Realm Consolidation Update - Season of Discovery

Well its time we make them care because we are paying customers.

Blizz please allow us to go pvp to pve and could you also consider allowing account to account transfer on same bnet?

thats what im here for

All they need is an amped up version of STV buff that make you immune to pvp and also reduces your damage to players (and pets) to 0% when in open world.

this 100% if they had said back when it was first announced that OCE was included we would have had more time to include feedback, at this point they already made up their mind and our feedback means nothing.

So much for being a dead server, the only thing worse for wear is my pride having been ganked all over Searing Gorge and unable to get enough mobs due to sheer competition.

In the last week I have completed priest quest, paladin mount quest, full runs of Dire Maul and Scholo, all in pugs.

Please let us keep OCE servers and aussie latency. there is a very vocal MINORITY wanting moves, most of them from Penance which yes is a lost cause. The majority of players want to keep our server alive.

Imagine asking feed back from the oce community and not even posting any updates before the release of the mega servers.

They should just let us copy our characters to CS :slight_smile:

So Crusader Strike will only be 1 faction allowed? No transferring alliance characters if you already have horde?

Bump for oceanic

what happened to the char that the nickname is already used?

Oceanic idea.

Probably way to late to make this suggestion but would it be an idea to leave oceanic servers alone so we can keep our ping and community BUT:

Provide a cross server LFG Chat, allowing oceanic players to group with US players for dungeons (not raids) and if grouped with us players then we zone into a US instance.
Disable any trading between Oceanic and US players to prevent cross server trading unless it’s items from the dungeon and things like mage water.
This would provide oceanic players with more players to do dungeons and even battlegrounds with while still maintaining our local servers, community and ping when not interacting with US players.

Yes we wouldn’t have as many players in the open world and IMO if we do transfer we will always have a high ping, at least this option we only have to cop the higher ping sometimes.
I know the cross server tech is there already.

And for US players thinking they wouldn’t want oceanic players joining their groups, well it’s going to happen anyway when we all transfer over, at least with this oceanic players would be more incentives to form local groups 1st.

Or:

Open transfers for those who want the open world population but also implement something like this. I would believe something like this would enable a lot of guilds and raid teams to not feel so forced to move knowing they can keep their ping/names while still providing an active instanced group player pool.

Just a thought.

You already lost blizzard.

The biggest issue with saying it is optional is that already we know that a fair number of guilds and players are going to make the shift because they see our server as dying, and that action in itself essentially kills our server, making the shift the better choice for many more people than would otherwise transfer.

If so many people were not planning to exit, it would still be an option; but without new character creation and with as many people leaving as have indicated, it makes the rest of us worried that we will be left with a much smaller population than if Blizzard had left well enough alone.

To this point, numbers were okay. Low pop? Yes. But enough people that we had many guilds clearing content every week, dungeons going, DMT being made available, summons to Kargath, and the BRE dailies constantly being done by people. The end of the phase doesn’t help matters, as there is a lot of raid logging (unfortunately); but the fact remains that the server health will take a major hit when the transfers open up tomorrow.

sounds bad

Wish it was earlier to give us time to find an MC for tonight on over on our new server. Also not cool you are basically forcing non-RP players to an RP server.

Have they still not clarified this? Or level requirement to transfer? Or gold cap you can bring with you? Great job Aggrend and the team. You are so customer centric.

As long as the oceanic community continues to accept feces thrown in there face and say thank you blizzard will continue to throw it in your face.

Once you eventually stop accepting it as okay and do something about it then they might be more willing to actually tailor something for our region.

Too many weak pessimistic people who have no heart or morals to do the right thing just because its the more difficult route.

Enjoy paying your sub fee for a sub optimal feces covered experience who knows this might be the final time you ever have an oceanic server going forward since people are so willing to accept a slap in the face.
