Blizzard

A new build will be coming to the Public Test Realm (PTR) this week and will only contain non-player facing changes that are required for Shadowlands. We wanted to provide an advance notice that there won’t be any new features to be tested in this build.

Comment by rossyysI know they say nothing new will be implemented but I'm hoping for at least something, maybe a limited-time cosmetic because BfA is the first expansion since Cataclysm not to have a challenge mode with limited time transmog and whatnot.Comment by 1412075This post was from a user who has deleted their account.Comment by ramajukoEverybody's whinging about BFA yet you're all still here....Comment by AngerftwI hope this means we're getting Shadowlands later than expected. Applying the necessary fixes on the game while we are in the lull state of BfA and allowing the development pipeline to breath to test things out in good time for Shadowlands will ensure they won't choke on damage control as they did with BfA. The entire expansion was a 2-year long lull. What's another year, really? The damage is already done.Comment by VynillinSo, still stuck with a boring content drought of Beta for Azeroth.

When will this nightmare end?Comment by PreliatusFacing for NPCs? So more directional facing technology for everyone?

On a side note, I noped out of BFA after the last wing hit LFR, got to see the Lord of the Rings: Return of the King ending and just left it there. I expected a drought worse than WoD and did the smart thing and stopped playing. Until then, lurking on wowhead reading the comment sections.Comment by Ivashkov92So, still stuck with a boring content drought of Beta for Azeroth.

When will this nightmare end?Comment by Ivashkov92I am not sure what non-player facing changes even means? What does that mean? lolComment by Ivashkov92People sure are overreacting by calling BFA bad. I got my moneys worth from it.Comment by rafahellsThe problem with BFA is simple...Legion was way better.

The way conflict was handled in BFA wasn't good ether. Feels like nothing got accomplished...
- Night elfs didn't get any revenged. So far i don't know what happened to the survivals, are they all in SW? I guess is a plot for next expansion? =/
- How about Gilneas, isn't the diminished forces of the forsaken in the north of the eastern kingdoms a good excuse to retake the lost nation? That looks like a good place to settle the remain NE and Worgen. Right? no? ok. Another plot hook.
- The forsaken faction as a whole! i mean...wtf! is clear it need it own faction. why the hell would the horde want the forsaken? Nothing spell good companionship like a rotten dead body walking around, i guess, never mind the fact that they have messed up like 2-3 times already. Even killed the current warchief son. (i guess Saurfang is the new warchief, right? I don't know what is going on in the horde)... Unclear and unresolved. more plot hooks.
- There was a mild "rebellion" in the Horde among the head of each race...but i didn't see any outcome....looks like Silvana didn't have any supporters among every single person in the horde...but still they did as commanded multiple times...(o_O')... Even "us" the player did as commanded. Anyway the point is...what was the outcome of this war again? what was the point? what was won, more land? more azerite? who won?
- Even the game mechanics that were implemented live little to meaning and conclusion...did the warfronts have any resolution? did anyone won the territories? or is gonna be a perceptual conflict? uhm.
- what about The factions azerite farm...like island expedition..didn't we farmed the azerite to build weapons to use in the war? what happened there? Did i miss the meeting when everyone agreed to use their reserves to power the azerite beam to kill N'zoth?

The list goes on and on....This expansion story wise was really bad when u look at the whole, even when the individual zones stories where nicely done.

(sry about my bad english, i hope i can convey my ideas well enough)Comment by Ivashkov92lol old content isn't an excuse to have nothing current to do.Comment by Ivashkov92The problem with BFA is simple...Legion was way better.

Comment by orca2017Nothing from nothing means nothingComment by rossblackbloodI enjoy Bfa, but I say that as an altaholic mount collecter, I level characters to farm old mounts, and play current only when there is new story xDComment by GammageddeonDo people forget that we raided Garrosh for over a year with no content?Comment by spid3rs1So, still stuck with a boring content drought of Beta for Azeroth.

When will this nightmare end?Comment by Iruxos8.3.7 the patch has less content than 6.1. But no troll this patch likely has all the systems for pre-patch packed in. I would guess.Comment by Imperious0212That's too late, ppl are already on something else until release of Shadowlands. Even if they mentioning 8.3.5 or 7, it's too late, ppl have made the choice.
