This reminds me way too much of the Island expeditions. I played a couple times. First round I got a ton of plunder in a very short time. Had a ok time not really knowing what I was doing. gained in renown. died. Going straight into spectator mode was very disconcerting. The next 3 rounds I was only in pve mode for like 30 seconds. 2 times I landed and was promptly killed by another player. Actually lost a level of renown. PVP really isn't my thing on the best of days. I had more fun in Island expeditions. Wish there was a pure pve mode where we can just have fun instead of all the stress. would at least appreciate a chance to catch ones footing. The controls are very unwieldy
The controls are horrible. Let us remap the keybinds at least.
I'm sad we can't make a Dracthyr. That was the race I was going to pick for this, because I was planning to make a Dracthyr Rogue in TWW (if my guess is right).
Supposedly the average game was gonna give 400-500 rep... yea not buying it. Played about 5 games, and outside of completing the "daily", the average was more like 250 gold plundered. This is awful.Then there is the fact that this game is just boring AF. You literally run around and loot rep off the ground - so you have to loot 100,000 rep to max out. And hope you get lucky and loot useful abilities for the pvp.
Still waiting foe the real 10.2.6
played it, and as a WoW player, I hate it.
game sucks....
Yeah nah, years too late, way not good enough... Killed myself and exited as soon as possible.. As a mount collector I've put up with a lot of gates in the content to get them but pass on this one..
I just don’t see this crossover between wow players and BR players? And if this is the attempt to attract new players why would anyone boot up wow to play BR? Of if you came into wow for BR you sure won’t stick for the WoW proper? And it’s fomo too. It’s not NOT fun but whatever fun you had initially is guaranteed to be sucked out by the grind. If this is the direction then I’m thinking about refunding that war within preorder. Guess limited time wow amogus is up next?
Tried it earlier, and its kinda dull and boring honestly. I never did like Battle Royal games and it just isnt a good fit for wow, honestly, seems like a waste of a priate Event.
After trying some games, I can talk of my experience and what I think of it:First of, I'm not a PvP player. I even stay as much away of this as possible, because I'm not good at fighting players, and I can be seen in my experience of this event. The moment I meet a player, I can't defeat him/her and my game end. I did manage to kill 3 players; One that wasn't doing anything, so easy kill, one I did manage to kill because I was more stuffed than him/her but I died by random AoE after, and one that I took advantage when he/she was fighting an Elite. So yeah, not the best to say that I'm good at fighting players. I even fought one at the start, which mean we were the same level and items and I lost (but I started to fight mobs and that person landed on me, so I shouldn't say it was on equal ground).Despise that... I still have fun with it! Sure, I die to any player I encounter, but its a fun experiment to do. I admit I would like to learn to be better in fighting players, but I panic too much and I have hard time reading the player's actions, especially in a game like WoW. But I have fun going down there, find things and still try to beat players.I have only 2 concerns about this event:1) Keybinding : The fact that I have hard time with the controls of this event might also be the cause of my lost. But apparently you can change them in the lobby. If its true, then good, but it would be better to be able to do it in the main menu, because you're timed in the lobby.2) Reputation : I like the idea of a quest to give reputation, so it reward players who actually play the event instead of just going there and wait to be killed (like one of my only kills). But I will have to aggree with some people in here about this fact; we dont get enough reputation from this imo. If I get killed quickly at the start, I will only get like 28 reputation. If I completed the quest and get killed early, I get like 200 or more reputation. On a limited time event with 40 ranks reputation and each ranks need 2500 reputation, its quite low. But I also understand that it wouldn't be viable to complete it very quickly, but it take a long time to get only 1 rank if you're not good at PvP like me. So I need to know something, because I can't find the answer to this : How much time exactly does this event stay active? If its at least 40 days and more, then its fine. If its lower, then not really.And there is my third and personal concern about this event:3) No dracthyr? I get that they have hover, which would give them an unfair advantage to other races and its not supposed to be a thing (race is just cosmetic in this event), but they could just have removed the possibility to do it. But I suppose they didn't wanted to mess with races that much.To conclude, even for a non-PvP like me, its actually fun to play. Its something worth to try and not that punishing if you're bad like me and you want the cosmetics in it (if you complete the quest in time, of course). But I think it would be good to get more reputation from the quest. But the games are fast, which is a good thing. But I would like to know how much time we have exactly for this event.
Be nice if instead of working on new game modes, they fixed the main game mode...
Horrible default keybinds (I know they can be changed) and my general dislike for BR games aside, I'm surprised at how much I enjoy the combat style. It feels much more dynamic than standard wow
This sucks a lot. I was playing in my element having a good time, making good progress with plunder enough to beat the daily quest for 800. I see a person, I click 2 to use an ability and what do you know, one of those "rare" instances the game just crashes to the log-in screen on me. Guess what? I lost the plunder and the quest I finished, so I can't get any daily quests for 800 today :) second match of the day, btw. Way to make me motivated after losing 1.2k total just now.
this is pure bull%^&* !@#$ this game mode
Awesome! :)
