At the very least Blizzard current business model is to use already created WoW versions and tweak them for different experiences over and over.
This is just one idea they could run with that could easily bring in the subs for a year or more depending on how much they are willing to try it.
If Blizzard wants an idea man I’m it!
Tbh wouldn’t have to pay me much, but I’ve been playing since open beta 2004, and I’ve had a lot of time to o think about how many different ways they could tweak the game to make massive changes that would bring in people to try old versions of games.
I appreciate the love.

I loved this video. I play with pvp on, I prefer to die like this than any pve death (or worst, disconnect death)

ok great, so you can run around on the HC servers with your pvp flag on problem solved
That’s absolutely not the same experience as a server that had pvp forced upon people as they enter contested zones, and does not constantly have PvPers engaging in what they love.
Saying this just shows you’re just not into pvp. Thanks for your input, but if you can’t understand that flagging which is optional, versus contested zones, which is about as simple a concept as any, then you really don’t understand the topic and what PvPers want.

My issue is that if Blizzard gives an inch spinning up a HC PVP server and limits it to one per region (so 1 in NA, 1 in EU, 1 in TW and 1 in KR) then the crying will be that it was located in the “wrong” timezone.
So nah let’s skip that.
Flag up on one of the available servers and have fun.
if you think HC PvP is so viable, go make a vibrant HC PvP addon community if it’s big enough, you’ll get your official server. (hint: it will not be very big)

Good thing Blizzard doesn’t make plans based on whether people might cry or not.
You wouldn’t be playing clearly.

Oh good.
You know it’s true. This thread is proof of what I stated. People would cry about the “wrong” timezone.
Don’t care if Blizzard does or does not create a hardcore pvp server. But people will still cry that it’s not good enough so even though I’d prefer to miss that it would make for amusing reading.

blah just HC with open BGS and deaths in BGS dont matter. More a side game and gives ability to get pvp gear and weps
If death in BGs is permanent, you’re not going to be getting much in the way of honor gear.

No Chance in hell I would ever play this, but it would be a pretty epic experience for the really sweaty people.

Not really, all the Classic PvE servers are called “normal” it’s what PvE servers had always been called until retail changed over to the war mode thing. Reason being, you are able to voluntarily flag there.
Best of luck getting the servers you desire though.

I would take my blood pressure medicine and give HC PVP a shot. I’m sure I’d quickly realize that it’s not for me. But the game’s not all about me so, if other people would like it then I think it’s an idea worth pursuing.

Idea for “fair” HC PvP —
Make all town guards elite and maybe increase level of some. In Vanilla, flightmaster’s were made elite when players kept killing flightmasters to grief. So this change wouldn’t be unprecedented. Just an idea.

there’s nothing epic about quickly leveling a team of rogues and then camping the contested zone quest spots 24/7
What if the Server had 10x XP gain, Faster Flight Paths, Higher Level Guards with Stealth detection and the Territory you entered determined who was forced to flag (In STV players level 30-42 would be forced to flag as an example) where as you could still as a high level roam it but not engage with or fight the war there but act as a scout, and if another high level appeared they would be flagged at your level.
