Definately fake.

Both from posts on the board and what is written there bascially breaks WoW. Both in terms of the Lore and also the mechanics of the MMO itself.

How can a raise in level cap be justified? Any raise completely trivialises all the end game content as it stands. Does that mean all end game instances need to be rewritten or can players just farm Onyxia as a means to get to the higher levels.

Hero classes are not even mentioned. They are the logical step to characters at 60. If you choose to become a hero class you will undoubtedly leave behind the end game instances as they are and move onto other stuff. They would become locked out to you as a "hero" and you will embark on new content geared to levels of Heroism.

Five races compromise the Horde, the brutal orcs, the shadowy undead, the spiritual tauren, the quick-witted trolls, and the reckless blood elves. Beset by enemies on all sides, these outcasts have forged a union tey hope will ensure their mutual survival.


This is the quote for me that proves this is a hoax. Considering Blizz are hoping to convince at least 2 million people to buy this expansion, I reckon they would spell and grammar check the release notes. They might even read em, thereby finding that the only thing that "compromises" the Horde is the arses of Taurens sticking out of their hiding places.

Its so obviously fake... Demon associative Blood elves allied with a guy thats half demon allied with the Horde?? Horde hates Demons and have several generations of slavery to demons via the blood pact to prove that. It just wont work. And the Dreanei, they are also allied with Illidan alongside the Naga and the Blood elves. Wont work either.

out of curiousity, will the expansion be on a bunch of new servers???

No, most likely not :) It will still be on the usual servers, but you don't have to buy the expansion pack to keep playing on them or anything like that.

Only about 24 hours left now before Blizzard will reveal details about the exp pack on BlizzCon. More and more info has been trickling out from various magazines, and it seems likely that Blood Elves is the new race for Horde, and that there are no new classes (:(). We will soon see if that's actually true, but I for one really hope that there will be at least one new class.

so youll be able to see the new guys but not be them???

that seems a bit odd

Yup, that's most likely how it'll work. Not really very odd at all, that's how most expansion packs have worked in MMORPG history :)

Yup, that's in line with the other translated articles I've read - yet another mention of Blood Elves as the new Horde race and no new classes. Seems likelier and likelier that it's true.
