for me, all the new Battleground would be a nice addition under the old Honor system. 

also the wardrobe system would be nice.

Cant forget the new classes, would also be nice change.

    This : 



    Premade groups. Spamming chat every 10-20 seconds to look for that tank or healer or even "+1 DPS go go go" is .. not cool.

    Shouldn't classic WoW be the game we played in nov 2004? Anything else isn't classic WoW.

    There's an addon that is replacing that feature for vanilla, it's pretty big in debate right now on whether or not it's ruining the classic experience. I think that there are pretty good arguments for and against it. I did hate spamming chat trying to find groups, but it definitely did require you to reach out to people to join groups, and usually involved talking to the leader prior to just joining up. Having even a premade group section could potentially kill most interaction regarding that and that goes towards the non social game we have today.

    Yep, classic wow isn't the game we played in Nov 2004. It's patch 1.12 which was released on Aug 22 2006.
    this is true, all the nerfs they made from 1.0 to 1.12 is kind of lame but blizzard has to have some kind of dick move to pull in everything they do, personally id like to see the graphics implemented as well as the improved attack ranges, one thing that gets me mad is the stance icons and abilities icons over the warriors head =(, id be ok with this if it was even throughout the board, but having in your face tells of what a warrior is doing is bogus considering there are about 100 abilities that dont have much for graphics so they can be choreographed as well

    I think add-ons can deal with most of these things.

    Keep vanilla 1.12.

    If they ever decide to change it, keep vanilla servers, and do copy character to new 1.13 realms that are being "tweaked".  Not everyone wants even small changes, such as more mail slots added.

    Why do people want non classic features in classic? the whole point is to play it how it was.

    Transmog system.
    Battle Pets
    Achievement system

    My reason for this is, all that u can achieve in these 3 categories are still limited to vanilla wow but gives me a ton of extra things to do and chase ON LEVEL, unlike in BFA if I go back to early zones it's a cakewalk to do all 3 of these and just not very fun.

    My initial response was going to be "nothing" but after reading Elocke's post i kind of miss achievements from WotLK. Just don't make them linkable on chat and figure some good use for achievement points.

    The ability to have a 2nd spec.

    Specs should still only be changeable at a class trainer though, and you should still have to pay increasing costs to respec, it would just be a QoL thing so classes like Warrior and Priest could have a Tank / Healer spec without making the rest of the game almost unplayable.

    Bigger bags. More bank space. 

    EQ1, EQ2, SWG, SWTOR, GW, GW2 CoH, CoV, FFXI, WoW, CO, War,TSW and a slew of free trials and beta tests

  • blamo2000blamo2000 Member RarePosts: 1,130
    2v2 arena
    Jewel Crafting
    Glyphs (while they did their original thing of having a tangible and sometimes significant impact on abilities - I read they were now nerfed into doing nothing other than changing animations or something).
    DKs.
    The 81 point talent trees that were in the beta for Cataclysm before they destroyed the rpgs systems and gutted the talent trees.
    The class changes from BC to make some hybrid builds more viable.


    What I definitely don't want is all the shit that added to WoW being destroyed, turned into less of an rpg, promoting the cookie-cutter fallacy, being more formulaic, or added to the elitism of baddies thinking they are good 

     - these specific items that should never be allowed back in to wow would be

    Dual Specs
    The Armory
    Achievements
    Dungeon/Raid group finder
    Transmog


    I get almost everything I want if they release BC and WotLK servers.  On the bad side I would also have to put up with the groundwork that destroyed wow that was included with those expansions like dual specs, achievements, the armory, and group finder.  But not transmog at least.

    Nope. Some do.

    Personally I consider Vanilla also TBC and the first half of WOTLK, I am not a purist.

    If they added to Classic all the WOTLK improvements I would be cool with it, minus flying of course.

    Beyond that, there is nothing I would want added to it.

    Exactly!
    If you don't have the time or desire to play the game, pay someone else to do it for you.

    this is going to be the conversation in less than 6 months. 

    WoW "Classic" Players: "Hey Blizz can we get (insert any features from retail) it would make the game better"

    Blizzard looking at everyone asking for retail features:

    only a better UI; and I'd settle for the UI TBC had

    I would take 90% of FFXi but NOT add it to Wow because i don't really like Wow's world or setup/structure/combat/class design.
    So taking what i call a lot of good ideas and putting them in a bad game doesn't accomplish much at all.

    What i would rather do is take bits and pieces from several games that i feel are good ideas and use those to make a HQ game.

    One obvious feature is housing,then i need to see some variation of the sub class design.That is just the tip of the iceberg,way more than that to make a HQ mmorpg.

    If i could mix all aspects of a mmorpg,it would likely be Atlas/FFXI/EQ2/ROM/SRO.There might be a few ideas in other games i am missing but this would be an amazing start to building a game.

    People don't want content,they don't even want HQ game design,they want dungeons/bosses and loot and pvp.There are some games that is all they offer and are big sellers so i know i am right.

    Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
