It's neat how Blizzard has been able to keep such an old game visually updated.
Just compare one of the original zones with a zone from Pandaria.

While I agree, old vanilla had a very blurry texture pattern to it, it still exists to this day.
Just imagine the requirements it'd need to look something like this:

Hell, the new character models are great too. Very subtly stylized with the same feel of the originals. The artists did a great job on them.

Looks like it could be done using Tessellation and it doesn't even look that good.

That argument always bothers me because EVE is older but they have completely redone the rendering engine since the game launched. CCP don't have nearly as many resources as Blizzard either.
I've got better FPS with increased graphics on WoD then MoP.
It's fucking beautiful.
ONLY REQUIREMENT YOU'LL NEED IS FROM YOUR WALLET

They've done several engine upgrades since it came out.
That sometimes still doesn't help on some raids when the FPS goes haywire along with the lag
I don't even meet the recommended requirements :(

Time to upgrade the toaster.

I never lag, maybe you need to upgrade.

i3 3220 @ 3,3Ghz and a ATI Radeon HD5670. Yes,you're completely right! :v:
I am saving up for a 280x though so that'll be a massive improvement
