Senior Audio Director and Lead Composer Russell "Hordeland" Brower Leaves Blizzard
Senior Audio Director and Lead Composer Russell "Hordeland" Brower wrote a Facebook post explaining his departure from Blizzard. While he may continue to work for Blizzard as a freelancer composer, his current position has been eliminated thanks to a "sound de-centralization" initiative.
You've heard his music all throughout Warcraft; he composed the main themes you hear on the login screen, as well as many of the notable zone themes.

6.1 PTR - Build 19508: SELFIE Screenshots, Garrison Jukebox Music, BlizzCon Costume Tribute
While the new blood elf models are the highlight of this 6.1 PTR build, there are several other developments we tested when the realms came back up. We snapped some pictures with
S.E.L.F.I.E. Camera
, built the jukebox in game and previewed all the sound tracks, and found a tribute to the 2014 BlizzCon Costume Contest winner,
Grand Empress Pydarter
.

S.E.L.F.I.E. Camera
Photos
We completed
Field Photography
on the 6.1 PTR today and received the basic
S.E.L.F.I.E. Camera
. This is a mission with a 100% chance of success, and it's not rare, so it may be fairly easy to obtain!
When
S.E.L.F.I.E. Camera
is clicked on, it opens a special camera mode. Your character makes faces at the camera, just like an IRL selfie, with their arm extending off the screen.

Best. Warcraft Music. Ever. - Cataclysm's Opening Theme
It's been a pretty busy weekend in the Cataclysm Beta, with the addition of the
Guild Vendor
and a number of interesting
new UI changes
. However, there's one aspect in the development of the new World of Warcraft expansion that's been coming along
wonderfully
and isn't getting quite the attention it deserves - until now! Many Cataclysm zones feature entirely new or completely changed music which I'd love to share with you guys - if you'd be interested?
In any case, I present to you the most amazing World of Warcraft musical piece ever (well, except for
Power of the Horde
- but I'm just biased):
The Shattering
, the 12-minute long epic currently gracing the Cataclysm Beta's login screen. Enjoy!
Thanks
Fewyn
for uploading, I'd have gotten this up sooner for you guys but I'm terrible at making even the most simple of YouTube videos!
