Blizzard has included an updated DirectX path in the latest beta of its upcoming World of Warcraft: Cataclysm, bringing DX11 to WoW.


What are you thoughts on this and what other improvements would you like to see?

I would like to see WoW getting next-generation graphics on the whole game and not just small effects in the new Cataclysm area.
 
I really don't know why WoW don't update the textures and increase the quality, it can still have the same style, the textures getting higher quality and higher res doesn't need to change the colouring or style, not sure why people think thats the case at all.

It is a huge world and would take a heck of a lot of work to do, but frankly so much of the game looks 10 years old that its a bit of a joke at this stage.

Games are about gameplay, but same gameplay and better looking is better than same gameplay and worse looking.

The reason I think it needs a whole update though is, these daft graphical improvements they've done for a couple years have essentially been crap, shadows, crappy shadows that really make very little difference or slightly improved newer area's make the game feel odd and disjointed, update everything or nothing IMHO, a very very half hearted graphics update with one new effect that looks out of place makes it look overall worse rather than better.

I totally agree but its true that World of Warcraft doesn't require any demanding hardware so they have a bigger fan base but people should just update their hardware occasionally.
 
I think that its a good idea to make a new game like World Of Warcraft but with next generation graphics.
 
These days with a few months of WoW subscription you could afford a decent graphics card which could play games very wel.l I think theres no excuse for not being able to play a better graphical version of WoW so please update the whole game with better graphics.
 
I see where people come from when they say MMOs are a waste of time and time consuming obviously because of leveling but thats ALL games for you and its up to you how many hours you want to consume.

Example: I know someone who spends the same hours on xbox live or playing CSS on the pc
