If you told me that WoW's Mists of Pandaria: Remix would suffer its largest controversies over frogs before it came out, I'd stare at you and ask if you needed some water and a sit-down. Turns out that's
Being MMO players, WoW's playerbase naturally found an area where frogs could"hyper spawn" and, through some gamer finesse, caused them to appear in droves—those who got to the farm early enough to take advantage soared above their fellow players in terms of strength.—I'm reminded of a certain South Park episode where the gang spends a lot of time killing boars—it was also hotfixed.
Player response still feels inflamed, though, judging by the initial ream of comments:"Remember folks: Exploit early, exploit often. You will not be punished for doing so, and Blizzard will make sure no one can catch up to you," On the other hand, I do think people are losing their gourd over a mode that is, by design, meant to be messy and experimental. I got to speak to WoW's, who told me that the live team—the group running events like MoP: Remix—develop content that"come together, by WoW team standards, very quickly". This thing's meant to be an experiment, and sometimes experiments explode because of frogs. It is what it is.
