About 3 hours ago, we deployed increased capacity to address the initial peformance issues.
About 15 minutes ago, we deployed a change that spread out players a bit more, to reduce congestion and latency out in the world.
We’re continuing to monitor conditions on all realms and we’re working urgently on issues as they arise.

The Mists of Pandaria Classic launch was very popular!
We’re working quickly to resolve server capacity and stability issues for some US and EU Classic Realms. We don’t currently have an ETA, but we hope to have it resolved shortly.
Going to also need the helicopter and gunship turret quests patched out and skipped, they are completely broken and keeping players locked out of content.
Was is past tense. It’s still happening. I’m not blaming you, but this isn’t an oversite. Every launch in this games history has been terrible and nothing has been learned from it. It’s not disappointment for me anymore as this is the standard for Blizz. I’m simply disgusted at myself for thinking it would change to be a better launch instead or being entirely worse than the original launch was.
That happened in OG launch too. surprised they didn’t learn from it. I remember just skipping it in OG wrath and my group of 5 people spammed jade temple til 87 then went straight to kun lai to avoid all the crowds and congestion issues. We got realm firsts ahead of everyone else by hours. Although I imagine in last decade people have come up with more efficient routes then that, but it’s probably still a sound way to avoid jade forrest congestion even if non competitive
Yeah, don’t really find dungeon spamming to be enjoyable, i’ve done plenty of that in previous classic launches. Just going to not play this time around I think. Lost my hype completely.
So I just don’t get to play until they decide to turn off auto complete? Given their track record that may not even happen until the next phase or even WoD classic.
Not much point in playing if not even the cutscenes are working right. Wish I could restart…
But, this is a blizz patch day, what was I expecting anyway?
Nonstop disconnect spam.
Seems as time goes on, connectivity to the servers gets worse and worse.
Probably due to less employees giving a crap about said game.
I no longer have a quest to get to Panda Land and nothing in SW gives a quest. Need a way to Restart the quest to talk to the King and start this all over again. This isn’t on the players, this is all on Blizzard. Blizzard had a month of the Pre-Patch and knew how many were going to Panda Land today.
I’d settle for some more layering at this point. Having to compete against 60 other people running around on a quest that requires 20 kills is insane. Even if you group it’s still a nightmare. #somechanges would be super right about now lol
