WoD comes to mind.
Sure. But that one didn’t give ‘only certain kinds of players’ ‘new’ stuff to do to tie them over. Everyone suffered content draught. This (the ‘experiment’) is screwing over a certain part of their playerbase and I mainly take issue with THAT.
But also I can’t deny I’m very disappointed and annoyed that an expansion this year is very unlikely now. So disappointing in fact that at this moment in time, I’m not even sure I want to play 10.0. But we’ll see if next month’s announcement can lessen that negativity for me.
Please keep Affixes out of raids, thanks.
I like all the dungeons, even if Op: Mechagon is my least favourite.
I do also appreciate the fact that Blizz is trying to keep things interesting during what is likely to be a pretty long space between 9.2 and 10.0. I’ve found myself playing other games because I was doing all the ZM stuff very quickly and didn’t know what else to do. So shaking things up with Timewalking, raiding, M+ and PVP is, imo, a good thing.
I can’t wait to hear what the results of the poll is. Hopefully it’s good.
So you’re proposing everyone has no new content, just because you don’t get any?
Glad you’re so blatant about it.
Yeah. You know… Since Blizzard claims to be so inclusive and all.
Good way of proving that. Screw over a large part of your playerbase.
How about they throw non-big 3 players a bone too? Seems fair?
There is just no way you can push rating in a total of 16 dungeons on both fortified and tyrannical. 10 is even a stretch tight now, 8 felt perfect. Terrible idea. Is resources really that tight, that there is just no way to get new content?
Please no, this is just… what??? I don’t even know what to say - this can’t happen.
Very cool concept and a better option than a year of nothing while we wait for the new expansion.
But considering the choices you had available, you picked some of the most boring and unimaginative dungeons in the game and I really hope you’re willing to make some changes. Tazavesh especially, belongs in the bin.
So there are too many dungeons and not enough?
Also you want 8 dungeons and there are 8 dungeons?
I don’t see the Problem…
I hadn’t played Tazavesh until this patch, and I kind of wish I never did.
Ha, I love your suggestions. This was pretty much my post as well.
I personally think 9.2.5 should be a Timewalking / Revisiting patch. Why?
Because we are now at a BRIDGE. The story of WoW from the past 15-20 years has come to an end, for better or for worse, as Blizzard said. The next expansion will probably take us in a different direction, with different characters, etc. Etc.
This is the perfect time for a “Recap” of older WoW content, starting from 2004 to 2022, as a gateway from the past towards the future.
I am actually really excited about what they will do with this 9.2.5 patch. I am not on copium by any chance, but judging from a select few choices of Blizz lately: alt friendly-ness, making rep grinds not so mandatory, cross faction, permanent mage tower, etc. I think they will be much more careful from now on. Zereth Mortis felt strangely non grindy for aquiring Character Power (aka Revered rep for Unity leggo and thats it) compared to 9.0 and 9.1. Lets see what comes next.
Good news. I’ve received my refund. My gametime will now run out in early july.
Won’t be paying for this game to wait for 10.0.
I hope everyone who doesn’t participate in ‘the big 3’ unsubs in response to this ‘experiment’ so Blizzard hopefully gets the message.
I’ll finish up my 9.2 stuff in the coming months and then It’ll be…
Terible ideas .
First of all, why those dungeons for love of gods ? I know its very subjetcive what is best and what people like the most but comeon .
Second , raiding . Will those raids rewards be balanced equaly ? Because if yes then there will be casual guilds raiding 5 times a week, if no there is no point for 3 raids .
Also with 3 raids there is most likely huge chance every one is forced to raid . Now if u have bis wep or trinket from raid, its just one item , its important but its just one . With 3 raids i can already see how half of gear is bis …
Also what happens with tier sets ? We got tiers? Dom sockets? Or nothing at all just to prevent some balancing issues ?
Tldr : just tell us this is joke and move on , make there new raid ( u got like half year) where we kill jailers evil twin in disguise as one of fairies , if u got time give us new dung , new seasonal affix and bam we are gucci.
Raids - interesting if things are balanced well, it’s how TBC keeps things relevant. Unpopular opinion maybe but why should the vast majority be stuck in one convoluted raid with no worthwhile world content for months, because anything else is “too much work” for the top % chasing CE or thinking a WF race means anything? Most people don’t even get Curve. It’s blatently obvious it’s driven people away from the game.
Those 6 (+2) dungeons though… all season… whoever thought of that what were they smoking and where can i get some?
Timewalking m+ seemed like a broad success, and i’m down for older dungeons, but someone is clearly stealing a living if they think those are the dungeons people want to run. I’m outta here if that stays as is.
In all honestly, i will give you credit for trying something new., but i’m not gonna sub and pay money for season 4 garbage.
the thought of doing those dungeons all over again, some of the worst dungeons in wow history and not to mention some of the horrible trash and worthless bosses. it’s so ancient and should stay like that.
The thought of doing WOD dungeons once again makes me want to wommit
For those who’s looking forward too it, good luck.
I’m paying a monthly sub and yet there is so much stupied garbage in wow.
Endless amount of systems to slow down the game and prevents us from playing the game
Hmm this is blizzard talk for we have milked all content as much as possible and have nothing else lined up so we will just recycle old content for the lack of anything else to do.
While you are recycling older content and expect players to play BFA dungeons I want the brutosaur to return!!! If you can expect us to play old content and you can bring back old content like this then bring back the brutsaur too.
Now the mythic dungeons I agree and would say why don’t you ask the community to decide on the whole lot. Not just the WOD ones.
With regards to the raiding side of it. You raided nathria to get better gear to then raid sanctum to then gear up to raid the jailer the whole idea here is progression. The problem with doing what you suggest is why? why gear up for and end of a patch why get bis gear when there will be no progression past that and the gear will be obsolete when new patch launches. Unless you gate keep behind mounts or something unique or cool no player who is in their right mind would want to return to these unless the reward is sick. I cannot see anyone wanting to return to these raids. Hell you made my legendary bow obsolete in one patch what’s the point in going back to upgrade it because it’s useless now. So I’m all for raiding sanctum again but not for gear because that won’t serve any purpose it would need to be mount rewards or fos or something along those lines otherwise your player base will say meh and go play Elder or ffx. You will need to keep people engaged other wise there’s going to a mass loss of people at end of season 3.
The key focus on this would be execute it properly otherwise all the players who have invested this time and energy will just take a hiatus and end up playing other things as so many have already. I have come back to wow during 9.1 and never raided nathria so that would be good to experience. But I’ve returned I can’t say the same for the players who have already been there done that.
I don’t care what you do in season 4 but I want you return the brutosaur mount if we are going to be recycling old content again. Give the players who missed it to get it during the season 4.
While I’m a non-raider (apart from LFR) and focused on keys to progress, the new approach to raiding sounds great even if a new one isn’t added.
For the dungeons itself… somehow, I’ve seen this coming after one of the latest Hirumaredx videos which did mention Warlords dungeons to be a great candidate:
At the same time, I hope that as the legacy content of Mage Tower and now some of the older dungeons were/will be made relevant, Timewalking is soon to follow.
While an easy content of choice, the difficulty and with it, the gear rewards could use a buff to give a bit of extra spice to our gearing - after all, doing the same 8 to 10 dungeons for 2+ years does get exhausting even if we use alts, right?
Possibly, the reworked Vanilla dungeons’ old version could be revived - some of the rewards are notorious to have been a status symbol or a major display of power and we would get a chance to obtain all the transmogs that are no longer available with the removal of certain mats, trash mobs and bosses.
TL;DR: Happy to see a new approach on endgame (foreseen the M+ part), and hope you’ll continue to revive legacy content to be viable.
Keep it up!
I love the idea and I hope that this becomes a thing for future expansions, however the dungeon rooster is a nightmare, you literally made a list of the dungeons that I hate in the game… I really hope that you will reconsider and move away from the idea of Mega Dungeons
How are you not done already with the amount of time you’ve put into it already?
