Whats cringe? Explain?
There are plenty of servers with less than 1,000 players will never have layers turned on, Arcanite Reaper, Felstrike, Lotheb etc…they all have less than 600 active players and won’t have an issue for layers for sure. Make up your mind and pick one.
Apparently with all the changes made to Classic since launch it wasnt made for you
Because everyone was starting to return to their normal lives.
However, allowing the creation of new characters allowed players to create characters on multiple accounts on already overpopulated realms, taking up limited logins.
The two changes came together. The removal of layering would’ve been just fine if not for that.
Layers are back! Wonderful news.
the thing you promised us would be eliminated from the game before phase 2 is now in the game nearly @ phase 5?
Th- thanks?!?
Classic is not for you obviously. Layers are on. Take it or leave it!
Explain why you would need layering if Blizzard had rolled out the correct server sizes and more servers.
I’d wait, but I’ll be long dead before you can come up with anything.
Please Blizzard give us an API function to to tell if layers are enabled on a realm, addon authors have to keep updating realm lists every time you change it. A simple IsLayeredRealm() would do the trick.
Lol what? plenty of servers are no where near needing layering.
none of them should need it ever is the point.
LOL! Why do I have to explain that? I want layers simple because I can’t log on and play. Last time I checked I did not ask for layers when I could actually play the game.
Thats not possible when ppl keep coming to these 2 servers. Layering is better then nothing. Or would you like for ppl to log in and see that blizzard put them on a empty server.
oh they should fix the game to make it playable for you of course.
What I’m saying is they never would have had to “fix” this problem if they had never created it to begin with.
This is true, but the dominant driver I think was new bot creation by gold sellers. Not sure about Herod, but in just the last week Whitemane leveling zones have been completely overrun by new bots leveling up, which were almost certainly new accounts created when the restiction was lifted. I think you’re right that we wouldn’t be seeing queues if they had kept the restriction on new accounts in place.
Thing is, they never actually promised it would be removed.
They just said layering – oops, I mean sharding – was antithetical to the concept of a cohesive Classic community and that they understood the concern regarding layering’s impact on world bosses and limited resources (Black Lotus, for example).
But of course… they don’t care if it’s antithetical.

they did actually say, i forget where. but they said it would not return after launch, no matter what.
Lmao ppl that think like this are funny.
I believe you’re misinterpreting when they promised to remove layering completely before Phase 2.
They did that. Never said anything about not bringing it back, though.
Maybe Get rid of all the bots on these servers and the que times will disappear ??? Just saying You guys know there Exploiting the heck outta this game …
