WoW: Orc shoulders graphic bug update - Image 1 


We previously covered a graphic bug regarding the Orc's shoulders being too small (see image above) in World of Warcraft. Now, I'm not one to judge another race but this just makes them a little less threatening.


This bug has already caused a lot of players to feel that Blizzard hasn't been paying attention to their concerns. Be that as it may, Blizzard Poster/ Forum Moderator Nethaera took this in stride and addressed the Orc Populace regarding their size issues in a humorous post.

Don't get too used to them the way they are now. Oh sure, you'll kick the Orcs while you can. You'll toss jibes at them. In the end though, they'll have their big gnome crushing shoulder pads and they'll come gunning for you with a little payback in mind for the things you said to them. Vengeful Orcs are very dangerous.


Translation: This is just a bug that is being corrected in an upcoming patch. The shoulders will not be staying this way.


So there you have it, next patch, Orcs will be restored to their former *ahem* glory come next patch. A lot of Orcs would have preferred to have this oversight fixed immediately, but we can't have everything right?

This only shows that blizz dont care about its customers. Since we are hooked on the game we cant really rebel against anything blizz does.

And there has been far worser things than shoulders resize (whole realms not function for more than a week, etc etc)

But dont worry blizzard, the repeated abuse of your client's tolerance, will pay back when a stronger MMO alternative will present itself.

DONT bask in your glory too much.

 » Now it's the Orch Shoulders...What's next on the list?

I can remember when Blizzard ruined the Rogue Stealth walking animation of every race in World of Warcraft. After thousands of complaints Blizzard told the community that this was an animation bug and that it would be fixed, well, this was over an year ago and they still haven't fixed it!

Now you've got this horrible orc shoulder bug and they are saying the same thing all over again. Makes you wonder...
