they might as well just tell us to come back in 6 months because thats how long it will take for actual progression fights

oh, more qq about raids and shit

3.3 launch
you get the first 4 bosses

3 weeks later
you get the second 4 bosses

3 weeks later
you get the third 4 bosses

3 weeks later
you get the last 4 bosses
you get hard modes

there will be no hard mode icecrown for at least 2 months after 3.3 launch

ON THE TWELFTH WEEK OF ICECROWN, BLIZZARD GAVE TO ME

IN OTHER WORDS, THERE IS A BUILT-IN, AUTOMATIC NERF OF THE CONTENT EVERY WEEK AFTER X AMOUNT OF WEEKS PASSED

LOL

i dont mind them doing that. one hopes that each group is a new "tier" of sorts so icc does not turn into naxx after a month

week 1;
take a few attempts to learn and kill each of 4 bosses

week 2;
kill those 4 bosses again, 1-2 attempts each, everyone knows tactics

week 3;
kill those 4 bosses again, 1 shots, easy is easy

week 4;
1 shot the first 4 bosses, yay
4 new bosses, lets spend a few attempts learning them

week 5;
1 shot the first 4 bosses, yay
1-2 shot the second 4 bosses, exciting

week 6;
1 shot the first 8 bosses, exciting

week 7;
1 shot the first 8 bosses
take a few attempts learning the next 4 bosses

week 8;
1 shot the first 8 bosses
1-2 shot the third 4 bosses

week 9;
1 shot the first 12 bosses (by this point it should actually feel like a raid instead of some errand to go do before going back to TOC/ulduar)

week 10;
1 shot the first 12 bosses
COOL YAY FINALLY WE GET TO SEE ARTHAS, LOL EASY MODE

week 11;
YAY HARD MODES, ITS BEEN 2 AND A HALF MONTHS SINCE RELEASE BUT LOL, WE CAN DO HARD MODES NOW

im biased because of how absolutely fucktarded it was to spend 30 minutes clearing gated TOC 25 for a month then headed back to boring ass ulduar

new content should mean new content

not, you have a fraction of 1 raid day per week on new content, then you do the same old shit

what i really find ironic is everyone wants "hard" content, yet when faced with the option so many choose the non hard modes.

imo what really should happen is hm should be a full tier above non hm

moral of the story, no matter what people bitch about how blizz does raiding, and no one will say it but thank fucking god its not like classic

farm boss a for weeks so everyone can be geared to then farm boss b so everyone can be geared to farm boss c etc etc
id rather wipe because raid is hard, not because i didnt farm boss a enough yet

i dont care for hard content, but if they actually make it accessible based on skill rather than based on X weeks of sitting farming normal modes for the magical hard mode switch to turn on

if i was designing the raid, the first wing would be tuned for pug 25 mans (not 1 shots, fuck off people thinking pugs are supposed to 1 shot everything like everyone assumes in TOC 25 now)

the second wing and third wing would be tuned for guilds like havok to be working on progression (they should be able to clear it in a matter of a few weeks of attempts/learning)

the final wing would be tuned for guilds like havok to be progressing on in a month/2/3months (they should be able to kill arthas without wiping @ him for weeks straight)

your limiting access to arthas should be because it takes a long time to clear up to him in a week, which you make shorter every week by people knowing the tactics and getting better at the previous encounters, not that theres some magical zone wide buff that systematically nerfs content every week

i guess the "limit x attempts per week" thing is just going to be used as a check to the "extend raidid" function
which seems to work well, people put too much thought into the limit of attempts, its not like limiting a boss to 10 attempts actually accomplishes anything for stopping a raid group anyway, clearly if you have wiped 10 times, the group is either not fit to keep going or people have given up and left the group by then

its the exact same thing as classic

except, instead of wiping to a gear check, you wipe to a "this boss isnt yet accessible" error

artificial blocks because you havent farmed enough ====== artificial blocks before you havent waited long enough time since patch

faith in humanity dwindles every time i read a forum thread @ mmo champion of something like this

50% of the posts are from people who blatantly did not read the news post or did not process the words in their head as they read, therefore are making comments based on statements that are in no way, shape, or form, part of the news post

25% of the posts are people who somehow manage to understand the post but have no idea what they are saying as they post

10% of the posts are people who may or may not have read the post, but are calling someone else in the thread a retard or a nerd or a faggot

10% of the posts are people who offer nothing to the thread other than a one liner about how something is good or not

5% of the posts are actual input to the subject being discussed and worthy of being read

still a long ways off

this arena season hasnt ran nearly as long as the previous seasons, and they arent going to release lolaccessible 264 pve gear while we are middle of a season, it would completely fuck the pve gear vs pvp gear issue that is currently a huge shitstorm for blizzard
but who knows, maybe they will, gated content is gated content
