I seem to remember blizzard saying that they were going to be releasing a new hero class with each new expansion. Wheres cataclysm's hero class? Why is noone else bitching about this? |

They never said for sure that there would be any further hero classes released. Considering the hard time they have had with balancing the Death Knight, I would actually say this is a good thing. We have enough terribly overpowered classes already. |

Back when the Death Knight was released, in pretty much every interview when asked blizzard reps had stated that the intention was to release 1 hero class per expansion.Your dumb. |

Actually, they did...and to be precise, Nethara said it. When the forums come back up from maintenence, if I still care by then, I'll search and post a link.

Yes they said a new xpac and new hero class with everyone. |

It mentions it on WoWwiki. In the 'Hero Class' section. |

Ofc they have hard time balancing DKs. Each tree is both high dps and good tank. There is just no way you can balance that. Specially when it comes to PVP - arena style. THey dug their own grave with DKs. As far as new hero class is conserned. The next one will be healer class - If there ever will be a new one. Considering the issues that WOW is coming to in terms of balancing (again - their own making) - I doubt they will try it again any time soon. |

I was just trying to help the fanboys with their excuse of why no hero class with this one. In theory its not really an xpac just a reskinning, but have it your way. Yeah they lied about hero class just like houseing. |

So I challenge you, go find a link where blizzard promises 1 hero class every expansion. Go on now, it shouldn't be hard to find should it?
Put your money where your mouth is, because your baseless bellyaching is getting real stale. |

To answer the original posters question, I don't feel the need for a new class. I enjoy the ones I play now.
I am almost smart enough to understand just how much work a new class presents to the overall balance of a game. Having a new class just for the sake of having a new class ins't a compelling reason to bitch in my opinion. If the next expansion has plenty of new content, new systems and mechanics like the last few have, I will be happy.

im pretty sure I read that basically blizz wasnt happy with the deathnight because it was a steaming pile of shit essentially and the only real reason it got played other than being new was how insanely OP it was at the time.
they have NEVER said they will make them with every xpac. before they made DKs they said they like the idea.
also, every other hero class is basically a carbon copy of the existing ones, because warcraft classes are almost carbon copies of the WC3 heroes. such as the archdruid. yeah it was just called a druid in wow. same moves, new name. what would the point of making archdruids be? I know that is one example but it goes across the board, necros/warlock etc etc Playing polished, lag free, feature complete games is carebear. Whining about a game you hate but still play is hardcore man! |

what's with the random trolls saying cataclysm is nothing but rehashed content?the old world from 1-60 zones are being redone a lot some zones being made a LOT different. And the rehashing of the old world is going to be a patch free for everyone wether or not you buy the xpack.The xpack will feature 5 new levels and new abilities, a new advancement system and a new profession open world pvp zone and battlegrounds.It will also feature completely new zones to level you to 85 as well as 2 new races and starting areas for them.It will also have more end game 5 mans and raids then the other xpacks had at release. Maybe you should read about it first before spewing nonsense.This xpack, like all wow xpacks will be larger then the average MMO xpack. The amount of new content in this xpack is going to be insane and it will keep it fresh for everyone and encourage people to re roll and therefor give a much better new player experience. Most MMOs that are 6 years old (wow will be when xpack comes out) have barren lower level populations which makes new players not want to join the game.This expansion will breath new life into the game and keep it popular for a long time to come, with new players continually joining the game.Better then just adding new continents and 10 new levels every time, making more and more of the world's content unused and widening the gap even more between the new players and the older ones. |
