Wrath of the Lich King intro movie

[Ranger]

Revealed at Leipzig today:

[Axel]

Where is the gnome?!

[.:TeamAmerica:.]

Looks so epic, I really can't wait now :)

[Javascrypt]

Cinematics - yes.
Trailer - no.

Wonder how they make those so realistic :)

[Charles]

Was awesome, Arthas is pro. Although I expected more action like TBC cinematic.

[Ranger]

The frostwyrm in it is called Sindragosa, in-game she has the title <The Frost Queen> and is very closely connected to Arthas. We can assume she's the replacement for Sapphiron seeing as he got screwed over in Naxxramas (Or he's still there in the WotLK naxx), but there is an area in Icecrown called 'Sindragosa's fall', if you look at the minimap, shows where she burst up in the cinematic and where she flew over the Scourge horde :P

[Crimson]

It's a greeat trailer.

But Diablo 3's trailer is so more intense. They need one that is really like; "OMG OMG OMG".

yea....


WOOP 25% Of WOW: LK Client downloaded

about 5 hours remaining >.<

[Danzilla]

I tried downloading the HD version but it wouldn't let me, anyone know why? I opened the blizzdownloader thingy and it says my download isn't autherised.
Now iv watched it though, i can't wait to play it. I think there should be more action in it though like TBC as its a tad boring.

[Charles]

Wouldn't say it's boring. If you're into the WoW-Lore then it's fantastic, what with Terenas narrating what would have been if Arthas didn't zerg Azeroth but also while watching the cinematic, you can see that Arthas has become King, but not quite what his father had hoped.

[TehJoshy]

Download the proper Quality version its so much more sexier than the stream! <3!!
Arthas is teh sex luls kk?!?? QQ

[Stephen!]

YEAH COOL. Although, guys you do realise this isn't representing gameplay at all? Because this is awesome doesn't meant the game will be.

[Danzilla]

YEAH COOL. Although, guys you do realise this isn't representing gameplay at all? Because this is awesome doesn't meant the game will be.

Erm, i think we all know that. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y273/daz951/p.jpg

[Stephen!]

So really, this has nothing to do with the Lich king game.

[TehJoshy]

So really, this has nothing to do with the Lich king game.
its lore :).

Thats why its called a "Cinematic" and not a Gameplay Trailer :)

[Moh]

Am I the only one who kinda found that a let down?

Yea, you cans see they have spent alot of money on it, but it dosn't exactly show you anything.. or isn't it suppose to?

[Nemo]

i get that too :(

[Crimson]

I found it quite a let down.. Especially after the hype of Diablo 3 (whereas WoW is probably bigger than Diablo) with their Cinematic Trailor is pretty amazing.

I think there should have been more *BOOM* and *RAWR* in the trailor instead of just a little dragon flying away.

[Imp!]

THis guy I know but on of those key things to play it, he already has a level 69 death knight >.>

[Charles]

So really, this has nothing to do with the Lich king game.

Hahahahahahah o lawd

[Danzilla]

Hahahahahahah o lawd

I lol'd and then lol'd even more at your typo. :P

[Axel]

Who's the Lich King?

[Nemo]

Who's the Lich King?
Arthas, the guy in the trailer.

[Danzilla]

Who's the Lich King?

Me, as Niamh said.


Daz951, the guy in the trailer.

[Ranger]

It shows you a glimpse of things to come, like I've already put, the big dragon/frostwyrm in it will be another end-game raid boss, and the valley where all those scourge were is in the game, you can see it on the screenie in the first page.

I reckon the way up to Icecrown will be another 'gate' system like the Sunwell Plateau was, I had a dabble on a sandbox server and there's three huge walls with gates in them, called 'something', the 'something' gate. Or something.

Found the way in which we'll get into it now anyway, the Argent Dawn have built a massive staging area next to a sheer cliff which they've tunneled through, called 'The Breach', and that leads to a huge scourge settlement called 'Scourgeholme', which leads down to the first 'gate' as such. Can post some screenies if you want.

Thats not from a live beta test is it? i mean c'mon why would a Paladin need runes >.>
Nice screens though.

[Ranger]

No, that's not live, it was on a sandbox. You can't get into Icecrown at the moment, if you try, you just get ported back where your HS is set.
They've added the Storm peaks now though, and I know from my own exploring that if you can survive a long fall then you can probably get over the invisible barriers that stop you getting in. I haven't tried though, I'm focusing on the Death knight.

And as for Sylvanas, her model was updated:
