If the Zombie event remains as is, we need compensation

[Zanielle-barthilas]

On a side note they have shut down their own event in Ice Crown. People have figured out that zombie exploding on top of the boss infects everyone and prevents them from killing/looting the boss.

On my server at least the entire Ice Crown event is now on perma lockdown, none of the bosses can be killed because it just takes one suicide bomber to wipe every boss. I’ve already run every character through it so I’m fine but others might not be so lucky. It is a waste of an event (even one as mundane as this one) due to some derpy thoughtless design decisions. They could have had both the zombie event AND Ice Crown if they made a few better decisions, but you now, Blizzard …

No, you just discovered that its not the problem your are pretending it is.

Just dont quest in the parts of the game the event is.

You can literally play in any expansion, for a week it wont kill you to level in tbc wod mop etc

The infection can be brought through portals. Places I’ve personally seen affected yesterday:

Boralus
Legion Dalaran/Suramar
Shrine of the Seven Stars
Shattrath

(Only major cities, can’t list all the small areas I found)

Because their buff totally protects the questgivers, right?

Most quest givers and NPC’s are not able to turn if you can kill them. Others they made so strong or gave a healer so they can’t be killed. So I call BS too since I’ve actually exploded and attacked inn keepers, quest givers, etc and just watch them go back to “work”. Maybe if you played as the scourge you’d know their limitations.

Going through a portal doesn’t remove the debuff - but when you turn into a zombie? Nothing happens other than some red frame around my screen. I have no zombie abilities, nobody tries to attack me, I’m not flagged, etc. So not sure how people are bringing infections the distance they are.

Join any group in the group finder tool and be transported to a new server.

Except if there IS downtime and it only takes place when most NA players are asleep, it is still a problem.

[Hizami-dentarg (Hizami)]

we have 24 hours in a day. So again I have yet to see this issue you speak of. /shrugs/

feel free to hit us up with some screenshots at any point.

…i’d like to actually be able to see some of it.

[Disglain-wyrmrest-accord]

Agreed. I’ve not seen even a fraction of this endless zombie griefing.

I’d really like to.

[Xiruna-dalaran]

If people don’t like dailies is Blizzard breaking their TOS?

[Svelte-maelstrom]

@Maizou-proudmoore

Except there was no downtime in the 6 hours I was running 18 characters through Nathanos.

So you want compensation for 6 hours of gameplay and successfully getting a Nathanos kill on all 18 of your characters? Compelling…

You sure are getting around to a lot of places with the game being unplayable and all…

[Gallows-korialstrasz]

And then last night I didn’t see any zombies out there for two hours.

It’s almost like I have engineering wormholes on my main.

That doesn’t apply to the level 19 mage I’m trying to level.

Hardly a side note, they’re discovering what the OP is saying, and what I’m adding, that forced pvp puts ordinary players into involuntary contact with a sizeable number of the weak egos that pvp.

[Normercy-aggramar (Normercy)]

Oh… so you ARE playing this unplayable game. I get it.

[Thimintz-bigglesworth]

You guys just hate rpg huh. God forbid the veil is torn and zombies are running rampant.

I realized the game itself is fine but players is the issue.

[Hizami-dentarg (Hizami)]

I live on East coast. My server(mains) shows different from yours. During the day no zombies only at night and when I’m asleep is when zombies seem to be most active. So no not a problem.

I do no want people to know I’m typing a reply.

I am not a fan of this either, I just open a wordpad and type on there and then copy/paste it here.

[Shaie-silver-hand (Shaie)]

Oh, that sucks. I’m sorry.

@Maizou-proudmoore

The infection can be brought through portals.

I saw some posts where people made mention of lots of death in Halfhill, of all places. Why on earth anyone would go THERE to spread the infection is beyond me!

@Gortys-thorium-brotherhood

but when you turn into a zombie? Nothing happens other than some red frame around my screen. I have no zombie abilities,

I’m pretty sure you should have some abilities. I’ve seen several posts by people who have turned & they listed, “Bite, Claw & Explode” as the abilities they had. Perhaps an addon is blocking your vehicle? That’s how people are able to infect a bunch of others at Nathanos or the IC WBs - they use “Button 5 - Explode”.
