Maybe because there is no established demand from a known, large number of customers, and Activition/Blizzard have shown a pointed lack of interest in developing anything new and risky?
Because, again, you start facing many technical roadblocks.
How many realms are people gonna be on?
How many people would even be willing to be on this experimental realm?
Why even bother to go through all the trouble to do this experimental CLIENT, has to be a whole client, not just realm?
If they do classic+, it will be for all, sans some new realms for 1.12 as they already stated they want to keep a version of classic as a museum piece.
What does that has to do with literally anything?
Instead of arguing any of my many points and arguments you bring up something like this, which by the way, isn’t even using it on purpose.
It’s a character mog from Vanessa Vancleef.
You’re just posting random stuff and going against classic on the classic forums.
Brace yourselves here comes more classic is soooooo much better than TBC content… You do realize that TBC had more sub numbers than classic ever did?
could start it off slow. be a vanilla server with a model toggle (i prefer the old models but some folks want the new models). and a guild bank. a few qols, iotw. and if popular enough, add additional content, also slowly. like medivhs tower or karazhan crypts or emerald dreams. maybe new races (my pick - silver covenant high elves for alliance and ogres for horde. hordies know now its all about the bass. hehe. i say this while playing a velf. hehe)
I do it just to trigger you. It works and I throughly enjoy it. Plus you do realize that isn’t the original look of Vanessa Vancleef it was the Defias set right?
I had every pet and mount[1] I could get my grubby mitts on in vanilla. And my main was a warlock.
[1] Except the gnome mounts, which I hated for the noise and for being apparently mechanized chocobo rip-offs.

Well the world PVP thing is going to vary from server to server. My server had SUPER active world PvP in TBC and Wrath. It just turned into a ghost town after cata hit

You made an entire thread, posted every 2 seconds and ignored everything just to “trigger” me?
Ok lmao, whatever you do with your life I guess
Feel free to not play classic if you hate it so much then, don’t stay up waiting for tbc.
Feel free to not play TBC when it comes out if you don’t like it so much and love vanilla over chocolate ![:slight_smile:](https://d38bqls1q93fod.cloudfront.net/en/wow/images/emoji/twitter/slight_smile.png?v=6" ":slight_smile:")
Baelgun was thriving when TBC was out
oh that’s serious. i tried and succeeded to get 200 mounts so i could get the reward mount for 200 mounts. loved that dragonhawk mount, so iconic. and by the time i did it, mounts were all account bound, so i instantly got the horde version also. both gorgeous mounts.
the odds on some things are so bad. i have been trying off and on since like tbc, to get this lovely fellow
and it just dropped for me the other day when i wasnt even trying. think about the odds. that’s just insane.
I think some of the issue though. As someone who has been playing classic already for a few years…
You’d be surprised how easy it is to burn out on it. It did NOT have the lasting appeal I remembered from years ago. You just sort of tear through it and there is nothing left to do. So many specs are just worthless so even alts are less appealing. It makes for a great playthrough, but the lasting appeal just isn’t there.
- Arenas give you something to do endgame wise.
- Twinking really took off in TBC. More end game.
- Flying mounts gave you a reason to continue playing due to farming for alts.
- More race options, and better balance due to removing the whole Pally/Shammy nonsense.
- I’d argue that world PvP improved simply by removing Insta-Pyro cheese. Then again I played on a World PvP heavy server. 80 on 80 fights were common all the way through wrath.
- WoW even in it’s twilight years has a massive population for the MMO world. Most of the MMO’s I’ve played only have a few thousand people per server at most. There is enough population to have a server for each and every expansion without making a dent in the population numbers.

haha, you’re basicly dissing yourself here. Did vanilla wow Pservers start out with good servers? no…
How did they become better? Because there was alot of interest.
Is there alot of interest for tbc servers? compared to classic its not even 1/10 of the interest.
Exactly what I was thinking the numbers were there people played Cata is where it went down the toilet. I just want the talent trees and nostalgia of the burning crusade
I played for quite a while on p1999… BUT I left it eventually for P2002 because I liked all the xpacs up until PoP.
I also currently play on DAoC Phoenix… after quitting the Uthgard server due to better QoL changes and more content.
Might want to check those sub numbers we had back after vanilla then
and then subtract all the vanilla subs and then compare them? hmmm
After the content was done that’stue only reason
I’m not saying no to tbc here, but people here tend to be worse then when people were advocating for classic.
I don’t think you are remembering correctly. In TBC it took 3 seconds to mount, and any damage interrupted this.
If someone has 3 seconds to mount it really doesn’t matter if they fly away, or if they ride away on land… you aren’t going to catch them.
