Warlords of Draenor Won't Require a New Computer
-----------Blizzard says that players "shouldn't be worried about any big drop in performance" as a result of the new character models and features.
On the game forums Blizzard community manager Taepsilum responded to the question if the players will need a new computer to play Warlords of Draenor. "That's a hard question to answer. I'd say that you shouldn't be worried about any big drop in performance; things will most likely remain very close to what you are experiencing right now. So if you're satisfied with what you have right now, then there shouldn't be any need to change anything."
"We are also applying a squish to anything related to stats; this means that in certain situations, there might be some performance improvements, especially when it comes to add-ons that process combat data," Taepsilum said. "More importantly, we are reducing the amount of visual clutter that currently fills every fight where a lot of players are involved. Less sparkly stuff flying around means better video performance for everyone."
"Client performance is something we care about a lot. It doesn't matter how well-designed an encounter is: you aren't going to have fun raiding at 8 FPS," Taepsilum added. "We want everyone to be able to enjoy playing with the new models, and our dev team is working hard making sure that WoW is as resource efficient as possible in order for that to happen."
Warlords of Draenor is World of Warcraft's fifth expansion, and will launch this fall.
