Is downloading for me right now, guess they snuck that one in. I would post the patch notes but the official final list doesn't seem to be out yet, and what is out there is looooooooooooong.

It's only part of it. 3.2 is still on PTR.

Probably a monthish, right before Aion release, or soon after Blizzcon IMO. No trash in the new raiding zone!

As badass as Aion looks, I can imagine it's going to be nothing be World PVP gang-banging with very little PVE progression (EQ tank-and-spank).

We lost our best healer to that game, and it's not even out yet.

And yeah, I'm guessing early September for 3.2's launch.

Man, I don't understand how people can be excited for Aion.

Anyways, new raid zone looks like a rushed, half-assed piece of crap they threw in. People were expecting more from the "seekrit raid" between Ulduar and Icecrown. And don't even get me started on the armor and weapon graphics. Ugh. I'm tempted to focus on PvP just because they got the good looking gear this time!

I like how my new bear/cat forms look! And I like that I have a epic mount and I'm only 51. That is all

It's in, and there's a lot of it.

New looks, new dungeons, new raids, new PVP... some games would call this an expansion!

An expansion with a shitty raid zone that artificially cockblocks players by allowing 1 boss to unlock each week! WOO!

Most pay-to-play MMOs release content patches like this every 2-3 months.
WOW is glacially slow when it comes to content.

Last month EQ2 added a crapload of new quests, a new storyline, 2 new instances and a 12 man raid instance.
Two months before that, they added new armor sets, a 12 man raid instance, a bunch of quests/questlines and revamped Lavastorm zone.

some games would call this an expansion

If you actually paid attention to what other MMOs are getting in terms of content updates, you'd realise how ridiculous that statement really is.

Jesus Christ Miir. When Sony has to piss, do you take your mouth off or just let em go?

Note to self: invest in whatever Miir nerd rages about. Blizzard makes good games. They make metric fucktons of money.

Fuck you! I was going to fish in the gym murder thread for some gun nuts, so not only do I forgive, I also tip my hat.

I like getting exp while reading a book afk in AV. Almost as fast as solo questing too (assuming your team takes towers, wins like 50% of the time).
