一些未得到证实的消息

免责声明

 

目前还没有得到官方确认。然而,TiPSOut 坚称这些消息十分正确。第一手消息有95%是真的,第二手消息70%是真的。我自己都不认为这些消息百分之百是真的。但是官方怀旧服就像沙漠里的雨水,而等待官方怀旧服的玩家就是那穿越沙漠的人。这篇消息就是暴雨前的雷声吧(打雷不一定下雨)。

 

我现在正在看这个视频,我会持续更新。

消息来源:HTTPS://www. Twitt.Tv/VISOS/243356185

 

消息1

怀旧服首席开发官是一名参与早期wow开发的员工,他已经为暴雪工作了12-14

目前员工的名字还没有公布。

不是Brack。也不是MeZZN

主要开发人员均自愿参与该项目,唯一的初心就是再造香草。

资深开发人员是来自VAVLE的员工。这听起来像是一个笑话,但根据消息,这是真的。他们主要在构建基础框架。

 

消息2

消息来源非常可信,100%是真的

完全的原滋原味:

我们不会对香草服务器作出任何改变。

它仍然在内部争论(不用说)一些细节。然而初始将从1.1版本开始

 

消息3

目前这个开发团队有5个开发人员。

虽然看起来由于人手不足会导致开发进度缓慢,但最有可能不是这样,因为人少争论就少意见更加统一,反而速度就更快。(我的想法)

之所以只有很少的开发人员,目的就是保持完整的香草游戏体验,因此只有软件开发人员才被雇佣来完成这个任务。

 

消息4

Tipsout说,第四条消息是保密的,所以不能公布。但是这条消息证实了消息2百分之百可信。

如果Tipsout的来源是真的,我们可以推测首席开发官如下:

在TBC之前的WOW版本中只有7个程序员只有3个是领导者。在这3中,只有1个有经典的魔兽世界游戏系统编写经验。

 

它们是按可能性大小排列如下:

Patrick MagruderTBC17人开发团队一员,军团再临:首席开发官之一

Patrick DawsonTBC17人开发团队一员,军团再临:唯一一个服务器程序员)

Cory StocktonTBC:首席等级设计师;军团再临:游戏设计师)

Omar Gonzalez 游戏程序员)

Transscription of leaks allegedly confirmed.

Unconfirmed

DISCLAIMER

This is NOT confirmed officially yet. However, the source (TipsOutBaby) is VERY adamant about the truth of these leaks. His main source is 95% correct and his second source is 70% (According to him). I don't say any of these leaks are true nor do I fully believe them as of now. Downvote me me or whatever you want, but I strongly felt the urge to share these leaks. Take these leaks with a grain of salt.


I'm currently watching this video and will update this post whenever anything new is brought up.

Source:https://www.twitch.tv/videos/243356185


Leak 1

Lead Developer has been credited for WoW's development since early burning crusade and most likely was affiliated with WoW vanilla development as well but wasn't fully employed, hence no credits. Allegedly, he's been working 12-14 years for Blizzard.

The Lead Developer's name is confirmed, but the beans won't be spilled.

... And no. It's not Brack. nor Metzen.

The Lead Developer VOLUNTEERILY works on the project for the sole purpose to recreate vanilla.

Senior Developer is a veteran developer from Valve. This might sound like a joke, but according to the leak, it's true. He contributes mainly to the infrastructure.

Leak 2

the source is VERY adamant this is 100% true. 100%. True.

Now, hold onto your hats, purists:

We will be getting NO changes to vanilla. None.

It's still up for debate internally (needless to say) which patch and how they'll set it up. However, hinted by the leak, they could start from 1.1 instead of running a franken-patch as of now.

Leak 3

There's 5 developers on the team currently.

Although this might seem like it negatively affects the developing speed, it most likely doesn't, as less developers mostly lead to better results than tons of developers that have to unanimously agree upon a change. (My thoughts)

The reason why there's little to no developers is because there's no intent in changing vanilla, hence only software devs have been hired for this task.

Leak 4

According to Tipsout, this information is confidential, therefore he isn't allowed to share the 4th leak. However, he claims that it firmly validates the 2nd leak.

Edit: Corrected "most likely" as people misinterpreted.

 

IF Tips Out' sources are true, we can deduce The Lead Developer as follows:

There are only 7 programmers in The Burning Crusade credits that arenotin the vanilla credits and thatarein the Legion credits. Of those, only 3 are Leads. And of those 3, only 1 has classic WoW recoding game systems written all over him.

They are, in order of likeliness:

 

Patrick Magruder(tbc: programming 1 of 17, legion: lead gameplay programmers, 1 of 2) game systems expert, i.e. gravity in the game, quests backend, etc. has exactly the knowledge needed. possibility. started on blackwing lair bug fixing. leads small team, is the ideal guy to recode classic wow. Has been playing since the start, same character. favorite thing he worked on: fondly remembers Hotwing Lair (for all the hotfixes in BWL). equipment set manager. basics of multitalent system. inventory management. fixups.youtube

 

Patrick Dawson(tbc: programming 1 of 17, legion: lead server programmer, only 1) takes care of scalability of legion under load. possibility. dodged question on nost shutdown but did react. old civilization III and IV guy. is a team lead.youtube

 

Cory Stockton(tbc, lead level designer only 1; legion, lead game designer, 1 of 5) joined june 2005, mostly designed zones, joined a little too early. possibility. ratchet and clank guy. lead content designer WoD...youtube+ specifically excluded by Tips Out during stream (edit).

 

Omar Gonzalez (gameplay programmer, 1 of 11) pure coder, invisible, unlikely to be the lead. Jeff Mears (server programmer, 1 of 10) pure coder, invisible, unlikely to be the lead. Russell Bernau (mobile programmer, only 1), invisible, has the right timing but unlikely. Pat MacKellar (gameplay programmer, 1 of 11) invisible, has the right timing but unlikely.
