Quote:a) there is going to be an event leading up to the opening of the gates
and
B)the gate to outland will be open on day 1 when TBC goes retail
I don't think there will be player participation in the event.
Wowwiki saying the event has been changed
All the quotes I saw about player participation are ancient, quotes about Lork Kazzak and "open on day 1" are recent.
At least they picked Kazzak to do the opening - if somebody trys to take him out you can just grief them:)
Looking at it rationally, for a player participated event to have any meaning at all, there has to be some consequece for failure. But if there is a failure, that means that the portal isn't open on day 1.
My guess is on Day 1, Kazzak spawns and goes "Look, I have an relic of the past that radiates energy! Pewpewpew, I'm invincible! I'll just go over here and open this portal for you guys, then get out of the way."
