Weekly Roundup 3/16/07

by

Had a bit of a laid back week this week, some nice weather early in the week, followed by some utterly horrible weather at the end of the week had me AFK for quite a bit.

Let’s get on with it though.

Monday I proved once more that idiots still abound. The good news is they seem quite happy to stick to the WoW general forums. Blizzard needs to stop nerfing and start buffing all classes. The fact that they don’t understand nerfing all classes to suck equally is not balance is still astounding.

On Tuesday I found the list of the Hot Developers of ‘07, with MMOs getting a healthy showing. For some it remains to be seen whether they will continue their trend of high quality games or not.

The Highlight of the Week, on Wednesday, was pulled from Kill Ten Rats a great blog and a great article on MMOs.

I went into Karazhan, the first raid instance in the World of Warcraft expansion on Thursday. Though it didn’t go great, there were some good things I picked up on. Our second attempt the following night went much better, but that’s for another time.

There was a delay in the Repairing Gears for the week, causing all articles to be pushed back slightly. As for Repairing Gears, it appeared Friday. We looked at some of the basics of the user interface, the unit frames. There will be plenty more next week, with some additions to the unit frames as well as additional diagrams for other interface areas. I also mentioned that starting with the upcoming week there will be a change in the weekly articles. The Repairing Gears topic will be moved to Wednesday, and on Thursday the Highlight of the Week will be posted. This should hopefully stop any future delays (though I’m me, so who knows.)

That covers this week, keep reading next.
