Joystiq Sheds Light on Burning Crusade Expansion

The Burning Crusade, the official expansion to Blizzards epic MMORPG World of Warcraft (WoW), is chock-full of long-awaited goodies.  Besides flying mounts and the increased level cap of 70, there’s also plenty of PvP modification:

  • The PvP system is the first big change that our players have been waiting to hear about for a long time. … The first is the arena combat system. You’ll be able to join a team: 2v2, 3v3, or 5v5. There are two different modes you can play: One is called practice mode to hone your skills and the other is competitive mode, which is level 70 only.
  • We also want to get world PvP flowing again in WoW. A lot of players missed it, so every Outlands zone was designed with a major PvP objective in mind, so that’s the second of the big PvP announcements.
  • The third thing is a revamp of the honor system. We’re not going to do away with the honor system, but we’re going to fix many of the flaws with it. The first thing players will really care about is that your honor points will no longer decay. Honor points will now become the like the PvP equivalent of a PvE experience. Honor points are just something you accumulate and then we’ll introduce gear to the game so you can purchase that by spending your honor points.
  • We are actually lowering the raid cap which is now at 40. All the expansion raids will be 25 or less. The reason we are doing this is that we can still make the raids feel epic and difficult, but we just wanted to take some of the logistical headaches out of it. We’re also introducing a 10-man raid, as well.

    Bynari, Inc. Delivers Quality Products

    Posted in Uncategorized, Reviews, Exclusive, Official by ubersoldat on July 27th, 2006. [Del.icio.us]

    Bynari, Inc., is not a company of ordinary software developers.  Not only do those at Bynari specialize in the field of email integration, but they also excel in it.  Some of their latest products include the Insight Server, Insight WebClient, Insight Connector, and Insight AddressBook for Microsoft Outlook.

    Their innovation has its roots in Linux technology, and the products are aimed at increasing efficiency at the small to mid-sized corporate level.  Both the architecture and positive reviews of Bynari’s products are testimony to its value.  Another point to be emphasized is the ability of their Linux-based email servers to talk to Outlook versions 2000-2003, as well as to other IMAP servers like Cyrus and Courier.  Check out their Outlook Groupware here.  Finally, the affordability of Bynari products truly makes the choice a cinch.

    Burning Crusade gives WoW players Alliance shamans, Horde paladins

    Burning Crusade, the official Blizzard expansion to the highly-acclaimed World of Warcraft, will add classes that were previously exclusive to either the Alliance or Horde race to the opposing faction.  That means that the Alliance players will be able to have Shamans, which used to be a Horde-only class.  Likewise, the Horde will now be able to play as Paladins.  The justification for the cross-over of exclusive classes between opposing races is that there are new Dungeons that require the unique abilities of both Shamans and Paladins–thus spoke Blizzard.  The down side of this idea is that now neither the Horde, nor the Alliance has a unique class, which seems like a rather bad thing to me.
