ITT - people crying that couldnt even do a FRACTION of what Blizzard is doing. Yes, Cata/Wotlk paled in comparison to TBC. If I had my way, TBC would have been the LAST xpac. But I don't have my way. Neither do you. Try balancing the needs/wants of over 10 million people. Try making a majority of over 10 million people happy. Try making content accessible for over 10 million people. Those of you who complained Wotlk was too easy - you got Cata. Those of you NOW complaining that Cata is too easy after the ramp up in gear (just like EVERY other xpac), wait til MoP, or do some hard modes. First and foremost Blizzard is a BUSINESS. IF they happen to want to make content more accessible to casuals, and still allow hardcore players to do their thing, so be it. If they continued to do things like Sunwell prenerf, they would lose a good amount of their playerbase. This is why they incorporated hard modes. This is why towards the end of EVERY xpac they slowly nerfed endgame content, so that the casuals can at least experience the content well after the hardcores do. And by that time, noone cares, people are just already geared up for the next xpac, just to do the gear grind again. Stop complaining about everything, because in reality, Blizzard has given us most of the things we have asked for as a whole, and given us ALOT more options than we had in say, the end of Vanilla (And those of you that like to reminisce about the old glory days - can we say imbalance/ridiculous grinding?).

TLDR;
Stop complaining. Blizzard caters to it's playerbase far more than you think. Either ride the train or get off at the next stop.

I'm pretty indifferent to all this social networking stuff you guys implement; what I want is an invisible mode for RealID.... when's THAT coming?

@Anyankah: I feel like this. Don't add people to Real ID if you want to hide from them.

@Sünde: The problem is that real-id is pervasive across all the blizzard properties, which means that if you say, add your guildmaster or raid leader to real id (some guilds require this!!!) and then you want to hide because you don't feel like playing with them OR you don't want to feel obligated to play with them when you're not actually doing the raiding stuff, and would rather spend a night playing D3 or Starcraft, instead you wind up doing nothing or playing a different game altogether. This is also the case if when you're not raiding you want to play an alt on a different server or faction.

I think talk-to-text would be really great for communication in raids or dungeons.

@Tandori: I'd love this. So many love Vent. And I'm partially deaf. Vent is extremely hard to hear people on. Skype is better for me. Yet few use it for raiding. This would solve my issue with Vent.

I liked Warcraft on Facebook, and since I don't play WoW every day and see the news on the loader, it's a great way to keep up on all the latest announcements, news, and trailers. I don't see how Warcraft+facebook=childish

@Lycaen: Just sayin' They've dumbed down the game, turned our vanity pets into pokemon (they get new skills as they grow... ring any bells?) now they want us to tweet too? I dig the insta news alerts too but honestly; I think its reallyto Blizzards advantage more than ours

@Lycaen: How? Just because you don't like twitter does not mean this is a bad feature. Its nice to get mobile updates on Blizzards games, like Billabo, I'm not on WoW every single day. As for the Pet Battles system, no one said you HAD to do it, so let the people who like the idea have their fun, and you just do whatever it is you do.

@Noni: You should have an option to download the Beta Client on your Battle.net Account Management page. That is assuming the invite is real and not a bunch of scammers trying to gank your password. Hope this helps :)

@Noni: You have all the time in the world, or at least until the Beta ends. If the emails says you only have 24 hours to play, then it's prolly a scam. Check your battle.net account, and NEVER click a link in an email, even one that you're sure came from blizz. Just get a bookmark of "www.battle.net"

Seriously Folks! Does it really matter what people use as a Social Network! Let the companies provide a avenue for folks to do what they want, and then let the people who wish to do so use whatever makes them happy. Stop complaining about the company, the game, and it's content. Instead provide back to the company, the community, and in any other venue as to what you actually have data on that may aide in correcting issues that are found within the game. Actually opinions without any knowledge as to how some of the physical makeup of the game works is not of any help, and is of no use in this comment area.

Peace to All
