Delayed Release

How many guilds were already formed prior to release? (ones that were not formed in beta) Were names reserved 2 weeks before Vanilla?

what

Pay no attention to that I was just talking crazy.

In fairness that would be worth the charge for people coming back to play classic and classic alone. Otherwise it is paying for half a month just to reserve names.

So many people would be pissed off, having already requested vacation time.

Almost zero… so can we just stop thinking the sky is falling???

The realm list will be announced with the early name reserving.

You are completely missing the point. Since now there ARE guilds already forming, they need to all be on the same page BEFORE name reservation. This is not something they should drop on players the day of name reservations.

The EU forum was told they would be released well prior to name reservation. It would be comically short-sighted and irresponsible for them to wait till name res day.

I would laugh so hard. Their fault. In a way, I hope it is delayed. LOL

This is modern Blizzard we’re talking about, not old-school Blizzard.

It will be released on the announced date whether or not it’s done.

Friday August 9th would be Vanilla like…
so freak out if you start the weekend without server names…

not 14 days before name reservations…

Why are you so adamant that it be precisely like vanilla, when I already pointed out that name reservation and already formed guilds are NOT vanilla-like? Really getting the feeling you just want an argument for argument sake.

Prior to vanilla release there were not loads of fleshed out guilds attempting to coordinate which server they would be on. Again, this is altogether different than vanilla’s release and more breathing room for player organization is needed.

Just hope Blizzard is ready for 10+ Million Classic Subs.

Classic is the Future of WoW

It will be interesting how name rez day will play out. What happens if they underestimated the number of servers, even with the buffer of layers? Do they add more on name rez day, and if so will people be able to cancel their name rezs and instead choose a lower pop realm? And then there is the question of whether or not the realm pops will even be shown.

Then why respond?? My point is that people need to stop freaking out over nothing.

Want to know how I will find out what server we will roll on? I will hop in discord and ask… zero notice… we dont need any notice…seriously…

Low quality bait

Exactly. The code is so solid, they didn’t even beta test levels 41-60. The only code that is not solid is layering :thinking:

They also said there would be a stress test this weekend and there was none.

As stated above the stress test was most likely delayed to not take attention away from WF race. Now that it is over I expect word in 2-3 days about that stress test. If i was a betting man, I would guess 1 week before the August 13th name reservation to get a proper estimate on server number.

Who do you perceive as freaking?

Everyone posting about the lack of server names.
