If the basic design of the modern MMO is analogous to an amusement park, the most nightmarish portion of the development team's job doesn't even begin until after the game launches. Prior to that, the development team can still make major changes and tweaks without worrying about affecting people who are currently paying the bills. The temptation then is for the team to rush in and immediately start fixing things based on extremely small data sets and subjective interpretations. What the Warhammer Online team did instead was what might be referred to as "game triage." They needed to decide which problems were truly game-threatening and focus on those and which could wait.Post-launch, however, that all goes out the window by the incessant demands of the player-base that screams for changes without service interruptions. Extending the analogy, it's like asking the designers of Disneyland to completely re-do the Pirates of the Caribbean while people are still riding it.   You can buy cheap wow gold here ,we have cheap wow gold for sale !

The result of the team's initial focus on staunching critical issues quickly and getting ahead of small leaks before they became big ones seems to have paid off. After only a few months, the 1.1 patch will see the beginning of major structural changes to the game including the launch of two new classes that were cut from the initial release -- the Knights of the Blazing Sun and the Black Guard. "There were a lot of reasons these two classes were cut from the game," said Adam Gershowitz, Combat and Careers Strike Team lead. "While they were farther along than the Choppa and the Hammerer, they were missing huge chunks of artwork and they weren't balanced at all." According to Gershowitz, the two classes were always on the short list for returning to the game, but once they were cut, the game had to balanced without them and regardless of how much the team liked them, they wouldn't be coming back until the team was sure the game could handle them without losing that.  Buy cheap wow gold here !
