WoW: Summary of Game Director Tom Chilton Interview

•One of the most significant changes to WoW in recent years has been the opening up of different content types to more players.
•Grommash is now a character who is uniting the orc clans and taking on a quest to conquer the world
•Raiding in Warlords will be more than just orcs - the first raid zone is ogres.
•Tom thinks WoW will make it to 20 years - as long as there are players asking for more content there will be more content made.
•The next expansion is already in progress
•The expansion following that (8.0) is a choice between a couple of options, they have six or seven different ideas for future ones that could be used in part. There's at least 10 years more content.
•Response to the beta has been satisfactory - as the builds become more complete players can see the developers' vision better.
•Warlords is certainly trying to bring back lapsed players and make things easier for new players
•WoW's demographic has become a lot older, and therefore more casual, so the game has to adapt
•Tom's personal highlight would probably be the original development of the talent system

WoW Suffers DDoS Attack, Bomb Threat Issued to SOE

A collection of ne'er–do–wellers that go by the name of Lizard Squad inflicted significant denial of service attacks to large online gaming networks over the weekend. These attacks brought to a halt World of Warcraft and the entire Battle.net system, PSN, League of Legends, and Path of Exile. Service to all networks has so far been restored.



The group also took things to a new level by issuing a bomb threat to Sony Online Entertainment's President John Smedley flight to San Diego. This, of course, triggers an FBI response and brings things to a whole new level of national security -- Sony is now not commenting any more due to the high level of the crime. Several people have said that claiming "national security" is an overreaction, however if this group really did manage to get an explosive device on to the executive's plane, then it means there are major holes in airport security.

It's likely that this group of script kiddies just didn't realize how incredibly dumb it is to make such a threat, and will soon find themselves facing terrorism charges, with the DDoS charges just an after thought.

One thing to keep in mind; your data in Blizzard's servers was never in any jeopardy. A DDoS attack is like turning on a thousand faucets in your bathtub all at once and watching the tub's drain not be able to handle the extra water flow. The tub is fine (as is your data), it's just completely useless until the faucets get turned off. If you want to buy WoW items, don't hesitate to click here to find the best site!

Warcraft Wallpaper and Art Updates

Blizzard has just updated its costume and fan art galleries with a handful of new photos from various artists. The costumes are pretty clever, but my personal favorites have to be a really clever training dummy costume, and a checkered box that should be very familiar to anyone who has played on any of the beta servers over the years.



In addition to the costume and fan art galleries, there is a new community comic available in the comic gallery, as well as a new wallpaper featuring the Jade Forest rare, Martar the Not-So-Smart. And if that weren't enough, several new images of Mists of Pandaria concept art have also been added to the Blizzard art gallery.

Warlords of Draenor: Robin Williams NPC Appears

As we all know that Robin Williams was a World of Warcraft player and his daughter's namesake is no secret -- Zelda Williams is named for none other than Princess Zelda. Shortly after his death, Blizzard developers Chadd "Celestalon" Nervigg and Ion "Watcher" Hazzikostas responded to a player petition to honor the actor and comedian in-game. The latest Warlords of Draenor beta build includes Blizzard's tribute in the form of Robin the Entertainer.



Currently, Wowhead has datamined three versions of Robin the Entertainer including a djinn, a human female, and a human male -- nods to Genie of Aladdin, Mrs. Doubtfire, and possibly Mork. The NPCs have yet to be seen in-game, so the nature of these NPCs is currently unknown; they might be found in three different locations, or it could be a single representation of Robin Williams rotating through some of his most beloved roles. It's been theorized that he'll be a replacement for The Burning Crusade's Perry Gatner, a character that performed standup comedy in Shattrath's World's End Tavern.
Here, it is quite easy for you to find cheap WoW Gold.
