Loading screen/Launch Issues - please keep it to one thread. Thanks!

Someone, anyone, PLEASE, beat that hamster like it owes you money!

They should just start doing server restarts and posting updates. this feel like WoD launch all over again.

Don’t bother trying to be cheeky and landing on the SW → Waking Shores ‘mirage’ boat that spawns way out in fatigue waters. While it will trigger the SW → Waking Shores boat load screen
 you still get booted back to Stormwind’s GY with “Transfer Aborted. Instance Not Found”, just as if you’d used the portal. :frowning:

And here I was, all excited that I’d finally be able to get to the Waking Shores :frowning:

Get on your flying mount, fly like 5-10 seconds southwest of the dock. The boat will appear eventually below you. Land on the boat near the front, not the back. You should be good this way, it works for most

Edit: Don’t follow this lol, this is the wrong boat. We got baited.

Best part is after doing a server restart for prepatch it all started working again


Didn’t they remove world first achievements almost a decade ago? WoD launch?

The zeppelin and the portal both are still timing out on the loading screen and giving the error, “Transfer aborted: instance not found”.

Dunno why my original post about Zereth Mortis was locked, but I’m here to report that I can log onto any of my characters, except for the characters in Zereth Mortis. That and my main is stuck on the portal to ZM and keeps getting kicked out of ZM just to be instantly teleported in again.

BOTH MY DEATH KNIGHT: SINISTERDK AND MY HUNTER ZARKNOTH CANNOT LOG IN. THIS IS INFURIATING. like why cant i log in?

1hour and 10 minutes watching friends leveling while i try to log back and counting. Thank you Blizzard

Got to dragon isles and game crashed on Hunter, now cant log in with any horde char, my alliance on same serve could get on but no boats
great launch
someone out there is getting the world first while 99% of us suffer as usual
seams fair.

all we get is were working on it, maybe something for all the time we’ve spent supporting your company in these lines for 20+ years and fail after fail with no remorse for your consumer

Still cannot get back to Orgrimmar. Got on the boat and made it to the Waking Shores, but never got credit for “To the Dragon Isles” to “Ride the Defiant Dragonscale to Dragon Isles”.

So, I attempted to warp back via the portal. “Transfer Aborted: Instance Not Found”. Tried to use my Dalaran Hearthstone to bounce off the Broken Isles. “Transfer Aborted: instance not found”. Tried my Garrison Hearthstone
 it worked. Tried to port to Ashram. “Transfer Aborted: Instance not found”.

Tried using my regular Hearthstone
 can anyone guess what happened? That’s right! “Transfer Aborted: instance not found”

Same here. On Dalaran. 1hr and 10 minutes after launch, some people made the first boat if they ran quick enough; it just appeared for a second. Rest of us just sitting here. Portal doesn’t work, sticks on loading screen and then sends you back to the dock with “instance unavailable” error. Exited WoW, reset UI, no difference.

The dock part of the expansion pack is fun. Is there more than just waiting on the dock?
