If they delay the game at this point, it will be the biggest blue ball i’ve ever experienced in WoW. I’m so done with BfA and i want to throw up when i think about the legendary cloak questline (even with the skips), the visions, the invasions…
It is better this way, there are still a lot of things to be fixed. No need of Rushes.. It suppose to be a unique experiense
Shadowlands in the Battle.net store still says "Will release on or before december 31, 2020" as well, so it wouldn't even surprise me if Shadowlands itself somehow gets pushed back as well. Then again, the stakeholders would be upset so I'm pretty certain that Blizzard would rather launch an expansion in a broken state right on time.
Stop pipe dreaming, they will never delay a release as important as a new xpac *less than a month* before release date. Can you imagine retails, advertisement, etc? Ship's already sailed.Joke's on those who will rush to raiding, and enjoy all the broken bugs, while I take my time and get to the stuff by the time it gets fixed :)
how long must I wait..
Does anyone think this affects Shadowlands release date too? Beta for Azeroth still hasn't come out of beta phase and now pre-patch tag got reverted.
Aren't Beta and Prepatch properly separate patches this time, instead of switch flipping?If Shadowlands needs to be knocked back a bit, fair enough. But give us prepatch! I'm so bored of my character not looking right!
Happy about this :D Blizzard should take the time needed to make Shadowlands as good as it can be , I'm ok with waiting if it means that all will be polished and good to go so we have the most fun and better experience for the next two years.Playing trough the years I realized that Blizz don't delay expansions after given a release date even if it would be better for the gameplay.Well we have to wait and see.

Looks like we get pre patch before 2021
Pre-patch on december and they will push release to 2021. They cant even release prepatch. Release will be pushed for sure.
The thing is:Even with the extra time, will Blizzard be able to do anything at all?Will they actually go and fix stuff? Or will they just "act like they would" for what ever reason?I am on the fence about the postponed PrePatch.On one side i want it to be next week, on the other side i want them to take their time and actual fix stuff..Then again i've been spamming Bug Reports and GM Tickets on Live Servers to point out an issue with two Pandaria Achievements thanks to 8.3 and .They tell me the Devs know about this.That was months ago. Of course with Corona, + BFA + SL + PrePatch they have other Priorities, yet i just hope that Blizzard actually USES the extra time they make themselves!-Raynuru/Oari
As if they are the cause of this problem.There is a pandemic in the world, and you are crying because of the game.
I hope they don't release it November with all the AAA titles - Destiny 2, Assassin's Creed, Cyberpunk... november is packed!
