All alone in Beta

PVP server.
/who shows 1 other person in Org.

I played since this morning at 11 and I have seen maybe a total of 20 people.

is this layering?

I don’t think so. I saw only 28 people online from lvl 30 to 40 earlier. Feels so dead. I wish they would invite more people.

You got Right Click Reported into your own layer.

Edit: Oh, wait, this just in… Horde is dead, Alliance Rules!

Its “People are tired of beta and also a new retail patch came out.”

It’s been artificially stuck at 40 for how long? That’s probably it.

I don’t think they want classic beta to compete with 8.2 so I can’t see them sending out a new wave of invites.

New retail patch. I’m sure classic will also experience this after it launches anytime a new big patch or xpac comes out. It doesn’t matter what version of WoW you play you’ll reach a content drought eventually. One of the positives of the sub working for both retail and classic. Gives you the options during that drought.

Beta is just stagnant right now. Can only do so much at 40

They’re really desperate to keep people playing retail.

Nope, its the same on PVE. No new invites means its cut off… Level cap means not continuing to play so… No new low levels, and no one playing at cap. Pretty sure its intentional.

Thousands of people on this forum would love to be playing classic beta right now. If they aren’t inviting… its on purpose.

There are plenty of bugs that have been reported with classic. I suspect they’re prioritizing fixing them and aren’t in search of even more bug reports yet lol.

You have classic all to yourself but in 2 months things are gonna get crazy it’s like the calm before the storm.

Beta is currently representative of what you’ll have if there is no layering on live servers and everyone is spread out.

Layering allows for overstacking of individual servers, so that in content droughts/the initial rush, they’ll still be populated.

I am actually shocked they did not shut it down…

people are playing the new patch :smile:

Can you imagine the outrage if the next wave of beta invites will factor in the number of hours a player has spent in post 8.2 BFA.

Also sadly, I bet many people will really do it just to get a better chance to get into beta.

They just need to increase level cap at this point. I’ve been 40 for what seems forever. Actually, I doubt I’ll do beta again unless they do premades or something. I want to not get burned out before classic.

If I was invited, I’d be on every day! WTB beta invite!

This is just Blizzard not giving beta access to people who want to actively test Classic WoW. Sad but truth.

I greatly disagree…
