More BC eye candy, official and leaked

by Mike Schramm Sep 19th 2006 at 7:28PM

Bit-tech has posted a very nice preview of the Burning Crusade expansion-- apparently they lured Blizzard across the pond to show them the game (probably with cookies-- we all know Blizzard employees are weak for cookies). They don't have much in the way of new info; if you've been paying attention, you already know about the new honor system, "winged" dungeons, and the racial abilities and lore. But the one thing they do have is lots and lots of (relatively spoiler free) eye candy! Gape at the spectacular instances! Oooh at the beautiful new zones! And gasp at the new models!

Also, our good reader Mordicieus sent along a lot of leaked BC pics he found over on the Noggaholics forums. Click to see them, but watch out for spoilers...

Nogg says this is some wizard guy... Maybe you know him...
The Blood Elf mount
A few Draenei totem models
A few interesting mob models-- I like this guy
And Tier 4 sets: Warlock, Shammy, Hunter, and Druid

Remember, all the leaked stuff is still unconfirmed and likely unfinished. Thanks Mord!

Anyone notice that the supposed Tier 4 armor for Locks is on a Mage?
Questionable indeed

All of them are on a Mage. Hell, they're all on a human model and three of them are for classes that can't even be human. I wouldn't put too much scrutiny nor faith in any of this quite yet.

To be fair, the original tip we got acknowledged that all the armor was on a human mage. But that still doesn't mean you should bet the farm that these images are real. That's why they're called "leaked" :)

Well, you must admit, even if they are fakes they are extremely good fakes

I can't believe there hasn't been a Draenai totem joke involving lasers yet.

pew pew

Hunter and Warlock are extremly badass, but shaman and druid are fruity

That warlock armor is awesome, love the miniature black hole at the back. But boy, are Bloodelves in for hell thanks to that mount. Did it HAVE to be rainbow colored? Hope the epic one looks better....

But who am I kidding I still want it..

Ahem ahem BLOOD ELF MOUNT PICTURES!!!!

The sets displayed were most likely "hacked" (as in, not on a real Blizzard server, using a real WoW), so the likelihood of there authenticity is very high.

Also, is it just me, or does every spoiler I see of the Blood Elves remind me more and more of the (actual art of) Square's Final Fantasy franchise?
