There is ALOT people would like to see.... i personally think instead of adding a new continent, just add some new areas, but space them apart, raise lvl cap to 90, and make ALOT of subtle changes to gameplay like when your charactor is drunk.... shouldnt that have some effect? i think i should. Make the same have more realistic qualities to it. When you target an enemy and type "/spit" and the emote says you spit on the enemy, the aggro should go up at least a little, it would make the game more realistic, just like having fields of advantage, like if an Orc is in Outland haveing increased health is not too much to ask as a home field advantage.
Obviously, some of these things are kind of.... stupid, Piracy as a profession.... idk bout that.... However Scholarism, being able to learn how to understand, NOT type in their language, but to understand what is typed to you from "Common" to "Darnassian" or even, "Trollish" to "Gnomish"!
Even charactor personalizers would be cool.... such as when creating a charactor, be able to change eye color, muscle build, weight...
for example
a charactor that is.... high in weight and low in muscle build might have increased strength, but -5% run speed and mounted and swim speed.
a charactor that is low in weight, and high in muscle build may have increased strength, less stamina, but normal run speed.
This could even help RPing in the game.
One thing talked about alot was Charactor posture and height, no special traits, just the fact of thats how it looks, make it subtle change to it, but none the less...
... it IS those small, yet extremely in depth things that can make a great game even better!
NOW:
WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE IN THE NEXT WoW PATCH OR EXPANSION PACK????
