holy shit getting a new ui designer was the best decision they ever made
Christopher Hernandez
Definitely
Asher Hill
Christopher Sullivan

It's pretty incredible when you see how basic things were. The people working on this had no idea the level of phenomenon it would become.
It's sad we'll never get to see these builds to enjoy the What If of them.
Jeremiah Baker
male undead looks kind of like the d2 necro
Leo Rivera
Isaiah Williams
Elijah Torres
Glad they didn't stick to this artstyle. Would've aged like milk.
Dominic Lewis
Adrian Adams
this thread is making me happy.
Jonathan James
Such a shame they didn't stay with this style. It would have aged well.
Brody Reed
Xavier Peterson
I'm guessing the Ulduar continent is what Uldum ended up turning into. Interesting.
Josiah Myers
>warcraft 2 mouse pointer
PURE FUCKING SOUL
God I loved old Blizzard so much
Nolan Rogers
Gavin Green
Christian Cooper
why is the dwarf censored
Charles Martin
it should make you sad
Carson Hernandez
Adam Jackson
Undead and nelf are pretty good here
Joseph Watson
Logan Phillips
Undead got in before trolls? Crazy.
Jackson Martin
Fucking insane that male nelfs and male orcs were entirely finalized years out from launch
Adrian Torres
Love the huge dark portals as instance placeholders
Anthony Sanders
Plaguelands or Silithus maybe
Hudson Cruz
Alpha Karazhan was huge and fucking scary
Cooper Davis
iirc that's another proto-Outlands zone
I recognize that mushroom model
Aiden Watson
God imagine if MC was part of the brd instance
Aaron Jones
one of the reasons I loved wow back then was the fact that dinosaurs were in the game. there was no other mmo at the time where you could tame a raptor or ride one
Carson Wilson
>like 30 frost mages
Checks out lmfao
Adrian Foster
Apparently darkness was going to play a role in the world. Zones like Duskwood would be completely dark so you'd have to have a touch with you to see. The old leftover from this feature can be seen in very wet weapons, such are torches or offhand lamps that still give off light
Nathan Kelly
Interesting to see these islands existed long before they were made into expansions. Also explains Shadowlands when they ran out of islands.
Brandon Powell
joe rogan looking good here
Jackson Bell
>Gnomes and Trolls were added later
Explains why they share starting zones with other races, had no ide aabout this.
Blake Reed
Man, I miss when there was no flying and there were still super mysterious unused areas in the world.
Austin Hall
>That giant ass Ulduar that was gonna be below Kalimdor
I will go to my deathbed with a desire to know what this was about.
Brayden Walker
Presumably a gigantic titan facility before they downsized it into a raid in Northrend.
Gabriel Lewis
What a extremely stark difference, holy shit.
The art style change alone was a godsend, but the UI change is a way bigger, not to mention meaningful, change of all.
Justin Fisher
Thomas Gray
beta STV arena?
Nolan Gutierrez
This! A bit mind blowing how piss basic the early / prototype versions of this game were.
Even more so when you think what a vastly different product it would become on release, not to mention years later.
Grayson Rogers
old warcraft 3 development pics, now those are interesting. it was basically another game
Justin Diaz
Im sure the UI on those was just placeholder and not final at all, just enough to be able to debug and stuff like that
Wyatt Bell
Dominic Rivera
it makes me sad player housing never made the cut because this looks immensely comfy
Noah Walker
>Was nearly cut
>Kaplan made it in a fucking week
Fucking King shit right there.
Connor Jones
Crazy thing about this screenshot is that it's actually accessable in game today. If you do to the Deadmines and clip through the wall using an item or potion that increases your size, you can fall through the map until you eventually end up in this area. Crazy to think it's been literally under everyone's nose all these years
Andrew Miller
Shit like this sound cool as hell in parts on paper, but they make you wonder how terrible they might've been if actually released.
The torch stuff especially would've added a lot to immersion, especially since regional servers have the same time as you do at home.
Joshua Morales
RIP the true OG Iron Forge
Ryder Phillips
Why is such place in the Deadmines instance?
Daniel Watson
Don't forget the Emerald Dream, an unused continent sized zone complete with its own unique textures and models that was just sitting in the files since before TBC.
It sucks we will never see what they originally had planned for it.
Jacob Roberts
More skimpy Succubus
