So retail players are having they typical every so often content updates, I dont track these days but its like expansion every 2-3 years + raid update I would imagine like it was the case with TBC/WOTLK/CATA.
But what is the plan for us, the Classic enjoyers? Do we get any content updates for our games or what.
I mean I like WoW Classic but we only gear our characters to a certain point and raid the same thing over and over to specific point as well. Can we also get some content update? New raids, new zones, new quets, new gear. WoW Vanilla its an unfinished story. Emerald Dream raid, Timbermaw, Scarlet, bring Kara to Classic etc.
You have split now the WoW community into 3 different branches, Classic ERA, WOTLK Classic (with whatever is next for these guys) and retail. So its only fair if everyone gets their slice and not just retail.
The 4th branch is coming soon â Classic Hardcore
Vanilla+ would be awesome⌠not only new content to do, but also general balance and stuff. While it looks unlikely atm, I hope they will do it at some point.
Maybe if hardcore classic will be a success (and it most likely will be), theyâll get enough courage to do more experiments with Vanilla.
I wouldnât call it 4th branch but rather a mod. Mod which generates so much buzz but 3-4 months after released will be dead in water.
I mean if you think about it, 90% of players dont make it past lvl 25 on that unofficial server. And given how pain in the ⌠it is to level up in Vanilla, people hype will be quickly extinguished after they die 1st time, 2nd and, doubt they will try again
Because a attempt to develope 2 mmorpgs simultaniously rarely works out to be favorable profit wise as ur splitting the same population between 2 games at the cost of more work?
Also, because for WoW classic to keep itself as a base you would need devs which see gaming through that philosphy and they simply dont.
Ur asking the same people, who made WoW retail so different to classic to add to classic, not forseeing tje fact classoc would just become retail.
Sounds good. They could even use Dark Portal because itâs lame that right now it basically does nothing, we could use it to visit homeland of Orcs - Dreanor. Imagine, reuniting with characters from WC2 like Khadgar, finishing the storyline of Illidan and his crew with Vash and Kaelâthas⌠speaking of which Blood Elfs as playable race any1? To spice things up they could also increase level cap to letâs say⌠70, add some new spells and talents. Heck, maybe that would be a good time to rework that old system with items giving flat % to hit or crit into something more gradual, so for example, item could give you only 0.5% of crit, they could make more interesting items with a system like that.
The idea of EXAPNDING from Vanilla is surely interesting and I am sure the playerbase would live in 100% agreement on what should be added/changed.
Calm down, i did notice , no one can make it right to you gamers, everything is a bad idea bla bla bla , only complaining, be it about Blizzard or about some interesting ideas
Me: Work, kids, spouse, friends, voluntary worker ⌠Number of deaths: in excess of 50.
The sheer number of guildies in Mortal, Mortal too, Mortal three , ect belies this statement.
Man great point.
No thanks guys, ask for one retail expansion called ââBack in the timeââ where they reverse time and do vanilla+ if you really need vanilla+ so much. Pretty much will fits 2 years lifespan of it, along all hype and people jumping on that bandwagon for that limited time. Everyone should be happy.
Also personaly dont understand why you wanna classic + when it basicaly means retail model in every aspect of game, sooner or later when they do it.
There is so many people unhappy about classic or balance, but none of them understand that most of them not gonna get that ââfixââ that suits them. You will get hundred improvements that will suits only certain percentage of player base.
Its all about to keeping flame or should I say 3 flames alive at this point. So argument of more work for 3 games its irrelevant. Classic Andys wont play Retail and vice versa. Each got own fan base with only one going forward. So if Blizz wont give anything to other games the flame will eventually extinguish because its only the same people playing it. You dont get new players. Everyone plays what they like.
Thereâs a lot of discussions in the community around this concept.
Some people are fine with the current status of Classic ERA, and do not want the game to change at all. Which is perfectly fine.
Some others claims that the current roadmap for Classic servers (WotLK at this time, with some changes) is the right way. Expecting Cataclysm Classic to arrive as next major phase.
Some of us think that Classic can be evolved to include some interesting changes, but without changing the core of the game.
As you can detect from my words, Iâm one of those that think that Classic+ would open a new branch and space of players.
In addition to missing raids and contents that were deprecated back the days of vanilla, I would add the following:
Tier sets for all meme specs (Paladin Retribution or Protection, Druid Balance and Feral Tank or Feral DPS, etc.) so every one could play Classic core the way they want.
Arenas 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, 5v5 and All v. All.
New battlegrounds or missing ones like the one in Azshara.
PvP balance between classes.
PvP items limitation to outdoors, arenas or BGs. So none is forced to Rank14 to get BiS gear.
Heroic dungeons modes for latest dungeons (BRD and ongoing) with Tier1 gear quality equal loot tables.
