I wonder if this will be open cross faction or have the ability toggle cross faction on/ off.
I see no problem with this. It would increase the RP interaction. My only suggestion is that the person who owns the house also has the ability to remove an invite from anyone who is causing any issues and block them from any future visits. Knowing human nature as most of us do, sometimes anything positive like this could be seen as something to interfere with.

I fully agree, while it should remain open for all to come in if that is what they want for their house. Anyone we put on ignore should not be allowed to enter the house.

âŚthis is exactly what I was talking about, with the headcanon.
I guess Iâm the only naysayer in front of this train, and even then itâs really not saying ânayâ so much as âdonât get your hopes upâ, so Iâll largely knock it off unless I see something that super needs to be addressed. But people are already running away with this like itâs how itâs going to be.
Wishlists are fine, but yâall are setting yourselves up for some massive disappointment and resentment if youâre getting too detailed and invested with your plans on the assumption that those suggestions will for sure be implemented.

I really wish theyâd just give MG and WRA beefier resources and probably re-architecture things for their sake a bit.
Iâm tired of lag in SW. Blizzard used to pay to maintain over 300 servers. Most of those are dead, there are a few mega-servers like MG (and lots of PVE ones which donât mind sharding as much because they have no RP community) and they should honestly move to shut down or share resources of most of the remaining dead and tiny servers. Do more server-mergers and throw several times the resources other servers get at MG so we can actually have a MASSIVELY multiplayer online experience which means having hundreds of people RPing, doing trades, auction house, idling, etc in one small space like SW or infrequent event spaces like the Tournament of Ages.
IF they do that, do the server architecture work that moves in the exact opposite direction as their moves to be lighter and cheaper with their sharding technology then such a thing as being able to spin up a layer for a private house that is hosting several hundred people should be no harder than adaptively doing that for any given zone that sees large numbers of players.
So itâs a question of whether Blizzard is willing to change gears on server architecture and move from fragmenting and load balancing players for maximum cheapness with no regard to community or socializing or RP. And unfortunately thatâs not just a developer decision, itâs a management one as that tends to involve hardware purchases, changes to hardware, tasks for engineering staff in departments outside of the normal WoW development process and it may be seen simply as a cost they arenât willing to bear. I hope otherwise as in general I support this kind of thing though I support more the idea of making Stormwind on MG stable enough that people can go there and RP and do other business without worrying about lag outside of launch weeks.

I really donât get how this is head canon with warbands, cross faction guilds, and cross factions dungeons/ raids this question tracks. This is a gross over reaction to a simple question that tracks with all of the cross faction things already in game.
I still support a questline or something that allows us to learn and understand Common/Orcish and other faction languages for cross faction.
Like how we did the Furbolg whichâŚI never bothered to do. I just honestly never saw a reason to speak like a bearâŚ
I can support that was well. It allows for people that want to understand it the ability to do so while also allowing people that donât want to the option not to.

Precisely! Of course it should all be optional with the owner having control over who is in their home, or to keep it entirely private or friends only.
If itâs something that benefits the community RP or not, thatâs a poggies from me. Even if it comes from an Alliance dog. Senior Sergeant Maexa Hordefur of the War Wolves and Horde signing.

Strongly agreed! As possibly the most dedicated Animal Crossing player on these forums (I will defer if anyone can prove their loyalty to Kappân exceeds my own) the ability to just basically spin a wheel and find a cool town to look at has always been the important part of the game ever they added full connectivity.
Furthermore, I keep getting sharded on, and itâs really frustrating to find RP when thereâs a billion people on one shard and four in mine.
