Please, release Wrath as soon as humanly possible. Not only do you have a lot of people that are really looking forward to it, but people desperately need something to be excited about right now so we keep playing the game (and paying subs). Wrath has a lot of people excited and a great many want to play it. With more and more leaving retail and now with the closing of classic servers even…you need Wrath now.
(Please don’t comment if you don’t like Wrath. We don’t care. You are a very small minority and we don’t need you trolling here. Thank you).
Given the closure of some BCC servers it makes me wonder how viable WLKC actually is. It’s certainly not going to be like it was back in the day. Back then the game went from strength, to strength, to strength. Classic has not followed the same trajectory.
A lot of people didn’t even play TBC and to be honest TBC still has a lot of issues with class viability and balance. Wrath is when a lot of new people started and when balance was probably the best its ever been. All specs were pretty viable. It is leaps and bounds better than TBC.
Not really. TBC classic is slowing down. But just as a lot of people come back each retail expansion a HUGE influx of people will come back when Wrath starts.
TBC was always the least popular of the big 3 so I’m not too surprised. Wrath should do a lot better since it’s likely the last version of classic they’ll release.
I expect that when Wrath first releases that more people will be playing it than Retail. We are heading into a long content drought for retail and its very much slowing down right now. Wrath is the best way to keep people subbed over fall and winter before DF launches.
More of the same looking back through rose colored glasses. It’s funny how so many people keep trying to make it seem like classic and wrath were these golden ages. Then they play it and oh look, you thought you did, but you didn’t, server shutdown…
TBC classic isn’t dying. It is following the same pattern as retail. After an xpac has been been out a while subs start bleeding as less and less content comes out. Finally towards the end a lot of people leave. When the xpac launches a lot of people come back. This is the same for retail and classic.
They are consolidating servers. They have been doing this forever trying to keep more servers high pop. My TBC server is packed all the time. Stop trying to say it’s dying. It is not. You can scurry away now. My point is about releasing Wrath- not the lie that the sky is falling in on TBC.
“It’s fine they are just condensing servers for wotlk”
“It’s fine they are just removing more servers cause we are at the final phase of wotlk with ICC opening soon’”
“It’s fine they are just condensing all realms into one normal and one PvP realm cause there’s no interest in cataclysm classic, we can keep killing Lich King for the 200+ time”
“It’s fine they are just shutting down classic wotlk in hopes they can get more people be interested in classic wotlk Season of Mastery”
“It’s fine that wotlk classic is shutting down for good, no one liked any expansions after wotlk anyways”
Well to be honest from what I’ve seen with roomates playing TBCC is people (not just them) are having a hard time with The Sunwell. I can only atest to them and why they are done with it at this point.
Some I think will be showing back up in retail for a bit and them right around when Wrath is ready people will migrate over becuase of well…Wrath.
