Does anyone know if they upgraded the expansion to DX10?

No.

Just greater viewing distance and improved shadows.

Are they considering upgrading to DX10? It would be cool if they would have a "advanced client" for those gamers up with the times. I mean I think the graphics haven't changed in 4 years, right?

Keeping in mind that WoW is not a photorealistic title, can you elaborate on which types of effects you are looking to see in the game ?

Transparencies, light rays and advanced shadowing, better looking outfits. Reflections, whatever...

The nice thing with WoW is that it runs great on most kinds of newer hardware, even lowend stuff.

I rather have a bit less realistic gfx than a resource hog like AoC was and that game didn't even run properly on a max specced out Macbook Pro when it came out. And that was without any AA or other screen candy..

They could do what EVE Online does. They have a basic client (which is the old one) and a "premium client" which is DX10.
