So,
Just to be clear,
We are removing RDF (a wotlk system)
In favor of retail version of LFG tool (retail system)
But the people wanting RDF (wotlk system) are the ones who should go back to retail?
Classic is supposed to be a recreation of the game we played. Private servers & its large playerbase are the entire reason classic exists (nostalrius etc)
And all pservers did was recreate the game for us. Which is exactly why this entire thing started. So now that we got to wotlk you want to throw out systems and not offer services (FC/RC) that wrath offered?
Pov: you wait 15 years to replay wrath on official servers then follicle challenged Brian Bumham & those he confers with decide to gut core features so you plead on forums where most everyone agrees its a bad idea but get ignored anyway.
P1 doesnt need RDF
But good luck getting groups in later phases lvling alts 1-70 zones
RDF greatly effects alts. We just leveled vanilla and tbc zones a bunch of times recently & RDF lets you break up that monotony. Helps encourage people to try tanking or healing roles as well. I remember my first time tanking was because RDF made it easy to give it a shot + bonus que is fast.
The LFG on beta is redundant. There is a REASON you are forced to use it before you can use LFG chat. Its because otherwise no one would touch it & just use chat cuz its faster.
Funny how RDF doesnt force anyone to use it and even its most ardent detractors admit they will use it if put in the game. Thats just how good it is.
RDF needs to come in at some point for wotlk classic. 3.3 existed for an entire year of wotlk lifespan, half of it.
Also RDF isnt CONTENT. The dungeons are the content. So this being based on 3.3.5 means it should be there from the very start. P1 not having it is a fair compromise, but its gonna get bad in p2 onward with no RDF trying to level alts. You will lose players at that point. “They wont be missed” a lot of the anti RDF say, but you guys arent actually a part of this community so no one cares what you think retail boys got their LFG tool in you should be proud of your abomination.
