Yay the hot fixed some npcs… but running the game now is worse than launch day. Billion dollar company but cant do a task simple for the actual game.

Microsoft owns them, they are a small indie trillion dollar company. Keep up.
I don’t want to be nasty, but it makes me wonder if they remembered to upgrade the server hardware performance to keep up with the increased demands that are obviously being introduced by the latest expansion. Also, if the number of players is increasing, they need to upgrade the server’s hardware and software abilities with respect to the network traffic increase.
From my point of view, it seems like the server has become more and more sluggish since they first started introducing any of the pre-expansion software.
It appears the hardware was fine, the issue seems to be a lot of poorly executed updates mid launch week that borked all the separate systems.
They know exactly down to the 10s of people who is going to be logging on, when they are online, how long they play, and what kind of adult videos they like. Pretending they are “overwhelmed” is just a way to cope with years and years of bad code breaking every time they “fix” something.
This must be some of that Goblin engineering crap.
Indie company. They don’t know when to leave stuff the heck alone.
“fixing” what isn’t broken, and somehow breaking things
Glad we pay a monthly fee for this ![]()
I don’t think they really have server hardware like they used to. I believe every “server” is just a virtual server in the cloud now.
It Start’s with Matt. Matt is a recently promoted manager of IT at Blizz. Matt is a fairly new hire from the intern pool last summer. and Matt is hungover…
