Hopefully. Considering one of the zones was empty untill a few days ago. I'm not holding much hope for level 66 onwards.

http://beta.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.htm...=2&sid=1#25

We are in the process of tuning the leveling curve for the expansion. The Beta is the absolute best time for us to tune this curve. We made changes this week and we're watching things closely. Don't be surprised to see more changes over the course of the Beta. Those who participated in the original WoW Beta will remember the curve changing many times before release.

The most recent changes included:

--Lengthening the curve a bit

--Placing more emphasis on Quest Reward Experience

--Placing more emphasis on Dungeon Experience

--Placing less emphasis on grinding outdoor creatures while not on a quest (sorry to Cartman and the South Park kids killing their 1,232,232 fel boars)

Something that's *very* important to note:

Three entire zones are not open in the Beta -- Blade's Edge Mountains, Netherstorm and Shadowmoon Valley. These will be full of quests. The lack of these zones is undoubtedly going to skew feedback until we open them.

Ultimate Goal:

An experience curve that does not require "grinding" outdoor mobs. So long as you are always questing through your leveling experience, we've achieved our goal. If you ever need to "stop" and kill creatures to open up quests, then we have more tuning to do. We will not require people to go into the Dungeons. HOWEVER, dungeon exp will be very rewarding for those who choose to attempt the added challenge.

Must be nice to be spoilt. 16 and you owned a car and felt the need to vandalise other peeps property.

Never said I owned a car. Was my dad's let me drive to work and school, as long as I paid for insurance, gas, repairs and took care of it. I paid for the engine that I replaced, I paid for all the other parts to be repaired, continue to paid insurance, and to this date I still don't own a vechile that's mine. And I didn't feel the need to vandlise someone elses property, was drunk. None of what I said should have happeneded and I shouldn't have done it, but when if you lived in the area I did, you would quickly realize there wasn't anything else to do. And the truck in question was a piece of ****, beat down truck so I didn't give a crap about it, it only became good when I replaced the engine and fixed up random other parts.

On-topic, there's a blue post on the WoW forums that confirms the release date is solid and will not be pushed back.

Fair doos mate but I come fae Glasgow knife crime capital of the world, and its that attitude of "nothing better" to do thats led to kids out stabbing folk to death!!

Also soz if I seemed an ass but I live in amongst folk who dont realise just how good theyve got it, but insist upon killing each other over boredom.

Remember theres always an alternative.

Small notice. If you currently make a mod/addon for WoW. I think wowinterface.com is giving away keys to folk who keep them updated! Would be worth uploading them to there if you don't normaly.

Pallys get screwed again. Their tier 2 armor is sweet but the t3 and t4 and t5 all look terrible.

Blizzard just hates pallys I think.

Stop your bloody crying! Why is every player an angsty teen who things every man and their dog hates them? /rant

The armour is a place holder (check the beta forums).

      Thanks, Sony and Nintendo, you effectively killed platform-agnostic gaming. Long gone are the days when you could wish to play a specific game on whatever platform you were. Now, you have to buy the hardware just to play that single game. What, you're only interested in THAT game and nothing more? Bad luck, suck it and buy our console.

    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.

      This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
