Looks like Cross Server LFG will make it for 3.3.

As mentioned at blizzcon there will be rewards of "completing" a PUG dungeon which is gold and emblems.. but for just the first dungeon.

Looks like you can make a part group and put your group in the system for a random PUG to join but you dont get to vet the players who join, with is both good and bad IMHO.

You can also select ANY dungeon to queue for unliek the current LFG system that only list dungeons in your level range.

That's not bad at all.

All they need now is a tutoring system (so you can play with your lower level friends) and it'll be perfect.

Looks really cool although i don't really have time to play wow much atm its still intresting to see what they are going to do next lets see if they manage to do it!.

Where Blizzard leads other MMO producers follow!

Knock WoW anywhich way you like but they are pushing the boundaries of MMOs what!

This will help a lot for low level chars that are still running classic wow dungeons as getting groups for these dungeons are hard since so few people on one server are at that level.

DDO LFG system has been amazing since day one. Come out of your shell

Actually I don't.

I found the implementation of the system and the interface for it great. All is now missing to cover the competition completely is a way to adjust your level to that of your friends so you can play (and have a challenge) a lower level dungeon.

You dont understand what this new LFG system does.

You're missing the point a little. It's not about 'I want to do X random dungeon!' it's about 'I've got a bunch of my friends, I'm level 70, they're all some level below me. Can't we all find something we can do together as a group and get some small reward for it?'

I.E., the sidekicking/exemplaring system from City of Heroes.

Not needed, because you'll search through 20 servers (number I read) while leveling.

If you do the count you have a potential of around 1000-2000 players into the same 5 level bracket of say 30-35.

The tric is to lure the players using the LFG tool by giving rewards (and the usual dungeon quests of course).

Rewards always do the tric in WOW.

Oh thank God Zorn,
 

For a second I thought I'd have to play with my friends - i'm so glad it's not needed.

Never had friends move to a different server, or find out that friends already rolled somewhere else, and don't want to pay $35 a character for a transfer, or whatever Blizzard charges, or start over?

This is better for those with "friends", not worse. Better way to make them, too, because with the Battle.net implementation, you'll soon be able to chat and likely purposely form groups from other servers.

I don't play WoW any longer but that's a very good idea.

I hope now people understand why WoW has 10 million players, Blizzard is always one step ahead.

And no, I am not going back to WoW, even if I like that idea.

its going to be heaven for all the ninjas out there! You will have an unlimited amount of targets for it : )

ROFL at you indeed...

In fact it shows you don't understand anything about videogaming.

You see that's the problem with grouping. Because even your BEST friend and very best girlfriend doesn't ALWAYS have the time to group with you.

People don't play the NPC act for YOUR pleasure, not even the best friends.

Oh you can STILL play with them in your NEW guild leveling system in CATA and your guild advances.

But GROUP play for YOU as a player needs to be ...  24/7. No attachements needed for playing 24/7.

See, that's not too difficult to grasp. :)))

You soooooo missed the point.

Thanks for seeing the point.

Good god.  Another way to get players to mindlessly grind?  It's unbelievable to me how many WOW players don't know how badly their being manipulated out of their subscription $$ every month.  LOL!

 Whats Amblums? WHat they do my friend?

They can't help that their game is flawed at the core, but at least they're trying to make what sucks a little more bearable.

I'm glad they're doing this, really. It's a simple, obvious approach to a problem that's existed as a tradition in MMORPGs for a very long time.

So you're saying that no one but little ol' wonderful YOU has a mind of their own and possibly plays a game because they simply  ENJOY it?

Arrogant much?  lol

The number of anti-WoW arrogant elitists on these forums is pathetic.  Why ANY of you think you have a right to choose what game someone ELSE likes, pays for, and plays....is beyond me.  Why don't you just go play your CS Source (or w/e it is that shows off your massive epeen) and let everyone ELSE....play whatever THEY  choose to spend THEIR OWN MONEY on to play?

Until you     <insert random name of game YOU don't play here>     HATERS....start paying everyone else's subscription fees.....you really have no right to say jack squat about anyone else's personal choice.
