It’s not only World of Warcraft fans who are pumped about the beta for Forever; one of the game’s lead developers couldn’t contain his amazement at the success of the test so far.
On Twitter this past weekend, Josh “Aggrand” Greenfield posted, “Man, it was hard to sleep last night, I was so excited. Beta has been… crazy. The craziest numbers I’ve seen in 17 years working at Blizzard and almost eight years on classic. We’ve got something really special here.”
Of course, what exactly those “crazy numbers” are, he’s not specifically saying.
Greenfield went on to note that the beta is working as intended, saying, “We found more problems in six hours yesterday and fixed them than we would have found in six months of internal testing.”
There’s a lot of discovery happening in the beta, too, including the revelation that there’s a new armor set that Druids can get in Wailing Caverns that activates a serpent form. As the beta progresses, Blizzard is banning WoW Forever testers for offensive names and said that it’s not going to budge on its stance against shared mob tagging in the game.
