#

That's the weird part, no sign of Thrall anywhere, not even in datamining. Looks like the player character replaces him in the narrative. Or maybe they have something else planned for him.

hollow dock
#

maybe they did a last minute change on him going through this journey then

split valley
#

@ivory palm Yeah they spoke of a big patch coming out specifically on a Tuesday last week.

steel venture
#

a tuesday

#

not today

split valley
#

Its just that we've had 2-3 bug fix builds since then so people might of gotten confused by that.

steel venture
#

just "a" tuesday

ivory palm
#

@split valley thanks for the info !

steel venture
#

i feel like theres been a lot of in-house work done that they're gonna drop on us all at once basically

jade basalt
#

They also said "soon"

steel venture
#

is what the wording of "big biuld" makes me think

split valley
dense plover
#

they specifically said next tuesday

#

the two things combined

#

if it doesnt happen today, its because of technical issues

languid yoke
#

it would still be a few hours anyway

split valley
#

There's been a few EXE binaries only builds since then which is why people are getting confused. They've assumed it's already come when it hasn't (Avaanaas specifically said there were issues that couldn't be fixed in a binary only build)

languid yoke
#

3-4 until servers normally go down

dense plover
#

yes

#

itll probably go down around 1pm or so

#

and then over the next few hours, the build will go up on the server end

#

meanwhile all the datamining will happen4

proud tiger
#

however awesome datamining is, it kinda spoils the game.
same thought I have every expansion. and then I end up reading through them anyway... :D
maybe the expac after BfA will finally be the one I go into "blind" haha

hollow dock
#

I tend to avoid all the stuff Im going to go through on live.

#

Like I dont look at most of the alliance stuff but dont really care for horde so that's what I look at in datamining

dense plover
#

im just waiting for the alpaca models

#

theyre probably going to be a new mount too

hollow dock
#

I wonder if the Pterrodax model will be retroactive to the Skyscreamer

dense plover
#

nope

#

it isnt

#

skyscreamer still has a different model

#

which is good

wild pewter
#

That tweet doesn't say Tuesday anywhere though.

hollow dock
#

Show up in the next build

#

next build is generally tuesday or Wednesday

wild pewter
#

What about the Friday builds? 😮

hollow dock
#

theyre pretty rare so not really on consideration since the past month of builds have been tuesday/wednesday

dense plover
#

the post about broken resources says tuesday build

#

also

#

the bigger the build, the sooner they want to get it out

#

"Ok friends, we found the root. This is being caused by missing art assets believe it or not. Unfortunately due to the nature of the fix, we're unable to resolve this via a binary update and will have to wait until our next full build update (scheduled for Tuesday).

Thank you for all of the reports and your boundless patience! I'll post on this thread with any updates."

#

SCHEDULED FOR TUESDAY

wild pewter
#

Yaaaaay!!

uncut vault
#

Some of the DC stuff did get fixed with the tiny build last week, but the removal of assets made the Tiragarde story incompletable

#

So here’s hoping they’re fixed and readded today

ruby star
#

build hypeeeee

tulip sun
#

Sooooon?

ruby star
#

tonight

dense plover
#

"Greetings all,
We'll be bringing down Beta realms today in order to push a new 8.0.1 build. No ETA for today's update but I'll keep you in the loop on this thread if things look like they're going to take longer than usual (~1-2 hours).

Side Note:
This build should address the disconnection issues many users have encountered due to a missing art asset.

Thanks for your patience everyone!"

#

hype though it's gonna be biiiig 😄

sharp bluff
#

so it sounds like the vampire elfs are playing a part in BFA, is there any race on Alliance side that is doing something similar?

uncut vault
#

High elves 😉

terse patrol
#

potentially junker gnomes

#

we havent seen them yet tho

sharp bluff
#

so Aussie gnomes might be doing something?

#

ah

uncut vault
#

On a serious note, gnomes are a likely counterpart

terse patrol
#

I just hope they look considerably different from current gnomes

uncut vault
#

Have a major presence in Kul Tiras, completely new assets, and an ongoing storyline

sharp bluff
#

idk how they could make them look different though....

terse patrol
#

tfw fan art of goblins and gnomes is 100x better than in game ones

sharp bluff
#

glad to hear about them getting story time though, gnome is the only race of vanilla alliance I have left atm

sharp bluff
#

well ya, artists can make them look, um, "better" 😉

#

but ya, glad to hear the gnomes part

#

I guess vamp elfs/Junker gnomes would be cool

#

idk what or how the junker gnomes are

tulip sun
#

Heard maybe order of embers counterpart to sanlayn

sharp bluff
#

But sound like Aussies

terse patrol
#

my guess is, the junker gnomes will be half robot

#

cyborgs

sharp bluff
#

would e cool, but kinda small

dense plover
#

yeah theres some kind of gnome thing going on

#

might be a new alliance allied race if they show up in a patch or something

terse patrol
#

ye

ruby star
#

@uncut vault Agreed HigH eLVES :d

terse patrol
#

Wrong game lmao

#

A nice mockup, but

sharp bluff
#

well which rigs are we missing on allied races? gnome, goblin (potentially the foxes), worgen, forsaken (thin humans are close? but doubt them), and pandas?

terse patrol
#

It’s likely going to be junker gnomes

ruby star
#

( I didn't make it btw)

sharp bluff
#

I know gnoem and goblin rigs are missing, worgen rig is missing

ruby star
#

High Elf should have Paladin too tbh on the mock up

sharp bluff
#

just those 5 rigs not used right?

terse patrol
#

Makes no sense for them not to have paladin ye

ruby star
tulip sun
#

I dont think it matters what rigs were used and not

ruby star
#

Explain this then 😉 (green eye glow bug) @terse patrol (Paladain order hall i think)

sharp bluff
#

well for allied races rigs matter

#

since they all reuse other rigs, with minor changes

tulip sun
#

They never said all had to be reused

sharp bluff
#

no, but just asking based on that fact

terse patrol
#

Reread my sentence Drorith

sharp bluff
#

since all we have to go one atm

ruby star
#

OH

#

SORRY

terse patrol
#

Slowly

ruby star
#

yeah my fault, I apologise xD

sharp bluff
#

allied race will never be murloc sadly T.T that is what makes me sad

uncut vault
#

Sethrak use a loose Worgen rig, mix between them, Draenei, and pandas for anims

harsh canyon
#

I love the above puc

sharp bluff
#

so that leaves, forsaken, gnome, and panda right?

uncut vault
#

I mean, I don’t think they’re gonna do a strict rig for rig thing

#

Sethrak and vulpera are both far from their counterparts in terms of actual animation

sharp bluff
#

I mena they probably wont

#

but they have so far

#

so i will go with that till otherwise

tulip sun
#

Kul tirans?

sharp bluff
#

orc rig i thought

#

Idk though

uncut vault
#

Completely new one

sharp bluff
#

really?

uncut vault
#

Yeah they confirmed it

sharp bluff
#

even though Zandalari is mixed? they made a new one for Kil Tirans?

uncut vault
#

Women use some other anims but the men are new

sharp bluff
#

huh

ruby star
#

We know they have the allied races planned out and stuff might of changed in their plans from what they learned so I wonder 🤔

harsh canyon
#

They still need to add glasses to the game

hallow hollow
#

^^^

sharp bluff
#

non holiday locked glasses?

harsh canyon
#

I want to role up a Tumblr Feminist Kul Tiran yhat barely heals and wants all the loot

sharp bluff
#

like the anniversary locked ones T.T

harsh canyon
#

And screams about the Patriarchy

hallow hollow
#

I was upset that I immediately came across two glasses-wearing NPCs when I played beta

foggy rain
#

Guyss!! give me a beta key 😐

harsh canyon
#

How many gallons have you burned?

#

How much blood have you spilt for Beta?

#

Is it as much as me?

#

Reminds me

#

Need another chicken tonight

dense plover
#

we dont have keys

harsh canyon
#

Yes

#

Sacrifice more to Blizzard like I have

terse patrol
#

@uncut vault Wheres the source for the new rig thing?

ruby star
#

@foggy rain theres plenty of giveaways you can enter! 😄 Begging however is not the way to go 😉

“The Kul Tiran big burly humans are 100% new models--they are not re-rigged humans.”

They should have realized no nerd on the Internet ever wants something new

I hope the build is not released too late.

itll probably go out in an hour or two

but servers probably wont be up until later

stop with the human-like gollum

it hurts my brain

It doesn’t even look that bad, I must admit

hollow dock
#

We must have more Honk

tulip sun
#

AHhhh

#

I am super excited. It needs to hurry

dense plover
#

give it time

#

rushing will break things

uncut vault
#

also, to add more fuel to the confusion of the reliquary stuff

#

cap I got yesterday

#

seems he still is high examiner, they just fucked up the new guys title

tulip sun
#

Huh...

#

It could be possible there are many?

#

Tae'thelan is just like the HIGH HIGH Examiner? xD

uncut vault
#

friend of mine put together a decent map of the war table stuff, and who holds what around hillsbrad

wild pewter
#

So... we're killing someone who isn't of actual importance in the Reliquary?

uncut vault
#

nobody of consequence dies in the war campaign

wild pewter
#

Nice map btw!

tulip sun
#

Ya, that map is great

hollow dock
#

So is that only for the alliance war campaign or does it go for both?

#

where neither side really gets or loses anything

uncut vault
#

both

hollow dock
#

OK good.

uncut vault
#

its basically showing who holds what, and where the factions are trying to move

terse patrol
#

I'd say so far the Horde does the most damage tho. Unless the last two war campaign things for the Alliance ramps things up

hollow dock
#

it's percieved damage

uncut vault
#

IE we know the horde currently hold things like tarren mill and alterac, but we dont really know if the alliance thwart their efforts. Same with not knowing if the horde free up the rivers and stop the alliance from the plaguelands

#

the missions seem more like guidelines than "this is the outcome" stuff

#

setup of conflict, not actual conflict

hollow dock
#

still no news on the usage of the Vindicaar right?

terse patrol
#

they said the alliance holds the plaguelands tho

uncut vault
#

none, sadly

#

hence why the alliance markers are in the plaguelands on the map

hollow dock
#

alright so the alliance takes the former plaguelands, pushes down while the horde scrambles to make its defenses

ruby star
#

new build hypeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

uncut vault
#

yeah basically, seems like sylvanas' undercity stuff pushes them out of tirisfal, but not lordaeron as a whole

hollow dock
#

Im only going to assume then that the horde has just completely taken Nordrassil andall the neutral night elfland

terse patrol
#

they enslave the dwarf ghosts of dun garok

uncut vault
#

also gilneas does seem to officially be with the alliance

terse patrol
#

THIS CAN NOT STAND

sharp bluff
#

Vindicar was a portal hub someone said

uncut vault
#

nah I dont think the horde actually took anything with their push up

#

sylvanas pulled back after the burning

#

now theres a line of night elf defense at astranaar and maestra's post

terse patrol
#

The Night Elves have a small port in Darkshore used for sending refugees to Azuremysts

uncut vault
#

I really hope gilneas actually gets updates sometime this xpac, instead of just MENTIONS of how the alliance now hold and fight from it

sharp bluff
#

Sadly doubt it

#

Looking at you gnomoria

languid yoke
#

could tie it together with worgen model update but that's probably a hopeless wish

uncut vault
#

yeah but worgen are humans, so have at least triple the relevance of gnomes

sharp bluff
#

Worgen update is post BFA though

languid yoke
#

uh

#

no

sharp bluff
#

Same as goblins

strange falcon
#

I suppose no build yet?

terse patrol
#

I could MAYBE see Blizzard doing a world rework post-BFA to show how the world changed.

ruby star
#

soon Dafire

uncut vault
#

it's post 8.0, we dont know the exact timetable

languid yoke
#

it's only post 8.0, yeah

hollow dock
#

Worgen update will not come in LAUNCH of bfa

#

but it will be sometime duringBFA

#

like the other player model updates

languid yoke
#

they did mention goblins could be 8.1 cause they mentioned progress

sharp bluff
#

They already said worgen and goblin update is after BFA launchs

hollow dock
#

that is not post BFA

languid yoke
#

yes after launch

#

but not after bfa

hollow dock
#

that is post Launch

tulip sun
#

Got excited, saw the latest news channel get a post

#

But it was not the build e.e

languid yoke
#

servers are still up

hollow dock
#

Just calm on down and wait =D

languid yoke
#

starts shaking furiously

strange falcon
#

^reaching critical mass

dense plover
#

i will post when there is a build

#

if i dont miss it

sharp bluff
#

🍿

ruby star
#

In the latest build the Horde will be getting removed from the game 😎

harsh canyon
#

Instead the Cool boys will be there name

hollow dock
#

Instead the horde will have been wiped out like they should have been builds ago. Via subjugation with the Vindicaar.

ruby star
#

Orbital strike time boi's 😄

dense plover
#

its coming

sharp bluff
#

I bet the laser runs off stuff on Argus, which can’t be reached now lol

dense plover
#

maybe not right this second

#

but thats usually the post he makes right before it goes out

sharp bluff
#

No Argus crystals = no lasers

ruby star
#

Maybe the Vindacaar crashed into Telldrisial xD

sharp bluff
#

Lol

ruby star
#

thats the real reason it burned down

sharp bluff
#

That would be hilarious

ruby star
#

conspiracy theories boi's and ahah it would xD

Conspiracy theory? I can do that

#

Nothing as good as drunk spaceship driving though lol

@ruby star draneis never know how land safely RocketPurple lit

all the draeni were wasted 😂

#

@unborn pagoda true

#

too much WKD

sharp bluff
#

Isn’t that one of their jokes in game?

steel venture
#

tbh still think this build is gonna be the big one™ aka the big in-house drop

ruby star
#

Yeah it will be a big one

steel venture
#

Since beta has been weirdly slow

ruby star
#

or they are trolling us but most likely a big one

steel venture
#

So they probably had a LOT of internal stuff they were prepping

ruby star
#

Void Gnomes

unborn pagoda
#

First crashed on Draneor, after that on Azeroth, now crush on Telldrisial :D

sharp bluff
#

Gnome worgen corgis you mean Drorith

Corgen.

#

8.6 GB download for beta apparently

#

Its a big boi

dense plover

I doubt that

#

No build is out yet

#

People are trolling currently

ruby star
#

Ah nevermind they said it was a background download on launcher

dense plover
#

thats also bullshit

#

nothing has gone out for anything

theyre trash'

RED ALERT

BUILD SOON

ruby star

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

sharp bluff
#

🍿

tulip sun
#

Just woke up froms nap

ruby star
#

Welcome back

tulip sun
#

Sleep another 30? xD

ruby star
#

Might as well

tulip sun
#

Get up ans fet some news haha

sharp bluff
#

So taking bets, one murloc on Saurfang the Conflicted rejoining the horde

dense plover
#

well they probably arent going to focus on his story this patch

hollow dock
#

Ten murlocs on the alliance not getting anything done.

dense plover
#

my guess is it will mostly be further story of the expac as a whole

#

especially since it doesnt fit in to the rest of the narrative

ruby star
#

Gonna be a damn juciy build

dense plover
#

though im curious what the alliance equivalent of the voljin story will be

#

they need some kind of endgame story there

#

maybe jaina stuff?

wild pewter
#

@ me when build is up!

tulip sun
#

Do we know his story really?

rich apex
#

murloc murloc murloc for Saurfang coming back

#

What else could he possibly do

dense plover
#

no, we know nothing abbout saurfang

#

but it will likely be for later patches

#

and be tied to an overarching story for the entire expac

#

hopefully developing with saurfang learning that his life has value, and death is not a goal

rich apex
#

The dream

dense plover
#

and maybe a bit more of sylvanas stepping out of the shadows

#

otherwise she better retire as warchief or something

#

or they better show a vision of "what if sylvanas hadnt destroyed the world tree" or something

rich apex
#

Something will lead to Sylvie chilling out

#

Eventually

languid yoke
#

her death

#

<3

rich apex
#

Besides that

dense plover
#

plz no

#

we dont need SoO 2.0

rich apex
#

Exactly

dense plover
#

golden is a better writer than that

rich apex
#

And N'zoth is the finale anyways

tulip sun
#

2.0 aint happening

dense plover
#

probably

#

i hope either nzoth is the finale

#

or the leadin to next expac

#

because i want nyalotha as a full blown patch at least

#

argus size at least

rich apex
#

The other dream

tulip sun
#

I hobestly would not kind the entire expansion being war

languid yoke
#

don't need sylvanas to be an endboss of a raid

tulip sun
#

Mind*

#

I hate phones

languid yoke
#

could just die in a cinematic

#

or a quest

dense plover
#

thats worse

#

dont you remember garrosh?

languid yoke
#

nah she deserves it

dense plover
#

thats how you piss off players

rich apex
#

Anduin isn't just going to kill Sylvie in a cinematic

tulip sun
#

Sylvanas had two more libes. If she does die though

languid yoke
#

I do remember garrosh

rich apex
#

Faction balance baby

tulip sun
#

It will be for the horde

dense plover
#

if you are going to kill a character, you have to let the players do it

tulip sun
#

And when she is rezzed....

dense plover
#

especially if its part of a faction war

#

and no way it would be anduin

#

if it was a cutscene, it would be genn

tulip sun
#

I 100 percent believe she will save us all, or at least the horde. Idk what it will be

#

But i believe voljin was right in his decision

#

Her death will unify the whole horde, and after rezzed she will continue as warchief. No more lives after that

ruby star
#

Helll no

dense plover
#

i dont know what the plan is

ruby star
#

Horde needs someone honourable

tulip sun
#

Just a thought. Haja

dense plover
#

killing her definitely isnt it

ruby star
#

She should step down

dense plover
#

they could have a story about her learning about honor

#

maybe she wouldnt be honorable

tulip sun
#

Not neccesarily.

dense plover
#

but seeing her learn and appoint saurfang?

tulip sun
#

Having a saurfang is terrible

dense plover
#

that would be the shit

#

why?

#

especially if saurfang learns that his life and every life has value

#

two side by side stories

#

of each character learning a bit about the others point of view

tulip sun
#

He would rather die then live ans fight another day. We would have lost the entire horde in lordaeron

dense plover
#

and where they come to a basic understanding of eachother?

#

thats what im saying though

tulip sun
#

Maybe if he changed a tad

dense plover
#

have him learn

#

have her learn

#

friendies

tulip sun
#

I could roll with that

dense plover
#

she goes back to the forsaken

#

he goes on to lead the horde

#

eitrigg becomes leader of the orcs

tulip sun
#

In all honesty

#

I could potentially see her being the long term warchief

#

If that did bot happeb that you described

dense plover
#

she could, but not in her currrent state

#

she has to learn about honor

#

she doesnt need to change herself

tulip sun
#

She will change by the end of bda, defiantly

#

Slightly even

dense plover
#

but she has to learn to adapt her tactics to be more horde

#

or she has to leave

tulip sun
#

Tic toc tictoc

#

I wonder if they are gonna add anymore people like baine

#

Where he just stands there watching them closely lol

sharp bluff
#

Suarfang leading = bad

#

Maybe two expansions ago

#

Not now though

#

Watch him come back to help reclaim AU Dreanor though lol

dense plover
#

well baine is in the cutscene

#

in the battle for lordaeron

#

but he has no VO yet

#

might be in this build

tulip sun
#

Ya he does

dense plover
#

no i mean

uncut vault
#

He has VO

tulip sun
dense plover
#

no relevant vo thats ingame

#

bits are in the files

#

mostly tied to warfronts

tulip sun
#

But it is there

dense plover
#

but it isnt implemented

tulip sun
#

and no, it is not

dense plover
#

and there will be more probably

tulip sun
#

It is mostly for the lordaeron scenario

dense plover
#

its only 30 sec

tulip sun
#

Other side note

dense plover
#

also i thought he had warfront stuff

tulip sun
#

I totally 100% believe we will return to AU Draenor at some time

#

Rescue the surviving mag'har

#

etc.

#

and no, he is not affiliated whatsoever

#

He had lordaeron stuff

dense plover
#

well yeah

tulip sun
#

Then about advisors

dense plover
#

thats the scenario khamnin

tulip sun
#

How she has them waiting and that they are loyal

#

to the HORDE

#

I know it is peach.

#

But i don't get where you got he was involved w/ warfronts

dense plover
#

mistakes happen

#

i probably mixed up vo i heard with other vo

tulip sun
#

Oh, thought you still thought that

#

Prob, ya.

dense plover
#

i did

tulip sun
#

But

dense plover
#

until now

tulip sun
#

I don't get why

dense plover
#

when you showed me the vo

tulip sun
#

But I really like these generic troops e.e

dense plover
#

the leaders change

tulip sun
#

Seeing all members of factions pulling their weight, sending soldiers

dense plover
#

i figured he was one of the leaders

sharp bluff
#

welll there are two options in my mind for AU, go back and save the orcs, or we go back and find them dead/slaves to the light

dense plover
#

ya know like liadrin or eitrigg

#

but he isnt

tulip sun
#

Rokhan, Eitrigg or Liadrin for horde

dense plover
#

yeah

#

which is why baine would make sense

#

3 big racial leaders

#

but not baine

#

even though the main forces are orcs and tauren

tulip sun
#

Wouldn't really say those three are huge racial leaders

dense plover
#

ALTHOUGH

#

maybe the barrens warfront

tulip sun
#

Maybe prominent members of their races

dense plover
#

when that happens

#

it would make sense then

tulip sun
#

I mean, I cannot say it wouldn't be cool

dense plover
#

because mulgore is right there

tulip sun
#

But I think the leaders will be like

#

2nd teir

#

tier

dense plover
#

and gazlowe or gallywix would make sense too

#

since azshara and ogrimmar are near there too

tulip sun
#

Gazlowe already leads an island expedition, so idk about that(BUT DAMN, that would be amazing to see Gazlowe and ratcher goblins openly fighting for us)

#

Well, technically they are

#

But sitll

dense plover
#

i mean

#

we have 3 vo leaders

#

a different set of 3 for the other warfront?

tulip sun
#

I would assume

dense plover
#

that would make sense

tulip sun
#

Or who knows, they may be the same

#

I'd like new ones

#

But -shrug-

#

Don't know what they are thinking yet

dense plover
#

theyll have to at least change a bit

tulip sun
#

I know for certain at least one prominent tauren will be a leader.

dense plover
#

since having two warfronts with the exact same content would suck

tulip sun
#

If the leaders are changed

dense plover
#

there is no other tauren leader though

#

i mean

tulip sun
#

Hamuul, Aponi, Uhhhh

#

Dezco

dense plover
#

lasan would be cool i guess

tulip sun
#

Lasan too, that'd work

dense plover
#

or mayla

#

though i hate her voice

#

so much

#

its so bad

tulip sun
#

I don't know about Mayla.

dense plover
#

i would rather lasan
