 | reply to Dillinja as much of a mess beta still is, as well as how much of it is not even finished yet, release wont happen until at least between turkey day and christmas. i mean, even after its basically finished w all they want to add and most bugs are fixed, it will still be tested for a while just to make sure |

| reply to Krisnatharok Seems less and less a practical trademark anymore, per se, since Activision. Doesn't it just kind of feel like things are more pushed and released less polished?
Taking this into account my guess lies with mid December. But it's nothing more than that - a guess. |

 | reply to Dillinja said by Dillinja:I really can't see that 5-6 months with DS.. I cant see DS lasting that long either, my server isnt quite dead but it is close. When you're standing in the AH on Sat morning in Dwarven District and there is only 5 other people there then things are going south...but I dont how much of this is due to stale content or D3....probably a combo of the two. Then again ICC was out for over a year, but that was an long raid DS is not.
I dunno....just rambling. |

I really can't see that 5-6 months with DS, I reckon end of August that would still give them their 18 month expansion turn around. If the question is when do we want it, or when does blizzard want to release it, I'd agree the end of summer/back to school time is their goal. However they won't intentionally release a buggy/incomplete product - if they do push the release before it's ready that would signal the end of WoW dominance. |

 djlar join:2009-04-23 799228 | Yeah after several months now on DS it just became so boring, being doing some beta but just to test it.... but I don't want to play beta that much (since no matter what you do there it won't be permanent, they could even delete your toons tomorrow).. |

| reply to Dillinja I'd guess late summer to just before Thanksgiving. Blizzard will want the expansion to be a stocking stuffer, and needs to release it for the Christmas season. It probably won't be ready, but that won't stop release. It's easier to release and patch than get it right from the start (the cash flow is better). -- "People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use." |

 | reply to Dillinja Level 90 Brewfest loot has been datamined on the beta. Since Brewfest is Sept 20-Oct 5 this year, I'm guessing that they are currently shooting for a September release, if not earlier. Doesn't mean it will happen - that's what they are shooting for.
I do hope for sooner rather than later, simply because it was starting to be a pain to find subs for raids (qualified people willing to work on heroic) even before D3 came out. -- When the ship lifts, all bills are paid. No regrets. |

 ImmerGentlemanPremium join:2010-01-07 Evans, GA kudos:6 | reply to Dillinja the last think you want is a rushed MoP job.... so sloppy... |
|
 | reply to Dillinja I suspect it will be released before November. But if they don't release it sooner they are going to lose a lot of people. DS end game is a lot less fun then ICC end game was. |
|
 | DS end game has been a lot less fun for a while. Both of my raids are now losing people - 1 due to work (and that raid is already short a reliable healer), and a tank/dps who wants to avoid burnout (although we do have a healer who has a tank, but then we need a healer).
DS is also much shorter than ICC - 4 less bosses and a lot less trash. -- When the ship lifts, all bills are paid. No regrets. |

 TreebarkPremium join:2010-03-04 Havelock, NC kudos:1 | reply to Dillinja I hope it is fucking soon, just resubbed and killed DW on my 2 toons in pugs, yes I know it is nerfed down but man it is easy. There is nothing really to do but play alts, guess I will level my mage or shaman.
And I don't see how MoP could be rushed, they have had ample time to develop it with how stagnant this shit has been. |
