Yeah, I was accepted into beta . Or rather, I convinced someone to hand me his beta key. I leave you to imagine by what means (although I suggest you wander between the burglary and threatening calls).
How '? Another masterpiece? Or the first misstep of Blizzard?
I must say that some disappointment there 'was, but I hope dictated solely by the beta was bitter, because I must tell you, the beta is still indietrissimo. And frankly a good part of me hopes that the game to be postponed to allow time for developers to work on some more 'on.
First of all the latest build is very unstable, and you can not play with less than a crash every 10 minutes. I could not create a Goblin (me error), but are able to create a Worgen (one male and aesthetically customizable for now).
Every time I try a new expansion of WoW (yes, I was also in the beta of TBC and Wrath) Blizzard always manages to pluck these words from his mouth "is so fantastic not seem to even World of Warcraft. " There 's success this time with the first minutes of the Worgen. Finished loading, begin the introductory sequence (for now without narration), which shows a glimpse of the landscape and landing on the new character that is surprisingly human. We are in the square of a ghostly city that personally reminds me of the beginning of Fable II or at least a city in nineteenth-century English style. It 's the district northwest of Gilneas City, and the city is under attack from the vicious Worgen, beasts, or rather demons that look like anthropomorphic wolves. The market place is full of Worgen and Guards fighting as civilians flee in terror. Blizzard always manages to create a unique atmosphere, and for me the element that makes the atmosphere here is quite palpable on the Worgen roofs hesitate threatening or stand up to huge jumps in land square in the middle of combattiento. By night the moon and then this area must be even more fascinating.
Initially we are asked to help push the Worgen and to evacuate citizens, to accompany them in the next district of the city (that's east). Here we meet the King Genn Greymane, king of the Gilneas surrounded by a bunch of soldiers. Initially it was believed that the city is still tenable, but going forward with this Worgen's becoming more and more ground troops tear of Gilneas. Soon the city is taken. A final heroic resistance is made in the district north-west, where there is a majestic cathedral and gardens.
Despite the presence of guns and massacre Worgen that you can create in front of the cathedral, it was not long that the last position is taken and you are fighting inside the cathedral propia for life, while off the entire city is overflowing with Worgen. A video (not yet available in beta), it shows our character bitten by a Worgen, becoming one of them. At this point you wake up tied, precisely on a pillory, and a man nearby says he wants to surrender to us. There is no cure, but a way to afford are aware of return. And at this very moment that the beta crashes and you can not go on like this unfortunate build of beta.
I managed to do some jumping around Azeroth. And I found the new water fantastic, although I hope you finish it a little bit more because in some places and seen from a distance is not the best. As regards the areas, the few that I visited have changed a lot, except Teldrassil . I was disappointed by the work done in Teldrassil, not so much geographically (the trees are much improved and managed to give a shape more like a tree that first island looked like a log) but for quests, which have remained the same with some minor modifications to increase the flow, while all other areas starting or are new (remember the Trolls and Gnomes now start-zones), or have received this fairly radical changes to . Okay, I hope we still are working on.
I remember the beta of Wrath of the Lich King, just started back was very smooth and covered almost all the content, in practice only had to clean up the bug. Cataclsym But with two months of the start, there are still many many bugs and missing content (not counting the crash that I hope will be a problem of build). An example of a bug you can clearly see in the screenshots above Gilneas on the right there two characters are the same NPC that overlap (with the voice, making the dialogues sooo confused). I know that Blizzard makes its games "when it's ready ", but this time I am afraid to do things in a hurry not to leave too much time players with no new content. I look forward to seeing the development of beta, and I hope my fears prove unfounded. Meanwhile
I added a post that sums up my experience in the beta of Wrath of the Lich King.
