It's been a pretty busy night for us here at the WoW.com world headquarters, what with
the Cataclysm beta dropping, the NDA disappearing, and
the new information pouring forth like boxed wine at a neighborhood fourth of July block party. There's been plenty of stuff to go over, from
the new guild perks to
Sylvanas' surprising plans to the newest class changes.
I find myself hoping that there's more to come in the area of death knight changes, but I'm in love with Sylvanas' open wicked evilness, and I'm
tempted to roll a worgen female for the jokes and flirts alone. I'm definitely eager to see what else we can dig out of the beta in the coming weeks as we find out what's going down with the long awaited expansion.
What about you? Are you excited? Or are you underwhelmed by
your class changes and annoyed by
dwarven warlocks? What's your impression of the new
Cataclysm information so far?

I want a worgen female just for the "at least we don't sparkle" emote
Meijnrr Jul 1st 2010 4:46PM
Yes, and now that troll and dwarf warlocks have been announced they must announce WORGEN SHAMANS!!!!!!!!! I refuse to use this glorious emote until worgen shamans are implemented.
Selway Jul 1st 2010 7:42AM
I am very excited :)
Special K Jul 1st 2010 10:20AM
You may want to kill me for this, but I'm not very excited.
Wooo new models...Yay...
Woo new zones... Yay...
I would rather experience it in Catclysm than look at spoilers.

Run! Everyone RUN!
The DOOM is near!
Cataclysm awaits you all!
HE will rise to power and destroy us all!
RUN!

Seconded...I'm purposely avoiding spoiling the expansion for myself by reading all these data dumps, etc... I want to experience it as it should be - in game.
siikalord Jul 1st 2010 4:54PM
Too... much.. my... head...
*BOOOM*

I am absolutely effing stoked about everything I read. I didn't try to get into the beta, because I didn't want to play through everything before it's done (I'll be rolling enough alts to get the complete experience, trust me), so every little tidbit has me more and more excited.
It's a good thing my work has wow.com blocked, or I'd get nothing done at all. *grin*
Stevey Jul 1st 2010 12:47PM
I completely agree,
I also try to read almost as little as possible, to make it a surprise!
thpthpthp Jul 1st 2010 7:43AM

Chanda Jul 1st 2010 8:12AM

Very. I dont really understand why they kept so many of these secret at the press event.
I mean when they said they will change "guild talents" into "perks like guild banners on mounts" it was huge letdown at first, I dont really understand why they didnt mention that the talents like that are still actively in the game.
Basically this really requires tons of thinking about and the direction they are going to. Only thing I dont understand is that why people think that crafted items at 80-81 are gonna replace ICC epics. You cant directly compare them AND some of the crafted ones only have "hit/haste/intel" etc while ICC epics might have even after changes: Intel, Hit, haste, crit, 2 sockets. Your epics wont go away that easily. Specially looking at those green quality gems.. oh dear lord. 40 intel gems as green quality!? You got the idea.
Also troll warlocks are gonna be most OP combo ever! Just you wait!

I agree 100%. I can't count the number of folks I saw in the mid to late 70's in Wrath who still had their Tier 5/6 stuff on from TBC.
The inidividual pieces aren't as nice, but the overall set bonuses are I think what kept people hanging on to their gear. That, or stupidity - I flat-out saw a 77 Mage with T6 and my greens/blues from WotLK were wayyyy better.
Oliver O Jul 1st 2010 8:01AM
Very.
Aryelia Jul 1st 2010 7:48AM
So excited! I loved BC but felt a disconnect with Wrath. Everything I have read so far I loooove!
Dragonight Jul 1st 2010 7:48AM
I made a tremedous(ly epic) squee while reading all that cata info.
EXCITEMENT! :D
Anuillae Jul 1st 2010 7:49AM
Quite excited.
Anuillae Jul 1st 2010 7:49AM
I want a gnome paladin as well!
Gankeddonlethon Jul 1st 2010 7:50AM
OMG the female worgen emotes!!!
I love them! I really hope they don't get removed.
I hope ESRB finds them suitable for T rating.
Gankedd Jul 1st 2010 7:53AM
Also I hope they add more to the dks especially unholy finally converted from frost a month ago.
But it looks like frost will be accesible to 2h dps.
Might go frost again
