Since blizzard has decided to intentionally destroy an entire region once again and not provide any tailored or acceptable solution under the guise of “optional” transfers while locking new character creation to slowly strangle the server more.
I’ve decided to make this thread for the players who plan on staying on the server for as long as possible and actually standing up for what they believe in.
I won’t be going to crusaderstrike and i am hoping there will be others who are in the same boat since raids are now only 20 man and zg being 10 man its very realistic to have many guilds continue raiding here without much disruption.
If you are planning to stay and will be looking for a new guild/raid team or just friends to continue playing with comment below and use this thread to help find which guilds plan to stay and which players will still be around.
I’ll be looking for a new guild come tomorrow as i won’t be following Kataar to crusaderstrike i think its the wrong decision and that we as players deserve a better deal than the one offered to us.
Hope to see you on shadowstrike tomorrow and don’t let the doomers try to scare you into the whole dead server thing there will still be plenty of people in guilds raiding as usual after transfers open tomorrow.
Not sure what you mean? Blizzard said they’d listen to feedback, and the feedback has been pretty clear. Surely they’ll do something! They wouldn’t deliberately make an entire region who pays the same monthly fee as everyone else’s experience worse.
This isn’t what he’s talking about, he’s talking about classic tbc, initially, OCE had a very decent population from the spike in player base from wow classic->wow tbc, but blizzard intended to merge them into the main NA region so they’d be in our wsg etc.
As soon as OCE learned this, they came to these forums and absolutely blew them up, i’ve never seen blizzard so heavily criticized for a move, they had decent pop at the time and didn’t need it etc. The reaction was venomous. So blizzard said well ok, you can have your region lock and reverted the decision and then as tbc went onwards, the OCE population fell to critical levels to the point where the entire pvp scene was dead.
Overwhelming majority voted/provided feedback they didn’t want this and the only acceptable term it was okay was if they provided oceanic seeded servers.
This is who you’re catering to blizzard. The guys who will stay on a server until there is literally no other people on the server with them. The population is going to continue to decline on shadowstrike and that is only going to accelerate the amount of people that quit because they can’t physically find anyone to group with in an MMORPG. This move is going to kill our population, just like when you left it too late in som and everyone already quit before you opened up Jom transfers.
