The Rumor!

[Horn]

Because technology sours fantasy. plus they're f'kin ugly.

 

[brad.dude03]

So you have no love for Goblins either then?

 

[Horn]

Tolerable in War3. The stuff is wow is OTT.

 

[brad.dude03]

I suppose you're right, but then again isn't everything a little over the top in WoW? I mean they just have to do that to make the game fun... that's the way the Devs are with everything... screw realism, screw sticking to the lore, we wanna make this game *fun*

 

[Horn]

Yes and no. What I don't like isn't fun for me.

 

[brad.dude03]

Well yes i'm not necessarily saying that it is fun (that's a matter of opinion) but that the developers had 'fun over realism/lore/laws of space and time' in mind when they created the game.

 

[Mecheon]

Gnomes need to be more steampunk and less not steampunk

 

[Hawkwing]

Gnomes did not at all ruin WoW. They fit into the Lore perfectly with the Dark Iron Dwarves, Troggs, and the rest of the action in Khaz Modan.

If you noticed they were in Wc2. Gnomish Inventor, and Gnomish Helicopter. Wc1 I'm not sure. I never played that.

In Wc3 they weren't used because they were at peace in Gnomeragan.

It's as simple as that.

 

[Horn]

they fit in the lore because they were written into it...

They suck, and yes we know they've been around too long.

 

[Hawkwing]

They are a little funny looking but that's the point of Gnomes. Haha

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

Gnomes need to be more steampunk and less not steampunk

QFT the hell out of this quote. If you're going to make a high tech race, at least leave some kind past time reference, like steampunk.

 

[brad.dude03]

Hooray for steampunk! Everyone loves it.

 

[Serbianbeast]

well as blizzard said they will create a new expansion every year from now on (but since they're usually late with everything...) and they'll increase level cap by 10, and this expansion's final, The Black Temple and killing of Illidan is already possible, so it wouldn't suprise if they would anounce incoming expansion in a couple months

 

[Horror.Man]

fyi, they usually announce further info or expansions at BlizzCon.

Still, I almost guarantee it'll be The South Seas in the next expansion, featuring a new goblin race.

 

[Hawkwing]

I agree. This is my guess.

Where: South Seas

Races: Goblin (Horde), Pandaren (Alliance)
(Note: These Goblins are not part of the Steamweedle Cartel, they are Horde only)

Zones: Maelstorm, Pandaria, Isle of Kezan, Kul Tiras, Plunder Isle, Zandalar.

Capitals: ?? (Pandaria), Undermine (Isle of Kezan)

Instances/Raids: Bloodsail Hold (Plunder Isle), Nazjatzar (Maelstorm), (Centaur Fortress(??) (Pandaria), Zuldazar (Zandalar).

although i would love to have my two favorite races in the new expansion, it seems a little too obvious. they both have been huge potential races for some time. take draenei. not only would i never have guessed it, ever with draenei, you would have expected the lost ones.

 

[Hawkwing]

True.. Thats all I can say.

 

[Mecheon]

They have all the work on playable goblins done at the least, and as much as I loathe any Pandaren ideas due to the fact Pandaren are more spiritual than the Alliance, like the Horde, it's easily one of the better ones

Blood Elves were obvious in the last expansion any way, for some faction

 

[Hawkwing]

Blood Elves were told about right when Blizzard announced TBC would be the next Expansion. They were obvious.

Draenei were not predictable. Pandaren aren't really b/c they are too darn fuzzy and silly. Unless you read the lore and military stuff. xD

 

[JacKThERiPPeR]

This is serious. BEHOLD! Now GM's are laughing at us while we don't realize.

This gotta be a joke.

 

[liamthespy]

It's true

 

[brad.dude03]

Wrath of the Lich King is the next expansion.

Go figure, it *was* Northrend. So now they dumb down Arthas.... I've really lost all faith in Blizzard....

 

[Hawkwing]

*ATTENTION* Blizzard finally has destroyed all Warcraft Lore *ATTENTION*

Lore mess-ups include...

- Arthas will become killable.
- Death Knight and more "Hero Classes" released.
- Malygos has raged war on good guys.

and most importantly

DALARAN IS IN NORTHREND!!!!!!! (Dragonblight) (Fighting Malygos)

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mecheon]

Arthas has always been killable. You don't kill the Lich King, just his shell. He can get a new one
Death Knights will have some lore
Malygos is batshit insane. Why wouldn't he wage war on you mortals who are so happily destroying his flight in Winterspring and Azshara?

They moved Dalaran. What did you think they were doing under that portal all this time?

 

[Hawkwing]

They were rebuilding it.. Death Knight thing is kinda weird.. Only Scourge should be aloud to have death knights... I'm sure they will think of some back-up story though.

I don't know much about Blue Dragons.. I'll research em'...

And whats this about Lich Kings shell?

 

[Sgt. Johnson]

And whats this about Lich Kings shell?

He meant that Arthas is just Ner'zhul's host, that when Arthas dies Ner'zhul will move onto a new host.

...Zomg if you loot Frostmourne you become the new Arthas lol! jk

 

[Sion36]

Actually I've Seen a Weapon that Looks Like Frostmourne... just less... Soul Stealy and Less Badass Looking.

If anyone has ever Looted The Hungering Cold you know what I mean.

 

[Dionesiist]

Yes, the hungering cold is pretty frostmourny.

 

[brad.dude03]

Well... Kel'Thuzad only drops it at the end of Naxx... you think he'd drop the Tree Wand of Sunshine and Daisies?

 

[GST_Nemisis]

he drops some of the parts to mendivh's staff, i cant remember the exact name but it beings with an A, atesia or something.

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

atiesh.

Also, the hungering cold doesn't look THAT much like frostmourne when you see it close up, ie. watched South Park's "Make love, not Warcraft".

 

[brad.dude03]

It's true. I've seen the episode, and although it IS badass, it doesn't stack against Frostmourne.

 

[Sion36]

Just a random thought here... but if people make a sword called "The Sword of a Thousand Truths" using The Hungering Colds Model, what does that make Frostmourne?

 

[Mor)L(unE]

No idea. but northrend would be a very logical thing for an expansion

 

[iristle]

It is Northrend! Take a look on the Blizzard site and you'll see they are working on a new WoW expansion, The wrath of the Lich king.

 

[brad.dude03]

Yes, we all know this already. Furthermore, it's going to be gay.

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

Frostmourne
Binds when picked up
Unique
Two-Hand
Sword
Over 9000 Damage
Speed 1.0
(1337 damage per second)
+666 Stamina
Durability 999 / 1000
Requires level 81
Equip: You are now the Lich King's Bitch

 

[brad.dude03]

That sounds about right.

 

[Hawkwing]

Yup.

 

[Rui]

I bet only Death Knights will be able to use the true Frostmourne anyway? But since Frostmourne is only 1, perhaps it won't even drop.

 

[frostwhisper]

The hammer of Ragnaros is one as well... but it doesn't stop more than ten geeks on the server to wield it at the same time...

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

technically, the only real quest of anything is the one you do. in reality, there are probably millions doing the same quest.

 

[GST_Nemisis]

geif twin blades of azzinoth? learn to legendry drop

 

[brad.dude03]

They only give +100 stam. Not worth it.

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

Whaddya know. They really DID whip something up at BlizzCon.

 

[benx_x]

Whaddya know. They really DID whip something up at BlizzCon.

Clearly a melee priest sword ;p

 

[Rui]

Maybe for Paladins? xD

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

No way. I can't imagine some paladin holding frostmourne. That'd be so stupid.

 

[Rui]

Well, Arthas was a Paladin. o.o'

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

Well, THAT joke wasn't received well... my sarcasm's getting rusty.
