Patch 1.7 announcement

[Welterschaft 0]

Hello!

Since BWL released one month earlier than expected due to official timeline, ZG and patch 1.7 should also be released one month earlier, which means by the end of september.

It is the middle of september atm but still there are no official announcements about ZG.

Any ideas?

They have a lot on their plate with Naxx and releasing new content will increase the population temporarily and thus increase the lag. They should delay ZG until they can upgrade the servers.

content delay is never a bad thing if you ask me.

Great reasoning.

If the delay is minor, I'm all for it.

What's everyone's rush to finish Vanilla content? Maybe I'm far too casual for most, but I really want to have the Vanilla experience to last.

Once everyone's finished with the content, what are you going to do?

zg means more shit to do (3days lockout). in addition to that we get 16debuffslots, which is also way more fun.

I feel like there were some other contributing factors that lead to the moved up BWL timeline. If you'll recall there was a ton of hype surrounding the launch of new BC Gummy's server. A lot of people felt that Elysium would loose thousands of players and it seemed almost reactionary that the BWL patch was moved up in an attempt to keep players around by adding more content. 

I'm all for getting back to the original time line. Clearly there are no population concerns for Elysium right now (almost always 6k+ on).

Since everything got moved 1 month foreward the origial timeline should be this month.

Anyways it would be really aprechiated to get an announcement about the palnning for future releases.

The community is thirsty for new raid content :-)

getting zg earlier makes no sense. 

the lags in Raids at weekendtimes (yesterday almost 11k players online at 6pm servertime) concerns alot of trouble ( we waited 3 times about 3-7 minutes before we encountered some bwl bosses cause of the lagspikes ) 

same for BG´s sometimes , that isnt fun at all . so why release more content before they change the servers ? 

and who really cares about ZG? 

you can finish zg in less then 40 minutes with 10-15 people , its more like ubrs.

sure more debuffslots makes shadowpriest more viable in raids and warlocks can use now some more dots. 
and lotus isnt bop anymore , and some new enchants/items/potions

but, the server is full, doing the same like bwl patch ( cause of gummicraft) makes no sense)
 

let the timeline like it is.

Another month of BWL. On retail ZG comes out after 2 months of BWL.

on retail ZG came out 12 years ago ;) 
And now its 5 man dungeon.
and on this server BWL came out 1 month before it should be. so they correct the timeline to its should be state . which is fine.
