Lake Wintergrasp is a great example of this. Only accessible past level 77 when players are able to learn Cold-Weather Flight and mount their respective winged beasts , it's high-level PvP chaos that rewards good teamwork. Either the Horde or the Alliance takes control of Wintergrasp Fortress, where they must destroy the enemy's siege engines and workshops before they can blow the fortress to smithereens.
Unlike your average battleground, Wintergrasp rewards coordination and smaller groups protecting siege weapons, weakening walls, or baiting groups of players into the path of one of the long-range siege weapons' guns.
It's important to realise that you can't really win Wintergrasp reliably without playing as a team - have-a-go heroes on their lonesome find themselves torn to shreds, even at No matter how many hours you've denied your spouse or your worklife, you're not going to win in a fistfight with a Demolisher. This is a refreshing take on PvP, but disappointingly closed-off for the average player.
Many will reasonably assume that this is a counterpoint to the PvP-centric Warhammer Online, only to find that out of the box they're not going to be able to travel there - especially if they don't even have a flying mount to begin with. What could have been a drop-in, drop-out PvP war zone is now a fun little club for the elite to hang out at - which is, now especially, not what it should be in the face of what Mythic has to offer.
Wintergrasp isn't the only bizarre geographical choice that Blizzard made with Northrend. Before release, it was stated many times that the continent wouldn't be made up predominantly of icy caverns and different kinds of yeti. While this is certainly the case, much of the continent feels put together seemingly at random. Lush plains roll into barren wastelands, that in turn roll into Scourge-infested terrain, that then subsequently rolls back into icy expanses. The Borean Tundra and Howling Fjord are the worst examples, and feel rather like eight or nine zones stuck together with varying degrees of success, but much of Northrend lacks coherent artistic direction.
Once you leave tfie loving arms of the Tundra and the Fjord which takes far too long, in comparison to the transition between Zangarmarsh and Hellfire in The Burning Crusade , progression becomes a little more interesting, but it lacks a vigorous, adventure-like buzz.
It's more of a stroll through a series of well thought-out ideas that aren't held together as well as they should be. Zones in and of themselves are always dramatic, and at times stunning, particularly Icecrown and Zul'Drak.
A great deal of effort has been made to make zones feel bigger than anything Blizzard has created before, as is evident from the vertigo'you'll get on flying towards the flying city of Dalaran see 'Swoop, magic, swoop'. Character models are still cartoony and lacking in detail compared to Age Of Conan and Warhammer Online , but environments are still ahead of the competition. This makes scoring this expansion rather painful. There is so much love for the lands, the lore, and the characters in the Warcraft universe, and so many fantastic ideas that exist to go into the Northrend Saga.
Somehow, Blizzard managed to take potentially the least interesting idea in history - an entire continent made of ice - and lace it with fascinating ideas, quests, and areas to explore.
The problem is that these ideas aren't held together very well, and players have to push through more ho-hum content than we've yet seen from a Blizzard product I hasten to add that it isn't bad content, but we're now four long years into WOW. If you're on that boat, and want to continue playing a game that is enjoyable and addictive yet ultimately, doing the same bloody thing it did on its release, then be my guest You will love Wrath of the Lich King, because it does exactly what many want it to - it elongates a successful game model in a pleasing, easy-to-consume package, much like each year's new FIFA and Football Manager games.
The instanced content is excellent, the Death Knight is a well-balanced war machine that looks good in black, and the storyline - once you hunt it down and wring it out of Northrend - is crafted well enough to sate even the most die-hard lore nut. But by any standard, this far into the development of an MMO, and with two years since your last expansion, the envelope should be pushed a little.
Blizzard could've shaken up the genre here. Wrath of the Lich King has had two years to innovate, build and refresh WOW, but all it seems to have done is prolong the same experience that people have been waiting to continue for years. Men with loudhailers on street corners, excitable nuns The expansion lets would-be grinders level all the way up to 80, as well as introducing achievements, graphics upgrades and a new hero class: the Death Knight.
Through Warcraft 3 and expansion The Frozen Throne, he picked up the dread sword Frostmorne, travelled to Northrend and became an all-powerful undead monster - getting some free spookily glowing eyes and power over the undead. Wrath of the Lich King takes place some years after his undeadification, with both Horde and Alliance players intent on doing their best to take down Arthas and putting the kibosh on the dratted Scourge once and for all.
All very dramatic, I'm sure you'll agree, and what's more, it's a neat segue through to the hero class that serves as an introduction to the war on Northrend. The Death Knight is available for creation on reaching Level 55, running as a character that acts in parallel with your own.
So, technically, if you haven't played through Burning Crusade yet, you could happily create a Death Knight and run him through Outland and then onto Northrend. In fact, everyone has to. You have three pairs of runes unholy, blood and frost , and each of your spells uses a combination of them.
You also have a runic power gauge that fills depending on what you cast and kill, allowing you to unleash abilities such as Death Coil; a spell that either does direct damage or heals an ally depending on who it's cast on. You're immediately greeted by none other than the Lich King, who recruits you into his evil forces and demands that you eliminate the inhabitants of the nearby Scarlet Crusade villages.
These first steps as a Death Knight are gruesome: you're part of the Scourge army and thus have to murder, poison and obliterate innocent people for your master, while spitting at the mortals that cross your path.
I won't spoil the eventual conclusion of the quests, but I can say that they take a few hours to complete, and that they're utterly brilliant.
