Will we see new servers for TBC launch or during pre patch? I know some are lower pop but isn’t TBC way more popular and should it be designed to hold a larger player base? Also, I only mean like 1 or 2 servers per region for people who want a fresh start.

Awesome IDea. Make sure you look through the posts as well. There are tons of people saying this.
Well I realized most people were referring to fresh as a different meaning, as in “seasonal” new classic vanilla wow. I haven’t seen anything from blizzard on this topic and a few a of the posts were just asking what the difference of fresh/seasonal mean. Im hoping this would be answered by a Kaivax.
I hope so as well.
My guess is they’re going to lowball and then open new servers as needed
Starting low and growing is way easier than overestimating and having to shrink down. That’s part of what killed Star Wars: The Old Republic on launch
Agreed! But classic launch was intense if you played in Aug-Oct of 2019. Hopefully it doesn’t get that chaotic and most of the dead servers were due to the transfers they allowed for, free or paid.
It’s definitely a hard thing to judge. Not enough servers, and launch will be horribly congested and everyone is gonna be sitting in login queues. Too many, and 90% of them will be ghost towns as soon as the launch hype dies down
I trust Blizzard after 8 expansions of varying levels of launch population to at least know how many servers are a good idea
I used to trust Blizzard but this is Activision now - a majority of decisions are driven for shareholders and their stock price.
100% agree

Mega thread for the push for new TBC servers starting at 2.4.3 upon pre-patch. I’ve noticed it seems Fresh means something different to everyone apparently.
I always thought the term ‘Seasonal’ meant they were wiped clean constantly. Fresh always meant brand new to me.

And in they end they actually suffer the shareholders.
