Took the Stormwind portal and was taken to the Forbidding Sea in fatigue range. If I had not flown to shore quickly, I would have died. I saw the same thing happening to a few others. I haven’t tried it for horde yet but just wanted to give a heads-up. (And yes, I did submit a bug report).

Well if they’re gonna have the game in a buggy state, at least this one is kind of funny.

Reported in the bug forum awhile ago. They’ll likely have a hot fix announced in a couple of hours.

Be happy you didn’t step off a cliff on the other side of that portal.
People, you forget, you click it. I just put it up.

This was hilarious! I expected to be dismounted in the Mage tower… instead I was hovering over water 500 ft from the Badlands shore 
Gets even worse. The SW portal from the Panda shrine drops you from the sky over the lake behind undercity LOL

I’m just baffled on how the code even gets broken to do this

I imagine someplace they are compressing it too much and it’s oozes out the sides of the zip file. That’s not going to be good any why you squeeze it.
As someone who has been coding since 2002, and building PCs since 1995, I can assure you. Somewhere, there is a single missing character that never compiled in the code, and now they are searching 4million lines looking for it

Kinda makes sense in a funny way that there might be portal accidents. Lucky he didn’t end up as part of a cliff face.
Horde portal seems to be fine
Yep their issues cost me 800g cause I could not get back to my corpse. This is the worst state this game has been in a long time. Blizzard just rushing anything out and waiting for us to find all the bugs.

Ya. I tried to mage teleport to SW and d/c and died. My dumbass ran all the way to my body to instantly die again then obviously had to rez at graveyard. like 744g gone.
Yes happened to me as well.
Just small indie company things ya know?
Tip: use any of the hearthstones to get out of there… I did that and it works fine.
Instant flight form ftw
