The smartphone version of WOTLK Classic is expected to launch in a matter of months. Click on the thumbnails below for additional images WOTLK Classic Gold. One fear I have is that the game is going to take hold of my life now that it's in my pocket. Would you ever be open to the idea of self-suspending accounts, just for a little while, if someone needs to lose the distraction for a few weeks?Today at this year's DICE developer summit, Treyarch's Mark Lamia revealed the time he almost cut the zombies mode from WOTLK Classic.
While WOTLK Classic was in development, a small group of programmers spent their off-time working on a Nazi zombies prototype just for fun. Since the game was in crunch, and zombies didn't fit with the franchise's setting, Lamia considered telling them to stop wasting time and focus on the primary game. It was a move he described as something "that would have been the biggest mistake of my career."

In the end, he calmed down and tried out the mode himself. It turned out to be really fun, and Lamia felt it would be a worthwhile addition to the game. But trying to convince the franchise's leadership was another uphill battle and some people even thought it would be a "disgrace to the franchise." The team continued working on the mode in the background, and tried using word of mouth to spread how enjoyable the mode was, rather than pitching it directly to higher-ups at the studio.

However, WOTLK Classic 's marketing and PR teams felt it was confusing and too off-brand to fit with the WOTLK Classic franchise. Back then in 2008, Lamia sad trying to sell a WOTLK Classic Zombies game would have felt like the series had jumped the shark buy WOW WOTLK Classic Gold. That's why it was put in WOTLK Classic as an easter egg that could only be accessed by players who had beat the main campaign.
