A) No.  He's not.  Theyve said trolls and KT were NOT coming with launch since almost immediately after expansion was announced.  If you didnt know you hadn't been paying attention.

B) youre unsubbed but 'have to play around with guys like him?'  I dont have the slightest clue what that could even mean.  

Un-subbed to wow and complaining (literally, just complaining) about it.  Its ok to NOT like it.  Its ok to voice that opinion, just like his is OK to counter it.  If you dont like it, dont play it.  

...and there goes their attempt at a 'cash grab.'  You just achieved victory over evil blizzard.  Raise your sword in defiance, you internet warrior you.

Not being a toxic asshole - just teasing a guy who navigated a blizzard site to visit a wow thread to let everyone know he quit wow. its ironic and weird. Were all adults and this is a forum site where users can post and comment. 

Regardless - sorry to hear you dont like the xpack. I love it and the vocal community who complain about every facet of this expansion drives me crazy. If you dont like it, then quit. If you have constrictive criticism to give, then provide it. No need to post about it constantly to let the world know how the new wow expansion doesnt fit you. 

Dont forget that WoW and literally every other game you play is made by a company whose ultimate goal is to make money. Advertising a discounted service  that compliments a feature that was just rolled out is just a smart business strategy, and literally has no impact on how you play the game (and you can buy it with WoW gold for probably 100k)

unsure if me disagreeing with you makes me a "toxic asshole" - but if it does, apologies.

Even though this guy got a point in not advertising quitting wow like you beat cancer. I can still see what the other guy means. It is something when you've been playing it for years on end only to see it run down corporate cash grabbing hands. Kind of makes it easier to stop playing it. 

Although I don't play WoW I still navigate here since there's other games besides WoW, like HoTS, Diablo 3 and Overwatch. So I can see keeping up to date on a game that is very much interesting to follow in case of 'it might get better for me' hope peeks up from the maybe grave of games. 

I still like the genre, the game lore, the fantasy of it. That's why I follow it.

Oh I wish I could grab that sword and raise it, but baby boy Anduin and little angry Sally Sylvanas just keep shouting at each other.

But I must give it to them, they got *filtered* done. All it took was a few demons and Daddy Varian to die.

I'm not even surprised... Although that one wasn't advertised, it's certainly not unexpected ("cough" Kul'tiran and aspecially Zandalari racials "cough").

From a corporate point of view Activision Blizzard are failing. Activision/Blizz's stock value has more or less been cut in half since last October, where shares were traded (on NASDAQ that is) for about USD 83. Current stock value of one share is about USD 43. So - again from a corporate point of view - they absolutely had/have to do something, because they are losing investors. IIRC someone already posted those thoughts in the cash only pig mount thread. That mount, the removal of certain items from the store as well as those paid services might be short term attempts to fix the current state (or to keep the stock from falling even further, although it seems, stock value stabilized at around USD 42/43), because they generate raw cash for blizz.

We might still praise Blizz for creating great games - in the past - and revel in those nostalgic memories but times change. I'm up for discussing the current state of Blizz's games as I seem to be not quite as negative some of you - I still love the entire WoW universe for example. In the end ThomasC got it quite right:

You're not going to make her WoW jealous by talking about how your new girlfriend game is so much better than she WoW is.

So weren't they talking about how Zandalari Racials were probably going to get nerfed not long ago?

Guess it would be after people pay to race change and suddenly the racials are found to be way too OP a few months down the line?    Gotta have that empirical evidence after all that a full heal (that can be combo'd with the newly available paladin class to be unstoppable!) and various Loa buffs to choose from actually beat +1% to random-*filtered* stats that other races have.    But hey, those race changers will definitely miss the bonus to herbalism right? ?

They already did - well sort of. On PTR Regeneratin' used to heal 25% of max health every 1 sec for 4 seconds, was not interrupted by damage and had a short cooldown of 1 minute, 30 seconds. I guess even Blizz had to admit that was OP ?

For Reference: Live state is 100% health over 6 seconds (17%/sec), interrupted by damage, cooldown of 2.5 minutes. Still quite the potential for bubble-shenanigans...

Yeah but they had talked about potentially needing even more nerfs after that, it was even reported on this site a couple weeks back.    Regeneratin is still op as hell for paladins, especially tanks with last stand (or in pvp in general)

And yet because the paladins with that one spec using the ability means it needs to be nerfed to the ground for other classes ?

Same with damn Belf and their arcane torrent to rid of zul minions or the same creep in Kings Rest. Its a niche thing for one spec. 

I'd rather have it unable to be used during bubble as a minor fix. Don't need to ruin it for all other classes.

Paladins just make it "auto OP".    If you're able to full heal through knowledge of boss timings or after say, using a polymorph and blinking away in pvp, it's still far stronger than any comparable racials.

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
