World of Warcraft: updates from the front lines
“Finally some answers!” This three word post from Level 70 Blood Elf Paladin Ino reflects our sentiments exactly. While Blizzard had made absolutely no remarks about the development of their fixes slated for the next major patch (Patch 2.1.0) of World of Warcraft, people have been exasperated by the complete news blackout.
But when Community Manager Ommra did her signature bovine cha-cha at the European World of Warcraft Forums with Game Master Tigole’s dev updates not far behind, the community flocked right down over to that thread for some well-deserved appreciation for Big Blue.
We aren’t going to place all that Tigole discussed here. We’d rather have you get the news straight from the horse’s mouth.
That way, if someone forgets to deliver on their promise, you’ll know there wasn’t any misunderstanding between us and you guys. While these fixes aren’t all that’s coming by the next patch, they are what people have been hounding the forums for – for weeks on end.
- The Rogue Situation – the 360-degree striking sweep issue is being addressed.
- End Game Itemisation – end-game items will be balanced and scaled accordingly
- ”Trash” Concerns – non-epic dropping, non-bosses should be easier to clear
- Consumables – plans to remove massive consumable farming
- Boss Tuning – WoW‘s Big Baddies are getting an attitude readjustment
Despite lackadaisical issues with Blizzard’s efforts to patching the game, the Game Masters and developers are actually listening to what’s hot and what’s not in the community forums. So if you think your little concern isn’t being looked into, think again. Expect Patch 2.1.0 to be up in the Public Test Realms first, before making its way permanently to the live Realms.
