TBC release statement

How about this. Since my question was for some dev or mod u can just ignore it ? I srsly don't give a **** about ur opinion tbh.

Oh at least we're in tune with something! As I've read, I do laps around you, we're not in the same tier of content so to speak. Instead I'm displaying your moronic stance as an example so maybe others can see themselves in the mirror.

I'm doing very little myself, a few five mans, messing with professions, hopefully I can get my guild to run a karazhan. Although as foolish as you think you're entitled for a change of outcome by posting, I decided to be foolish enough to think I can do my part diverting the pressure off development who I truly, unlike you , non cinically do appreciate their work and trust their vision for the best.

I heard that TBC will be launched before WOTLK

There's a fine line to draw here. If we put out information as soon as people ask for it, then it's far more likely to be inaccurate than if we put the information out when we're ready to. But if we wait until we're ready to put out that information, we end up in a situation such as this, ya? Which would you prefer? A timeline that ends up being inaccurate and you get bummed because it doesn't arrive when initially expected, or just be patient for a bit and wait for us to put out a timeline we're confident in?

Sure. Why do you think Warmane has to give you a release date? Do you feel like any writer, director, content creator is obligated to give you that info before they're ready? Do you think it's appropriate to criticize these people because they don't give you the things you want, how you want and when you want them... or perhaps would it be more appropriate to be understanding and respectful toward people who create content that you enjoy?

Interestingly enough, the sorts of things you've been responding to is largely exclusive to video game developers and their player bases. Nobody ever complains in such a fashion with just about any other product that I can think of, but maybe there are some out there.
In any case, I will say I do appreciate those that have some understanding for the work we're (and especially our dev and QA teams are doing).

Pretty sure that would be highly appreciated by many.

You're assuming we're not going to give advance enough notice so that you can plan time off work. I would say don't worry about that so much, we'll do our best to give you that advance notice.

Any info regarding some date would be nice....it's been a while now since PTR... really getting bored waiting ?

There will be a prepatch, and currently the plan is to accommodate a lot of the community requests regarding it best we can. Exact information will be in the announcement when we post it. Which I believe will be soon.

I've heard the previous iteration of outland was pretty buggy, i'll at least wait it out without demanding news, freakin cry babies.
Also if is there any word from development on how we, the playerbase can help out on top of actually playing the beta, do tell.

Honestly, the work yall have done on the PTR and the consistent feedback we've been given has been quite helpful and we appreciate it. We just need time to get things together in a manner in which most will be happy with.

Thanks for the information @mercy; lets have a great TBC release!

Simple question.
Are we going to be allowed to change our race in the pre-patch with coins? Coz lets say me playing as Dwarf Priest is not the best choice, but Human Priest is in TBC. Re-rolling another priest is not also a good option after 90 days of playtime and nearly 2k quests completed and all achivments achived.

Quick question too :

On PTR tinnitus (the drums debuff) used to be a thing, then it wasn't, and now it is again (shows as "fixed" on the changelog)

IIRC it was added in tbc classic, but wasn't in the original tbc.
Is the PTR's current state (active tinnitus) how it will be for tbc ? Or might you change your mind yet ?

Thanks

and hopefully, it will have some meat on the bones and clarify open questions e.g. from

Tyvm for responding. Just 1 final question. Will there be race change option ? And if there will be what will it cost?

Tinnitus is currently disabled because it was added in classic but this could change. Draenei and Blood Elves will be available for leveling in the prepatch.

Information about Tinnitus can be seen in the changelog.

How about instead of taking the classic approach (or no approach at all), the drums are made usable by everyone, even if they don't have LW. This way you have the best of both worlds: People who liked rotating drums get to do it and have their desired melee class be more viable for raids, and people who don't want to swap professions don't have to do swap.

Unlike other profession bonuses, drums affect the whole group, and they are just a consumable in the end. Not sure how this would affect the availability/price of the drum mats though.

Just a thought ofc.

Our beloved and highly respected Warmane team, please launch the PTR for us on October 1st. With love, from all the players.
