Official Oceanic Fresh Request

Your definition of “fine” must be different to mine. I’m just not interested in a US server with higher latency that feels worse to play.

And I’m apparently a drama queen for stating an objective fact that many people just won’t play at all because of this? Ok. :man_shrugging:

Saying that you won’t play because your interrupt will go off 0.15 seconds later than on a OCE server is just being dramatic.

The average human blink speed is 0.33 seconds.

Your choice of monitor and input device has almost as much impact.

Mind you this game was designed around high ms lol.

So there’s no demand for Fresh and it will be DOA.

But also we can’t afford to have the Freshers (who we’re told don’t exist) not roll on Arugal because we desperately need the pop.

Yeah I’m gonna go out on a limb and suggest:

Here are my thoughts on the matter .
Background - from Sydney with wifi fibre acct.
Playing on BC oceanic pve server - 3ms.
Playing on BC US west pve server - 144ms.
If there is no Wotlk Oceanic pve server I’m assuming speed will be 144ms. I’m not to happy due to the reaction times, but will have to adapt. I do remember when Classic first arrived 18yrs+ ago Oceanic players had to deal with 400ms+ . I’d prefer to relive Wotlk again then miss out on a fresh start.
Only having 1 pve server for US means there is less chance Wotlk pve will die a slow death of losing players lateron

I’ve barely played in months apart from casual leveling and bgs, so wrong. I’m just being realistic.

Dude, I’m not imagining the way it feels worse. I’ve played it before, and it’s noticeable.

This argument is as silly as when people say “the human eye can only see 30fps”. lol

It puts it into perspective, you’re ms is twice as quick as you can blink.

Better not be blinking on that spell cast I guess :person_shrugging:

Oceanic SOM only died because blizzard opened xfers to kill oceanic population it was the most idiotic decision anyone could of made

SoM in general died, barely any SoM OCE players even on the 1 decent pop server.

Fair play.

But why not let them have a server that dies in 2 months? So be it, free transfers back to existing servers. Who loses here?

Now i know you’re a troll

I don’t care really, I’m just saying I doubt they will give us 1 and honestly it will die and there is no point in sooking. US west coast will be fine if you want fresh otherwise there is 3 progressive servers if you care so much about 0.15s of lag.

The worse that could happen is blizzard drags their heels on a dead server and players that were expecting the game to be playable that would have otherwise contributed to the player pool will instead quit.

Everything I said is true, I was there.

So was i and what you said is rubbish lmao

OCE just doesn’t have the numbers to sustain itself beyond a few servers. They can’t populate their own battlegroup, they can’t populate SoM spin off servers, they won’t be able to populate a fresh server.

So anyway, your plan is to come onto the forums and counter everyone’s opinion despite it not affecting you in any way whatsoever. What a neat existence you have.

How doesn’t it affect me? I’m an aussie.

I agree with this which is why my suggestion resolves the issue it allows multiple servers linked crossrealm so bg/dungeons/arena are combined for oceanic problem solved

Please spin us all a wonderful yarn as to how a fresh server is going to dramatically change things for you, I’ll get the campfire and smores going because this should be an absolute thriller to hear.

Well they already are with battlegroups and it didn’t solve the problem, the influx of players might help for 2 months then you’ll be lucky to get a wsg at 10pm going.
