Okay, we tried the darn LFG tool you made and it’s horrendous. Between elitism and just lack of replies this system can kick rocks. I’d rather hit a button and be added to a group ready to do the dungeon. I don’t mind walking if you want to get rid of auto-teleports to the dungeons. You’ve made it WAY more difficult to find a proper party that isn’t hard-ressing or GDKPing.

Bring back? What is this RDF you speak of? I haven’t heard of such a thing in Classic WoW.

It was a system put in the game back in 2009 during Wrath of the Lich King. This is Wrath Classic so obviously it should have RDF, since the whole point is to make an authentic recreation of how the game was back in the day.
Glad I could help you out on that.

In Wrath of The Lich King we had a fun tool called “random dungeon finder.”

If Blizz wants to kill megaservers then they need to remove one of the incentives for people stacking into megaservers, namely the ease of forming groups. Removing the megaserver advantage in groupfinding will convince some to transfer off of them.

They should just make RDF cross-realm as you said remove the need for mega-servers.

Will keep saying this, if you bring RDF I will move off Faerlina.
Please let me go to a RP server man.

It’s wild that between the choice of RDF and Gearscore gatekeepers, blizzard sided with the Gearscore gatekeepers.
It’s so simple, if you don’t want RDF then don’t use it, let others enjoy it.
Gonna be a lot of people getting rejected from groups with nowhere else to turn. It’s sad.

Activision Blizzard could simply designate various realms be exempt from dungeon finder due to how polarized the playerbase is on this, but since they have not (for now) it is so obvious that the decision is rooted in pushing the sale of the lvl 70 boost and maintaining the anti-dungeon finder vanilla/BC classic sub’s going into WotLK launch (Q3 end).
By manufacturing inconvenience to levelling they incentivize players to buy the lvl 70 boost. Additionally, this will also increase average user time played from all the running around - a number retail dev’s love to reference to save their jobs as sub’s crater expac after expac. Nobody with a life outside of WoW wants to waste hours of their limited playtime running to dungeon entrances and finding groups, only to deal with all of the drama (gearscore, replacing RQ, etc).
Many against dungeon finder don’t want casual’s to have an efficient way to progress, gear, or access content. Ironically it is this mentality that results in the toxic environment that they champion to be opposed to. Any thread on the forums about dungeon finder is filled with their condescending remarks. Imagine screeching to maintain an archaic status quo where the average player has to spend much more time to accomplish less… Anything to be ahead of someone else, even in a video game I guess…

They could simply do a lot of things, but the one thing they should have done is released the game as it was for the maximum authentic experience. Nobody should be coming to Classic WoW with the expectation of playing anything other than what it was in the past.
If that isn’t the game they want to play then they don’t belong here.

No. There is no need for the automated dungeon finder.

You make a good point. The social fabric essentially created the mega servers.

Rumor is, Brians still immersed, looking for a WC tank to this day.

I don’t think their reasons for not having RDF is anywhere near that sinister. It’s simply that they’d be effectively managing another version of the game when they can barely manage this one.
Even the players simply want their preferred version of the MMO experience.

I mean, yeah, they want to sell the boosts. That doesn’t mean RDF x-realm isn’t bad for the game though.

Yes! They had two options imo. Understand that the classic version of the game had a ton of warts and release an “up to date” version of the game, or stick to no changes. While I disagree with no changes at least I understand it.
This bastardized version of wrath is meant for who exactly? I’ll never understand it.

Yes. There is a need, and a desire, for the automated dungeon finder.
I’m still convinced it’s that they simply don’t have the manpower to set it up for Wrath Classic, and obviously don’t want to admit to that.
