The Queue: My dog is insane

Welcome back to The Queue, the daily Q&A column in which the WoW Insider team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Adam Holisky (@adamholisky) will be your host today.

Well, he's technically my parents' dog, and I'm just down visiting -- but he's still insane.

Everything is a game for him, and lately it's been a game to see how angry he can get my father. First, it was running into the screen door on the deck at full speed, head-butting the metal frame so hard that it bent badly enough to necessitate the door being replaced. And now it's ignoring my dad entirely, walking past him, going to me in the other room where he dances around until I let him outside.

My dog is insane.

Rob asked:

For the launch of Panderia, what kind of world events, we expect can?

We don't know, exactly. Theramore is in the picture somehow, since we know that it's going up in flames (or down in the water, or something -- we don't know). There's not much indication as to what's going to happen in the beta, either. Some people have seen potential hints here and there ... they think.

Tangleybones asked:

every lady-panda I've seen so far has been some shade of red, while every dude-panda I've seen has been black. Is it possible to make black lady-pandas and red dude-pandas?

Yup, you can have black and white female Pandaren. And like was mentioned in the comments, only red female pandaren get tails, so that's why you're seeing a majority of them right now.

Logan asked:

Why is Blizzard not letting us fly right away in Mists?

Blizzard has said a few times now that it's not interested in having the up-and-down motion that you do in Cataclysm be part of the main gameplay experience. Right now, you get a quest, look on your map to figure out where the mobs are, fly up, fly over the mobs, fly down, kill stuff, and then fly back. Rinse and repeat forever.

In Mists, the experience includes more of a challenge to get you to the mobs to kill in the first place. This makes the entire world much more immersive. You want that feeling from classic WoW where you're exploring a new land and you run into random encounters, learning the ins and outs of the terrain to get to things better, actually feeling like you're in a world rather than just cherry-picking your way through one? That's what Mists brings back. It's really awesome, and I can't wait to see the entire playerbase take hold of that style and integration again.

Rpandagirl asked:

so, what are you most excited for in mists?

While I know a lot of people are excited about the monk and the new leveling coupled with the endgame, I'm most excited about Pet Battles. I really think that's going to bring a great element to the entire game, and I'm excited that someone is finally bringing a Pokemon-like system to an MMO in an advanced way. Nintendo entirely missed the money train by not making Pokemon into an MMO, and Blizzard could very well be setting up WoW for another wave of huge success with this.

Orkchop asked:

Is it possible to do a Queue where the answers are nothing but lolcats?

Do you really want offer up a LOLcat challenge to me, Ian? Do you?
