Gamescom has already brought us huge WoW news in the form of the gear transmogrifiers as well as gear storage NPCs and the fact that we will get to face Deathwing sooner than we thought. Stay tuned for more announcements.
Brace yourselves for what could be some of most exciting updates to the game recently with patch 4.3. Look at what's ahead: new item storage options, cross-realm raiding, cosmetic armor skinning and your chance to battle the mighty Deathwing -- from astride his back!

So they're leaving an unresolved story unresolved, and rather than follow their proposed plan to space out content releases of dungeons-raid-dungeons-raid, we're getting a megapatch. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't they do the latter with 3.3 and wind up pissing people off as a result of over ten months of ICC (not counting Ruby Sanctum since there will be no transitional raid this time)? Why would they repeat this mistake?
I'll likely get downvoted for this, but so far I am disappointed overall with 4.3.

This is my personal opinion, but I feel like Cataclysm overall hasn't been a very memorable expansion. It has done great things for the game in terms of updating the world, etc, but I think they realize that the actual Cataclysm story is rather forgettable, and I think they're just trying to wrap it up and go out with a bang before the release the next bit of content and hope that it does better. Again, opinion, but I honestly haven't cared one bit about any of the raids so far... The only reasons I've not taken a break and waited for the next xpac is that I wanted to kill DW and see the WotA instance. I'm personally thrilled to be getting it all at once so my guild can clear this stuff and then I can take a few months off without feeling like I missed out on something.

Maybe the new 5-mans will offer the transition?

"you were carried through that entire fight!"
"...well so where you, that's how the mechanics work."
"yeah but... uh... nou!"

Being on his back is going to make it harder to punch that dragon in the face..
