There’s currently a 144-page thread on the official World of Warcraft message board discussing this latest earth-shattering news: you’ll soon be able to take your Horde character and transform him to the closet Alliance equivalent, and vice-versa. So, for example, taking your Orc Warrior and changing him into a Human Warrior. And then cats and dogs will break bread with each other.
Why is Blizzard doing this? Well, have you ever started a character, leveled him to, I don’t know, around level 30, but then your friends showed up on your server as the other faction? It’s incredibly annoying. Naturally you’d want to play with them, o Blizzard is giving you that option.
It’s funny, too, because Blizzard used to be anti-faction change:
• Critical Mass: People may decided that any given class/race combo is superior to other combination of that same class. Or people may decide that any given race is no longer worth sticking with due to some change we make to some racial abilities. This naturally leads to flavor of the month races. This is something we want to avoid.
• Race Restrictions: All races are given a certain set of restrictions for both lore and balance purposes. There would be some serious investment involved in making certain that this system didn’t allow any exploitation of that system.
• Future Content: Things change, some would say the only thing that stays the same is change and that is certainly true for World of Warcraft. If we allowed race changes it could negatively/adversely impact things we haven’t even thought of yet.
I don’t know about you, but I’d rather holiday on Skull Island than ever roll Horde (even though I haven’t logged on in months).
For the Horde, Alliance pansy. (haven’t logged on in months either)
“They talk about Howard very infrequently and the few things they do say about him are rarely mean spirited.”
We’re up to at least 1 to 2 times a week now….
Waaahhhh….he has off until the 13th and we have to work….waahhhhhhh
Please keep radio-war comments to their respective posts. This place is a sanctuary.
You got it.
The right way would be for characters to change aliegance only, without changing type/race…wouldn’t be the first time there’s an Orc fighting on the side of light :)
Dogs and Cats living together. Mass Hysteria.
If you’re paying your money each month, Blizzard should let you do whatever you want.
@Gryphyn so, if you pay your taxes you should be allowed to do whatever you want in your country too?
in my opinion i do have to say changing factions is a great idea. i Played horde and i absolutely love it BUT!!! my guild has fallen and is no longer a raiding guild anymore. i have stopped playing for two months now because of the incidident. been thinking about joining my brothers guild and server but he plays alliance. i dont want to create a level 80 preist again after it took me so long to create my blood elf priest. i want to get back into the new content and start raiding, but more importantly i woud like to play along with my brother in the game, so if i have to change to alliance to find some kind of enjoyment again in the game, and get to play along with my bro then so be it.
I think you should be able to watch people taking a shit in the game,
Like a blood elf female taking a shit on a night elf females face and then a orc cums on them !
What?!
I know what you want, I want it to !
But there would have to be Gratz and /hugs and EPICS! and…and more grinding kk ;P.
I think we should have a more :p ,you know cocky little fucks that think pooping isnt cool and WOW is.
Anyway I think I’ve made myself clear, GRATZ !
BLIZZARD! I need a WOW masturbation addon.
Ok so I’m in a raiding guild and I spend all my free time raiding doing dungeons for rep, dailys etc.
I have a lvl 80 warlock with full epics and although I’m uber I never have time to masturbate anymore, if Blizz could add masturbation into the game it would be great !!!
No point in masurbating in real life when you can do it in WOW.
There could be a new rep grind with the no life monkies !
oh and to the poster above me GRATZ!
Man, they should make you register before posting a reply.
I’m registed on everything on the web and I’ve got my own WOW page called WhyDoRPWOWPlayersAlwaysWantToKillYou.com
And a cyberWoWsex.com page for guys who get to lvl 80 in a mmorpg to get chicks….in a mmorpg
