And confirms rumors of level cap increase!

Bottom left corner, it translates to:

Upon being contacted by Blizz that they fucked, they immediately did a reprint.

Save those quests you wanted to clean from your log, cuz it's almost time to crunch teh exps!

ROFL. Horde are getting Blood Elves and Alliance are getting ...Pandas???

One quick question about lore though..... How did the blood elves fracture away from Illidan to join the horde..?

Also, posting any links that lead to this on the official boards will get you perma-banned from those boards sooo.... don't do it.

The Pandarans supposedly have nice lore behind them that makes sense for the Alliance.

What I'm pissed about is how LITTLE effort went into making the Blood Elf race. Oooh change color tone and now they're completely different? I think not.

Prepare for the millions of children to now love horde thanks to this race.

Even with EQ's ancient graphics, there was a very noticeable difference between whitey and the darkies.


Ooooooh, they're elves with red outfits... lets call them BLOOD elves.

So what are they going to do about content? Does this mean that BWL and MC are now going to be come 15 man raids for level 70 folk? How long do you think it will take for some one to reach 70 once they release it? 24 hours?

Has Onyx been 15 manned yet?

EDIT: Onyx has been 17 manned. Fucking paladins need to be nerfed.

Sylvannas used to be the leader of the guardians of Quel'Thalas. She was a ranger.

There is speculation that they return from the Outland after the demons stop putting out or cause Illidan is crazy, are all like "sup, slyv? sux u died, but cum fix our sunwell. we no ur alchys got teh good pots" and get a portal from their noob zone in the NE to the Undercity. Otherwise that run through the plaguelands at level 6 is gonna be a bitch.

Pandaren are the perfect Alliance race. I'm sure the goldfarmers will love them long time.

Sylv was a high elf though, and the blood elves in the Warcraft series were all magic based from my memory. Either wizard types like the Prince character or the spellbreakers style. Hunters so far in WoW are always a more nature based race with taurens, night elves, trolls etc.

Just surprises me that from that screenshot they would make blood elves available to play every class, I would have more expected mages/warlocks/priests maybe warriors and rogues.

The blood elves are high elves who survuved the destruction of the Sunwell. They started calling themselves blood elves in memory of their dead.

But I got a 100% legitimate screenie right here, and the fix for the population imbalance is crafty indeed:

That'd be unfair.

RDA's old mullet would beat Vin Diesel all by itself.

And what I ment was that Sylv was a ranger when they were still high elves that had the connection to nature etc. Once they became blood elves they were consumed by their desire to find a new source of magic. They turned away from almost all their old ways, even allying with the demons etc. They just don't seem to fit into the other races that can be hunters in WoW. I'm pretty sure none of the races in WoW can be every class right now...

From what that screenshot of the character creation of a bloodelf, they cant be either shaman or druids. Hunters sorta go with a "capture/tame" element. Not being nature oriented like some mentioned goes more with the no-driud thing.

What fucking bullshit. I thought Ogres were a lock for a new race. Ogres, plus some sort of bare-fisted, "bruiser" class, or a kung-fu EQ monk style class that can use fist weapons, staves, and maybe daggers. Instead...we get reskinned night elves. Oh well....hopefully we'll get more than this.

Why are there two typos in the log in screen with the blood elf in it, and why also therefore does the blood elf shot come directly from wikipedia?

GG tho~

I don't know or care. However, Blood elves will be a new playable race. Care to bet some VVs on it?

He's not debating whether or not they will be playable race, but the fact that the login screen pic for example, is fake.

The other screenies I have found supporting the bloodelf claim are way too detailed to have been manipulated, but that login screen shot just screams fraud.

Quite possibly the same reason they have an unreasonable number of class option open to them. I would guess that shot is from the early stage development, before QA gets its crack at things. Dwarves used to be able to be mages too, if you remember.
War is an option whose time has passed. Peace is the only option for the future. At present we occupy a treacherous no-man's-land between peace and war, a time of growing fear that our military might has expanded beyond our capacity to control it and our political differences widened beyond our ability to bridge them. . . .

Short of changing human nature, therefore, the only way to achieve a practical, livable peace in a world of competing nations is to take the profit out of war.
--RICHARD M. NIXON, "REAL PEACE" (1983)

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, represents, in the final analysis, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children."

For those that think the picture was taken from Wikipedia, I thought that at first, but if you look at the tone and features of the face, they're different.
