I'm still amazed with the resources this company has with WoW alone, how little it appears they do with it. I can't imagine what some MMO developers could pull off with their funding.



Seriously. They're not innovating. Why innovate? They're at the top atm. They won't worry about how they do things until they're challenged.



One day it will bite them in the ass harder than they can handle, not any time soon though.

My comment is more in the lines of the amount/type of content produced. At this stage in their development/lifespan and resource generation, they should have every damn thing automated to the point of churning out quality content on a monthly basis.

Expansions should be pouring out of their rear, like someone on the toilet after a Taco Bell binge.

They should be able to get content out for ALL styles of play, not just picking and choosing every 6 months to a year.

If they don't care to/can't innovate, then don't. But spew content out like no other company, so nobody could get bored because they won't run out of things to see or do.

If you think my opinion is idiotic, re-read yours.
Dont worry I will give my opinion anyways.
The PvP MMO is NOT a "niche" market, Mythic is just a "niche" company.

I think this is the entire reason Raid Finder is being added its because they know the number of actual people raiding Firelands is low but i doubt its going to change much i really wish they'd start working on other stuff rather than Raids


its like they are being forced to do this so they can just make people go do the raids by making it so easy you just show up lol

I have been following and reading up on the new "raid finder" and from what I can tell most people don't have a clue who and what it really is for. The feature is not for "scrubs" and "casuals" to be able to just show up at a raid. It is for semi-hardcore people to get together and pug raids. It will be epic fail and very little of the community will actually be able to take part in it.

Also, I am willing to bet that the gear requirements for using it are very high and will be the "too tall to ride the ride" sign for the masses. Another note, it is only for the newest raid from what I have read.

Wrong raid finder is for scrubs to gear up..there will be 2 levels above it,with better loot.

PvE is just to damn boring, once you kill a boss,you can sleep walk it the next 100 times,although people get excited about the numbers they do....I dont.

They could develop world pvp, with castles and quest zones that could be captured with ruthless rewards.Give players a choice.

RGB is pretty bad, same tactics most games...it's intense but so is bg's with 2 good sides fighting it out,and theres no wait time for that.

Cookie cutter specs for every class,are we really playing this game or is it playing us?

Firelands Changes Impact - Update
I may not have been clear enough when we posted the Firelands Graphs previously, so let me remind you that they are intended to show which changes made Firelands easier, not how many people raid.

Some people translated that to "1.35% of players saw the end game content!" and forgot that the sample was 2.7M characters, not 10 players, and someone smart pointed out that this % is probably around 15 or 20% at this point. (Which is pretty impressive for the end boss of the latest raiding tier)



I've no idea how that calculation was made, just sharing.



They were leaned on.



Or paid off.
