When Blizzard released patch 2.4 for World of Warcraft in March, they brought a plethora of changes to all types of end game play. They introduced new casual daily quests, a new five person dungeon, and a new raid zone for twenty five person play; all of this on a new island off the northern coast of the Eastern Kingdoms called the Isle of Quel'Danas.
Many who play WoW consider patch 2.4 to be the largest and most complex patch to date, sans the actual expansions. It is quite rare for Blizzard to open up a whole new zone in a free patch, and even rarer for them to completely change the raiding landscape (a staple of WoW) by removing attunements and lifting other restrictions.
Despite having a large and successful release of the patch, Blizzard has continued to update the game in with Patches 2.4.1 and 2.4.2. They offer more tweaks and changes that make the WoW community even happier.
Take a look through our gallery for a highlight of the changes we've seen in 2.4 through 2.4.2.

I dunno......I've been playing WoW pretty solidly since beta and I am just burnt out on it. I canceled my sub back in March. WotLK better bring something new to the table, because if it doesn't I think I'm done for good.

...but you will be able to change your hair style in the next expansion. I'll keep my 3 subscriptions open for at least 2 more years based on that, won't you? :)

Blizz adds content slow, the size of the island is tiny, and the architecture is just Silvermoon City 2.0.
plus alot of it was buggy on release, and theyve broken several things with their patching (RAWRRARRRARGH! if you dont know what that means, your not playing WoW right now).
While its an interesting island, the development cycle is just too long, its a big complex patch, but even lotr, vanguard, DAoC, EQ all release bigger patches more often that fix things and add new content.
