There are already more portable and more powerful devices on the market, and have been for a couple years. There are handhelds that run full versions of Windows 7, have 3g and cost about the same as an iPad. So basically you can struggle through an MMO on the go already.
Warhammer, just for all their "revolutionary ideas" being such disappointments and then proceeding to make all the same early game design mistakes that WoW made in terms of useless talent specs and available gear designed only for one spec of three. I wish the devs and the programmers all the best but when I see them struggling I've gotta wonder how they didn't see it coming.
Unfortunately Chuck Norris appears to take himself far too seriously these days to do anything like that. Aside from the fact I don't think Blizz wants to associate themselves with his political ramblings.
Not to rain on anyone's parade but why is everyone so convinced that the new LFG tool is going to result in it being easier to find tanks? Yeah there will be more tanks and healers in the pool, but also more groups looking for them. The overall percentage of tanks and healers is not going to change. I think people need to drop their expectations a bit or it's going to be a big disappointment.
We already have cross server battlegrounds and it's not uncommon to be in an AV without a single tank out of 40 players.
Tanking, and being a tank in general needs to be made more attractive and fun if the trend of constant "LF1M tank" is going to change.
