Blizzard promised a revamped LFG system at this year’s BlizzCon, and the company is finally starting to deliver on the promise. Players will be able to take the updates for a spin alongside Icecrown Citadel in Patch 3.3, instead of waiting for Cataclysm, World of Warcraft’s third expansion.
There’s a parade of changes to the system, some expected, others out of the blue. Here’s the synopsis:
- Join as a Group or Solo
- Cross-Realm Instances/Grouping
- Instance Teleporting
- Smarter Group Matching
- Daily Random Dungeons
- Repeat Random Dungeons
- Choose Multiple Dungeons
- Vote Kick system
- Lovin’ the PUG Bonuses
- Looking For Raid
- Need Before Greed Updated
- Group Disenchanting
My personal favorites, PUG bonuses, Cross-Realm groups and Random Dungeons.
You can find the full breakdown at the official World of Warcraft website.
Personally I’m very much looking forward to the new LFG system as anything that helps find groups when you’re leveling up will be fantastic.
Ages ago on a certain forum I said dungeons should be more like BG’s, and everyone said that was a crap idea.
It was simply inevitable.
