I knew it was easy, but I wasn't quite expecting that. "Hey guys, I wrote a config file to go along with a shader package, enjoy HDR!"That isn't at all HDR though. It's just a bloom filter in overdrive.

On second inspection, you're right. Bloom and Blur is there, but the dynamic colour palette isn't.

At least WUA trolls with some kind of skill. Do you even play the game and if not, good for you and if you do then maybe you should find something you actually enjoy doing. It begs the question why you still post here saying you hate everything, you don't seem me going onto farmville message boards telling people there what a piece of shit it is do you?
I'm not trying to defend wow as the pinnacle of gaming, I would just like for people to stop douching up threads needlessly.
Did someone spill his juice box today? Relax. There's no wonder with this game anymore.
WOW, WHAT A DOUCHE!

A lot of really spoilery shit is now going up at mmo-champion.com. Too much to really list individual stuff here.

Two profession-related things that look to impact my main (Priest) the most:
Six new goddamned cloth transmutes, every fucking one of them on a week-long cooldown. That alone makes me want to strangle kittens.
Also what looks to be a shift away from "always on" weapon enchants to a more proc-based system. I'm not sure how I feel about that one.

It appears they all transmute into the same thing, though.

The most important thing is that the goblins are building a Pleasure Palace in Azshara.

I really hope the new picture MMO champ identifies as the new Kobold model isn't accurate or gets changed.
Not a big fan of changing the graphics style from campy to SRS BSNS

More pics up at mmo-champion.
The North Barrens stuff all looks identical; the only change I noticed was the Northwatch Hold has some Alliance banners. Maybe a new Ally outpost?
I guess Camp T is fucked. I hope "Battlescar" is some kind of world PVP area.

I don't think the new Kobolds are SRS BSNS but at the same time as liking the models, I really don't want to see them replacing the loveable little buggers around Elwynn and Loch Modan. They just have so much personality, grumpy little rat men with a particular attachment to wax lighting systems. The new ones don't even have candles!

I wouldn't be surprised if there is some story reason behind the different look of the kobolds.
But, yeah, I'm not sure how you get SRS BSNS out of Lemy The Biker Kobold. I can understand not LIKING them (I personally do), but I can't get how they aren't still campy, just a different flavor of camp.

I think we are also probably making an awfully big assumption based on filenames and the like that they're actually going to be kobolds.
If I had to guess I'd say those little guys, whatever they are, are going to be running around in Deepholme and the like, and won't be replacing the overworld kobolds at all.
EDIT: And they frankly look more like they're related to troggs than kobolds.

Your king killed Deathwing's daughter and stuck her head on a pike? What could possibly go wrong!  Wait, are those...claw marks on those towers?  Oh dear.

The Goblins turned azshara into a giant horde symbol as thanks for joining. Horde, fuck yeah!  From the forums: I am Gallywix. And I have a question for you: Is a man not intitled to the sweat of his brow? NO, say the Nobles of Stormwind, it belongs to the King. NO, says the Warchief, it belongs to the Horde. NO, say Trade Princes of Kezan, it belongs to us. I... rejected those answeres. Instead, I choose something different. I choose the IMPOSSIBLE. I CHOOSE... AZSHARA! A city where the engineers would not fear the censor. Where the alchemists would not be bound by petty morality. Where the great would not be constrained by the small. And with the sweat of your brow, Azshara can become your city as well.

I'm glad someone nipped that in the bud before Blizzard had the idea to parody it themselves.

It certainly does seem like the Horde is conquering far more territory than the Alliance is managing to claim in Cata.

About time the Horde got something. Alliance has all the easy to defend towns and easier questing routes early on. Horde gets... Crossroads and The Barrens.

The NE's don't even get to keep their crappy park district in SW!  They totally blew up the park so they didn't have to figure out how to model it properly for flight. It was in a really awkward place relative to the docks and stuff.

Looking at those screenshots almost makes me want to come back for this. Any word on whether or not the expansion will be just a continuation of the "sit in town waiting in queue" model?

As opposed to?
It'll be like every other expansion, the first few months will be awesome, new and fun.
Then it won't be once all the newness wears off.

There is great potential for a longer "newness" feel in this one at least. For me anyway, what with being an alt leveling crazy person.
