Going to leave this here for reference

Queues will be 12 to 72 Hrs at release with 12 Servers (Current Server List).

Edit: If I am wrong I will come back to eat Crow!

[Metrotoxin-tichondrius]

[Scarlétt-amanthul]

Are you legit gonna catch a crow and eat it? Pretty brutal

[Trollreview-bonechewer]

On Herod/Whitemane? Or All?

No way will they allow queues over 4 hours. Even 2 would be a joke.

[Revenite-proudmoore]

Straight hyperbole; I hear lemon is good on poultry.

[Nubling-jaedenar (Nubling)]

and people will wait in those queues because only a few realms have the bonus incentive of everybody’s playing on them.

people can be like “oh yeah, all the realms are full so it doesn’t matter”, but some realms will be 10x fuller than other realms.

Realms.

Theres probably only two servers for US.

When you make a mistake and are forced to acknowledge it humbly.

That’s not going to happen.

Yuck. Think of the parasites and diseases.

Bookmarking this. See you after launch!

Crows are friendly and intelligent individuals. They recognize faces and remember you. If you’re kind to them, they’ll befriend you and even bring you shiny presents sometimes!

Please don’t eat our crow friends!

[Gullione-blackrock]

There’s no way in he double hockey sticks that Blizzard would allow this. Sitting there telling a paying customer “too bad” is what they’re trying to avoid with layering at the very least. Major difference between server issues not allowing logins vs. them just not caring about queues.

You’ll be eating lots of crow. Better go catch a few.

[Nubling-jaedenar (Nubling)]

layers encourage longer queues, so they’re pretty fine with it considering we got layers

[Gullione-blackrock]

You should be getting some crow ready too.

[Cròw-aggramar]

While I do hope the queues aren’t that long, I would really prefer not to be eaten. Can we just settle with a burger or something?

That’s exactly what they are doing and why this Topic is here.

@Kaivax

We suggest that players, especially those on the Herod realm, consider creating characters on Stalagg. We expect that other PvP realms in this region will otherwise experience significant login queues when Classic launches.

[Gullione-blackrock]

I disagree, they’re doing the opposite, opening a new server and keeping communication with what’s going on. No one has invested any sort of time in a new character, no guilds are formed in game, anyone can move to a new server to lessen queues if they want.

[Felslayer-muradin (Felslayer)]

I don’t know about 12+ hours, but they will be brutal for certain on Herod and probably Whitemane. Issuing a blue warning about queues on those servers is pretty telling. I wouldn’t expect more than 1-2 hours on most of the other servers.
