#232 – Blow up Uranus

This week we are missing our resident Xia, who is feeling under the weather, so Cer and Ray pick things up with a lot of rage towards the “no flying” announcement by Blizzard, and we discuss if that will change with the uproar.

  • Originally Blizzard said flying in first major patch
    • http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/10571977123?page=1#6
    • “We intend to disallow flying while leveling from 90 to 100, and have flying become available again in the first major patch for Warlords of Draenor”
    • The team will not be adding flying to Draenor.
    • Moving forward, new expansions are also unlikely to have flying outside of specific zones or expansion ideas.
    • The team will continue to improve flight paths.
    • Being able to fly added convenience, but removed the ability to add things like targeted exploration of the world and made the world feel smaller and less dangerous.
