I'm only up to 21 with my Dwarven mage so I've only seen the alliance areas to Red Ridge/Loch Modan and a glimpse at duskwood/wetlands.


I don't like any of them so far. I don't like the re-made Deadmines (the only dungeon I've tried since). About the only thing I do like from cata so far is the extra class trainers and flight paths all over the place. I was going to try a Worgen but at this point I'm feeling I'll just play thru the 80-85 stuff once or twice and call WoW done for me.

Same.


I'm not impressed at all with the changes.


I checked out stormwind, duskwood, and the other alliance changes and it certainly just reaffirmed that I am horde 4 life.


The new org is pretty cool as is azshara with the goblin roller coaster.

But mostly they just rehashed northrend graphics into the old world.

This entire xpac is nothing but recycled B-team stuff and there is absolutely zero way to argue otherwise.

Havn't seen to much myself, I just hit 80 on my Shaman, most of my guildmates who have been 80 forever are diving into the new/old content, they are achievment happy, I don't think I'll see most of the new stuff until I actually level a new character through it.

Well some of the changes I like:


Teld has had it's quests streamlined. I felt like I had a lot less running around. HOwever some thigns were a little too easy. Like the quest to go to the Dan lodge. Not only did they give you automatic escort there but there is a mist and a sentinal there to fight with you. Way too easy, but I understand what they were trying to do because I always get lost in there, but it was overkill easy.


Downside is that rare spawns drop bags and no greenies. So I've had nothing to D/E. I'm going to have to run Lowbies to get drops.


Stockades is better. I like the changes there. Like Hogger added to it.

I like the new fishing/cooking dailies in SW>


I really like what they did with East Plaguelands. I like how there is a sense of recovery and growth. The towes are no longer PvP and there is grass here and there. Light's Hope Chapel looks nice.

Andorhal looks so good. I guess I'm just really loving this post-Lich King feel to the zones.


Haven't really been a ton of places yet to see 'bad' side or dislikes.


Of course more FPs is always good. And mailboxes in Starter areas for BoA transfers.

I liked the changes to Loch Modan and Wetlands. Thought it was very nicely done, with the broken dam leading to the Loch draining almost dry, while Wetlands is a lot, um, wetter, with Menethil Harbour almost underwater.

One thing I did like was they seemed to have gotten rid of the kill 8 of gnoll x and 12 of gnoll y - now it's just kill 10 of any gnoll. Most of the simplifications I don't care for but I never liked spending an extra 5 minutes waiting for the respawn of that last type y gnoll (or whatever critter type).

Holy flight paths Batman!

Southshore is very alliance unfriendly now too.

Yes I did notice this and I liked the change. Nothing Vexxed me more to have to hunt for a certain type of mob when there was nothing but the other type spawned, having to kill them all and wait for respawns.
