Rogue is easily playable at 200ms in vanilla, at around 300+ it gets very difficult

I think theyā€™re going to have OCE servers but OCE servers will be tied into the US battlegroup or at least have US realms on their battlegroup.

This was bloodlust.

Thatā€™s a problem because theyā€™re going to put in cross realm BGs which means one of the countries will have to play on a higher ping! Iā€™m sure NA players will complain if they have to place on Oce servers / ping!

They already do lol.

They hate playing with Frostmourne players in dungeons. Iā€™ve been kicked several times from dungeons because when Iā€™m the leader itā€™s a Sydney based instance run and they kick me lol.

If you take a look at the release date and times that blizzard posted in their first post on classic release (mark your calendars) there is a time set for A/NZ, I feel like this confirms that there will be servers for us. Also considering that all of their other games have OCE servers there really isnā€™t a reason why we wouldnā€™t get any for classic. I hope this helps :slight_smile:

Keen to see everyone in classic :smiley:

Iā€™m solidly located in the US, but tossing in a like and support post for my fellow gamers down under.

After playing with 30-50ms for so long I could never do 200-300ms againā€¦

Iā€™ve done a double-take on the launch times and theyā€™ve listed Australia which is a good sign, but Iā€™m not sure if thatā€™s just out of decency or if theyā€™re actually going to throw a server or two in for us.

Would really love some confirmation ASAP just for peace of mind. A big part of why I want to get into Classic is for the world PvP experiences and I really donā€™t want to be held back by 250-300ms all the time.

I hope they do tooā€¦ donā€™t get me wrong I loved Black Rock & then Jubeiā€™Thos but locale servers on day 1 would fix a really old omission.

Please give us Oceanic servers with and OCE exclusive battlegroup so we arenā€™t lagged into submission every time we join a BG (simce cross realm BGs are confirmed).

If they donā€™t launch at least a few theyā€™re shooting themselves in the foot. Thatā€™s not a small market, Oceania.

+1 to this. It ruins BGā€™s on Retail to always be matched with US realms and being forced to play on 250ms for the whole game. With BGā€™s being such a huge part of Classic it would be a huge turn away if they decide to stick us with US realmsā€¦

As a player from Sydney who played during classic. please give us OCE servers!

Which is funny because they will stay in an OCE instance server anyway.

Thankfully whenever I do dungeons, I basically carry them as a tank.

Prot warriors are heavily armored dps, change my mind!

Yuuuuup. Thatā€™s what itā€™s all about

Iā€™m hoping for at least one PvE and PvP Oceanic server.

Chinglish confirmed on his stream that there would be OCE servers. Considering heā€™s had contact with Blizz devs in the past, Iā€™m sorta inclined to believe him.

There really shouldnā€™t be a lot of servers. Yes thereā€™s a lot of hype for Classic, but servers with sparse populations are going to be bad because few people will be able to fill 40man raids.

1 NA PvP Server
1 NA PvE Server

1 OC PvP Server
1 OC PvE Server

Something like the above for the different locales.
