i think there’s a rat infestation or something in Northrend. Why dont you grab this Merciless Plunger and go fix the problem… icecrown sewer system is just not up to code… the things they flush could awaken the dead…
did i just write a hook for a better storyline than Shadowlands?
The idea of multiple servers is outdated, if you level on one of the new servers or lower pop, 3 months into the game release, the game will die and you will be forced to transfer. Saying this is a player created problem, and to level on a lower pop server is terrible game design, blizzard SHOULD know better. Layer the realms and be done with these queues, done with the low pop servers like it seems so obvious, I feel like im taking crazy pills here. Blue steel, latigra magnum, theyre all the same look!
I know for a fact they use instance zones in Classic. I agree to meet up with my friend and was surprised that we were in different instances on the same server right next to each other standing in the same place and couldn’t see each other until we grouped up. They have the technology just to add more (instance) servers, they choose not to.
player outrage. demand for new servers. threats to cancel subs by morning.
players afk running into walls. chaos. moderators pwoerless to stop it. queue progressing slwoer and slower.
by end of day 2: new servers. People think this is the solution but … “I already reserved my name” screams the snotty rogue. “why should I have to start over? Lock the servers!!”
ultimately…dead realms is inevitable.
we’ve been here before. since Warhammer launched we’ve been here with EVERY new MMO launch. new World? same story. Classic? same story. Aion? you betcha. Wildstar? yesstar.
Come on Blizzard. you drop all these realms, then make us pay for hour and a half queue times. I really enjoy watching my queue placement go from 590 to 594 to 598 to 594 to 612. this is ridiculous.
There are no fresh servers for the Oceanic region, the playerbase was just asking for a single server
Even if it dies eventually, they can just merge the small pop server to either another low pop one, or a larger pop one
There are a lot of people who want to play this game & have no intention on playing it long term, nobody is denying they will eventually leave
It’s not rocket science, but blizzard only hires people who have degrees in gender studies
Then you can play on an existing Oceanic server then quit. Fresh launch has already demonstrated that more servers wouldn’t have fixed the mega server meta so your point is moot.
At least you’re honest in asking Blizzard to cater to the whims of fickle tourists who have no interest in supporting the game.
