I think Burning crusade is coming out in few days ?
But there is next to none excitement on this forums about it ?!
Is WOW now officialy labeled passe ? I even saw original boxes sold for a joke price in local gameshops ...
So burning grusade? Really , meh ?

As far as WoW being passe, it's statistic of 7 million accounts tells us that everyone and their mom has played WoW. Yes, it's old.
Of course, outside MMORPG.com things are propaply little different (newbies and chinese).
There is alot of talk about TBC in the actual game its self. Just because some fanboy isnt spamming it on these forums doesnt mean the hype for TBC has burnt out already. I enjoy playing WoW very much and greatly look forward to the new expansion.
Oh and busdriver your comment "Of course, outside MMORPG.com things are propaply (Nice spelling btw) little different (newbies and chinese)." I can see your arrogence and that like most people who flame wow, fanboy another MMO, probably EVE.

With the heroic dungeon mode they recycled their just created content. You grind teh same dungeon over and over again,
only the mobs are harder.
The also added:
Name 1 MMO that does not grind and offers the chance (does not force you) to run the same dungeon over and over.. come on name 1.
Crafting = grind
Housing = grind (grind for mats to make stuff)
Leveling = grind
Raiding = grind
Reputati with factions = grind
all mmo's are a grind.
5 main raid.... eh? 5 man is just a standard group.

Yes, you can grind in eve (Mining, ratting, missions). You can also make a perfectly good living in EVE without grinding at all. You can do merc contracts, fleet battles, politics, market whoring, or any number of unique things. If you really really want to do the same missions over and over with your buddies, there's always Dedspace complexes and lvl 4 agent missions.
Grind if you want to, kill someone if you don't.
WoW = pwnt.
I would be more excited about the expansion if they added new classes to it. I played WoW for 2 years (counting from early closed beta) and have played all the classes to death. Adding the two new races does not make me want to resub to it at all. (though the bloodelf area is pretty cool).
Rofl...your one to talk about spelling.. "ARROGENCE" lawl...
Anyways..back on topic. Im not terribly excited. I feel as one of the previous posters wrote "its Life support". For me thats exactly what it is. Nothing that I can tell that is being released is going to be terribly game breaking.
Wanna get me all wet blizzard? This is what I want.
I want new classes!! New races are ok...but new classes makes me smile.
I want REAL PVP. Give me some big ass RvR-ish KEEP taking and that would get me hot and bothered. Wouldnt that just be sick!! Go to outlands and pull up a map that looks like a RvR BattleMap of Towers and Keeps. That right there would be the hotness.
Unless that happens I will be moving on to Warhammer, Age of Conan or Darkfall.
I'd never even heard of Burning Crusade till I saw this thread.
Sad that other companies don't have enough $$$ to make something new.
I agree with the statement 'overpriced mess' simply because in the UK gamestation 'claim' the RRP is £30, it's an expantion not a full game (like GW, at least if offers a 'game' that doesn't require another game to play), not even EQ has gone that high with even it's 'massive' content versons.. The only reason I wanted TBC was in the hope that Outland World PVP content was actally half desnet and raiding was one less streefull and two more entertaining then the tank and spank most instancing is atm..
I've pre-ordered it but I'm still spilt between that and Vanguard to fill the 'gap' between now and AoC/TCoS (which lead to WAR at last
), as Vanguard (although at this time is 'unfinished') offers the same quality of content as WoW does but actally bothers considering PvP as PvP not a 'bonus game', and doesn't have that annoying 'epeen' community that WoW has
Bring on the WARRRRGGHH!
Which Final Fantasy Character Are You?
if I were to kill a titan tomorrow and no CCP employees showed up to say grats I would petition it.
Waiting for: the next MMO that lets me make this macro
if hp < 30 then CastSpell("heal") SpellTargetUnit("player") else CastSpell("smite") end
I feel like it's already been released months already... probably because of all the beta stuff. Not really hyped about it as I don't see myself returning to WoW.
I really don't see whats to be excited about with the expansion. There really isn't any new gameplay aspects to the game. Just more of whats already in the game. New Races, New Professions, New Maps, New Instance Dungeons, New Raid Items, New Recipes, More Skills, More Quests. I admit the ladder pvp is interesting, and depending on how the pvp world objectives are done it could be interesting. I mean aside from PVP, Raiding, Getting Recipes, Creating a New Toon, and exploring the new areas. What are you gonna do? I mean you already did all that stuff from 1-60 in the game. I can easily play through that content in a week and be bored. This is what I expect out of the monthly updates they have, not of an expansion. Just adding something else to do in the game would have made it better worthy to buy, like player housing to give the player an attachment to the world or even something as simple as Mounted Combat.
