WoW Patch 6.0 Tonight

WoW's 6.0 patch comes out tonight with the new character models, stat squish, and class changes. There's also the pre-expansion content, including a new version of Upper Blackrock Spire.

I'm still undecided on whether to re-subscribe or not. I do kind of want to see the new content and the new changes to healing. But I'm not super-excited about it either.

What changes are you looking forward to?

  1. I thought about it, but I'm going to remain unsubscribed. I really really don't want any new BG drama in my life.

  3. I actually re-subscribed on the weekend .. I haven't played WoW since completing all the 4.0 content a few months after Cataclysm dropped, so I had some pretty significant class changes from Pandaria to deal with. Couple of days into getting my head around them, it's all changing again. :-)

    It definitely sounds like this patch is going to make a significant reduction in the amount of bag and bank space I'm using (which is basically all of it, for every character on my account) via the toy box, tradeskill item bank, 200-stacks of materials, etc.

  4. I was originally planning to resub around this time to check out the new character models, but then I realised that the idea of giving Blizzard money purely to be able to see my characters is pretty ridiculous. I'll probably have a look at it in a few months, whenever there's a bit of a lull in my other gaming.

  5. I'm watching from the sidelines for this again (as I did with Mists). Unlike Mists though I think it's not a 'wait and see' but more a 'skip this expansion entirely' decision for me. That said I do regret missing the excitement of being there at the start with Mists - coming in late (around the launch of the first island) meant I was out of step with all my guildmates on many levels.

    If anyone is going to subscribe for Warlords it's probably worth doing it now rather than later...

  7. I'm looking forward to being able to see human males without harelips. I think that's why so many of them are bearded today. It's the only way to cover up the cleft lip.

    I'm _not_ looking forward to any changes in my own appearance. I am just how I want to be.

    I'm also looking forward to killing lots of orcs.

  8. I'm looking forward to the inventory improvements. Filling up the Toy Box will likely be my filler activity between raiding Garrosh for an heirloom weapon. Another collect them all type thing.
    Having been in the Beta, I'm looking forward to the WoD release. Garrisons are a lot of fun so far and I've barely scratched the surface with only a few months play.

  9. Toy box is interesting, but the garrison was what finally got me to resub a few months back and get around to finishing up all the stuff I wanted to do in Mists.

  10. I have approximately a billion additional bag slots due to the toy box.

    The new UBRS is almost awe-inspiring for how lame it is.
