Absolutely connect US and EU realms…
Just as soon as they introduce a flag for LFG that allows you to exclude EU and OCE players from seeing/signing up to your groups.
Hard pass. I’ll take 6 hour long queues over dealing with unplayable levels of MS
I absolutely vehemently object to this concept. There’s a vast cultural, and sometimes language difference between the two cues and the biggest complaint from the other side. Is that people who don’t speak English often end up in the regular cycle. This is not specific to the EU, but it is predominant. When you play in the UK, you could end up with somebody from Italy or France where English is not their first language and maybe not even a language they speak. Also, the cultural difference includes a competitive nature to win at all cost and not work with your teammate. It would absolutely destroy PVP… Not that I care… But it would completely hinder additional efforts for mythic plus and other options. These two server regions, need to stay separated for a reason if not multiple reasons.
You okay there bud?
Imagine the complaints if there were that many different languages being spoken in dungeons…

It’s really dependent on the time. People frontload their playtime. Tuesday night everyone rushed to get things done, and then it picks up again on the weekend, but the middle of the week is not a good time to run LFG. I mean you can still get groups, but it’s more time, and there’s probably a lot more people leveling characters right now since end game progression is kind of halted because people are geared up.
For sure…just look at all of the complaints for the 1 that we have to deal with.
I cant imagine how they thing adding 4 or 5 more(?) would work
US is already played by people from all the americas and even further countries such as China, statistically speaking EU players are more likely to know english than Latin American ( i lived in both continents), people understand that the common language in the world is english and that is not different for the EU
Shuffle has always had terrible ques. And yes that’s very normal.
It’s going to have long issues and then people will complain about that.
Play a healer DPS getting 30 minutes queues in shuffle is par for the course
ye i know healer has been a problem in shuffle Q since season 1 DF, i remember but just because a problem has been going on for a while it doesn’t mean you should grow complacent with it, we pay subs for a reason!
Shuffle destroyed PvP. I hate it exists.
Agreed, it’s ruined any semblance of fun in rated PvP where it’s relegated to a quick in and out mid season to pickup an elite set or two on this end.
At least it’s more tolerable than BG Blitz I’ll give it that much, which I had the misfortune of experiencing over the weekend. Never in my life have I seen a pack of people so disinclined to do any semblance of team work, nobody talking strats, nobody calling incs.
It’s literally yourself and 7 unattended children given a bag of lollies and a 2L bottle of red cordial.
Don’t get me started on people who haven’t at least geared up before queuing into it… It aint that hard to get a bloody token set, free pvp wep and a couple of crafts before jumping into the rated versions.

Will never happen.
You want more people in pvp? Slow it down a bit. Have it give rewards relevant to the rest of the game.
Blitz gets better at 2.6k mmr
That said most wow pvpers kinda mentally snap when they see what the skill level for arena would be if it was actually popular. It was never meant to be 1% of the population competing to be .05% of the population.
players stopped playing due to the companies devs at the time such as the woke bs pushing in every game from california, and because of the lawsuit and that absolute destruction of wow lore the blaming the players. but to be fair they have been trying to correct those as it did lead them to near collapse leading to microsoft buying the company.
That is quite the little fanfiction there.
While I think this is mostly incorrect ( I am sure some people quit over it but I doubt many).
There is a real issue of the EU have draconian speech laws compared to the US where US players could get EU players in trouble with their freedom.
i forgot the destruction of server culture. but if they did combine EU and US servers the company trying to pander to EU rules and laws will end up with the game collapsing US side.
