WoW updates: What’s under development, Blizzard?

Most of the world’s well-known MMORPGs are works in progress, and Blizzard‘s World of Warcraft is no exception. Blizzard has patch version 2.2 in the works, while the Public Test Realm has already implemented voice chat for testing. But while version 2.2 is still under testing phase, a plausible content addition (hopefully, version 2.3) is still nowhere in the horizon.

Although it’s been a while since Blizzard updated the Under Development page at the official website, it does have a lot of improvements brewing in its kitchen for version 2.2, with a list that constantly gets updated. The development team may also squeeze in an additional fix or two, if they were able. But for now, community manager Nethaera could only highlight a few certainties.

Perhaps much to the dissatisfaction of PC gamers is the voice chat update which would enable Mac players to finally record in-game videos. Previously mentioned fixes for various classes are also stewing in the development team’s pots, despite the fact that there is no confirmation if all these address player’s issues with their class specialties and talents.

For sure, Zul’Aman and the 25-man dungeon, Sunwell Plateau, is definitely baking in the oven right now, as most people have heard from interviews in the recently concluded Leipzig Games Convention. There is more info to be had, but Nethaera said, “There are some details that aren’t ready to be shared yet.” So it’s back to the waiting, gaming game again for us – not that we’d have troubles with the gaming part.
