Crusader Strike is infested with the most depraved, insidious players I’ve ever come across, in the last decade and a half that I’ve played this game, and I know I’m not alone in thinking this. Everyone jokes about it on the realm. Any sort of exploit, the players will jump on it. The incursion gold thing today? Literally every member of the Alliance was on the same layer grinding the incursions for 3 days straight. Want a laugh? Go look at our auction house.
Incredibly toxic user-base. If there’s an opportunity to be cruel to another player, they will jump on it. If you PVP someone on the other faction, you will 100% be getting a hate whisper from a level 1. Massive amounts of summon spammers, scammers and people who will mass report you for anything (regardless if it’s against the ToS or not). There are so many people on the realm that there’s no real sense of community and this is amplified by the fact that all of the Twitch streamers chose to roll there, and everyone vies for their attention. Grobbulus was great. Whitemane, too. This realm is just a disaster. I actually can’t believe that Chaos Bolt players were allowed to transfer here and not vice versa. It would’ve saved Chaos Bolt.
This is an RP-PVP server, where literally no one RPs because the roleplayers were pushed out. My suggestion is to either open a brand new RP-PVP server where people from this realm can transfer to, or allow us to transfer to an existing one that willing participants can revive. Personally, I would rather play on a dead realm than one bursting at the seams with toxicity.
Just joined a Gnomer pug on Crusader Strike, with a mixtures of 40s and 50s. We blasted through the raid and then wiped once on Thermaplugg phase 2 from the instant raid wipe mechanic (I guess our 2 Priest healers didn’t dispel). 1 person immediately left, followed by another, and another, and then the group just disbanded. Someone could have used the necklace… what a waste. And all because of 1 wipe on the last boss?
I’ll probably take this Xfer since the only reason I rolled here was to play with my Retail friends and they don’t even play anymore. Two of them do, but never when I’m online, there’s just no point being on this server anymore.
I’m on Crusader Strike and the people are really nice. Last week someone there named Devoxqt helped my grandmom cross the street and carried her groceries home for her. Then they saved a kitten that was stuck in a tree. It was a good day.
Too late. They killed the only other RP-PvP realm by suffocating it. They essentially gave us (Chaos Bolt RP-PvPers) no alternative other than to come to Crusader Strike (RP-PvP) or Lava Lash (RP). There were multiple threads about this.
They should have opened up free xfers from Crusader Strike to Chaos Bolt. We weren’t a dead realm (unless you wanted to play at weird hours) but instead they locked the realm and opened free xfers off of CB to CS (backwards as hell). Later they gave CB the option to also go to Lava Lash but lmao.
CS was the only option for RP-PvP and damn it’s a massive difference in culture. There is no chill. There’s so many people that no one cares about being rude or not. General puggable things (quests, dungeons) are pretty toxic most of the time in my experience. There is seemingly no RP either and so many layers/people that I won’t remember anyone’s name. A stark contrast to the enjoyable time I had on Chaos Bolt.
Reminds of AB when it’s like 100 Alliance to 110 Horde. There’s always that one guy who immediately starts in with the “WE’VE LOST U GUYS ARE THE WORST PVPERS I’VE EVEN SEEN THANKS FOR NOTHING IDIOTS” before afk’ing
