2.2 will go down in the history of WoW as quite possibly the worst patch ever.

What did it do?
1. It broke sound for a good number of people.
2. It slowed down the entire game (by breaking hardware sound) for a number of others.
3. It introduced voice chat with circa 1996 dial up sound quality that I've never seen anybody use. (Seriously, does anybody actually use the in game voice chat?)
4. It delayed 2.3 (the patch people actually wanted) for weeks, if not months.

Its kind of sad that Blizzard spent months on this thing, considering that Turbine was able to patch in player housing (something far more people are asking for then built in voice chat) in less time.
