I have to ask, just because it came to my mind...   For the Panda druids mainly, what do they look like in "Bear" form?

Pandaren can't be druids. If they could be though, I would imagine they'd just be regular pandas with a mane and a more ferocious look...much like all the other bears. I mean just imagine the Nelf bear form with round ears and panda colors.

It would be like some sort of oxymoron if Panda's could be feral druids with a "bear form".   Would definitely be hilarious, not as much as a nelf panda bear form but y'know lol

As far as the WHOLE mists of Pandera goes .. all I can see is a lack of conflict, a tired attempt at a new race and no more wow but welcome to Pokemon online .... I did not sign up for this childish crud

well ,cant say its a tired attemp at a race, pandaren has always been one of the races people wanted. I'm very surprised wow copy pasted Pokemon to the tooth, and i hope they get hurt in the wallet by Nintendo, a stolen idea is stolen.

I've always been under the impression that World of Warcraft has been a game that is too simplistic and touches too few heavy themes too lightly to be considered truly mature. Therefore, adding a race that has connections to "cuteness" through previous media, is not something that makes me feel like vomiting. 
 
 
If someone would ask me for mature form of entertainment I could safely recommend them to watch the Boardwalk Empire or read Tranströmer, I would, however, not recommend them to play World of Warcraft.

Pandarens = Good addition

Pandarens only expansion = why? why? why?

Death Knights were added for both the Alliance and the Horde because they're a hero class. Pandarens are not really heroes of either factions but a neutral race meant as an "easter egg" champion in the Warcraft Universe.

Ogres and Nagas IMHO should've been added first. The whole Pandaria should've been added as a portion of a bigger expansion. Players should not be able to just click on their portrait in character creation screen and start playing as Pandaren monks in the first day of going live.There should be an epic quest involved to activate Pandarens as a playable race that is not given by Mr.ObviousNPC sitting in front of you the moment you enter the game. Pandarens starts as monks and later "learn" other class proficiencies through epic quests. For example, warrior epic quests should be added if a player wants to be a Pandaren warrior etc etc...

Current playable faction races should also be given epic quests to learn how to be Monks. Keep the old talent trees for old classes and the new tree for Monks only.

Did Blizzard learn anything from the Death Knight's addition at all?

players now a days want instant gratification, so questing for a new playable race is pushing it. Its a wait and see expansion, since it is WOW it will do massively well. We dont know all of the WOW plans, they may add those races in the next expac, we just dont know.

[Mod Edit]

   A copy of pokemon?     How the hell do you figure, because for once you can do something fun with your near useless vaniety pets.    Y'know cause collecting 100 or so and are completely unable to use them was always awesome.

It's pretty damn awesome to now be able to sit in org or w/e and have my vaniety pet go and randomly attack some other dudes for the hell of it.   It's a great way to pass the time.

Panda people in game suck except to mass slaughter. You want Panda people go play EQ2 they had them 2 years ago already. Wow used to be interesting, now its just dumbing down to the lowest point possible. ie someone that can figure out how to turn on a computer andl use a mouse or joystick.

Unfortunately 80% of the people out there that use a computer still hardly know how to properly turn it on or off...   Yes it's a very small amount of people who actually know how to use one, it's quite amazing.   Yes that is coming from a guy who gives out IT support on a daily basis, it's quite sickening with how dumb people are these days.

Isn't that an oxymoron? You are working with IT support, yet you are complaining about people being dumb? I've always been under the impression that the brightest do not work with IT support, but work with actual programming or in a leading role? Correct me if I am wrong.

 

Ever considered that their utter lack of interest for computers makes them have a different basis upon which they draw their conclusions? Given the basis they currently have, the conclusions they draw may actually be reasonable ones.  If that's the case, it isn't a matter of stupidity, but a matter of lack of knowledge. Stupidity is connected with making erronous or far less than optimal decisions given a certain set of information; if they lack substantial information to begin with, it may not be a matter of stupidity at all.

I dislike evrything that feels kiddy or targeted for a younger audiance.

Props if you like panda's and pokemon, but i cannot be moved to like it in any way, not even with the new monk class.

 

No idea why they dint make Emerald Dream xpac after defeating Deathwing......

It would have been alot more logical then panda's popping out of the sky -_-

 

 

Bad judgement of Failcrawler if you ask me, he might pay a very high price for his decisions in 2012.

Well programmers and IT professionals are two completely different things.   I've been commited to this field of work since I was little, it's been a hobby and a passion of mine my entire life.  It's just a bonus that now I'm getting paid to do it while enhancing my skill, I get the best of both worlds.

Seems this expansion will be worst, at least I'll sure never buy it before long months of looking how it goes (thanks spent enough on Cata revamp).

I feel like I'm over aged for WoW as it looks like 5+ with pandas, can be wrong too, but anyhow, will not buy it & I guess soon WoW will turn f2p, they took this direction, as many other failed games.

New "adult" games like SW:TOR and GW 2 looks more fun to me and anyhow would add something better to my game playing as patch-worked WoW.

I don't hate WoW at all, more like I still love it, so it sad not to find any appeal for it anymore

Laly with love

Well, I'm not Chinese, nor am I a twelve-year old girl so pandas are worthless in all aspects, not enough to drive me away from the game on their own, though. (Took the talent tree rape for that.)

 

I dislike Kunfu or other such nonsense as well but yet again, it's pretty irrelevant.
