WoW : The First Trailer (rare)

[rachelmortis]

:o



[KiryuLegion]

Is it me or did the announcer sound like Optimums Prime?

[BeachpigFTW]

@KiryuLegion It was, Peter Cullen, the voice of Prime!

[anthon919]

@SuperWtFoO dude skill and pve shouldn't be in the same sentence,it's dumbasses like you that don't understand if blizzard kept that same content for years it would get very boring very fast and they would lose all their subscribers.

[bigbird2007]

lolz at about 1:00 proper looks like the Dovahkiin lol

[BaalBlade]

Ok all...reality check. Yes, Pandaren do exist in Warcraft 3. Yes with Rexxar in Expansion campaign, and also one of the playable heroes, this is the fact, mainly because some panda lover developer at Blizzard design decide to add it in on last minute. BUT that doesn't make it logic for KUNG FU panda in Chinese costume to exist in a fantasy knight dragon genre. That's why it's is awkward

[hw121693]

from World of warcraft to World of equipments, achievements and gearscore

[crusadercanio]

@hw121693 and noobs

[michl1299]

And now , a world of equip

[Tawaxyon]

Remember when i saw this like 6 years ago and jizzed my pants.

[Paintchk218]

Prime:AUTOBOTS!! LETS GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!!!

Magatron: Prime, you just giving up like that?

Prime: You can have WOW. Its dead like Cyber...oops..too soon?

Magateon: -.-

[Hitmanx16]

@Paintchk218 Magateon?

[Paintchk218]

@Hitmanx16 yes....

[PoisonYoshi]

The next WOW Expansion:

World of Warcraft: The Search for More Money

[tiwilli7]

Blizzard should have stopped at lich king or BC, i understand they used the plot line from Warcraft-Warcraft 3 but now that their done with that story line there making up there own, with pandas n what not. just stop making expansions for a bit and focus on making a GOOD story line. without fukin make believe characters. next were gunna get to play as fuking unicorns. stop this madness that WoW is becoming. like if you agree.

[CDoomer]

@tiwilli7 Actually there was a pandaren hero in Warcraft 3, haven't you play The founding of Durotar, mr. big-fan?

[thatunrecognizedguy]

@tiwilli7 well. ALL of blizzards stories are made up and they were all made by blizzard. and there was a pandaren brewmaster IN THE CAMPAIGN of warcraft III

[Mrfisteration]

oh I remember when I was this on my Wc3 disc, I nearly shat my pants of exitement.

But now my heart is aching for what it has become!

[TheSuckaBiatch]

WoW is ruined and will NEVER be the same..

[Gemmavive]

:-D :-)

[thundergaze]

R.I.P. since now we have non veterans QQing on the ford and turning the game into a pyramid. The greatness of the game ended when vanilla ended, yet I still play it to anticipate something that will hopefully partially fill the void that this great game left.

[xOMFGxAxPiratex]

@thundergaze thats some bull vanilla was great but alot of what you remember is nostalgia i still play vanilla on private servers and its not that amazing it was probably the best during bc then went downhill from there

[thwaitsey1]

isnt the very first 1 the very first wow trailer was on the WArcraft 2 exp and showed a team of adventurers walking across a bridge in stv wasnt the same gfx but was world of warcraft

[cobboy3]

that dragon in the end...... I wonder what blizzard says about it now that they have the bad ass dragon death wing lol

[2OP4U]

@cobboy3 They had awesome dragons during vanilla so I doubt that consider DW as something special.

[PKbugg]

The undeads got me playing. The Undead summoning a Infernal got me addicted.

[MrEddieswife]

waaaaaaaaaa i miss world of warcraft (vanilla) 4 years since i stopped playing it, i never even bothered to get BC when it came out, so many memories. sigh, i feel old.

[vGDavidB]

A world of honor? No more, now everyone is in the same shit.

A word of mystery? Not so mysterious if everyone knows whats going to happen next.

A world of danger? I can just fly a bird over things that can kill me.

[Meburningyou]

@vGDavidB Quit bitching and play something else.

[Zerjulie]

@vGDavidB My son started the first guild on our server back in these days..our motto "Blood and Honor" . I agree, sadly the player base does not seem familiar with this word "honor" and the mystery has vanished. Regardless, great game, and I suppose I will continue playing until the bitter end of it!

[Midnightauro]

This makes me want to go back to the beginning where Azeroth was new and scary to me... Great video though, wish this is how they promoted it today.

[GoldSenpai]

@Midnightauro Yeah, back before flying mounts. Back where there was that adventure feeling of having to watch where you stepped. Now you just fly over everything, a tleast they realized the mistake and change it a lil for MoP but it still won't be the same.

[KingLevi10000]

hey optimus primes voice

[Sorflakne]

Ok, which one of you made Ony deep breath?

[PervyLion]

those models shown in the cinematic are the original models for World of Warcraft characters/npcs, before the game was edited

[tonib000y]

reign of chaos? :P

[k3ldo69]

WHY DOES THIS SOUND LIKE OPTIMUS PRIME??!?!!?

[MrAstericks]

@k3ldo69 cause it is

[k3ldo69]

@MrAstericks *Boom...* <-- my mind exploding

[sorm911]

remember when hunters had to actually earn their pets

[PervyLion]

@sorm911 that was never true, they had to do a small quest to unlock the move Tame Beast but besides that they never had to earn their pets

[sorm911]

@PervyLion i rember my first hunter. he was a tauran. i didnt start with a pet until level 14 those fourteen levels are like hell compared to the easy going life of hunters now. also hunters used to be able to phisicaly control their pets

[Sorflakne]

@sorm911 Wait, what? Hunters can't do Eye of the Beast or whatever it's called anymore?

[sorm911]

@Sorflakne nope

[Induktio1984]

We have come far from these moments

[TheSymbioZ]

A bit too many tags.

[MrPyroguy1]

R.I.P vanila.

[zanazans]

Y'all enjoy that Fus Ro Dah at the end??

[ForTGamez]

first trailer, posted in 2008

u know wow was made in 2001 -.-

[Stefan11101990]

@ForTGamez you might want to read the description sometimes perhaps maybe mhmm?

[megamage911]

@ForTGamez wow was not made in 2001 dude,,, that was warcraft 3...

[ForTGamez]

@megamage911

....omfg... gtfo my life u dont know shittt

[megamage911]

@ForTGamez wow wasn't released until 2005...

[megamage911]

@ForTGamez and if you're refering to the date the video was posted on youtube,,, this was never an officially released trailer, this was a feature found on the WC3 disk and even if it was,,, as far as i know, youtube wasn't around until somewhere late 2005 or in somewhere in the beginning of 2006

[ForTGamez]

@megamage911 maybe.. maybe but i saw a 2001 trailer so dont bullshit me

[megamage911]

@ForTGamez well now we're just discussing our perception on when a game is "made", imo, it was not made in 2001, since it was only in the beginning of the development of it, imo it hasn't been made before it is released

[ForTGamez]

@megamage911

DUDE IF U WERE SMART U KNEW IT WAS ALPHA WOW IN 2001 NOW STFU UR DOING MY HEAD IN

[megamage911]

@ForTGamez yes,,, alpha,,, that means testing still, far from "made" :P

[ForTGamez]

@megamage911

Well ye, i meant it was like in Testing... but i never said "testing" xD

[TheAeolus1]

Chills

[kebabpojken]

Man, where was my Optimus Prime in Vanilla?

[SkruffyPretzals]

Optimus prime does voice-overs.

[WTFudgeMvz]

Did you know the voice actor for optimus prime does this guys voice.

[soltrov]

Optimus Prime?



[eliminator3]

@soltrov yeah, Peter Cullen...

[eliminator3]

Peter Cullen... gotta love the voice...

[randommaster321]

a unexplored world? you cant really say that 7 years after it came out

[randommaster321]

da music at first was so depressing 

[marafejt]

Do somebody know the name of this song?

[artofguiness]

@marafejt a tear in the open

[MrSmakification]

Thumbs up if you noticed that its Optimus Primes voice that is narrating this.

[SophieStudios999]

How does a video about a trailer result to pandarens?

[zoo16york]

anyone notice how it is Optimus Prime's voice narrating?

[DjMiixz]

Yes! Amazing! Also, main characters, knight elfs ect amazing! death knight even better! worgen/goblin yes better! Panda's and monks, wtf?

[eliminator3]

@DjMiixz No offense here, but the BLOOD elves and Draenei were in the first expansion (The Burning Crusade)... not night elves... Nonetheless, I completely agree with you Pandas have no place in WoW... what next, Shrek for the Horde and Buzz Lightyear for the Alliance?

[CorvintusDK]

@eliminator3

There were actually Pandarens in Warcraft 3. The Brewmaster, so it can't be that big of a surprise for you.

[eliminator3]

@CorvintusDK no one said it was a surprise, I just think it's dumb that they are attaching what already was to the coat tails of Dreamworks movie...

[johnwolf10]

@eliminator3 if you say that pandas have no place in wow then you know nothing about warcraft

[TheFanboy68]

0:38 This reminds me of the day when tauren were cool and tribal now there holy paladins and priests it just doesn't make sense.

[nikhalk]

Looks more like a trailer for Oblivion :P

[Anyon123]

Blizzard reckon that this panda expansion is going to save WoW... Not by a long chance. WoW has been loosing rep since WOTLK. I want the old wow back. Its not the same with Cata now. New Zones. Missing Zones. F*cked up Zones. Orgrimmar is a mess. My own opinion.

[wtfmrkratos]

@Anyon123 I agree 100% everything looks like shit compared to how it use to. I even started during wotlk, and i liked it much more than it is now.

[CandGPxexpert]

Thumbs up if you remember watching this from the Warcraft 3 launcher.

[6FriendsOfMc]

@CandGPxexpert yeah

[GeneralArrow]

@CandGPxexpert Now the real kicker is if you remember seeing Warcraft 3 from the Brood War launcher! hah.

[termana1]

@CandGPxexpert

when you start a warcraft 3 singleplayer campaign or what? never saw that trailer even though i play wc3

[Claymore2408]

@termana1 when the launcher appears click cinematics/trailers.

[13lackLight]

Damn, this is that same music from that DJ tiesto song.. A tear in the Open?

[jjjac213]

peter cullen



[pikmin342]

What blizzard should do is bring servers up and make some severly like vanilla wow and no patches just release everything at once and people can work their own way up and same for BC and wotlk make servers with their content so those who didnt enjoy the BC and vanilla wow content (these people i feel bad for cause wow currently sucks) . or simply make the content harder. seriously wotlk was rediculous u could down the lich king first day

[TemptfateEU]

@pikmin342 If they made those servers, they wouldnt update them since their focus is on bringing the lore further, which would make them really boring. And of course people that have been doing LK 100times before on public test realm down him fest, but did you notice how long it took them to kill the Heroic version. And you can base your thoughts on what high end guilds do that get payed for playing. I bet you have never downed HC LK becouse it was too hard for you.

[MonsterMasher5759]

holy shits it optimus

[213Syncz]

holy shit. i didnt know optimus prime played WoW

[ServerClosedfromhera]

whats vanilla wow? the first wow with lvl cap 60 ?

[wassup986]

@ServerClosedfromhera Yep. It's the first version of WoW, or WoW before the first expansion. Some people even consider WoW + Burning Crusade to be Vanilla WoW. Everything after Burning Crusade, though, is out of the picture.

[tomixas55]

do i hear Optimus Prime?:)

[HammoudAzzam]

Awesome Graphic 0:16

[pikmin342]

Just bring back vanilla wow and they would bring back more subscribers

[Mr84610]

@pikmin342 It sounds like a good idea, but really when you get to max level and finish doing everything you can do (which I seriously doubt most people will even do), then what? Wait for TBC? WotLK? Cataclysm? There's no progression after vanilla is over if they ever bring back vanilla WoW.

[Temprael]

I used to play World of Warcraft. Then I took a Skyrim in the hard drive.

[EyeR8]

This is rare? It's on the Collectors Edition DVD. Along with all the other old trailers.

[TheGamingDuos]

1:05

NEVER KNEW SKYRIM WAS LINKED WITH WARCRAFT!!!

[reesalas]

1:08 R.I.P thrall ='(

[NoName1462]

@reesalas I believe that's Medivh :P

[amadaria]

@reesalas He's not dead. Aggra is pregnant and he's going to be a daddy. The Aspects are still alive even.

[reesalas]

@amadaria i didnt mean he was dead i ment i miss when he was the warchief not hellscream

[MVGkaiser]

Wow, didn't know Optimus played WoW.

[metalmilitia137]

Personally if I would've played wow back in vanilla, I think I wouldn't have liked it that much because of all the grinding required. Tbh I have a very short attention span so yeah lol

[Jiggowut]

I didn't know Optimus Prime played WoW!

[Serjhey]

A world........deserted because people don't venture beyond the gates of mighty kingdoms

[SuperWtFoO]

r.i.p vanilla and Bc, I want that epic feeling back when WoW was a game that was interesting and a game where you have to farm hours for your items. where you did have to gather kind of.. 5 hours or more for an AV.. a game that gave you such an amazing feeling.. a game that implyed skill if you wanted to play good and difficult pve

[robertsj550]

Peter Cullen can make anything awesome just with his voice

[PvtFreddy]

Do you remember the days when World of Warcraft was good?

[schnacker41]

Anyone knows the song from the beginning of this trailer?

[artofguiness]

@schnacker41  check out "a tear in the open" by tiesto. I'm not joking. I don't know which one came first. I hope I helped :-)

[schnacker41]

@artofguiness :D Haha Tiesto? Really? but thats not the one... melody might be a little similar but it's different

[artofguiness]

@schnacker41 well that's the closest I could find to help you :) wikipedia: "A Tear In The Open" is originally a gaelic folk song called Ailein duinn, first featured as a film score in the movie Rob Roy and afterwards as the well known interpretation by Scottish folk band Carpercille.

[schnacker41]

@artofguiness Well I looked it up and wow the original song is just amazing! Thanks for showing that one to me!:)

[artofguiness]

@schnacker41 no problem my friend :)

[kserwin]

i loved vanilla cause the classes felt different, but yes, it was bad in alot of ways, but also very good in many ways, take the improvements aka glyphs and new talent trees, new proffessions and DKs and i think vanilla would be the best wow ever

[damianrowgaloo]

They should make a wow movie

[hypnolobster]

Lol. I've been playing since about 6 months after release. Vanilla was awful. Fantastic in a lot of ways, but totally awful.

[WGMindless]

Honestly, guys, I have played since year 1 of the game...

Vanilla sucked, honestly. Once a week you'd go to a single raid, there'd be about a 3% chance the item you wanted would drop, and you had to roll against 39 other dudes to get it.

The game was horribly unbalanced, and some aspects were straight-up broken. It's just a strange sense of nostalgia that makes you want the old world back, but it was pretty fucking terrible.

The game has improved vastly over the years.

[MrgunNut101]

ya expansions ruined the game....

[MattExzy]

From this to fricking pandas ;(

[BlakOktobure]

@MattExzy Yes, because cow-people, dog-people, deer-people, horse-people, bird-people, bear-people (O wait, aren't Pandas bears?), and walrus people, are way less absurd than Panda-People?

[MattExzy]

@BlakOktobure Yes! How did you know ;)

[DzoGavert]

@BlakOktobure

cow, deers, horses, birds, bears, walrus adleast are not considered wacky cute pushovers because of pixar.

[BlakOktobure]

@DzoGavert Bambi. Winnie the Poo. Tweety..

Your point? They're different. One is a Pandaren, which has been in WoW for a while. Pandas aren't necessarily cute creature.

[DzoGavert]

@BlakOktobure

Nobody from this generation watched Bambi... or Winnie the Poh... or Merry Melodies for that matter.

How many people from this generation saw "Kung Fu Panda"? a lot...

How many people thus have got an impression that Pandas are cute whacky wannabe-cool pushovers? a lot...

[BlakOktobure]

@DzoGavert Most kids that play WoW were born in the 90's have seen those, all of those. I don't know many 8-10 year olds that play WoW and spend their time bitching on Forums. :P

[DzoGavert]

@BlakOktobure

Bad generalization with no facts or statistic support.

[BlakOktobure]

@DzoGavert Quite true, actually. Most of the players were either born, or alive during the 90's. The average age of the WoW player is 28.3 (nickyee com/daedalus/archives/001365)

Even then, "generalisation with no facts or statistical support" sums up the bitching of this new expansion, pretty well. :P

[kirbyofkirbykirby]

@MattExzy PANDAS ARE AWESOME!

[Geccore]

@kirbyofkirbykirby not for the grown up part of the civilisation.

[Saber9933]

@MattExzy The irony of this statement is that "this" trailer was packaged with a game that also had pandas in it.

Hm.

[AssasinsGamer454]

@MattExzy I think they should have stoped at cata.

[Ivvyfay]

@MattExzy ... Seriously? The "frickin pandas" were in Warcraft 3 which, according to the person who posted this video, is where this trailer came from. Chen Stormstout, one of those "frickin pandas", was mentioned in Vanilla wow in a quest in the barrens. You sir, are obviously a wrath baby. You don't get to complain about "frickin pandas"

[MattExzy]

@Ivvyfay No, I'm a top comment baby, therefor showing my opinion is popular.

[Aazerel]

@MattExzy I agree, blizz have completely lost it.

[Vgkgamer]

@MattExzy ...The "pandas" as you call them were there since Warcraft 3...something which existed BEFORE World of Warcraft.

Early designs of WoW actually incorporated the Panderan into them,

[MattExzy]

@Vgkgamer They are straight up pandas. And true, but they were a joke race, and they were worked in as vanity pets into WoW. That's where they should have stopped with them. They might have been a good idea way back then, but they're just too cutesy now, especially since pandas have been 'Disney-fied' from the likes of Kung Fu Panda.

[scat4u]

@MattExzy well the pandarianz were in one of the original warcraft games. i'm with you though, it's a tad off, but i'm going to with hold judgement until i've played it. i think they should stop the expansions and just create an entirely new game with much more interactivity (environments, npcs, etc).

[FuzzyFruits]

@scat4u No they weren't it was a god damn easter egg they or not part of the lore.

[DJBoy37]

@FuzzyFruits They were in lore in the barrens with rexxar you fucking idiot

[MattExzy]

@DJBoy37 You need to calm down, boy. F this, F that, it's a game, brah, and pandas are retarded and don't belong in it. Sure, pandas existed before WoW, they existed millions of years before WoW, but they don't belong in WoW. Simple.

[killerxbeastx1]

@MattExzy STFU and stop whinning

[MattExzy]

@killerxbeastx1 lol wow, I wrote this like a month ago, I can't believe people are still replying, I don't care now. Lordy, have your pandas ye'all.

[DJBoy37]

@MattExzy Pandaren have been around before World of Warcraft existed you fucking idiot.

[Wrestlingfan414]

@MattExzy What's bad about pandas? They are in Warcraft lore, not just some new random race.

[TJ5897]

@MattExzy The pandas have been in Warcraft lore longer than the Draenei.

Ever play Warcraft 3? Remember Chen?

[RageOfTheTiger]

(speaks in Hot Rod's whisper from Transformers animated movie during Prime's death) "Optimus......"

[Shabasky1]

Don't tell me that was actually death wing at the end..

[martincro3]

@Shabasky1 i doubt so but Deathwing is just a Dragon clan leaded by Nefarian i think

[aranhaloco]

the expasions destroyed the game.

[housedamnrock]

all these aspects was once in the game now.. they don't exist

[Latooni11]

New Expansion announced: Mists of the Metatron.

Join with Optimus Prime, and his epic narrative voice, as he attempts to restore the values and honor that Warcraft once held high.

Coming December of 2012, Warcraft will never be the same again.

[zanntoruk]

Did anyone else notice Optimus narrating the vid? o.0

[inventive01]

@zanntoruk Hahaha that was the very first thing that ran through my head

[666klives]

nice trailer shame the game will never look like that

[LeSnupiz]

1. Aint rare to find this trailer.

2. REALLY RARE PET AT LAST LOL

[Citzen92]

orc shaman part is verry good

[ayannaxsesshy]

I'm telling you... They should REALLY make a movie!!! D=

[Kailyeh]

@ayannaxsesshy Which they are...

[ayannaxsesshy]

@Kailyeh really??? Where'd you hear that from? 9o9 The blizzard website?

[Kailyeh]

@ayannaxsesshy Dude, It's been out for quite some time now. However, since Blizzard is behind the project it will take some time. They had a panel during Blizzcon 2007, discussion the concept of the movie along with Legendary Pictures, where they announced director, movie concepts and so on and so forth. There are also few parts out on youtube from the panel discussion, as I cannot post links ill just ask that you search for "Blizzcon 2007 world of warcraft movie panel". Enjoy.

[ayannaxsesshy]

@Kailyeh =O

[Dorrajtheexplorer]

R.I.P. vanilla :(
