Need a Date/Month at least. Feb or March. Just something.
They are waiting to see if 8.2 brings back subs.
They don’t want BWL and 8.2 competing.
February is more likely than January

Sure. Anything for you.

Incorrect.
That post clearly states WSG and AV are coming December 10th.
Then it proceeds to state:
Blackwing Lair and Darkmoon Faire are coming in early 2020.
Followed immediately by:
We’ll have an exact timestamp for this content unlock to share with you in early December.
Obviously they are talking about BWL and Darkmoon Faire NOT BG’s as they very clearly gave a release date in the first sentence.

We need more avenues for loot. Loot drama tensions have been getting high of late.
Even the emerald dragons would be an adequate but temporary distraction. But I know nothing about lore and how they fit in, or when they should. Their loot looks meh for the most part.
This:
Was a new paragraph, it’s obviously talking about the primary subject of the post. The tidbit about BWL was an addendum to the main content of the post.

probably do tbh, were u here for launch when 10x more people stayed subbed to classic than what they were prepared for despite having all the data and tests to base their decisions on they were still wrong even though everybody was constantly telling them they were wrong?
Just read the post for the first time. Delimicus’s comprehension abilities are off here… (that’s the nice way of saying it). It’s clearly referring to BWL+ timeline since the bg dates are 1) ALREADY GIVEN and 2) the placement of the sentence reflects the prior paragraph, specifically the very sentence before it…

Sorry Kittens, you are incorrect. The second paragraph in Kaivax’s post references the “content unlock” as the BGs: “Nonetheless, like many of you, we can’t wait to charge into some battlegrounds, so we’ve detached this content unlock from the plan we previously announced.”
Kaivax goes on to say in paragraph 3: “We’ll have an exact timestamp for this content unlock to share with you in early December.”
Clearly the content unlock that they intended to give an exact timestamp for in early December is the battleground early release. They had only given a broad initial timeline for the week of 12/10 , with no exact date. So its pretty obvious that they are referencing the BG unlock. BWL remains unknown and slotted for early 2020.

Why would that be the case? He posts the exact time stamp of the AV and WSG release and then says, “oh, we will release the time stamp that I just gave you for this content in early December as we are releasing it…”. I worry about reading comprehension and context clue understanding of people sometimes.

yeah they really should announce bwl release date already. I’m tired of complaining about it not being released yet. I’d love to be able to complain about it being released too early.

The post stated “Warsong Gulch and Alterac Valley will open in WoW Classic the week of December 10”
the week of December 10 is anything but an “exact” timestamp. Haha
Exact TIME and DATE were announced with the drop of the patch notes:
"With scheduled weekly maintenance in each region, we will update WoW Classic to version 1.13.3, which includes several updates to the game. We will deploy this patch with weekly maintenance starting at 7:00 a.m. PST (10:00 a.m. EST) on Tuesday, December 10. <<<< This is the exact timestamp of the content unlock. Timestamp does not mean “week of” like y’all seem to think it does.

Well they certainly think so, its how we got retail!
Listen, it’s not my fault that your reading comprehension is at a low level.
I imagine Blizzard won’t make any announcements regarding future phases until the current drama has been addressed. they’ve been too silent and passive about responding to the battlegrounds issues / Oceanic queues .
They need to answer and address other problems first before further pissing off the classic community IMO.

BWL Release date announcement is reliant on 2 major factors:
-
devs getting back from vacation on Jan 6th
-
If WoW Classic has fallen beneath top 5 twitch streams

Blizzard is probably cutting their losses since these same players would quit after Naxx.
If you were so bored that you actually let your sub lapse, you’re not coming back.
And you probably aren’t going to get into BWL if you do.
Having said that, though, it would be nice to have a couple weeks heads up at least.
It’s almost Jan 10th where people will be opted to re-sub or let it drop. No announcement or release means lost players.
