just that. . .

But if you do find yourself in a vehicle against your will, I hope you won't mind other people taking your loot, since after all, you say you're not playing your toon in the fight, so why should you get anything? /sarcasm

Hee hee. . .cheeky. . .

I'm not prepared, though. . .still want to take care of some things before I hop back into raiding. -_-

This kind of fight only serves to turn bads into terribads. So many bads can be carried, but not terribads.

Already I can hear their petulant whining on vent, oh I can't see it under my custom UI, oh my friends macro isn't working right in the chopper.


Bleh, just thinking about it makes me taste bile.
/spit

Q u o t e:
The challenge of this boss is not planned to be optional. Are you prepared for it?

---

How could you put a vehicle fight in and not expect this kind of blow back? Were you prepared for it?

Considering how much Blizzard encourages and supports custom UIs, the fact that vehicles still don't play well with the majority of them doesn't strike me as petulant whining.
