Activision is abandoning wow?

Don’t worry…once AWC ends and the druid they’re rigging it for is crowned, we may see a balance patch!

It’s a hefty accusation, but I’m just (partly) kidding!

Edit: And paladins. Rigged as hell.

This Expansions PvP balance is balls, and it amazes me how little the devs seem to give a crap.

You’re an important person, you matter. Please don’t think I’m condescending you. Every life is important and I value yours highly.

I don’t know you, and I don’t respect you or your opinion. Have a nice day either way. :slightly_smiling_face:

Also, if you insult someone, generally people will think that you’re angry or upset. Now you know.

I want to let you in on something you might not know, the trend you speak of isn’t a trend, it’s the status quo, forums are for complaining :man_shrugging:

they weren’t working from home in BFA.

yes, that is EXACTLY what people want.
any time a change is made, people stomp their feet and cry “nobody asked for this!” (even if people did ask for it)
players who seem to think they need to be consulted prior to any changes happening.
a forum search for “nobody asked for” returns a lot of results…
eg:

i don’t know why people think they need to be consulted prior to changes, but i find it such a weird thing to say.

What sort of “support in the game” would you want? I think we have moved a long way past GMs turning to say hi and fix our problem. Last time I remember that happening was back when I started in early Wrath where a GM arrived in my chat to shift me from a ‘constantly stuck in death’ situation. The days of GMs being around in the game have long since gone. This isn’t anything new. I mean, it would be nice, but can anyone actually see it happening?

A brief glance over wowhead shows a number of adjustment patches over the last couple of weeks and I’m sure I recall a blue note somewhere saying they were still working on character improvements. Sure there are specs that are still bad (lookin’ at you, Survival Hunter); I’ve pretty well given up on expecting 3 usuable hunter specs until they do a complete revision.

Yes, there are a few bugs. I agree they need to up their game on fixing things that are broken in a much more timely fashion. Especially the rotten lag on Oceanic.

The only thing I don’t like is how support has become more advisary rather than getting involved in your tickets when there is an actual glitich in the game.

I first noticed this during BFA early on during visions when your character could fall through the floor, or die on the flight with the orb for unknown reasons and couldn’t release or get resurrected. No credit for the 10K resource or the key(?) that took you all week to farm. Even if you provided proof with screenshots etc.

IQuest is bugged? Doesn’t matter if it took 4 weeks to complete (as it was a dungeon/raid quest) because the handin NPC isn’t spawning or it glitched out. Abandon and retry it.

Also remember when I was newer to the game and used to buy the odd raid boss or dungeon run on an alt and rarely I’d be scammed out of a good sum of gold. GM’s used to reverse the trade after a ticket got put in.

Even the other week I did a quest I couldn’t hand in on the NPC (I think it was Soulbind with Dreamweaver) and I put a ticket in. They told me to check wowhead and said they couldn’t help me due to the volume of tickets. GM’s used to see the issue and just give completion credit immediately. They eventually fixed it of course but it was in my quest log uncompletable for a few weeks.

GM’s used to interract with players individually to resolve the issues they had. I really wish they would bring this back, to a case-by-case basis rather than a scripted set of people in an office who I feel can’t really help.

This is my only gripe about the state of the game. There are some aspects which I like and some I dislike but it’s still WoW at the end of the day and it’s more addictive than most drugs lol.

Yea, Ion needs to just pull it.

The ripcord, that is. (probably doesn’t actually exist)

Exactly. I have 2 RL friends I would play WoW with from time to time. The only one that hasn’t unsubbed of us 3 is the one playing Sub Rogue!!! Go figure! He says he is having fun in Shadowlands.

No bleep! I guess he is having fun, he is a sub rogue and has literally been running around dumpstering nearly everyone and anyone he wants in under 1.5 seconds. It’s may be ‘fun’ for these OP classes, but it is absolutely cancerous for the health of the game as a whole.

I have unsubbed and have less than 2 weeks left. Our other friend has unsubbed and his sub has already expired. He is out for good and has not renewed and is not coming back. He is now devoting his free time to other hobbies. We all considered ourselves mostly semi-casual players. So Only the sub rogue is left and even he has said, without his other 2 friends playing now, it isn’t as fun and even he is likely to unsub as a casualty of losing the friends he played with. You can start to see the domino effect here.

… Dear diary…

Classic forum that way. —>
