When you DIE it sucks in wow!

#0 - Sept. 25, 2008, 12:34 p.m.

have you noticed how annoying it is that ghost form in wow one can't go through walls or little annoying branches on the floor that you gotta jump over... plus you gotta go around mountains cause even as a ghost you cant climb them or hover over them...

you think that even as a ghost you should be able to do something special at least.

what is up with the whispering and music when you die, they make the walk to your body so lame and long and boring that you make sure you have stacks of healing potions and that you don't die so you don't endure the boring experiences when in "GHOST FORM"

Why blizzard, why do you persist!!! they really don,t want you to die.

How many of you just Ress with the spirit healer and endure 'Ress sickness' than walking to your body?

Sure it could be cool if you could go through walls or fly or similar as a ghost, because that does kind of make sense in a way that you are no longer bound to your physical form and the laws of physics when being a ghost. But from a gameplay perspective it is not really a great idea, because people would abuse it in order to grief or to avoid certain content to gain unfair advantages. They would die on purpose all the time at key spots in order to benefit from the nonrestrictive movement abilities of ghosts.

Yeah, havn't really experienced it. But if blizzard are up to the challenge, then create a plague like the one in game and kill us all. After that, I may write a whine thread.

Hmm... How about we instead make it possible to also die as ghost... that way you could have the fun of making several corpse runs until you actually get resurrected :-D

Actually it would not make sense if ghosts would be able to go through walls or floors unless there was no wall/floor when they died. Even in game it does not make sense. When did you last see a ghost go through walls?

Well I don't believe I have actually ever seen a ghost, so my knowledge about the limitations of ghosts is pretty much derived entirely from various works of fiction :-)
