It worked fine in Legion. It's just so god-damn boring! If they think forcing people to do these things to level and progress, then going to their superiors and saying "look how many people still love doing our garrison crap, we told you WoD was a good idea!", whilst making us suffer another expansion of this is a good idea, then they are smoking some serious crack. I have no idea where they are getting their feedback from if they thought the playerbase wanted another 2 years of clicking missions "gameplay".What exactly was the point of it in Legion, by the way? They drastically reduced the amount of gold you could get from WoD. It just felt like you were doing it to level followers, to get more follower equipment to level followers to wait for a patch for the follower item level to go up to get more follower equipment to max out followers. And for what? The fun of clicking a board once a day.For the love of god, make it totally ignorable this time round. I do not want to find my progress blocked because some completely invisible NPCs need two days to go and do a "mission" that I have literally nothing to do with before I can carry on. For the fifth and sixth year in a row.
Sweet, was thinking that my ability to send minions to do "dailies" for resources was going to turn into "ME doing it" - like before mission boards.Glad they are going to exist - the real question is 'how lucrative?" Right now garrisons and order halls have paid for my WoW for a very long time, game purchases, server moves, boosts, etc. Order Halls were actually more lucrative than garrisons - which was awesome. If that continues, and I can use an app, I'm very happy.@LyssaWoW "What was the point?": Well, I generate 2 WoW tokens a week just from using the app to run order hall missions. And I still use my garrisons to generate hexweave cloth and I sell 30 or so bags a week - and some draenor chants (cloak still sells) for about a 1/2 token a week. For real. It's good! I can then just focus on my 2 mains and do mythic+ or other stuff, never using the order halls directly on any toon (sadly, I have to visit the garrison to do the cloth, so that's annoying).@Complainers: If you don't like it, don't use it - sheesh you complainers! Just because I don't RAID I'm not here saying "ooh, remove RAIDING - too much good gear there I never see, I want it removed from the game!"
Another time sink being recycled because they can't come up with a better alternative. If you like missions then don't complain about the wow economy as it is basically a get rich quick scheme.
They can keep the mission stuff, if it will be a bit revamped and won't be taking as much time with levelling new followers.
Cry me a river and put a mission on it. For the people like me who enjoy this kind of content, I'm glad Blizzard does't listen.
Seeing all the people saying anything involving "Free gold" makes me really hope Blizzard makes it so this system doesn't give you gold. I would love to see how you guys would react to this system then.The game is already suffering from pretty extreme inflation seeing as we now have mounts for sale that cost 2 million gold. It wouldn't hurt to remove gold making from missions to prevent it from getting worse.
They said they weren't going to do this again.They lied again :(
scouting table for which zone you want to do is fine, even the bodyguard system is fine, but I hate the mission side of it, I hate the afk gameplay it promotes, I want to do the stuff myself, at least they somewhat learned their lesson from WOD and the followers couldnt actually get you the raid gear directly, you had to actually go into the raid first, even if it was only LFR.
As long as I can use the app, I don't care.
I'm in no way opposed to the idea of a mission table. Really liked how much money I made on the side in Legion and wish to continue doing so in BfA.Just...troops. That's something I really didn't like in Legion because in the beginning they ate so much Order resources, it was hard to also do research on the Order Hall and you had to also level your Combat Ally before they could help get resources. By now they became pretty much useless thanks to the champion gear which nearly guarantees a 200% chance every time, but now the cycle begins anew? Ugh.
Look at all the cry babies whining about a system that only takes about few min of your time.
