Cataclysm Closed Beta Key Contest!Follow

The biggest thing that excites me about Cataclysm is how things are being brought back in a sense to how they were in vanilla. Back to 31 point talent trees and the expansion takes place in Azeroth, which has always been my favorite area in the game. This expansion is really looking like its going to be the best yet. They've put so much added content in compared to other expansions. I can't wait to be able to finally fly around Azeroth and rediscover it again like when I first purchased the game.

The thing about Cataclysm that makes me wet the most is the old world changes. I'm actually excited to roll an alt and go through the world again instead of getting a RF account and speed running through dungeons getting 300% xp just so I can actually enjoy the character at the level cap.

Personally, I'm really excited about all the changes to the old world and how everything has reacted to them, like the development of Westfall to the new life in Desolace to the cleaving of The Barrens. All of it is just a really interesting change to what we've always known.

The one thing i am most excited for is leveling again. They are redoing all the old content( and old content is old) so i can finally do something i havent done 50 times!!!!! Who's with me?!?!!

Aside from playing as a Worgen, I'm most excited to see all of the old world completely revamped. One of the things I have problems doing the most in WoW is leveling a character from 1-58 since I find it so boring until you hit outlands, but it seems like cataclysm will definately spice things up again.

Rated Battlegrounds is probably #1 on my list. I hope things go back to the good old days when BG queues were tolerable if not instant.

The most exciting part of Cataclysm for me is how Azeroth will be changed forever. I can't wait to see the sundering of the world as we've know it for nearly six years, and what really gets my gears turning is the fact that it'll never be the same again. Never. It's not like the raid boss we kill over and over and over again each week because they magically come back to life to be downed again... the world will be permanently scarred and there's no going back. No do overs. Familiar heroes and other NPCs may not survive and be forever gone, or may move and change and have amazing stories to share. I want to hear those stories.

For almost six years the world has been mostly unchanged. New areas have been made available to us in the form of expansions and dungeons of course, but some of us have made so many characters over the years that we could level through low-end content in our sleep. The sundering will turn veterans into noobs again because all that we know so well will no longer be the same. No one will know it all anymore. It'll add a shiny newness to the world, and we'll all, new and old, have to venture outside of our comfort zone to succeed.

As an explorer and one who feels like I've "seen it all" in Azeroth, I can't wait to re-discover "new" things in old lands that I know like the back of my hand. And for once, the resulting changes are permanent and we'll never be able to go back to the way it used to be. New people that begin playing WoW after the Cataclysm occurs will never get to experience where we have all come from and veterans will have to serve as historians.

I am the most excited about experiencing the delight of discovery again in Azeroth after six years. I look forward to making a Goblin and experiencing how her lore weaves in and out amongst the chaos of the sundering.

I'm really looking forward to going back to the old zones and leveling a new character up to 85. I can't wait to explore everything again and see all the changes, especially now being able to fly in Azeroth. Am also really looking forward to starting a Worgen. I think the lore behind them is already fascinating and I can't wait to actually get to play one.

Thanks for the opportunity!

The thing I am absolutely without a doubt looking forward to most is playing as the Worgen! I am so psyched that the Alliance finally gets a savage and ferocious race to compete with all those ugly Horde! Their starting zone should be pretty damn cool and their racial abilities are nice as well. Another thing that has also peaked my interest recently though is the new 31 point talent specs. If the final product is anything like what we have seen thus far then I like its inherent simplicity and at the same time could allow you to have some real fun customizing your specs. But whenever I think of Cataclysm I just can't stop thinking about those Worgen!!!

The thing I'm most excited about is the revamp of Azeroth.I thing it's yet the best thing Blizz has done.Changing everything,from quests to including flying mounts.It will be so much fun leveling an alt again,doing basically new quests and exploring the new zones.And I can't wait for Heroic Deadmines and Shadowfang Keep,it's gonna be so epic :d

I am most excited by the ability to use flying mounts through out all levels and the various secret easter eggs that Blizzard has hinted at that will be available when flying through areas.

Worgen, Goblin, Flying everywhere, changes to the old world, bringing us back to the old world, and 31 point talent trees. Whats not to look forward to? I cant wait!!

I'm looking forward to rated battlegrounds. Love pvp and I think this is a great way to fix the problem with crappy random battleground teams.
