 ome of you may remember rumors of the World of Warcraft expansion pack which Blizzard refused to comment on. Here we are again months later with information leaks that are making people extremely anxious, and desperately wanting to get the full details.
Anyways, the name of the WoW Expansion pack is The Burning Crusade, and I'm just gonna list what the main things we've heard and what are the most likely, and then other not so credible items. The information is as follows:
Alliance and Horde will each get one new race, we don't know what those will be yet, but make sure to buy a copy of Computer Gaming World in about 2 weeks because the new Horde race will be on the cover. Blizzard appears intent on keeping a tight lip on the new alliance race. Also, the new level cap will be raised to 70! This means they will have to implement at least one major new raid instance since when people will begin to cap out, Blacking Lair, Molten Core etc, will be child's play.
I wouldn't be surprised if there were 20 man groups clearing out Blackwing Lair, or 5-10 man pugs farming world bosses such as the Four Dragons, Kazzak or Azuregos. So, where do we go 60+? Given the recent revamp of Silithus and the extension of the Emerald Dream Quest, Ahn'Quiraj and the Emerald Dream would be obvious suspects. However, anyone who's ever used wow mapView could see that those zones (at least in the files that are distributed with the latest wow client) aren't looking very polished. But that doesn't really mean too much anyway, as Blizzard can simply choose what they want to be included with the map data files.
If I were to guess what zones/instances are on the near horizon, I would say the Tower of Medivh in Deadwind Pass, Mt. Hyjal and then Ahn'Quiraj. We'll be sure to post anything new as it comes in. If you know more information about the expansion pack, feel free to contact us here.
