@abstract copper It is on the World of Warcraft website. Been their since the announcement.

frigid fractal
abstract copper
#

I never knew that

#

Only one NA server is below high

verbal crater
#

new servers are being listed but offline

#

servers openend but 3 char limit was not lifted

#

:/

tawny hamlet
#

yeah i cant make more chars either

glossy pagoda
#

same

wheat edge
#

same here

half obsidian
#

I can't either so somethings bugged on their end

verbal crater
#

had to delete on previous realm

#

but now I lost the name I was after

abstract copper
#

it is not 1300

#

it is 1000

verbal crater
#

this field is dynamic it changes according to your local time

#

we're 13 minutes past this time

tawny hamlet
abstract copper
#

14 minutes late, oh no

#

give em time

glossy pagoda
#

they've had it

verbal crater
#

they should have lifted the limit BEFORE opening the realms

#

if they delayed both it would be okay

abstract copper
#

The one thing I know about game design

#

is that it almost always goes wrong

vocal whale
#

blizzard lied

glossy pagoda
wind saffron
#

It's kind of a good thing they did not increase, so new players have a chance to get a spot, and if you want to get your name on the new, delete the old so it's free for someone else.

#

/unpopular opinion?

#

That, on the other hand, is very silly they still can't handle the server load of releasing something =P

wheat edge
#

just worked for me

#

good luck all!

wind saffron
#

yep it went through.

vocal whale
#

too late, blizz lied

abstract copper
#

No they didn't

vocal whale
#

yes they did, increase was not available at the time they said it would be

normal jetty
#

anyone able to help with why my mates wow classic isnt showing up?

abstract copper
#

So it was a couple minutes late

#

doesn't mean we need to take the piss

#

@normal jetty when on the launcher you have to select it under version

normal jetty
#

@abstract copper yeah it wasnt showing up

#

we fixed it now tho

#

ty anyway

vocal whale
#

they lied, an advantage was given to other players

abstract copper
#

Who?

vocal whale
#

think it through, who was able to select a name and who was not. there, you have your answer.

abstract copper
#

That's the same as literally the entire history of wow

#

If you didn't care to get your name then you should have been paying attention.

#

I switched to Old Blanchy

#

Human Priestess

vocal whale
#

i did not switch, end result they didn't get me to do what they wanted, because, they lied

abstract copper
#

Then you didn't switch

#

oh well

hexed finch
#

Classic is out? khadgarface

abstract copper
#

Not yet

#

I might go Bigglesworth, not sure

solar totem
hexed finch
#

Jesus

#

Why tho

#

There isnt feasibly enough time to play all those characters,unless you not only nolife the game but also play like 1hr per character each

sturdy trench
#

Just so no one else can take the name.

hexed finch
oblique pawn
#

can we just keep classic open untill it becomes playable?

ocean cipher

viral basin

hey, got a question, My friend wanted to try classic, but where me and everyone can choose a "version" to play, he can only choose between WoW and PTR

maiden river

And I've been in the main menu for half an hour

oblique pawn

Nothing wrong with playing an old game you enjoy

unborn geyser

Spent 3 hours on character screen to make sure I wouldn't be in queue. Then I get in the game for 3 minutes, it disconnects me and suddenly I'm in a 19k queue. RIP me 😄

grizzled juniper

#

30 minutes in, Oceania servers still have 60+minute queues.

#

5K+ queues.

#

It's a good stress test for them, but Blizzard have underestimated us AGAIN.

karmic cobalt
#

Yeah baby CLASSIC

viral basin
#

"we didnt expect this many people" again

abstract copper
#

Would you?

viral basin
#

well, werent most realms "full" even before release?

abstract copper
#

Yeah, and they added more. They tried to get people to move off of them but it didn't work because people are stubborn.

#

realms aren't so easy to make

austere urchin
#

There would've been concern about loss of name reservations.

unborn geyser
viral basin
#

you think its worth moving to low pop realm now?

abstract copper
#

I don't care what realm I'm on

viral basin
#

austere urchin
#

Well... I'm kinda in.

#

Just switched to Normal server.

I had been logged in for 3 hours before launch to avoid queue, I get in to play for a few minutes and it disconnects me. Then I'm in a 19k queue 😛

grizzled juniper

ahaha

#

Ok ... I take it all back .. .all the jokes about how all 12 of you were going to love the Classic wow servers.

vocal whale
#

i was at 57 minutes for about 15 minutes, now i am at 107 minutes

maiden river
#

Are all the other servers full like whitemane?

unborn geyser
#

At one point I was at 14k and it said estimate time: <1 minute

lone bough
#

Instead, I'd like to make some fun about how dozens of classic noobs won't be able to finish quests because there aren't any quest mobs to kill

maiden river
#

I'm at 21k for whitemane

grizzled juniper
#

Ezz to fix with groups

vocal whale
#

poor management and lack of resources made available

grizzled juniper
#

Says you

#

now less complaining

maiden river
#

Blizzard had months to plan this

grizzled juniper
#

I mean guys

#

If you are playing on a full server it's much your issue, blizz are opening realms non stop and still

#

Being stubborn isn't blizz problem tbh

maiden river
#

What do you mean?

grizzled juniper
#

What I mean is

vocal whale
#

people defending blizz is funny

grizzled juniper
#

That if you have big issues to try and enter an already full realm, why not simply go to another realm

abstract copper
#

Honestly, think about it

#

out of the x people that are clogging up the realms

#

how many will be here in a day?

#

a week?

grizzled juniper
#

It's not like you are going to loss your progression

abstract copper
#

a month?

grizzled juniper
#

But let's all blame Blizzard

abstract copper
#

They have a perfectly fine amount of space

maiden river
#

I mean it will take you so long to lvl anyways you won’t lose anything and give it a week less ppl will play it

vocal whale
#

they planned for this right, layers etc?

unborn geyser
#

My thoughts too, Rocket. I didn't really want to go to one of the new realms cause I fear they'll be abandoned in a month

abstract copper
#

But the weak need to weed themselves out first

#

Of course they planned for this. It may have been more than they were expecting

#

BUT THEY'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR 15 YEARS

#

I think we can give them some credit

grizzled juniper
#

The fact they can open realms on demand is that they are taking this too seriously

#

Even if in a month they will be deserted

vocal whale
#

it is their business! good thing it doesn't involve life

abstract copper
#

It's a game, does it really need such priority?

grizzled juniper
#

You are just in denial tbh

#

I am still in a long queue and I won't change though

vocal whale
#

90 minutes...

grizzled juniper
#

#

do these guys have problem with queues tho

#

#

this time is fun

#

from 11 to 2403 min

#

then down to 1 min

#

then back to 420

#

and now its at 15

vocal whale
#

Imagine being the person responsible for this

abstract copper
#

it's a loading bar, they don't actually mean anything

#

They're just estimates

grizzled juniper
#

Which is fun

#

Also rodb, this is almost the same of WoD's times

#

well

#

WoD's was worse

#

And that shit crashed you

I have seeing people just playing decently

grizzled juniper
#

At what level it starts to get really long?

#

20?

abstract copper
#

it was like...

vocal whale
#

so have the said how they managed to open the new realms without raising the cap?

abstract copper
#

2 hours to get to level 5?

#

more than that really

#

No rodb, because nobody cares

grizzled juniper
#

Pst Rocket

#

Was it like this back in the day?

abstract copper
#

Yes

#

not this bad

vocal whale
#

You don't, don't judge our world by your standards, you will be wrong every time

grizzled juniper
#

I wonder if there is going to be a lagforge

#

Yeah, but he isn't the one complaining without a reason all the time

vocal whale
#

they have screwed up every aspect of this

grizzled juniper
#

Says you

abstract copper
#

No, they really haven't

#

This is completely normal for a wow launch

grizzled juniper
#

BfA was like this? Do you remember?

abstract copper
#

and it wasn't this bad back then because there weren't nearly as many players

azure kite
#

its Classic... this is the way it was back then. But the servers crashed often

eternal cradle
#

Yea, patch Tuesdays would always fubar the game for a few hours

abstract copper
#

Oh yeah... the servers crashed like all the time

azure kite
#

was always fun getting to the character select screen and then boom... crash

abstract copper
#

I still don't know what class I want to play

#

I really don't want to heal again

grizzled juniper
#

I am going paladin

#

I like to heal

abstract copper
#

I also like to heal

#

but modern players are the worst

grizzled juniper
#

Can't really fix that tbh

azure kite
#

class in classic will depend on how much you plan on raiding

grizzled juniper
#

It's just

#

Things that you should learn in home

fallow stump
eternal cradle
#

Finally in!

fallow stump
grizzled juniper
#

Gratz

fallow stump
#

I WANT IN

grizzled juniper
#

What server is it?

azure kite
#

"modern" players will drop out of classic pretty quickly and go back to retail

fallow stump
#

I personally plan on playing both 🙂

abstract copper
#

I'm also scared I won't be as good as I used to

grizzled juniper
#

Old

azure kite
#

I expect that around half of the population will stop with classic after the first 6 months

#

but hope I am wrong so we can keep healthy pop servers

fallow stump
#

ya'll playin on Herod need to dip out so the rest of us mf'ers can play

grizzled juniper
#

Probably they will merge

abstract copper
#

I am on Pagle

azure kite
#

yeah, but merges honestly suck when they happen

grizzled juniper
#

Or they will open free

azure kite
#

but I would rather have servers merge than do that cross-server crap

grizzled juniper
#

free

#

...free

#

char transfers

fallow stump
#

char transfers 🤢

grizzled juniper
#

Wat

abstract copper
#

I just wanna play with people

eternal cradle
#

Oh geez, I forgot quest dialogs use to scroll before you click a button

abstract copper
#

But it looks like I'll be alone

vocal whale
#

There will never be crz in classic

abstract copper
#

@eternal cradle it's under preferences

grizzled juniper
#

Ye

abstract copper
#

display I think

grizzled juniper
#

You can set it to auto

abstract copper
#

instant quest text

azure kite
#

and don't forget to choose 'auto-loot' in preferences 🙂

grizzled juniper
#

I mean that effect of scrolling is

eternal cradle
#

Yea, I just forgot it was like this by default

grizzled juniper
#

nice

#

but

#

after the 10th quest its starting to get tedious

abstract copper
#

auto loot is useless when you're lagging so hard loot won't even show up for a minute

grizzled juniper
#

Also dont forget

#

to activate

#

Action Cam

azure kite
#

lol... yeah... that would put a damper on looting

grizzled juniper
#

When did group loot start?

#

WoD?

#

or Legion?

abstract copper
#

mop

#

I remember when it came out in mop and everyone was like "ohhhh"

grizzled juniper
#

really?

azure kite
#

considering I started at 7800 an hour ago... this isn't too bad

grizzled juniper
#

Not forget this

abstract copper
#

Cata is when people started questing by pulling large groups of mobs and aoeing them down

#

mightve been wotlk but I don't think so

grizzled juniper
#

You kno

#

I wonder if Classic might kinda make people go back to old 60 level cap

abstract copper
#

so auto loot got added in mop and it became so much easier

azure kite
#

pretty sure that was Wotlk when that started

abstract copper
#

You know what I'm looking forward to most in classic?

#

Being fucking done

grizzled juniper
#

15th years

#

15th damn years

azure kite
#

Cata zones weren't really good for that

abstract copper
#

In retail you're never done

grizzled juniper
#

that this game has been up

abstract copper
#

your character is never fucking finished

#

there's always more heart to grind

#

more titanforging

#

morebullshit

#

I wanna be done

azure kite
#

pizza time and then hope I'm logged in by the time I'm done

grizzled juniper
#

im in 6788

abstract copper
#

I want to get my character to max level, get max level gear, and then just be done.

#

I don't want to have to keep logging in day by day to keep up

grizzled juniper
#

That's how you keep people playing though, by giving a way to grind

abstract copper
#

I am going to play the game anyways

#

Just not on that character

livid scarab
#

man i want to play wow classic but i dont have playtime more xd

grizzled juniper
#

den pay

abstract copper
#

It feels like chores. "Did I log in and do the daily stuff with character a? check. B? check." etc

livid scarab
#

no money feelsbadman

grizzled juniper
#

Then don't plai

livid scarab
#

i dont play

#

but i want xd

grizzled juniper
#

And yeah, it kinda feels like so

#

But again, even if there are one kind of player that doesn't want it, there are other players that do like it

#

I wonder if that's why they released classic

#

Besides the 15th aniv ofc

livid scarab
#

for sure

grizzled roost
#

How difficult is it to tank in vanilla

azure kite
#

if I remember right, in the beginning before you get geared enough to take a knuckle thwap... its a pain

grizzled juniper
#

If I read correctly

#

Some bosses were inmune to taunt

abstract copper
#

You had to be on top of things 100000%

azure kite
#

but long term it was worth it to be a tank

grizzled juniper
#

You had the power

grizzled roost
#

So should I continue with two handed axe as a warrior ?

abstract copper
#

making absolutely sure not to lose aggro

#

It's up to you dude

grizzled juniper
#

It's a personal desicion tbh

#

if you want to try tank go for it

grizzled roost
#

I mean I tank in retail but I haven't really been playing it

#

and this might be different right ?

grizzled juniper
#

Tanking in retail is easier---well

#

Sometimes you can get overaggroed

#

and getting aggro back can be really difficult

#

if your dps's are being asses

#

but I suppose it's the same

azure kite
#

I would recommend a shield unless you have a good healer

abstract copper
#

Tanks in classic don't generate passive threat if I remember correctly

#

or at least not nearly as much as retail

grizzled roost
#

well I would like to do ragefire chasm when I get to the level but I would like to level up to the point where I'm in the barrens as on the stress test I played shaman

#

which I was told you could tank in vanilla as a shaman

abstract copper
#

...

#

It..

#

It didn't really work that well

#

it exists

#

but is poor

grizzled roost
#

Ok well is the tanking as a warrior good endgame ?

abstract copper
#

Yes,

#

warriors are the best tanks I believe

#

@azure kite knows more than me but he's eating

azure kite
#

yes, warriors are the best for tanks. Paladins can be decent tanks in Classic, but not nearly as good as a warrior

#

and no, druids aren't good tanks either. They are similar in tanking ability as a Pally would be

grizzled roost
#

Is it good for me at the start to hold multiple weapons in my bag ?

azure kite
#

the thing about classic to remember is that each class truly had their own specialties and while they could fill in for another class, they were never as good as that class. Unlike retail, where you can fill multiple roles

abstract copper
#

Shamans aren't tanks

#

I'm sorry

azure kite
grizzled juniper
#

What about warlocks?

azure kite
#

as a tank? catno

abstract copper
#

Shamans tank better than Warlocks

azure kite
#

Warlocks don't tank... their pets do... and when that dies... RUN!!!!!

grizzled juniper
#

How much damage does a windfury proc?

azure kite
#

no idea... I'm not up on damage stats

#

use the Twitch app for addons

rapid onyx
#

Anyone got a guild for Bloodsail?

grizzled roost
#

are guild benefits in vanilla ?

grizzled juniper
#

nope

abstract copper
#

32 min

deft nova
#

Is it still like hours the queue?

#

anyone get on yet?

vocal whale
#

yes

deft nova
#

to getting on or the queue is still hours?

vocal whale
#

i have been in the q a couple hours and am at 47 minutes

hardy trail
#

yt links allowed ?

vocal whale
#

and i have another toon sitting in a starting zone with no players

cunning garnet
#

I've been at 47 minutes for about 3hrs

hardy trail
azure kite
#

I'm afraid to ever log out

cunning garnet
#

It kicked me off Firemaw... I went there thinking "its a newer server why would it be overloaded" cue to Firemaw being the single most overloaded server in eu

#

All my friends on the other hand did not get kicked out

#

So I've been listening to them playing for the last ~4hrs

#

At this point I turned to alcohol

stone girder
#

come oooooooon why dont they let us to open the retail... as we wait... for que

#

till the fix the servers or something atleast

cunning garnet
#

they dont?

stone girder
#

no..

#

it dc u.. -.-

cunning garnet
#

Just enable "launch multiple instances"

#

Oh

#

nvm then

viscid ivy
#

does blizz want you to choose with version to play

#

are you saying i cant fish in both fames at same time

stone girder
#

u can play retail and classic at the same time...

#

cant

viscid ivy
#

ok

weak prawn
#

Apparently the Spanish community decided last minute that Firemaw would be their server, and they swarmed it en masse

cunning garnet
#

I fucking moved out of spain

#

And now they are on the server I chose

#

Wow

#

-.-

#

nvm got carried away

#

Can't get rid of them 😄

abstract copper
#

that's a bit much...

#

This is a family friendly server I believe...

whole tartan
#

What are like must addons to include?

abstract copper
#

I mean, you don't have to play with any of them

#

basically I don't know, check the twitch app

cunning garnet
#

You're right rocket, sorry.

#

Got carried away

abstract copper
#

I am very much enjoying my nelf warrior so far

abstract copper
#

if only female trolls looked that good in game

faint flicker
#

Trying to find just a bar addon for classic, like Bartender. Cant find anything thats not part of a package though, anyone know of one, or even if Bartender got retroed?

indigo venture
#

all this art really makes me wish theyd remaster tier 1

abstract copper
#

Nah

#

let the classic players have it

indigo venture
#

normal players have it too lol

#

Im talking about doing a ToS style update for a new tier

abstract copper
#

eh

weak prawn
#

Sadly that probably won't ever happen again since they kneecapped tier sets

true sentinel
#

fucking kill me

#

finally got trough queue

cunning garnet
#

So I didn't imagine

#

server just being gone

#

Glad I've waited through 16000 players to get kicked out of queue at arount 500

low wedge
#

is there like realmpop site but for classic ? to see balance and shit

cunning garnet
#

That would require API access and/or an armory

#

So I doubt that

low wedge
#

ahh right they hiding behind classic being social expirience

undone estuary
#

only 641 more minutes to go...

cunning garnet
#

Classic had an armory, it just is not online rn because it's literally worthless atm

vernal magnet
#

i want to know what greens the highest level player has

#

tyvm

cunning garnet
#

yw

vernal magnet
#

TYVM

cunning garnet
#

vernal magnet
#

eu servers are coming back on right now by the way

cunning garnet
#

Yup

vernal magnet
#

for anyone that got kicked off

cunning garnet
#

So I need a server that is not Firemaw or Shazzrah

vernal magnet
#

shazzrah

cunning garnet
#

Very much undecided... don't wanna get stranded on a ded realm... or the EU streamer realm

vernal magnet
#

what eu streamers even

cunning garnet
#

Preach, some method peeps and every other aspiring streamer

true sentinel
#

how are there already dead realms

cunning garnet
#

And I am so not gonna deal with that.

abstract copper
#

There aren't

cunning garnet
#

There will be

#

Never said there are

true sentinel
#

oh

#

also, rip EU world servers

vernal magnet
#

oh no world server down

cunning garnet
#

Thats the whole issue I have :D

I know some servers will be dead in the water and I wish I knew which so I can dodge them

low wedge
#

just evade all the servers that says LOW

cunning garnet
#

Considering Golemagg atm

true sentinel
#

me and my intire guild went golemagg

low wedge
#

that and mograine

#

should be fine

cunning garnet
#

That's what I figured so far, too

true sentinel
#

the only reason i didnt go shazzrah was that there was a bit more people there

low wedge
#

its true 😄

#

top 5 relams always survive

cunning garnet
#

Shazzrah will be full of twitch chat fanbois and that just literallly ruins the whole game

true sentinel
#

i dont think it changes the game mutch

low wedge
#

twich hoes gonna get bored after a week

#

😛

abstract copper
#

Heres the thing

cunning garnet
#

You never had streamers on your realm did you?`

true sentinel
#

but i would still rather go golemagg

abstract copper
#

they'll all leave

vernal magnet
#

ive gotten lots of positive people on shazz so far

low wedge
#

im sure blizz gonna give transfers

#

in a month or two

cunning garnet
#

Sure but I will most def. not pay 20 bucks to get away from them 😄

true sentinel
#

eu servers are still dead

cunning garnet
#

dead again*

true sentinel
#

how long do you guys think this will take

cunning garnet
#

They were up and running for a few min

vernal magnet
#

theyre still up for me, but world server is down

cunning garnet
#

For some reason gehennas went up to high from low

vernal magnet
#

so you cant log into chars

true sentinel
#

yeah, i mean world

vernal magnet
#

how far did you guys get so far

#

i got to almost 11 on my priest

#

did some profession work

true sentinel
#

im level 3

#

couse i just got past queue

#

and im playing really casual

cunning garnet
#

11 on warrior

low wedge
#

tnx to queue simulator i got 2 toons at 2 servers at lv6 both at same quest in same zone 😄

cunning garnet
#

Then I disconnected and waited for 4hrs or smth

true sentinel
#

i think the world server is back, the loading screen isnt getting stuck in the middle

cunning garnet
#

yup

#

well loading stopped at 7/8...

true sentinel
#

yeah

#

rip

#

hopefully i dont get disconnected for not logging in

cunning garnet
#

Now it says world is down again^^

vernal magnet
#

gives me more time for junkfood

cunning garnet
#

It is really mindboggling this whole thing went the way it did considering the stress tests ... lul

abstract copper
#

Not really

#

they're set up for the amount of players they expect to stick around

cunning garnet
#

That's a really bad excuse to flub the launch so hard

true sentinel
#

do you guys think many people will stick around

abstract copper
#

I do think a good amount will

vernal magnet
#

yea

#

definitely enough for a healthy playerbase

true sentinel
#

i know i will

abstract copper
#

I will

cunning garnet
#

Hard to say how many... I just know there's not much other things I'd rather do so I will be staying

true sentinel
#

i think atleast 1 million players will stay

cunning garnet
#

Considering there are not that many more live players that sound dubious

vernal magnet
#

i know for sure ill be playing this until cyberpunk/elden ring

#

and then after playing those again

true sentinel
#

ill probably play classic for years

cunning garnet
#

How can you put down an mmo to play a sp game? Just play it on the side, it's not going anywhere ^^

vernal magnet
#

you underestimate how my time divisioning works

true sentinel
#

my goal is to have every class at lvl 60

hallow raft
#

I won't stay on classic for months
But I'm having fun with it so i guess it will last some weeks

cunning garnet
#

I suppose I do

vale dove
#

hello

cunning garnet
#

sup, whatcha selling?

abstract copper
#

I said my reasons before

vale dove
#

dank memes and a old wow vet thats interested in the server population stats

abstract copper
#

no clue

vale dove
#

was hoping someone could point me in the right direction

cunning garnet
#

So are many people and there are none

abstract copper
#

Just pick a server and join the queue

cunning garnet
#

Because they are literally changing on an hourly basis atm

#

Server are spiking from low to full and back to medium within hours

abstract copper
#

I'm on Pagle, alliance

cunning garnet
#

Eu servers are still pretending to be hunters with the whole feign death shtick going atm

unborn geyser
#

Yeah, it's great. I'm glad I waited in queue for 7 hours for this

cunning garnet
#

Hah yeah

abstract copper
#

I got in instantly

unborn geyser
#

Just keeps saying "World Server Down" after 2 minutes stuck in loading screen

cunning garnet
#

Well because you're not on EU are you @abstract copper

unborn geyser
#

My BF is in, though, so I know it's up

abstract copper
#

NA

cunning garnet
#

See, they are actually working (as in online, not as in good 😄 )

vale dove
#

anyone play on westfall?

#

how far are u rocket?

cunning garnet
#

Got in on EU golemagg

winged tapir
#

does anyone know if theres any prior notice to them adding new servers/realms? cuz it just seems they add them instantly without prior notice ive been trying to get my name

lean timber
#

Are all worldservers down in EU?

#

Or is it just some realms?

cunning garnet
#

should be fixing itself soon for you @unborn geyser

unborn geyser
#

I hope

true sentinel
#

eu is up

unborn geyser
#

They're not down, Whiskers, but there seems to be issues with logging in

#

I just got in!

vernal magnet
#

im in

#

shazzrah

vale dove
#

alright about to make my character

#

takes suggestions

native ether
#

Please dont make a warrior,enough is enough

abstract copper
#

???

#

I see very few warriors

#

mostly hunters and rogues

native ether
#

Really?

vernal magnet
#

ive seen 60% warrior and rogue

abstract copper
#

also it's crazy to me y'all didn't make your characters a long time ago

vale dove
#

Druid, shaman, hunter, or pally

abstract copper
#

Shaman

vale dove
#

i just bought it, saw it being played on twitch

#

i got work in the morning

#

for a new job

#

i no longer care lol

abstract copper
#

Ah

vale dove
#

been waiting for classic for a while

abstract copper
#

Well, I'm going to sleep

vale dove
#

night

native ether
#

GN

#

make a pally, go Alliance

abstract copper
#

Shaman

#

The best class

#

That I'm not playing because...

#

Didn't feel like it

native ether
#

Pfff I never liked Shaman. They are strong tho,I have to admit

abstract copper
#

I play a Shaman and a mage on live so I went warrior for classic

native ether
#

Warrior everywhere!

abstract copper
#

It's not like there are many classes to choose from

#

I've mostly seen rogues and hunters

native ether
#

I cant decide if thats a good thing or not

abstract copper
#

It's a fine thing

zenith phoenix
#

Im excited to jump into the game but i must wait a week since im ordering a new laptop. I have no experienced WOW at all since 2006. So im glad to start off as a noob again and relive some old days.

native ether
#

Good luck Tenfold and have fun

zenith phoenix
#

Thanks! Ill do my best considering im sick of pay2win apps these days. I hope to become an asset some day.

winged tapir
#

will there be any prior notice if they release any more new servers?

#

or is it just release same time they post it in the forums

native ether
#

Probably in the ''Breaking news'' pane on the left

winged tapir
#

i saw this one

#

but it just added the new servers the instant it was posted in forums

#

and im trying to reserve my own name :/

silver estuary
#

is classic or last version better for new players?

austere urchin
#

Classic is on virtually the last version.

#

1.12.

#

But it's been released as 1.13.

green folio
#

Anyone else can't access their characters

normal rapids
#

yo

#

how come i can't log into classic?

#

i come up to my relm and then from there can't go any futher

green folio
#

Same issue

cursive rock
#

Is elvUI updated for classic yet?

grizzled juniper
cunning garnet
#

yes @cursive rock

#

I went and made food, disconnect and now golemagg has a 6k queue again

#

fml

potent pebble
#

Oce at the moment is completely messed up

#

waited for a couple hours played for a tiny bit then server crashed and into 10k queue

#

ty blizz

native ether
#

Guys have you never been in a lunch be4? It's the same shit since TBC

#

Every single time,the exact same things

#

Launch*

cunning garnet
#

Yes that's why it's getting sad at this point.

#

The fact they fuck it up regularly realls is no excuse to me.

cunning garnet
#

I enjoy how the estimated time jumps to 2 min for a few moments every so often while being at over 1,5k queue

potent pebble
#

It seems like when the estimated time drops to sub 10mins people in game start dcing and then it goes back to the regular pace

true lintel
#

do you guys know if you can ghost run from place to place? like I'm trying to get to stormwind as a night elf, I'm in STV currently, do I need to keep corpse walking or can I just run(float) to the next graveyard and rez there...

radiant glen
#

No, (except if things change in the latest version of Vanilla), if you try to rez in another graveyard, you will go back to the one where you were when you died

true lintel
#

time to leave a trail of skeletons across STV, about 5 feet apart.... lol

cunning garnet
#

You could also just quest in your designated areas and not do that lol

true lintel
#

I'm trying to get training with swords....

radiant glen
#

Why not going by the Wetlands, then Ironforge and use the tram ?

true lintel
#

nah

radiant glen
#

Its shorter by SVT?

slim wharf
#

im trying to post a screenshot but discord keeps telling me it's explicit ._.

true lintel
#

Theramore - Ratchet - Booty Bay - Duskwood - Elwynn

slim wharf
true lintel
#

I'm starting to think I underestimated the size of my "kill me" bubble though

#

HAHA

slim wharf
#

there we go.

#

anyway what did yall name YOUR nelf hunters?

radiant glen
#

Yeah, I see, but I would have done Auberdine, Menethil, Loch Modan, Ironforge, SW but anyway, you arrive at the same place 😃

native ether
#

Instead of creating new realms they should use the extra servers in order to increase the capacity of the existing ones

austere urchin
#

Increase capacity? What is this? bajoWtf

radiant glen
#

It’s easier to add new servers than increasing the capacity 😄

true lintel
#

or people could just, NOT pile onto 1 server "because there's a big twitch streamer on it"

radiant glen
#

Yeah, that’s another solution, but harder to set up 😄

native ether
#

@true lintel That's a significant reason why they do so, or maybe their guild is on that server or whatever. People are gonna pile up anyway.More servers arent a solution , bigger servers are

true lintel
#

ok, it just launched, "oh no, the server is stuffed, oh wait we haven't hardly done anything, let's pick a different server" but then that would be too hard

cloud spoke
#

I named my nelf hunter Luo because he's running around without gear til he gets green gear

Thank you @native ether

chrome drift
#

where can i find the alliance/horde ratio on the servers?

low wedge
#

you cant

#

since horde is flavor of the year

#

horde will be majority on all servers i guess
