Please let me play Classic AND Retail

I want to go super nerd, have 2 windowed screens with both games going, one farming boars and the other doing my dailies.

Why isn’t this allowed? I’m still technically paying for both games, I don’t remember signing or agreeing to anything claiming I couldn’t play both games at the same time.

It’s allowed. You just need two accounts and two subscriptions.

I don’t think you’ll ever see them allowing one account to play both simultaneously, but perhaps all the queues will motivate Blizz to look into what it would take to let people play one of them while sitting in a queue for the other. And then when the queue pops, you have like 1 minutes to close the other one and accept the freed up slot you’ve been waiting for.

This would’t just help with Classic now, but later during subsequent Retail expansion launches, too.

/moo :cow:

Well said my friend, Queues have dropped since the server cap increase in vanilla (2-3 days ago?) before I was waiting 3-4 hours in queue, now it’s about 1-2 hours… but if I could do my dailies during that it would be awesome.

Why can’t I play on my character on Moon Guard and my character on Wyrmrest Accord at the same time? Because it’s still just one account.

You can play WoW and every other Blizz game at the same time tho. Hell you can even play all 3 Hearthstone regions at the same time

Yes, because those are separate games. WoW classic is still WoW.

Wrong

I have a US and EU WoW account tied together in my battle.net account

Same game, 2 completely different regions so I’m able to play both simultaneously

Different games you toad.

Honestly, the only thing I can think of is to prevent account sharing. I have been wondering this for a few days as well, and it is all I have come up with.

No you are paying for Retail. Classic is a perk of having a retail sub.

Then its not allowed. Not like how you could have played the Classic beta and retail at the same time (which I did). Or have PTR and the current client up.

Because you pay to have one charactor going at a time. I can’t play with 3 windows open and multibox my charactors on the same amount. If I wanted to do that I would need multiple accounts which could all be connected to my btag. Same goes for your situation in classic.

I agree being able to play bfa hile I . Que would alleviate some of the frustrations of the queues

You will not serve two masters on the same account!

I’m not going to listen to you! Your not my master! Sylvanas is my queen and I can’t serve more than one master on one account.

That is the truth.

From what I’ve seen in observation, anyway.

You are technically paying for a wow sub that comes with access to both games…
