Its interesting because Q2 earnings come out next week as well. Normally they wait until Blizzcon to announce. Which in this case is only three months away.

This is the data that I'm interested in. I'll still continue to play WoW regardless of what the numbers are, but I'm dying to see what everyone has to say since there's a damn good chance that there has been another large loss of subscribers.

I was tipped off they was doing it games con but I was told that I was being silly as Blizzcon is if there going to tell us about the xpac would be there.

this means we looking of going into beta in a few months time just before blizzcon? and maybe a feb/march release.


to be fair I don't think xpacs this fast is a good thing, if there going to give us patches like we had it feels a lot to pay out every year might as well level and go next xpac.


anyway can not wait to find out more about it but there is a lot off tip stuff game out 2 weeks ago that kinda made

[Fat Tire]

I am hoping for a South Seas expansion that was leaked a few weeks ago which was leaked by the same guy who leaked wod. Hopefully they tone down some of this raid or die bullshit and introduce better alternative avenues for character progression.

It'll be interesting to see if they break out token subs vs paid subs.

Anything to ensure positive EPS guidance

I'm just kindof getting tired of adding more levels. What will we be up to, like 105, 110?

But maybe* this expansion a meteor hits nearly destroying all life. The survivors have lost all technology and knowledge, forcing us back into a previous age of existence. Now we're back doing a 1-50 leveling scenario.

*no it wont

WAIT who said they had to add levels :D :D ;) ;)


No really they would not do that would they :S :S :S

New class this time..i want to use all these heirlooms i have!

It's speculation at this point of course, but this item was datamined on the PTR recently: Spike-Toed Booterang (http://ptr.wowhead.com/item=129295/spike-toed-booterang), an item to dismount other players - pretty much a Dreanor version of the Hardened Shell (http://www.wowhead.com/item=86584/hardened-shell) from Mists of Pandaria. The tooltip specifically states it's not usable on targets above level 100. If the next expansion wasn't adding more levels still, there would be little point for that particular limitation I'd say.

Do you have a link?

Wow South Seas expansion returns a lot of hits but none of them seem very useful.

It looks like the original story that was up on Redit was deleted. But here is somthing about that>> http://arcadesushi.com/world-of-warcraft-sixth-expansion-announced/

Can't say I am too excited about the South Sea rumors. And if they turn up to be true, lets hope that after Kung Fu Panda WoW does not turn in Pirates of the Carribean direction with gay pirates everywhere and sort of Johny Sparrow humorous theme everywhere.

[luxlunae]

More dungeons sounds good to me. "Recruiting pirates" sounds like Garrison 2.0. Annoying that the major lore is horde centered again (Zuljin). Exciting that islands could be an interesting terrain difference.

My time in WOD is drawing to a close I think, my raid group is now 12/13 and 6h/13 (we're not doing mythic content, just clearing heroic archi and stopping). I look forward to the break.

In other news the beta servers have come back online so beta could be soon. Maybe we see the xpac the start of the year but kinda makes u think what blizz con is going to be about unless there pushing other games.

5.6 million subs. Really curious for tomorrows announcement.

[Pocahuntess]

I have a strong feeling the xpac will be released before the end of the year. It'll be rushed Activision style and serve to only cause more sub hemorrhaging.
