Classic wow was a failure

BC & Wrath defeat the purpose of Classic with how they were introduced. Increasing the level cap, abandoning gear, zones, dungeons, raids, etc. BC and Wrath would have to be released as parallel content rather than as THE endgame content.

Not one of these posts is new, not one of these posts offers any valuable insight, there can’t possibly be this many idiots…:neutral_face:

Realizes the forums are loaded with idiots…yet I’ve contributed to these statistics…:pleading_face:

It’s giant circle jerk of one camp disagreeing with another. What do you expect? It’s either Classic+, BC/Wrath, #NoChanges, and LOL CLASSIC SUCKS.

Tell that to my 1200 queue

Classic could be for everyone though. If the original pop caps were respected and Blizzard implemented faction cap/controls (just like the private server devs did)

Its not like the faction problem wasn’t already SOLVED like 5 years ago by many private server devs. Wake up people. Blizzard knows how to faction balance servers. They are purposefully choosing not to.

Clearly you’re one of those selfish honor farmers. Killing a lowbie in your 40 man raid trying to get to a 50ish dungeon makes you such a winner.

Heroic dungeons were not rewarding. The loot that dropped in them weren’t better than what you’d already have. If you were a new player coming into the game late you couldn’t jump right into the latest raid you had to do most of the old content to get attuned to do the latest raid. Kara needing a lot fewer than all the other raids was a big mistake.

Wrath started the AOE dungeon rush that continues today.

Classic was a huge success… for Blizzard. They were pleasantly surprised to get the income ey did from it… but it being used as a retnetion tool to keep modern wow players subbed (and buying store items and services) was the real cash cow.

No, not really.
Cata is not part of classic cannon.
Wrath is.
There is Warcaft I Warcraft II and Warcraft III, which takes World of Warcraft to the frozen throne.
Cata and forward is something else, not part of the classic trilogy, so perfectly justifiable in having Vanilla, BC and Wrath, and nothing after as far as the classic universe goes.

Not necessarily.
You could do both.
Stock parallelled servers, and you could try a modified hardmode progression server, where the beginnings are retuned so they dont replace previous hard won content but instead require it.

I would definitely create a new toon on a full on trilogy progression realm and play the whole thing through to ICC 25 heroic, and enjoy getting pounded to death in the now harder retuned entry points to the expansions.

I realize that would be a dev time investment to do it right, due to a lot of re-tuning and possible invention of a few mechanics to help keep things in check, but i would play it indefinitely

Even vanilla takes place after warcraft 3, your argument doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to anyone who knows the story line at even an amateur level.

You guys are awful. Most people are playing and loving Classic. It’s only you forum hounds making endless complaint. The sooner those of you who don’t like Classic get tired of not getting whatever it is you want today and leave, the better the game and community will be.

How can it take place after then when no one has ascended the frozen throne yet, Sylvannas is still alive, and no one has gone beyond the dark portal yet?

Wut? Arthas did in WC3:TFT

:cactus:

read quote i am replying to
Yes Arthas did IN Warcraft III

person i am replying to said WoW takes place after WC III
and i asked how so being no one has yet ascended the frozen throne, among other things.

I think the biggest issue is you cannot capture lightning in a bottle. its over, it already happened. There will be no new content and people will sit in capital cities. GG. If you find enjoyment in playing classic, then by all means play the crap out of it. If not then move on and find something else to play

This is some church

You know what’s interesting? Private servers were an overwhelming success

Classic wow was an overwhelming failure

New record for stupidity

Failure.

Sees the largest boost in the frachises history aswell as still has more players than bfa.

“Failure”
