Blizzard Updating WoW to 2.4 Patch….Slowly…

Posted on Feb 13, 2008 09:20:29 PM

It has been announced that Blizzard is updating the class changes progressively in World of Warcraft. Is this good or bad? Well, it’s a little bit of both in my humble opinion. What’s good about it is that they are trying to see how the changes in the last patch work out because they were such drastic changes. And by “they” I mean the developers of course. So what’s bad about it? Well the bad thing is that they are doing things a little slower than most people were hoping. The drastic changes in the last patch certainly didn’t make everyone happy. Those who are unhappy with the changes want things fixed, altered, etc.  However, from a programmers point of view I can certainly say that they are making a very good strategic move. There is no need for continually updating any game without seeing how the last update affected the gameplay. That’s just a bad decision for the developer to make. First off, people get tired of updating all the time. Secondly, you may look past a change that was really awesome and patch it up before giving it a chance to be realized by the gamers. So my advice is to be patient with Blizzard and let them do their job. I think they have been at it long enough to know what they are doing. If you don’t agree…then good luck trying to make them move at any other pace. Oh and by the way…it won’t happen. :P
