do blizz actually ever read and consider wats on the forums because every class is QQing bout their changes and several classes got exactly wat they said they didnt want and their issues were NOT addresed?

eg. warlocks still hav no survivability and a few new mage spells... shamans stil hav no gtfo button, etc.

We didn't realize warlocks were dying so much in Cataclysm. We'll look into this.

no rlly blizz makin smooth remarks may win the appraise of all the anti-QQers but i would srsly like to know the direction the game is goin before cata actually comes out...

That's why we intend to have a beta test, get feedback, clarify and fine-tune our ideas. Some may even be tossed out, while new ones might be added.

The point of these previews is to give players some directional awareness and gather some feedback about it. Negative feedback is totally fine, but stating that none of your problems will be solved -- when you're inserting the suggested changes into the context of Wrath of the Lich King gameplay -- is a little bit assumptive and hyperbolic.

By all means though, we welcome you to share your concerns. I wouldn't consider arguing that we're not listening to what any of the players have been asking for is a very relevant concern to raise at this time.

i didnt get owned cos he didnt actually answer it... he jus made a cutting remark which impressed all u fanboys

im sry but why dont they say that locks will hav better survivability in the class preview if thats wat blizz intend... it would stop qq and make the forums a more peaceful place.


It's a weird, vague thing to say. We might as well say in every preview that we want each and every class/spec to be on par with other classes/specs which share the same class roles (which we kind of have been saying anyway).

It's a vicious cycle:


"With this next expansion want to make this the best game we can with lots of stuff and diversity so you will get much entertainment and continue to give us money for years to come"

"We want more specifics"

"Fine, this is what we're thinking about doing."

"We don't like it!"

"If it does not meet our goals we will change and experiment with it until it does."

"We don't believe you! Begone satanic demon, you're just trying to make our game worse so we'll quit!"

lol. I think that argument was in a dream I had... every night for the last five years.
