Q u o t e:


I guess I missed it, when did Azeroth get larger? When did BC get a new zone added?
The game has not grown any. You have new areas sure. but the old content has not changed at all so the agrument that its grown and we need to offer users a better way to travel in the ever growing terrain does not apply


If you want me to be a smart ass, which I can do. Azeroth got smaller when an entire new continent was added.

Also, what old bugs are there? I'm sure there are some so I'm genuinely curious because in leveling a few alts past 60 I have not really run into many.

Hey Blizz since you are going to dumb it down for the kiddies why not do this.
Move all riding skill mounts and requirements move up a level.
So
75 > 150
150 > 225
225 > 300
300 > 375

Then you've got room at skill 75 for new racial mounts at $5 gold for the level 20s such as:

Alliance
Draenei - Rideable Horton the Elephant
Humans - Rideable My Prancing Pony
Gnomes - Rideable Wind Up Mechanical Chicken
Night Elves - Rideable Hello Kitty
Dwarves - Rideable Billy Goat

Horde
Blood Elves - Rideable Foghorn Leghorn
Tauren- Rideable Tutor the Turtle
Trolls - Rideable Barney
Undead - Rideable Skeletal My Prancing Pony
Orcs - Rideable Wyle Coyote

Q u o t e:
Go level an alt or something. Then you'll be much happier with the changes. =)


I was actually going to start my 6th alt before I heard this...

But now I have no reason to work on the alt until 3.2 comes out :( Well, not beyond level 20 anyway.

Flying at level 60 will destroy Outland -- just like it would have Northrend if you allowed flying everywhere.

Flying in Outland should be at level 67, like Cold Weather Flying at 77. That way, players will learn it before going to Northrend at level 68.

Q u o t e:

Unanswered Questions for Blizzard
  • How will the faction rep discount affect Artisan riding; Honor Hold rep? Kirin Tor rep? My understanding was that the riding trainers had no faction alignment.
  • How will the changes impact:
    • Paladin Mounts
    • Warlock Mounts
    • Druid Travel and Flight Form
    • Shaman Ghost Wolf
    • Hunter Aspect of the Cheetah


I've just updated my original post to include the changes to class movement abilities:


Q u o t e:
  • Movement Speed Training By Class

    • Druid

      • Travel Form: Requires level 16
      • Flight Form: Requires level 60 (150% flight speed)
      • Swift Flight Form: Requires level 70

    • Hunter

      • Aspect of the Cheetah: Requires level 16

    • Shaman

      • Ghost Wolf: Requires level 16

    • Paladin

      • Warhorse: Requires level 20
      • Charger: Requires level 40

    • Warlock

      • Felsteed: Requires level 20
      • Dreadsteed: Requires level 40


  • Players can receive discounts on expert and artisan flight skills with Honor Hold or Valiance Expedition faction for the Alliance, and Thrallmar or Warsong Offensive faction for the Horde.

    Oh, delusions are meant to justify the things you do.
    Oh, delusions never really qualified as an excuse...

    The new areas are what they refer to when they mention growth. In any event, what they're doing is making it so you can get around quicker in the 20+ zones. It's a time saver. It doesn't make leveling easier, it makes it faster. New players level faster, alts level faster, everyone levels faster.

    That's all it is, making it so people level faster.

    Q u o t e:
    anyone saying the game is made easier


    I don't think you people understand these words and phrases. Making mounts cheaper and lower does not in any way shape the intelligence of this game, you are not smarter for farming for mounts for your alts (In many cases it could be considered dumber).

    Also easier means they've some how made it easier for you to kill mobs (At least in pertaining to level) making it easier to get around just makes it less time consuming.

    So no refund for all the mounts ive bought for my 6 80s, people already call this game ez mode and your making it easier..

    Not hard to level a toon I leveled all of my 80s while working a full time job with no rested experience or recruit a friend bonus

    Hell at this point just put a option on the website to buy your mount or level 60 toon

    I think lowering the requirements is a bad idea like DKs I understand they are a hero class but you should not have toons that start out pre leveled like that its one reason I refuse to make a death knight

    Now give the option to start one out at level 1 and ill create it

    So much for having any sense of accomplishment in this game anymore

    Give the option to waste more time, good lord what kind of people are we dealing with here.

    I mean I've been having a good time attacking the idiots attacking something it purely good with no real negative except for breaking their undeserved elitist attitudes but good lord I don' tknow how to deal with this. You should play more single player games since that is what unfortunately the majority of 1-55 is.

    Q u o t e:
    seeing this... makes me loose faith in this game. ever since word of WOLK came out this game has been getting easier and easier. and its loosing the spark that made it fun. flame all you want but i know deep down you know this is true.



    I wouldn't say this is part of that trend; maybe in some ways, but deep down, I know that is true.
