Blizzard sitting on there hands!

WoW Classic Cataclysm Classic Discussion

Dear Blizzard,

Long time player, a first-time poster about the future of classic wow!

I have read a number of posts regarding merging servers, class shortages and the random ideas you come up with like attunement removal etc etc. I would like to find out why these suggestions are not being implemented or at least some real real non BS feedback with out every lame excuse under the sun, It seems you are just sitting on your hands or are we still in the land of #Nochanges! while you think and re think and overthink a solution…and then it never gets fixed.

Well we are not, we are way past #Nochnages for example BT attunements were removed (not everyone is happy about this change but I think it will get better as time goes on, people will just start researching people’s logs before they invite)

1. Attunement removal | Bit the bullet

Why do we still have attunement requirements for older content just bit the bullet and remove them too! why does Onixiya still require a massive chain but BT doesn’t! If your going to remove one remove the other please!

2. Server Merging | needs to happen!

I play on the only PVE server on the Oceanic cluster with nowhere to go but to a US server. My server feels dead, with bearly anyone to pug normal/heroics with on the weekend or even a kara is hard to come by without buying a tank!

Like you did back in the day cluster merge servers so we can all have a healthy population across each server. Having names with our realms in them, if they are so worried about people losing names.

3. PVP/PVE Transfers | Let’s move forward

Surely we are done with PVP and PVE levelling difficulty and can move to a system that seems to work for retail WOW. Let us move from PVE to PVP and vice versa to play with more people! - You need revenue then this is a great way for people to move around.

4. World PVP Button | Help us help them

If you merge PVP and PVE reals, Introduce the PVP button for Classic. Allowing PVP on/off and bonus for activating world PVP (XP, rep, loot, farming mats (I switched to PVE because I was sick of getting ganked by a level 50 while I was 36 for over 6 hours!)

5. Implement Dual-Spec | We have all been wishing for it since TBC was released!!!

This would allow such a huge advantage for raiding guilds, PVP and just in general dungeons to have the flexibility for all those specs to have an additional healer or tank.

6. WOW Classic Mastery | Be Bold, go crazy

-I have no issues with WOW sessions but I feel this is Blizzard’s chance to really go out on a limb and try, test and play with things.
-Leveling time in the mastery is still too long. I was keen to play and raid but I stopped at level 36 or something and just couldn’t be bothered anymore. I wanted to play the end game without the levelling ( I’ve already done it a number of times)

7. WOTLK | Thought I would ask!

While I’m here I would like to ask for a few things for Wotlk (fingers crossed)

  • Account-wide achievements
  • Account-wide pets, mounts
  • Account-wide trasmog add the retail trasmog system
  • A Better Raid LFG system
  • Mass loot

Everything in this list has already been implemented in retail in one way or another we are just asking for this to be brought forward a couple of expansions. Many of these things have no impact on gameplay but more allow us to enjoy and make use of your systems and improvements that work in retail!

Thanks for listening.

Pips

Not to be mean, but Blizzard isn’t listening.

This entire post is literally you asking for everything from Retail to come over to Classic. The original reason so many wanted Classic is that… THEY DIDNT WANT RETAIL ANYMORE. They didn’t want account-wide crap, or removed attunements, or even LFG! LFD/LFR removed the social aspect entirely! No need to talk when you’re just there to run in, spam spam spam, leave, and just queue for another! The ONLY thing in your post that makes sense is dual- spec. That’s it.
I don’t want all that other garbage. I want CLASSIC. Which means BEFORE they made the massive changes that made the game unsocial and gave almost zero reason to ever leave the city. Before the huge 1-60 vanilla zone changes, before LFD (which wasn’t until the very end of Wrath), before the huge changes to talents trees(which was Cata/Mop).
The changes brought with Cataclysm was the beginning of the end. Over 7 million subs were lost that first year.
Lastly, Bliz doesn’t read these forums. They don’t even CARE about their own employees, so what makes you think they give an Orc’s green derriere what YOU want to see in Wrath Classic? Bringing all that would… wait for it… make it NOT CLASSIC!!

Exactly the mentality that gave us Retail today. Except in place of dual spec, it could be any feature. Multiple times a million and you get what we have today. Assuming you want the original experience (and not to make it better), If it wasn’t in the original expansion, it doesn’t belong in the classic remake - better or not.

You don’t get to genuinely announce you want true Classic, but then say you want dual spec.

And so the cycle continues. We’ve been on the Retail train for many months now. These things will eventually get implemented into Classic the more people ask for it. Just yesterday I made a post about how Classic Era, ever since TBCC, has been diverging from its original behavior to incorporate Retail or TBCC-style behaviors.

These things you mention will most likely get implemented unless there is massive pushback from the players because, like you say, we’re way past #nochanges.

Messed it up already being able to buy a level boost TBC.

Who are you to say? Nobody.
LFD/LFR: affects everyone
Account-wide whatever: affects everyone
Removal of right-of-passage rewards: affects everyone
Dual-spec PER class: affects no one, just the character.
Character-specific quality hurts nothing. Meanwhile, LFD, remove attunements, making things you have to work for account-wide, etc
Oh, you don’t wanna grind again?
Go. Play. Something. Else.
Too many have lost the idea of what replay-value means.
To be clear, I want Wrath Classic. Pre-LFD. There were MANY quality-of-life improvements in that expansion that still kept a lot of Vanilla/TBC flavor and didn’t hurt anyone. Wrath was arguably the top time for WoW, as it seen the highest subscriber numbers. (that we know of)
Blizzard expanded servers because of the huge hype at Classic release and TBC Classic release. Now, they need to do damage control and start merging servers keeping it low for those who choose to stay in Vanilla or stay in TBC. Then move everything else forward for Wrath Classic.
Go talk to someone else you think you might have ‘authority’ over. Not in my house, cupcake.

Asking for changes near the end of an xpac makes no sense. You know it won’t happen. Waste of time to ask.

As for some of the changes you’re asking for in Wrath, no thanks. Not everyone wants them. I like keeping my characters separated by what they’ve actually accomplished. You would need a massive backing by the population to get a change put in, otherwise you’re going against what the masses want.

Lastly it just sounds like you want retail, so why not play that instead if you want those amenities instead of changing what the whole point of classic is.

14

You’re absolutely right. Not having it is affecting me negatively, just like the OP.

15

Because they completely rearranged the talent/spell/abilities system.

If retail were to lose LFD/R, DS, and all its equivalents, and then implemented in classic, even you still wouldn’t want to play retail any more than I do…

And I seriously doubt you would stop playing classic just because these features were implemented.

16

And in a nutshell, if all these features were implemented and the players against all this quit as a result…

Good riddance.

You are right. I probably would, but at an extremely casual nonparticipative rate.

The lack of dual spec and lfd is the reason that many play classic now at an extremely casual non-participative rate.

I just want a button to toggle new models/textures/animations client side. I was just hoping for a visually remastered classic experience. The game itself I’m happy with.

I wish SE would do the same for FFXI.

I like how these changes will “make Classic into Retail”.

Funny. I don’t see:

  1. Talent Rows
  2. Remodeled World
  3. Convoluted ‘borrowed power systems’
  4. “But wait, there’s more” when it comes to Arch-nemesis
  5. Crap story
  6. Uninteresting characters
  7. Sloppy character development
  8. Turbo to Victory LFD with Randos
  9. MORALLY F-ing GREY ON EVERYTHING
  10. I play 10-D Chess as I gigabrain-strategize
  11. We’re going to do Star Trek TNG type moral observation stories. But better; drunk
  12. Nipples.
