11.2 was a wierd launch

11.2 has been a wierd launch.

I was kinda excited to get back into WoW now with a new season.
Looked at the features for 11.2 for 5th of August and thought it would keep me busy until 12th.
But at this point the patch has been a huge dissapointment.

First of all the thing that i thought would keep me busy the most was the:

Ecological Succession

The poster for the launch includes Ecological Succession as one of the features in the patch for 5th of August.
But since we have to complete chapter 4 of the story, which releases 12th of August, it’s locked.
In short terms means that this feature releases 12th and not 5th as stated.

========================================================================
Secondly, the release of the new delves was semi exciting, i’ve enjoyed Delves this expansion and thought it was a good addition for me who prefers doing content alone or along with my GF rather than find randoms.

Delves

The delves is kinda pointless at this point, seeing as you can't get gear, nor progress the delvers journal until the season starts.

So just entering the delve just too have a look around seems of little to no interrest to me.
I will just put down Mythic dungeons in here aswell, seeing as only m0 is available so it’s not that rewarding either, although you do get some decent loot from m0.

========================================================================
My third issue with this patch are the bugs.
I’ve been playing this game on and off since TBC.
And my god has WoW never been this bug filled.
I was excited to head into PvP… but after today…

Bugs and issues

-The spirit healer in BGs seems to dissapear nearly every BG i've taken today.

-several spots within the new zone are spot you get stuck in a DC loop in.
-The lag today was horrendous, at some points the mobs didn’t even bother to respawn.
-I’ve had to log in and out of the game constantly today to fix issues regarding the new zone, for one the Reshii Wraps didn’t enter your bag before relogging, i was looking for them for 10 mins, thinking they were added somewhere in my UI as i didn’t have them equiped nor in my bag.

Just a wierdly bad launch of a patch from Blizzard, which is rare to me atleast.

I will concur with this. I haven’t done PvP in ages, but decided I’d farm some Honor for Season 3, so I’ve been queueing for some epic battlegrounds today.

I haven’t played one battleground that hasn’t been severely affected by glaring bugs and broken gameplay.

If you die there’s a 50% chance the game bugs out and doesn’t resurrect you. There’s a fix for it that’s pretty terrible because you get resurrected with 1% health, and even if you know it you’re still screwed, because not everyone else knows it, so a lot of players are just forever dead.

The lag is still as horrendous as always.

The movement sometimes is all clunky and jaggy and delayed. It’s not good.

Random DCs.

Talent notifications, weird visual effects on the screen, abilities that are being activated non-stop and you can’t cancel them. And more.

I mean… I know Blizzard have been pressed for time with this launch, because their deadline is Gamescom, but this patch clearly needed another 20 minutes in the oven.
