Cataclysm Closed Beta Key Contest!Follow

I look forward to three main things in Cataclysm;

1. The lore! As a Horde player I am very excited (although not so much agreeable with) about the new leadership of Garrosh Hellscream, as well as the story of Sylvanas' rebellious path.

2. Revamped old-world zones; As I only reached level 49 before The Burning Crusade hit, I missed out on the fun that was Blackrock Mountain, Stratholme, Vanilla raids etc. I would like to be able to experience these areas just like the Vanilla veterans did, but with all new and improved dungeon mechanics and boss fights!

3. The return of CC! I have read everywhere that the dead practice of CC will be making its triumphant return in Cataclysm. As a rogue player I'm looking forward to showing off some pro blinds, although I dread the classic 'Oops I forgot to go in stealth when I ran up to sap that guy" thing that I know every Rogue is ashamed to admit they've done.

Bring on the second sundering, I say!

I'm excited about the old world being revamped into a newer tighter experience. When leveling an alt recently I noticed how jumbled and difficult the old world quest hubs were compared to the newer and more innovative Outland and Northrend hubs. I think leveling alts post-expansion will be a new experience in itself.

I'm most looking forward to exploring the goblin race. As a roleplayer, exploring the goblin areas and uncovering the mysteries of goblin culture would greatly help in developing a background for my main who, more than likely, will be going goblin come Cataclysm as soon as race changes to them will be available. Not to mention Kezan and the Lost Isles look amazing from what I've seen of them so far and I'd love to see what appearance options I have as a goblin, because to be honest, the old models really need some updating. : /

On a lesser note I'm also greatly looking forward to flying my way around Azeroth and exploring those places that have been previously been unavailable to explore.

I pretty much look forward to everything, from an updated PvP system, to new talents, new profession levels and craftables, new quests, new zones, and the list goes on. :)

im looking foward to most of the whole shabang.so to speak,the new guild Ui,the 2 new races,seeing how garrosh effects the horde.and the answer that we all want...what happened to thrall?

im really looking forward to seeing all the changes to all the zones
also new quest
and being able to fly in areas we couldnt before

Oh, jeez. What -isn't- there to like about this? I think what I'm going to enjoy the most will be the new races to play. It's going to open up SOOOO many opportunities for role play. I think I'll probably play a Goblin first, while I wait for the Alliance's Worgen-mania get over with. I mean, on an RP server, lots of Twilight RP is gonna rear its ugly head. I've already planned out my own cartel and everything. Claussen Needlewrench of the Needlewrench Cartel. We specialize in weapons. And any other goods you need, heehee. I'm always handy to have around - for a price.

Does that sound goblin-y? Haha.

Ooh, and you know what else I'm REALLY gonna love? Deadmines and Shadowfang Keep, heroic style. I've loved VanCleef since I've started playing World of Warcraft, and Shadowfang Keep was my all-time favorite Old World instance. Getting a challenge from VanCleef again is just gonna make my day. And again, it's gonna be great for RP. Imagine a party of Worgen in SFK? It's gonna be awesome.

Needless to say I can't wait for Cataclysm. If nothing else, the reworked world of Azeroth is gonna be great. But, ya know. That's all I have to say about it. Cataclysm for the win!

I'm most excited about guild perks. I've been in one of the biggest guilds on my server for a long time, and I think that we're going to be one of the first to unlock the perks. The idea of more skillups, more experience, more reputation, and more gathering mats sounds awesome, especially to someone with a ton of alts (like myself)

I wanna use 1h / 1h fury again

The part of Cata I'm definitely the most excited about is the new world created from what was old content, seeing all the fighting between the Alliance and Horde all over the world, and the new raids.

I love all of the planning that has gone into Cataclysm. It's the expansion that really needed to happen because there were plenty of parts of the old world that were making less and less sense. I'm really glad that they're bringing Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms up to speed, but actually, my favorite part, is going to be all of the new quest lines to do. The updated 1-60 leveling experience is my favorite part of Cataclysm.

I'm mostly excited about overlooking the new zones,talents and abillities and off course playing the worgen, RAWRRRRR.

Looking foward to how the new hunter resource will effect the class and starting up a worgen.

My main is a Boomkin, so I'm probably most excited about the new UI elements and changes to the Druid class, as well as getting that new mushroom attack :D. The Paladin changes also sound very interesting, I've been leveling a Protection pally, so it'll be fun to see the new pally stuff(like the cd pet thing, holy power), and getting to experience the other pally stuff(like wings, divine plea, fun shield tossing) as I continue to level. I would love to try out all the new fun things that will be going on in Cataclysm, and hope to have the chance to.
