Blizzard has announced a special new contest based around the recent additions to World of Warcraft that include the S.E.L.F.I.E. camera and Twitter integration. Players are invited to take and submit their best selfies in order to win weekly prizes and even the opportunity to score Blizzcon tickets.

Check out the hilarious video below and then head to the World of Warcraft S.E.L.F.I.E. contest page to find out more.

    This is just disapointing on so many levels.

    This is obviously meant to be a fun activity to take part in, the whole selfie camera thing.  I think this is rather genius, it encourages people to use the new content and the video is funny to boot.

    To be fair to Blizzard, Twitter is probably paying them to put on this promotion.

    How much more out of touch not only with their playerbase, but even with their own product can a company be?

    Blizzard is trying to do something fun!

    BURN THEM!!!

     

    Have to really wonder if some of you actually feel joy when playing MMOs.

    You do know that MMOs can be more than just crushing misery? Right?

    I would have thought they would want to move on after the 6.1 'drama', rather than go back and highlight the 'content' of that patch again through a contest like this.

     

    Most people that unsubbed from WoD did so because there is zero level 100 content besides raiding and PvP, not because of a lack of Twitter functionality.

     

    Such a shame, WoD was arguably their most hyped expansion to date, and had a great initial experience, until players reached level 100 and learned it had nothing else left to offer.

    I don't know, people was tell me that how great that expansion is, and how good it was, over and over, like there doing with ff14 expansion or gw2, never ends with the hype to high.

    This is garbage.. there's not even the ability to add a selfie stick.  Who wouldn't want to buy the selfie stick pet for $9.99 from Blizzard.  :P

    Honestly, from an outside perspective, this seems silly.

    S.E.L.F.I.E camera? Twitter integration? These things are not the most efficient use of developer resources in a video game. It seems to be located in the same vein of these other new games being released with "companion apps."

    This new trend of developers trying to get you to play their game by enticing you to do everything but actually play their game is.. Oxymoronic, for lack of a better term.

    If a selfie-contest is their answer to losing 3mio subs, the game is finally doomed. I hope so.
