Look at this... gotta be a joke Wisps as playable race.!? wtf.

Seems a old rumors as those dragon/reptile like creatures, (I dont see it, too hard to wear armor)

I WANT it to be GOBLINS. I just like the lil' dudes.

Murlocs.... No Way. They wouldnt have did the pet thing if so.

... .. I'm at a loss. Werewolf ppl for alliance would be SWEET!!! A good guy beast.

The alli race will be unappealing, Dranei wouldn't surprise me; they're desperate to even out the numbers a bit. I don't think blood elves will cut it; most alliance will make one, get it to 10-20 and decide to go back to their alliance mains where all their gold and friends are.

The new race will 99% chance of likely being the Dranei. The wisp was an april fools joke.

Any new race on the alliance side will automatically be lame since it is Alliance. Therefore, a race that looks like a Panda, will probably be the new Alliance race since it would just fit with the lameness that is Alliance. :p

I'm wrong but a lot of you who play Horde know that deep down I am right!

All playable races will have to be humanoid is shape, for weapon/armor/items design issues.

I'd love to see Worgen as the playable race, but as was mentioned, Blizzard desperately wants to try and balance out the Alliance vs Horde ratio, so the Alliance race will probably be something relatively boring, which makes a strong case for Dranei.

Huge names in bright RED letters are kind of a big giveaway. Half the time, I have no idea what race of creature I'm killing, only the class.

Indeed, this is why I strongly favor removing faction restrictions on BGs. Keep everything else in place (world PvP, alliance being KoS in horde cities & vice versa, no common language), but let BG teams form and communicate regardless of faction. BGs suck in their current implementation; alliance has 1-5 hour waits, depending on the server and which BG it is. Horde have to have a PvP group going because pugs end up as 1-3 horde vs. a full team of alliance, making any honor or rep you get (if any) take as long as it would if you sat in an hour+ queue and won x_x

The Horde finally got an decent looking race, so the Alliance will get something fugly. Heard lots of rumors about the Dranei.

WoW looks pretty damn fruity. It's like a cartoon.. So whatever race it is, it'll look stupid. But, some dumbass nerd will masturbate to it.
