Yes it is officially confirmed that when Wrath of the Lich King is released, it will be the same scenario that happened when The Burning Crusade was released. Everyone will be replacing their epics, like <linky to funny pic about epix>.

More about that --> here.

No annoying animated GIF here!

It didn't kill WoW when they released TBC, it won't kill them now.

 

The only thing that can kill World of Warcraft is World of Warcraft 2!

"In EVE, no one gives a damn about a fair fight." - chafin

Did you really expect them to do anything else?  Their last expansion set records for sales, why would they change their formula for success?

Now, if this next expansion were to tank (it won't) then they'd have to consider changing things a bit, but for now they've rightly discerned that their target market wants to replace their epics, so they'll give them the opportunity to do so.

A topic saying that WoW will die because in the expansion you will be replacing epic items with greens?

Didn't we have one of these last week? No wait, just checked. It was posted on January 4th.

I guess that works, there has to be a 10 day grace period between similar "WoW will die because ....." topics.

Live and Learn.. Then Die and forget it all.

Man you would think some of these people would get tired of posting these types of posts.

Here is an idea.. how about bitching to game developers to pull their head out of their asses and actually be creative and make something good enough to bring down WoW. The reason so many play the game is because there is nothing else out there right now that runs as smooth, casual friendly and just plain fun.

Sure you have those bitching its boring or complaining about a grind and I guarantee those peeps rush to max and have to have all epic gear. The reason we play these games is to have fun, plenty of things to do other then running shit over and over, if you do that then your doing it by choice.

As long as your enjoying the game and having fun, then that's all that matters.

This game is alomst perfect the only thing it lacks is good pvp. T%he pvp in wow sucks horribly. I hate doing av wsg ab and eots. Theyre all so annoying. I have about 15k kills atm cause i need em for gear and stuff for arena and stuff but now if they took the pvp from dark age of camelot and combined it with wow then we would have the best game ever.

a decline in the number of subcibers is inevitable untill the lich king is released , i  ve given up after two and a half years of play simply because i dont want to play for another 12 months ( a rough guess )before the lich king is released . the servers seam busy still in europe and i m sure theres plenty of new subscibers coming along to replace ones that are leaving like me . at this point i intend to return a month before l
