The NDA is not lifted

Was just checking out MMO Champ, and apparently the NDA is lifted and there is already some interesting facts released.


Path of the Titans is gone
The whole Path of the Titans idea has been removed from the game. It will no longer rely on Archeology or on any kind of PvE/PvP progression and instead Blizzard will just introduce a new type of glyphs: Medium Glyphs.

Medium Glyphs will add a "fun factor" to abilities, and it wouldn't be surprising to see something similar to the Fortification or Breakthrough glyphs first previewed during the Blizzcon. (But probably not these exact glyphs, a lot of stuff happened since last year)

Guild Talents are gone
The guild talents are gone and your guild now gets extra bonuses depending on its level. There are 25 levels and each level will automatically reward with more cool stuff. The leveling process remains unchanged and your guild will gain experience through PvP, Dungeon and Raid progression, questing, etc ...

Guild currency has also been removed and rewards will just be "unlocked" after you reach a specific level or complete a guild achievement. Once a reward is unlocked, members will be able to purchase it with gold. Some of the rewards include guild tabards, mounts, heirlooms, and it looks like you will finally be able to have a guild tabard on your mount. (Just like the Argent Tournament banners)

New members of a guild won't be able to buy everything directly, they will have to contribute to the progression of the guild before they can access the top rewards. Each time a player helps towards the leveling he will gain reputation with the guild, the best rewards will require players to be exalted with their guild before they can buy it.

The NDA is NOT lifted. We had a press tour come through and discussed a wide variety of things that are currently in the game. If you start just peppering out things that were not discussed, you will still be in violation of the NDA.

Q u o t e:


This is just pure crap, sorry.

There are all kinds of things I disagree with Blizzard about - and just because they aren't the same things you disagree with them about, doesn't mean I'm incapable of disagreement.


Disagreement is fine. As a matter of fact, we welcome it, as long as it is presented in an orderly manner.
