From the newest preview...
“Player Driven Storyline
The answer given when asked how they will be pulling off the feat of keeping the storyline really player driven, was that events would require players to decide the outcome. If perhaps a great villain attacks and isn't defeated then it would open up another line in the story than if it had been defeated. This way the storyline can also be different on different servers.”
I think WoW will either be a huge step forward in MMORPG storylines, or will be a hugh disappointment.
And it will have the ability to raise the dead. |

I just read that Orcs can use the bladestorm attack from War 3.
None can stand before the might of The Horde! |

New WoW info. One word- "Revolutionary" ,,,='.'=,,,

"Most important, the warlock is an expert in demonic magic who, as he/she levels up, will accumulate a suite of demons-including (in increasing order of strength) imps, felhounds, succubi, and void walkers-that can be summoned as pets. Unlike other summoning classes, however, the warlock develops a specific relationship with his pets. The imp he summons will be the same imp with the same name every time (A demon that dies in combat will revert to a demonic plane and recharge over time.) "
"Blizzard is also working on an elaborate trade-skill system in which players can specialize, for example, in Herbalism, which involves collecting herbs littered throughout the world in order to make magic potions and elixirs (for health, strength, agility, and so on). You'll level up your trade skills by using them, finding trainers, or completing quests-offering a huge optional metagame for those not as interested in bashing monsters. At mid to high levels, players will need to work together for certain trade skills. To create a flaming sword, for example, an alchemist will need to make a potion of flame oil, while a blacksmith that have to forge a particular sword, after which the two can be combined. " _________________ “Then away out in the woods I heard that kind of a sound that a ghost makes when it wants to tell about something that's on its mind and can't make itself understood, and so can't rest easy in its grave, and has to go about that way every night grieving.”-Mark Twain |

What's revolutionary? That you can make a flaming sword now instead of an ordinary magic one? Or that you can summon a "pet" that keeps the same name?
I would, however, call the instancing feature and the ritual feature revolutionary (well, a bit).
I love the people who cry that this is an EQ clone when they know about 5% of it's contents, and instead want it to be a DaoC/SB clone. |

Now that there are two mage classes, and a shaman, I hope they'll and more than just a generic warrior. They need a Blademaster class and some kind of Ranger (archer). |

I personally am not a fan of elves, but for those of you that are... WoW’s fifth race has been revealed as the Night Elves. Screenshots of them will be in "The Wired Issue GMR" for June 2003.

*Mumbles something about elves being prancing pointear nancy boys.*
Warcraft: Orcs and Humans didn't need any elves to be a fantastic game.
EDIT:Hey Sammy you’ll love this. I just read this in the official WoW forum about the magazine showing the Night Elves.
“Also pictured is one of the cats that a PotM rides during War3!”
I guess if we get our wolves, then you deserve to get your tigers. I wonder what the Tauren will ride. Kodos? Though they seem like they'd be pretty slow. |
