[HQ] Blizzcon 2009 - World of Warcraft: Cataclysm Announcement

[tomjinthehouse123432]

doubt they would cheer that much if they knew what the expansion would be like ;D

[CatcherP57]

I remember this day as if it was yesterday… good times :(

[SpacePyjamas]

God damn, Chris Metzen is a fucking BOSS at announcing things.

[terminario8000]

they should have raised the level cap to 90 or 100

[PaladinWin]

@terminario8000 Why?

[terminario8000]

@PaladinWin idk i just thought it would be cool

[PaladinWin]

@terminario8000 Sure but it would be annoying as HELL imagine leveling up alts to 100!

[terminario8000]

@PaladinWin it would be wesome in my opinion

[PaladinWin]

@terminario8000 Well they are making it 30% easier to lvl now so might imagine that most people dont like to lvl

[zanbimaru]

@PaladinWin only in northrend

[terminario8000]

I want Path of the Titans made!

[Alcanmage]

Unfortunately, the announcement is much better than the actual game. :/

[TheWickerMan1995]

@Alcanmage what you talking about? cata is awesome

[bluey1695]

@TheWickerMan1995 no not really

[TheWickerMan1995]

@bluey1695 well it was a lot better than Wrath but that doesn't take much, i could make a better expansion than Wrath on Microsoft paint. Gay ass raids, shit dungeons, shit quests,

[Bollalillo]

@TheWickerMan1995 it was awesome, then it became all about the noobs again. Even easier then Lich king shit

[cronicd21]

whats path of the titans?

[wtflawlbags]

@cronicd21 they didnt have time to release it apparently.

[Bladenavor]

@cronicd21 As usual with blizzard, cancled.

[JaykobTheBozz]

patch 4.3 is comming :D

[IceWolf217]

Nerd screams make me happy :3

One day I'll go to Blizzcon! ONE DAY D:

[tangoman111]

Hopefully Next Expac we will see announced in Bcon11 this October.

[tangoman111]

@tangoman111 And hopefully it will be even more EPIC than this announcement!

[Chocolateman543]

@tangoman111 im sure it will

[klyspeez]

thumbs up if u didnt "watch this video"

[WeirdAl45231]

my cousin and I cried because we SO wished we had been there when it premiered!

[666MetalRowan]

watching this gave me goosebumps from head to toe

[MiguelCrespo85]

@666MetalRowan only got 1 toe? lol

[istheshiz]

To ya'll who insist the worgen should've been Alliance, stfu.

Goblins > Worgen.

For the Horde!

Let the Alliance keep the puppies.

[Liamxx8]

Cool, let the horde keep the green midgets.

Worgen>Goblin

[TheNinjaghostdog]

@Liamxx8 Teh fuck?

Your tripping.

[desire00w]

@istheshiz it makes sense that the worgen are ally since they are cursed humans.. duh?

[Bartron206]

world of warcraft....CATACLYSM!

[thephox]

Over a year ago but now so close :D

[Bollalillo]

i still getting chills from this<3 ive watched it alot of times

[KrazyK923]

Metzen's final word: "CATACLYSM!" and the cheers was just...so, so epic.

[SappedPanda]

Craft... CATACLYSM

[versionintegrale]

wtf how can a tauren be a paladin? only bloodelfs can because they stole a god or whatever. someone explain plz >.<

[Dandel96]

@versionintegrale You could always google it=) Taurens worship the sun. Therefor, Tauren Paladins are actually Sun walkers. But because of gameplay mechanics, they are still paladins=) The lore leadup to them can be hinted by 2 taurens discussing somewhere in Thunder bluff;P

[Dandel96]

[NeroVurilProductions]

@versionintegrale Apparently they went to Ice Crown and saw the light or some shit like that... Or because the Horde need more paladins because gay elfs suck.

[MagiskaVidunder]

@NeroVurilProductions

Oh dear, learn your lore. Tauren can be Paladins because one smart tauren realised that maybe someone should pray for the sun instead of the moon. The tauren has the moon as their main deity (same as the Night Elfs, but at the heart of the tauren beliefs lays balance. Balance in nature etc. So to bring dedication to only one of the two eyes of the earth mother is shattering their view of the balance.

[MagiskaVidunder]

@MagiskaVidunder

So, some Tauren started to worship the Sun, and became Tauren Sunwalkers. Sunwalkers gain their power from the sun, not the Holy Light like other Paladins or Priests. The use of the Paladin/Priest class is only a substitute so Blizzard don't have to create a new class.

AKA Tauren Paladins aren't Paladins. They're Sunwalkers.

And Blood Elfs became Paladins because they bent the Light to their will... (But really because Blizzard wanted every class to be available to both sides)

[MagiskaVidunder]

@MagiskaVidunder

LOREBOMBED

[NeroVurilProductions]

@MagiskaVidunder Not from me, from a friend =]

[versionintegrale]

how much would you of jizzed if you were there when they showed this?

[Clucky117]

@versionintegrale So much even god would be amazed.

[totalwarrior2008]

the horde were pleased with goblins, but they didnt see what was coming for the alliance....

[versionintegrale]

@totalwarrior2008 haha yeh its about time we alliance got a race that people think. ( damn!!!)

[BLAZEftwcc]

[Bourdain]

Funniest comment ever.

[anpe1001]

His mind was blown away.

[Shadowrager]

I LOVE YOU!!! That made my day!

[x51havoc]

@Reneg4dez I was sitting right across from a speaker that blew when the dragon roared, was intense.

[StormProductionzZ]

@Reneg4dez actually they had ..what do you call it in english..not fireworks but things that only explode?it was done by professionals, blizzard mentioned it in their blizzcasts, timed explosion :P

[ClassicMetalLive]

@StormProductionzZ pyrotechnics

[surlybeve]

@Reneg4dez

Another explosion at 6:45 :P

[broken2233]

[chimp358]

[McBlemmen]

[StormProductionzZ]

@Reneg4dez no..blizzard wanted a boom at the end of the trailer

[NeroVurilProductions]

@Reneg4dez XD, Sounds like someone dropped a piano or something XD

[TheAnimefan112]

@Reneg4dez your comment made me laugh so hard that when i tried clicking the thumbs up button ia ccidently hit the thumb down button instead....soz bro D:

[Andragorans]

As usual - GREAT story, but whats with the shitty new races - werewolves?! WoW is going down with every expansion.

[Sulu41]

When they announced the new races i remember the crowd almost falling out of their chairs in nerd glee. Was friggen hilarious. good times, good times

[ilIusion89]

i heard there will be a Belf Warrior?

if its true i'm definitely making one for pvp

[takatoekoe]

i looked up ..dwarf shaman? HAHAHAH

[frestylezz]

wow... Azeroth looks pretty screwed... it looked more peaceful before...

[iwillliveon]

@frestylezz

trust me - you´ll love the new Azeroth

[nicha112]

And the croud goes mad... I love it

[condog121]

guys dont judge a book by its cover you could really like it im looking foward it could be a great game it is the most adicting game in the world just rember thats it new

you like the others maybe youll like this

DONT JUDGE A BOOK BYE ITS COVER!!!!

[MessiiG]

how much more horrible can wow become? wotlk killed it idk maybe clysm can bring the fun back.... i think flying in azeroth is too much...

[r34p3r1992]

@MessiiG I kinda agree, i mean i remember when there we're no flying mounts .... I mean ... what the hell happend to those good old days ? :<

[Lonehwolf1]

when flyers were introduced, i believe the control i had skyrocketed in the game. Definitely a great addition imo.

[iRamUrMother]

actually bc kinda ruined it when they removed attunments and made it somewhat spoon fed but wrath is now 100 % spoon fed. But all blizzard is doing is trying to make as much money as possible befor wow dies.

[GOllumboy101]

WoW dies? Dude their is going to be atleast 2 more expansions after Cata.

[iRamUrMother]

doesn't mean their going 2 be good plus blizzard has their A team working on d3 and sc2.

[GOllumboy101]

I never said it would be good or bad. I said WoW isn't dying. Read next time.

[lithrann75]

@MessiiG ur right cause think of all the ganking now and easier raids on home citys!

[Felixje0]

It's just natural?

[treali]

@MessiiG I don't think you even played in pre tbc. Maybe tbc but not earlier.

[Drayneee]

worgen only look *cool but their racial abilitys suck

[bbenjoe]

WoW patch v4.01 will make them a fur-ry Chuck Norris, and the Goblins' skin will be turned into pink.

Kidding. Just give a little trust to Blizzard. :) peace

[zyntax95]

lol the look of goblin obviously owns the look of worgen... wtf? go to shadowfang keep and look at the worgen yourself, i would cry if i get that race on my faction lol... looks horrible imo. Goblins are ftw, played one in Warhammer

[prototype72177]

haha good one the worgen are sick... i would shoot myself in the face if i had a goblin with me

[Saxiona2]

@zyntax95 They made different skins for the playable ones. Blizz thought running around in old worgen skin would look stupid too.

[condog121]

@zyntax95 goblins dont look good

THEY LOOK WEird but in armour they would look sick

[r34p3r1992]

@zyntax95 Not the same .... The once in SFK are Sons of arugal (Cursed and MC'd by him) We play the free willd once

[Yabbs1004]

damn, as much as i hate alliance i am going to have to make a worgen

[sectumsempra55]

@Yabbs1004

Yeah that's right. Cataclysm will shift all the paladins to worgens. Hallaluyah

[clint533]

Man the worgen look so bad-ass...

[ExpertGamer951]

Sad thing, I won't be enjoying any of this, seeing as how the patches have been glitching me hard lately, the only way I will enjoy Cataclysm in it's full glory (AKA Ultra settings which I can do now) is if I get a new computer.

[MarkIsCharmed]

i want wait for this.. september 2010 thats ages lol

i cant wait to be a Worgen

[DrKillaser]

i liked Wotlk ingame trailer more then cataclysm's..but i think cataclysm's will be better after they make a cenimatic

[DawnFailCry]

@DrKillaser ive been checking Blizzard.com every day since this moment. No cinematic :(

[GovWillKillU]

without the nationalist fervor, the game has lost its appeal a bit. since we can play both factions on the same server; its made it less, not more.

[THEWEEABOOHUNTER]

@GovWillKillU

...not everyone enjoys pvp servers, getting ganked when lvling sucks, so people play pve and make both factions, doesn't ruin the game at all

[Blackbirds1217]

musclecar i know right there gonna be like mage get ready to cast slowfall and now and then all the engineers will parachute mages will slowfall and priests will levitate and then pallys will bubble damn thats not fair.

[SuperFlyingDonkey]

Amazing

[starzrpg]

this is gonna be fricken ausome

[catalincatala]

omg! wow is geting closer and closer to takeing over the world... the real one:))

[MuscleCar360]

Guild leveling system, im wondering how that works. im glad horde has a gnome type now. might be more tied in PvP with different classes on characters. Also, leveling area for 1-60 is gonna be way different. i think, or atleast i hope. they make it so if your level 80 or did a certain quest in Northrend the world turns to Catalysm, or i might just be imagining. Very nice introduction. but really mounts in Azeroth i hope they added NPC air units for Main citys or its gonna be very easy to raid...

[MuscleCar360]

The new secondary proffesion is hopefully a use for WoW. Im more excited for SC2 which they keep messing with the times to realease. my account has been hacked and they used a false credit card on it so now its locked for 15$ tell i pay it so yeah. SC2 is my top thing to get tell i get a ViSa card.

[bersi4kzero]

the change is not depending on your character. it will change forever and for everyone. so if u make a new char, it will play through the cataclysm. i dont know if everything will be shattered right after CC is released or if they will change it step by step like an event, but the world will never be the same again.

[TheJudgeMan1]

example. u go and kill van cleef on heroic. ure guild will get points. after ppl level up their proffesions, run instances, get glyphs the points add up to like a talent point and then the gm spends it. theres a talent tree. spells like mass resurection or mass summon or guild mounts, guild instances all that good stuff. some raids are only acceceble by a high level guild. cataclysm. it will be very easy to pug begining 3.3 cuz cross server lfg is awesome. btw 4.0 will be released spring 2010

[anderseromofil]

Cross server pug? O.o LOVE IT <3!

[Dimeinurear]

Ittle work like leveling a player will. Basically, the longer the guild exists, the more it progresses, ittle gain "experience points." Guilds will get TALENTS, such as a mass resurrection spell (30 minute CD) or a talent thattle increase the amount of gold received from boss kills by 7%, and that amount will go straight to the Gbank. There'll also be a spawn of the LFG system, Looking for Guild. Basically, Blizz is going to try and encourage players to join guilds.

[DiabloiiiKore]

Diablo III Kore - GOOGLE IT

[Eyeh8wytppl]

losers and oh yea that guy that says he still gets p*ssy just remember to deflate her at night

[death2160]

did blizz have to destroy azeroth?

[awaker200]

so... while the armys are fighting the lichking deathwing is pwning azeroth

[TheOrangeFondler]

i lold at heroic deadmines getting a big cheer

[anderseromofil]

I think its awesome :D
