Rob Pardo on The Burning Crusade

Computerandvideogames.com has posted an interview with Blizzard VP Rob Pardo in which he discusses the eagerly-awaited Burning Crusade expansion pack. Aside from the usual questions (What's the new level cap? What about the new races?, etc.), Pardo also gives some insight into his background as a game tester, and offers his opinion on WoW's economy spilling over into the real world with players buying & selling items for real cash (he doesn't like it).No earth-shattering revelations here, but the most exciting bit of information in my book is Pardo's claim that PvP will be expanded in Burning Crusade to include the much-rumored contested PvP zones, which will allow the controlling faction access to new flight paths & more. Great news for those of us who shun the battlegrounds, and long for a return to the days of world-PvP. You can read the full interview right here.

Ummm if you want World PvP can't you play on a PvP server your very own contested zones? Yes, yes you can!

Yes..you can, but nobody does world PvP anymore; there's no incentive. Maybe this will change that....

I think what they mean by the contested territories is that you battle for control over a certain territory. As said in the interview the faction with control over the territory will gain flight paths.
