Incoming Info Storm! - Blue Tracker

#0 - May 2, 2008, 4:08 p.m.

At least, I hope there is.

Firstly, Good morning and happy Friday to you all. It is 8 AM in California, and Blizzard should be getting into the office shortly. There is a distinct lack of moved, locked, or deleted threads this morning- a sure fire indicator that the CMs are hard at work on SOMETHING and in this case, it isn't forum moderation.

It has been several weeks since any real information came from Blizzard to the players, and I am hoping that today will be the day. I remember just when TBC information came out, it was a calm day not unlike today. A blue showed her head, and began getting hammered (I was partially responsible for that- Shaman know why). And lo and behold, every class got announcements about upcoming talent additions.

Blues have spoken to us for weeks on end about gathering information and preparing stuff for us. They are well aware that we are on edge, untrustworthy of the standard "Soon", and prepared to shout them down in the event of too many posts that answer nothing...

So what do you say, Blizzard? Can we get an update today?

No storm today, though we are busy. It's true.

Q u o t e:

WTB recorded Neth laugh, I could see many uses for this on this forum :)

I think there is some in an upcoming BlizzCast.

We will need to edit that out then, personality is prohibited.

Q u o t e:

Neth, just between us, is there any chance we could get a vague eta on when we might get some information? A breadcrumb for the starving, if you will?

*Puppy dog eyes*

Edit: Holy crap blues, good morning Bornakk and Neth o.o

I wish I could, Koro. But, I can't. The clouds will get seeded in time. At the least, a light rain would be refreshing I'm sure.

Video camera is ready if this ever happens.

Q u o t e:
... Neth won't even go so far as to say information is coming before 2012.

I... I fear.

Oh, I could say that, but what if some freak time flux happens and we end up warping to 2012 before it gets posted? Then the pitchforks and torches would come out I bet!

Q u o t e:

I bet I can give a vague idea:

The next 'major' info will likely come at the Worldwide Invitational 2008.

Whoa... that was easy ;)

(I know I know... you can't confirm or deny that... but... still ;))

I can not confirm nor deny any form of confirmation or denial.

Q u o t e:

You know, rather than makes posts like this, you really could at least make posts like "I know it's been a month, but I'm still trying to get a Dev to answer the question(s) about Hunter pets..."

Or just admit you aren't going to get the answer you promised. You can throw in some song lyrics, it will soften the bow. :-/

That answer is waiting on timing. It's out of my hands until then, since it is tied to other time contingent answers. Of which, I know does little to help you right now, but hopefully more will become clear when we can let loose a bit more on the flow of information for you.

In short, if I could tell you more, I would, but I too, must wait until we have the right time to talk about it more.

Q u o t e:
I don't think there has ever been a day on the forums where it seemed like the Blues were posting alot about relevant issues. Some days they may hit a few topics, but never has a "info storm" ever occured.

Oh, it has happened. You must have missed the great storm of the Burning Crusade where we released a lot of class related information on multiple forums.
