It needs to happen. So many want to play with friends but can’t because of the server restrictions/q’s. Some of the old structures (which were likely limited due to the technology at the time) in the game are just not holding up well with the way the modern playerbase plays the game.
They have chosen that they want megaservers, they want a place where they can find multiple guilds that raid anytime of the day or week. Or doing dungeons, completing group content anytime of the day. Truth is players play on these smaller servers and figure out they can’t play the game because they need a group and just end up quitting and or caving to the bigger servers. People want convenience. Call it the spoils of modern gaming but it’s true. They are holding this game back by not implementing cross-realm just because there are some who don’t approve of changes made past WoTLK.
Retail’s crossrealm is fine. Communities like A52, Illidan, Stormrage, ED, Moonguard, Sargeras, Wyrmrest all differentiate from one another and have stood well along with cross realm for many years now. It never destroyed these communities at all. If anything it allowed people with established characters to be allowed to enjoy these server’s communities without a paywall, “locked servers”, queues, or rerolling completely. So I beg you to open the cross-realm gates.

There is a higher chance of rdf than x realm we have seen clearly rdf is not happening so the odds of cross realm is effectively 0. Even more so as x realm would go directly adverse to the directly stated goal of blizzard for classic to foster server community’s. It’s not going to happen.
Play retail with your friends then

100% agree. They need to cross realm wrath and instantly the game will grow tremendously. So many people are coming back and want to play with friends on locked servers. This the best solution that does not alter gameplay.
Honestly think the only people that are dismissing this are GDKP organizers that want to keep servers locked so they can charge higher prices than compete against everyone.

People who ask for cross realm in classic are the trolls but go ahead.

I agree but we are talking about classic wrath not vanilla.
Big difference

I did not say vanilla or tbc or wrath.
I said classic. We’re playing it. You’re on the forums dedicated to it.

What are the downsides of me and my friend doing a heroic together when on different servers exactly?
How does that at all ruin your experience?
Well you see. If you and your friend can play together and get gear together you guys might not buy their GDKP service later on because you’ll be able to raid together too.

I do not want to play with people from other servers.
You and your friend should’ve rolled on the same server.

Then you don’t have to.
And they can’t create a character on my server.
You are trolling and it’s very obvious.

I thought part of the appeal of having these classic servers was half to go back to the old systems that we had.
Why are we trying to push modern systems back into the version of the game that is meant to be free of these things?

Yeah Nacilep, why don’t you and your friends just roll on the same server… Who cares that the only servers that aren’t locked have like 3 players on them. Right?
Not trolling at all.
“You don’t have to” That’s not how it works. Once cross realm is out it’s out.
If they can’t create a character on your server then either you create a character on their server or they should have returned to the game sooner, not when EVERYBODY gets back and causes servers to get locked. People that suffer from this are the same people that quit the game after hype dies down, they are not important.
Your poor planning does not require cross realms.
Keep calling me a troll because you can’t reply with anything else.

None of my friends are locked out of the server I’m on, because I am not friends with people that play an expansion for a month only.
Returning tourists do not need an alive server either. There are multiple unlocked medium pop servers that would satisfy their needs. Roll there.

Jesus Christ. Classic andys really are the most toxic people on the planet.

Yeah nice troll attempt, you literally want classic to fail and find it fun to try and trigger people that just want to enjoy the game with their friends.

Here we go calling me a troll again. Broken record.
You’re out of things to say, or well never had any to begin with.
You not being able to cross realm with your friend will not kill Classic, you and your 2 month subscription is not that powerful.
