Transmogrification rather than content?
I've seen a lot of these sorts of overstatements or oversimplifications of the work that we're doing on our end of things and I have to honestly say that it can get a bit tiring to see repeated as fact when it's opinion.
Yup, they're still at it. Apparently a loss of a million subs wasn't enough of a chain to use to pull their collective heads out of their collective asses. Starting to wonder what the magic number is... 2 million? 4 million? How many licks does it take for Blizzard to realize THEY are wrong and not us?
Don't get me wrong, I welcome the transmogrification system, but there is NO way that the work they put into it would equal the amount of work new content would require. "Mogging", to make it easier to type, is almost completely a code change. No reliance on any other department but the coding team.

Post count just means you spend too much time reading and not enough playing. :P

The B-team is sensitive. When will people learn that. We should only cheer their accomplishments.

I think it's less than B-Team at this point. Seems like they're just not getting as much done in the same time period as they used to before. Think WoW is basically running a skeleton crew right now. Lots of different games being made right now.

So basically it's not an issue of the b team; it's an issue of the b team?

I think he's saying it's more that they lack the manpower to get things done in a certain time frame and less that they lack the skill to get things done in a certain time frame.

Sounds to me like a nerve was hit. The truth hurts I guess.

Well the six unpaid summer interns that worked on this are very proud of what they did.

I don't understand why they even bother to respond to people like that. It just makes them look bad arguing with randoms.

It makes them look bad and it shows how desperate the situation must be getting for them when they are unable to hide their frustration.

I think he means the C or D Team...
Or jsut maybe that Blizzard shrunk the B Team so at half the size it's only as effective as the D Team.
