normally march hota hai..if u havent played since march u are eligible

 

[Raza7154]

fuck me... the SoR eligibility date is March 2012...

i'll have to find someone new to throw a RaF his way... starting out on WoW is even cheaper now... Cataclysm has been added to the Battlechest... meaning you can now get WoW upto Cataclysm for $15.... a person only has to buy MoP now, and im expecting even that will be dirt cheap in the Christmas sale... i might even buy another account and sell it off later

Blizzcon Dev Interview
The Instance had a chance to interview Ghostcrawler and Russell Brower at Blizzcon. You can find a recap of the more interesting points below, but this episode is especially entertaining if you have time to listen!

Level 90 Boost

• One of the problem's with WoW's success is the number of people coming back for a new expansion and not being able to join their friends right away. People may have left the game during previous expansions and would have had to level a lot before they were able to start playing with friends, which is not as much fun as playing right away. Giving everyone one free Level 90 should help out returning players.
• If you take advantage of the Level 90 boost, the experience will be like Scroll of Resurrection on steroids. All of the skills will be removed from your bar except for the few that you need to be able to kill things. As you complete quests you will get more of your abilities until you have all of them, similar to the Death Knight starting experience.

Items and Professions

• In the future it would be nice to save armor in a collection for transmog rather than having it fill up your bags.
• Hit didn't feel like a bonus, just a hoop to jump through before having fun. It is hard to justify keeping a system like that in the game.
• Tanking gear will have Armor as a tanking stat after Dodge and Parry are gone.
• Reforging was supposed to be something that let players customize their gear to change their playstyle a little bit. It ended up just being extra work (and math) that had to be done if you wanted the most optimal gear.
• The devs will try to reduce the economic impact that the Enchanting and Jewelcrafting changes will make. Enchanting might be able to make some weapons or offhands. Jewelcrafters might be able to make some trinkets or other things to sell.

Guilds and Raiding

• The vast majority of raiders will still have a 10 player raid size option in Normal / Heroic (currently Flex / Normal). The Mythic (currently Heroic) difficulty has just one size to avoid the issues that appear when trying to balance both 10 and 25.
• Today it is hard for 10 player guilds to grow, as every person that is added to the guild means one more person is sitting out. In the future you can bring that person to your raid thanks to the scaling tech.
• The devs didn't talk to the top guilds about the Mythic raid size change beforehand.

Garrisons

• The Garrison will have a farm, mine, and place to fish. Hopefully it will feel like a much, much bigger and cooler version of the farm.
• Pet Battles and Garrisons seem like they would be nice on mobile devices, but any resources spent on doing that will not be used on the actual game.
• The Pet Stable in the Garrison will allow you to assign some of your pets to appear in the world there.

Character Customization and Art

• The team has talked about more customization, such as sub races, for a long time. Some would require different models with different textures. A good way to give players access to the different races would also be required. Perks for the different sub races might also be interesting.
• The artists have experimented with what a brace of knives would look like on a Rogue's thigh. Quivers are another thing that are being looked at. While they might not be ready for 6.0, they are being worked on.

Misc

• Draenor should feel scary, similar to the experience with Fel Reavers in Outland. There are giant Gron walking around, making the world a more dangerous place. Flying mount access will be delayed as long as possible, maybe even past Level 100 until Patch 6.1. (Keep in mind this is just an idea being tossed around)
• Mists of Pandaria only had enough designers and artists to do new raids, as they last longer than a few dungeons. The encounter and art teams have become bigger since then, so more dungeons will hopefully be added in later Warlords patches.
• Making big changes in the middle of an expansion is dangerous, as players log in and find significant changes that they can't keep up with. With a new expansion some bigger changes are expected, so it is safer to do larger changes for new expansions.

Sound

• Sound shouldn't be annoying, which is part of reasoning for the new Hunter weapon sounds.
• The last time there has been so much diversity in the sound required for the expansion was likely Vanilla. There is a lot diversity in the races and zones in Warlords.

And the best bit

• Draenor should feel scary, similar to the experience with Fel Reavers in Outland. There are giant Gron walking around, making the world a more dangerous place. Flying mount access will be delayed as long as possible, maybe even past Level 100 until Patch 6.1. (Keep in mind this is just an idea being tossed around)

Delaying flying mounts will bring the World back into Warcraft

They should just get rid of flying mounts. Flying mounts have sucked the life out of world PVP

totally agreed, it was hell of a fun back in time to camp the flying vendor at hyjal and karazhan.

Yea! They should also adjust the dungeon finder to TP to the zone quest hub not just insta TP inside the instance. PVP at summoning stones was always fun.

My mind is blown after going through the Blizzcon Warlords of Draenor panels, Q/A, The adventure continues panel and so forth. What I really like about this expansion is that we get to see the orcs that defined the history of Azzeroth. There is so much history and lore to explore in this expansion, I just wish I have the time to play this expansion or at least read about the events that unfold. Just to mention a few of the Warlords below


Grom that drank the blood of Mannoroth, how will he react to Thrall and his horde

Your future Lich king, how was he back then.

Thrall's dad back then, the father that Thrall never knew and now he has to deal with him

and finally Guldan, the same guy whose powers Illidan stole to give him demonic powers. He was also one of the first Warlocks and it was he who contacted the Burning Legion and made a deal to corrupt the orcs. Notice that Guldan is green in color as he was already drank some of the blood and is corrupted.

 

[Fir3d3mon]

this is gonna be a huge treat for the lore interested!!

My Warlock worships Gul'dan in exchange for demonic powers from the twisting nether :bow2:

Thrall's meeting with Durotan should be one of the most epic experiences in Warcraft history

Aur ab to battle chest mein cata bhi hai... Asad bhai your time is now le ke daal lo agay pata nai exchange rates kahan pohnch jayen

Aur ab to battle chest mein cata bhi hai... Asad bhai your time is now le ke daal lo agay pata nai exchange rates kahan pohnch jayen

I already have all the expansions uptil Cata, the question is whether to buy MoP or not. Also buying EU isn't suitable for me since I've shifted to Malaysia and WOW players in the region play on Oceanic servers i.e. WOW US.

For now I'll keep myself busy with DOTA 2.

Permanent shift to malaysia? Ohk... And warlords of draenor ke liye pandaria to lena hi hoga

Yeah doing my PhD here so that means another 2+ years or so. Also If I get a job here then there is that as well.

WoD can be played directly considering one can hit 90 directly at least for one character but yeah buying MoP seems to be the obvious choice since it is available at such a low price.

 

[hasanJ]

MOP is 10$? Im thinking of buying it for my US Account

Agay ka nahi pata kon kidhar hoga :tv:
