Just go play retail already!

[Ravinar-westfall]

from the hordies crying about queue times to the people begging for duel spec or some other QOL change i ask you: Why aren’t you playing retail? its the version of the game that has everything you want in it and more! why are you here? Why are you doing this to yourselves? this version of the game was made for players who believe that all those QOL changes you keep hammering on about are what ruined the game! for your sake and ours just go play retail PLEASE!

[Notglinda-pagle]

Might I suggest you take a break from the forums?

[Akimbank-area-52]

This is a really brave take and I commend you for being so forward thinking.

You do realize that there are substantial differences between Retail and Classic that go beyond queue times, right? This is the most straw-man, brain-dead, and not even interesting take we’ve had in a hot minute.

[Ysz-windseeker]

But but but,

Their change doesn’t impact the game in any way.

@Notglinda-pagle

take a break from the forums?

Yeah, I should. I’d rather be playing the game, but I’m stuck at work. “Working”.

[Zealous-arcanite-reaper]

Dual spec didn’t ruin anything.

[Tzunomi-sargeras]

Nostalgia.

See the thing is there are loads of great things about retail and some game design choices and nostalgia factors in TBC people like.

If they made a version of TBC where they buffed the raids so they were an actual challenge and gave players dual spec I feel like you’d see way more people enjoying the content.

The raids in classic reward loot like participation awards. As long as the raid has a pulse you will clear everything.

[Fayld-westfall]

At this point I hope they implement dual spec just so I can read the howling on the forums when they do. The amount of angst spent on this topic is already comical, but if they implemented it the number of “I R Quit” post tears will be delicious.

I remember one time Glinda took a break from the forums.

[Ysz-windseeker]

I’m not sure what the devs are working on, but it might not be what they want to be working on.

Lots of things at lots of jobs are usually screwed up, because the company bigwigs demanded it.

[Ravinar-westfall]

I’m fine with classic plus servers as long as they keep them separate from true classic servers. a list of servers for those who want changes and a list for those who don’t sounds like the real solution to all of this.

[Obliterated-mankrik]

Very brave, stunning, logical take. You are right, why am I sitting here wanting things like dungeon finder, dual spec, etc when retail has all of that and MORE. Much much more. It even has a completely different talent system, a completely different class system, and well, okay it’s a completely different game. But it has a couple features that I want, so it must be what I should want to play, right??? I mean it has the same name, almost, and both games have orcs.

Thank you for opening my eyes OP. Brb, gotta go wash my eyes out with some bleach.

[Glinda-blades-edge]

No, you don’t.

[Veshzi-mankrik]

Holy smokes now she has crazy blue demon eyes and stuff…

Lay off the Chic-fil-A is best answer.

[Capzielennil-yojamba]

nah not retail but am going to ff14. just leveled my mage to 70 and experiece tbc leveling. wow community seems to suck even more then before. but at least the forum is good to read lol so many complains about tbc is funny.

@Ravinar-westfall

this version of the game was made for players who believe that all those QOL changes you keep hammering on about are what ruined the game

All of them? Because I remember just as many threads calling for dual spec in original BC too. Clearly it was a problem then too

@Ravinar-westfall

Why aren’t you playing retail? its the version of the game that has everything you want in it and more

Because while it has everything I want it has more things that I don’t like. The few good changes don’t make up for the dozens of bad changes

@Veshzi-mankrik

I remember one time Glinda took a break from the forums

I think glinda reported me one time for calling the playerbase a bunch of autismos lol

[Veshzi-mankrik]

@Enigmuh-mankrik

autismos

1. Luckily Glinda is not around anymore.
2. Basically using the term spergs is the same thing, and it’s why I don’t use the term.

[Holystripe-pagle]

@Ravinar-westfall

queue times

oh no…shame on them wanting to play the game!

@Ravinar-westfall

begging for duel spec

oh no…shame on them for wanting to fill in raid comps or have fun off specs w/o needing to spend 100’s gold a week!

@Ravinar-westfall

some other QOL

Oh no…shame on them requesting features that were proven to be highly beneficial to the gameplay as a whole.
Godforbid we get hairstyle changed this expansion!
Godforbid we get original TBC LFG.
Godforbid we get an actually good version of AH

@Ravinar-westfall

Why aren’t you playing retail

Who says we aren’t? TBC and Retail are 2 vastly different games, with Pro’s and Con’s to everything.

But also, lmao, hypocrisy at its finest.

Can we get real vanilla servers please?

dungeons and raids in their un-nerfed state so MC doesn’t get cleared on the first week. BG’s in their un-nerfed state so we can actually pvp and have more then one viable option to rank up. Vanilla like population caps so faction balance doesn’t become a server killing issue and so i can farm herbs at some other time then 2-4 in the morning!!! no layering so people can’t exploit it to hell and back to: cheese pvp encounters, get world firsts, get rare crafting mats and reset raids a…

Please increase herb spawn rate

Can’t believe I’m asking for this. I use to be a very hard line #nochanges kinda guy but at this point i think its time we admit that battle is lost. You created megaservers blizzard but didn’t adjust the spawn rate of resources to accommodate. I believe it is far past time that you did. So I can afford to raid. I’m not asking for black lotus here. been living without that since launch. I just want to be able to use mongoose and other high end elixirs again. as it stands now i have had to subst…

Convert unbalanced PVP servers to PVE

Before you all go telling me no just hear me out! The first PVP server has died with more seemingly soon to follow. we are long past the point of any less drastic solutions. BGs are not going to fix this. The alliance have been chased off of too many servers and so there will be far less then expected queuing for BGs. The horde are going to have nightmarish queue times and so will continue to gank and chase the alliance off creating a vicious cycle. If we convert these unbalanced servers into P…

A free month for PVP servers

I think everyone on pvp servers with lvl 40+ toons should get a free month sub. that way those who are going to let their time run out before BGs have a chance to pop back in when they come out and see if things have gotten any better. Its better then just losing those people outright and risking them never coming back.

WoW tokens... Its not what you think!

I am NOT asking for WoW tokens for classic! I repeat I am NOT asking for WoW tokens for classic! My game time is up in a few days and this months been tight. I don’t have a debit or credit card so my only option is to go to the store and buy game time cards for 30$. My questions are simply these: Could i make a toon on retail and have someone trade me a game token? Whats a good gold price for one converted from retail amounts into classic? Does any of this violate the TOS? I’m especially worr…

[Bruh-misha]

sweetie, this is TBC Classic. The actual Burning Crusade was 14 years ago. We already have changes implemented into this game that were not present back in TBC.

Dual spec is a great system. I am for it. Queue times are Blizzard’s fault and they need to either allow mercenary mode or do something because 50mins for one BG is pretty awful.
