Panser, really liked the "off the cuff" version of the show. Just wanted to reply to your question about the misalignment of Blizzard's communication. Having worked for a large company for some time it can be extraordinarily hard to have a cohesive message. I don't think Blizzard is out to confuse by design but it's more likely that they have a huge group of various developers, producers and others speaking directly to the press.While I totally appreciate your frustration, I think that we (the player base) bring it upon ourselves to some degree in pushing further and further up the development chain for answers. A good example of that can be seen with data mining or the test servers. We obviously now take content there with a large grain of salt because it's not final. I think the same approach should likely be taken with any interviews regarding future development.In any case, great points made and hopefully Blizzard will work to align better internally on their key messages and perhaps identify the official "owner" of communications about what is final.
afflication
I can't get overwolf to work, I had it for a good few minutes, but it wanted me to update flash player, so I did, and now it doesnt work ingame anymore.edited for spelling
I have been playing WOW 10 years now. Have listened to the "Cash Grab" and "WOW is dieing" talk for sooooo...... long.Let us look at a few things.Cost - I have heard arguments that the Expansions are to expensive for the content.Now are they? If you play a console game for 10 years..... Wait they made a new console for the next version..... That just cost you $150-$300 and you still have to buy the game. In 10 years time did that happen just once? My guess is you had to purchase as new console more than once in 10 years. Now with Wow I am using the same PC as I did 10 years ago. I am still running XP on this PC. I have not upgraded this PC once in the last 10 years. Not even a video card upgrade. Still playing WOW.Now the content. In past years we didn't have Wowhead or other sites to go to to find our way. We had to explore. It seemed like a lot more content that way. Now we just type something in a search and then follow directions. I remember the day we had to talk to each other in game to figure out what was going on. Made the world so much larger than it really was.WOW was created in the beginning by a few people that wanted to make a game (and some money) now it is so large it has become a large corporation. I am positive they are not trying to lose money. At the same time they MUST take risks to make money. (yes it is a lot of money) People that make a lot of money don't risk they're own money they risk someone elses. Yes we the players get to take on that roll. Just remember without risk there is never gain. We all learn from mistakes. Lets just hope Blizzard learns from they're mistakes.
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I am having an issue with Overwolf. It seems to be flickering when I enter WoW. I tried googling a solution and it appears it may be tied to SLI, but the answers I found on Google were from 2013. I have no idea if there is a fix for it now other than turning off SLI (and I don't want to do that).Any help would be appreciated.
If it truly is the last patch, this would be another example of Blizz swinging the pendulum way too wide in response to some player discontent. Please let the next expansion be cheaper if it's going to be tiny like this one.
Unscripted Panser is best Panser.
Just quick question: what IS Panser's "normal" hair color? Do we get to vote on that too? :D

"This site has a zero tolerance policy when it comes to personal attacks to the members of the staff"so as long it's not aimed at the staff it's ok than..? 3:)
I just downloaded Overwolf. And I don't know why I only here of this now! I literally needed this in my life!
Hi Panzer and all.Don‘t worry about this 6.2 last patch and wait a whole year and so on.As we know some Blizzcons back, they always said to try to give out more expantions quicklier.When Draenor was annonced , Tom Chilton said , we are now already working with the next expantion and the one after that.We also heared Chris Metzen said father Hellscream gonna be the final boss.Mabey father Hellscream was the end boss , but they mabey change it on the way , like Cory Stockton said.My guess from me could be like this.That we play 6.2 out untill Blizzcon. Then they annonce they new expantion and telling us that the expantions beta is coming very soon not a year.Storry where we left of in Tanan with the rest of the untold stories and characters from Warlords of Draenor.With some Palladin lore that Alex said in the Blizzcon panel. So aswell father and son of the Hellscream.On a Blizzcon some years back , Metzen said. You wan‘t Illidan back , and the people shout.Why did he mention him of all?He has a role in the story why Black Temple become to be Black Temple.So aswell his back story. Remember what the Prince in ledgendary quests was showing us in Pandaria.An attack , raining from the sky against us all. Could be the burning legion attack in Draenor.So this next Expantion could be a continue of the untold stories and the untold characters we missed.Mabey they also put in the Zebran and the Arrakoa in this second story of big big lore.We already now see that they are two new reputations in Tanan of them both.When a question comes up on a Blizzcon some years ago , about , why we not Horde get a cool monster like the Worgen.Then the Blizz said.Last time Horde getting bloodelf , a more pretty one , so now it‘s time for Alliance to get a more aggressive one.So mabey Horde will get thier aggressive wild one now in the Zebran.So again , there is so much story in the whole to just quit now , so i guess they put it in a new Expantion that comes soon.That continue very close where the other took off. So Panzer i don‘t think they gonna be a year of waiting.They mabey just cut Warlords in two halfs with diffrent names.Or mabey it comes patch anyway , who knows Blizzard.As we all know Garrosh Hellscream is on the front page of the box of Warlords of Draenor and that says alot.All what i write is wild speculations and ideas from myself.Hope you all enjoy my little idea about why we stop Warlords with 6.2 as last patch without fighting Garrosh.1All WOW players out there , have fun and let fight and enjoyment go on with our awsome game that we all like so much.Greetings Windslasher.
Just adding my 5c to the conversation....Panser - totally like the "I can't make up my mind" hair color look... (my mrs is a hairdresser...I get it)Blizz communications - Meh...do you really think gamer nerds aka game devs know about or were trained in a "united front" for game content communication? Isn't that a sales/marketing function?Lastly, what's the big deal about this content patch being the last (if it is)? Tanaan jungle is still a huge improvement from Timeless Isle (which Panser pointed out is thanks to community feedback). Our guild still hasn't started raiding HFC yet, so for all the non-HC guilds this gives us plenty of time to progress through the patch without the spectre of "new content" looming over our shoulders, taunting us with "you'll never finish HFC on Heroic before the next expansion". Enjoy the story, don't skip to the back page to read the ending.... THAT's cheating :D
We are not getting mixed messages from Blizz...He never said 6.2 was the last WoD content! He said HFC was the last WoD raid!
so, just got Overwolf a lil' bit ago and I'm already in love with it! really awesome app!
