ITT scrub casters and hunters that want to so behind los and throw dmg at you while you can't see/reach them. If you are think there should be no los at the stumps you should go back to retail wow/COD

Hi everyone!

If someone can find a blue post confirming that it was never intended to be that way, we'll look into it and possibly change it.

For the time being, it's not going to change.

Thanks for answering this.

Let me ask though why you need a blue post to tell you that huge trees make more sense to provide los.
Warsong and Vanilla world were designed and implemented in 2004 with the ideas and limitations of that time. Later areas and battlegrounds had los everywhere. Through the years lots of things once appearing in blue posts have changed.

Having the chance in 2015 private server to provide a more reasonable improvement to the gameplay as asked by many pvp people here and denying it because it is not "blizzlike" makes no sense to me.

It is up to you anyway and again thanks for at least making clear your view on this.

there is no clear post from blizzard aka "yeah tree los is bug and was not as intended" cause blizzard did not give a shit about battlegrounds mechanic unless it interferes with new content

hovever,its possible to find their messages acknowledging that pre-cata bgs are out of date in terms of LoS, as result they revied and remade los system in next new battlegrounds twin and gilnes

Put a lot of effort in finding the original bluepost, because of the change of the old page i'm not able to actually get the original bluetrackerpost.

But here is just one of many quote's where blizzard actually said that the old bg's got issue's.

Quote

"Moving on to battlegrounds I don't believe we've ever stated that we have fewer maps to keep queue times short, that's not an issue. The issue is the amount of time it takes to create a battleground, and balancing that work time with other areas of the game. Battlegrounds are very labor intensive, Warsong Gulch which is probably the smallest of the battleground maps still has some terrain issues here and there. Playtesting, balancing, making edits, all require a very large amount of resources to ensure a successful battleground.

Now, that's not to say we aren't willing to put in the time, only that we have an entire game to put resources into, and those resources have to be delegated appropriately. The entire team is now working full force on Wrath of the Lich King, and the new battleground it also includes. Hopefully there will be some time to get additional battleground maps into the mix even after it ships. Personally though I think I'm most excited about Lake Wintergrasp just to see how it turns out
"

Said in the original post of Blizzard in May 2007

"terrain issues"

________________________________________________________________________________________

Blizzard never really said it's up to the LoS at midfield but you know, Blizzard throw the game anyway, so nvm about Blizzard. You actually should pay more attention what your community wants.


I could list 100 more posts about Blizzard saying something about any LoS situation in WoW, but is it really needed?


At least check this. http://us.battle.net/wow/en/search?q=Li ... ght&f=post
7.362 posts, not ppl, just posts about LoS need changes on the original WoW servers. Still nothing happened there.

In my opinion we should put more effort in taking our community srs, Blizzlike isn't equal to "best possible" we need a few changes. Blizzard did well back then, but now no LoS is not an option to me.

Indeed, stop sticking with blizzlike, and do what the community wants, but most importantly, do what YOU GMs believe is right! This must be implemented, shooting through trees is stupid and imbalanced

...and this thread can now be closed...for the time being.
You asked for a staff response...you got it.
Still not happy?
Well, you know...deal with it...or QQ some more.

I would really love some hate-posts from Tam and Calippo.

"told ya" what? Nothing is decided yet. All I can see is you being buttmad for possibly not being able to shoot though trees anymore
There are still things that need to be discussed here for the good of this server, and you are not helping at all

So I'm gently asking not to close this topic yet

Well again, you can't say anthing constructive and all you are able to do is trolling around. But i guess you get nervous now since they already payed attention to this. I'll prolly search for a real bluepost tomorrow and list a few more quote's of blizzard.



ah and btw
