On Sunday, we reported that Tigole had hinted at the possibility of dual-specs coming in soon after the expansion. However, Blizzard developer Ghostcrawler commented on the issue earlier, and said that we would learn more at BlizzCon:
[BLUE=“http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=10638063159&pageNo=1&sid=2000#13”]We will continue to change talent effects before Lich King ships, but don’t expect a lot more massive rejuggling of the trees themselves. The dual-spec feature will shine more light on talent design (more on that at Blizzcon) and we’ll have a better idea of what we want to do with trees when that goes live.[/BLUE]
Community manager Nethaera also talked a little about two more features that players would like to see added to WoW. Blizzard seem to be softening to the ideas:
[BLUE=“http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=1777868944&pageNo=60&sid=1#1198”]We’ve stated before that player housing is a consideration for some point in the future, but it would need to be thought out carefully and would want to maximize their usefullness. As always, suggestions are welcome in the Suggestion Forum.
Surnames are another thing we’ve said are a possibility at some point in time. Just keep in mind that with many things, there are often technical considerations that come into play as well as time tables that must be considered. We need to take a look at how much work it would take and how much time it would take and weigh that in with all of the other features that we want to add into the game or improve upon.
We’ve been working to add more touches into the interactivity of quests, the world, and atmosphere overall wherever we can. You’ll find more seating added in within various areas. You’ll find some larger more welcoming inns in some areas, or even just open spaces that allow for RPers to gather in.
In Dalaran, you’ll get to experience added touches such as a toy shop, the Barbershop, and pet store. There are more touches than that you will experience as you explore Northrend.[/BLUE]
I no longer play WoW due to being burnt out and interested in WAR. I do like how WoW is trying to change up a bit and bring more to the game to keep up with WAR and some other titles. If Blizzard keeps this up, I will have to resub.
