Goblin and Worgen Rumored to be the new Race?!

[polarmike76]

According to mmo champion

Goblins and Worgens are the new races of the Expansion
I like catchy titles. In the last PTR build 4 new textures of Halloween masks have been added.


* 2 of them are for Goblins masks - Helm_Mask_Halloween_GoF and Helm_Mask_Halloween_GoM
* 2 of them are for Worgens masks - Helm_Mask_Halloween_WoF and Helm_Mask_Halloween_WoM


Even if the Goblin texture would make sense as an addition to the game, adding Worgens texture out of nowhere is definitely a sign that the 2 new races of the expansion will be the Worgens (most likely for the Alliance) and the Goblins.

I know that a lot of people will love to argue with that over hundreds of replies. I would just like to add that it usually takes a lot to make me post something on the front page and I don't think I've ever been wrong everytime I did. Hopefully Blizzard will react fast enough and add tons of new masks in the next build just to pretend that it was intended. (Suggestion: Pandarens please)


On a non related sidenote, I would also like to point out that the old Emerald Dream maps that have been in the game files for years have been slightly updated throughout the 3.2, and in the Build 10072 of the PTRs the Map.dbc file with some of the settings for each zone was updated to make it a 40 Players max zone.

So Worgen for Alliance and Goblins for Horde....supposedly


Any thoughts? ( Personally I think it's bullshit)

Thats not what catches my eye; the 40 players max catches it. Perhaps the Emerald Dream will be one, gigantic, 40-man "instance" type?

Worgen reminds me of a giant wolf dog type thing, so it would be gnarly if they made them in here.

But i dont know, goblins can be kind of neutral, but ithink they would add to horde since we have NO

LITTLE PEOPLE.

just my opinion though.

[Casperx]

How would both races wear armor? and they dont seem to be really fun imo.

[polarmike76]

idk i think worgen are cool....idk bout the goblins though

I already posted in a thread like this but I'll say it again here. Worgen don't make sense because they are just humans that transform at night, werewolves. Goblins makes sense, since they were once apart of the horde. Also, there is far more goblins then what we see in game. Steamwheedle cartel, venture company etc, thats just a few goblins. They choose to remain neutral to make money but not all goblins do.

Worgen are large, wolf-like humanoids reminiscent of a werewolf that walks upright, but lopes on all fours to run. According to sources held by the undead, the worgen come from another dimension, and exist only to terrorize and destroy. These creatures are thoroughly evil, delighting in torturing and devouring intelligent creatures. They enjoy hearing the screams of their victims as they tear them apart piece by piece. Worgen never show mercy or remorse. They may seem savage, but they are fairly intelligent and possess a cruel bestial cunning that can come as a surprise to the unprepared.

Most worgen keep their wolf-like forms at all times, but experiments by the mage Arugal has resulted in human/worgen hybrids who only appear as worgen under the light of the moon.

[zelghadis]

i think goblins are possible - remember that only some factions of the race are in Horde/Alliance - and it goes for all races - Allys kills bloodsails, Horde kills trolls in ZA etc etc. But Worgen? I think that 'warewolves' are a little to 'bad-ass' to be part of alliance

[Fagex Fallout]

Worgan would be amazing
