REMOVE LAYERS on OCE anniversary server MALADATH

We are a low pop server with a tight knit community and the layers don’t make sense.

The population is too low to have layers
This server has a nice community but it sometime feels really dead and empty even though other players are playing around me but I can’t see them because of the layers system.

Please remove the layers in our tight knit server so we can play together as a (low pop) family.

Currently in Alice Springs to nightslayer chilling on a sweet 190ms however whenever I feel like giving back to the community, I’ll come send a few 99 parses to the peasants on the 'Dath.
Last night we had Abo the rogue from Outdoor boys drop an ony head but only 20 people (all of layer 1) received it, while the other half of OCE got jack.
Please fix blizz…

The layers make the open world feel a bit dead. Also hurts the wPvP which im a big fan of in Classic. We’re only a small AU server so no need for them anymore, please remove Blizzard!

Please remove layers from the realm.

None of us in our small tight niche community of Australians located in major capital cities want to make the journey / life change of moving to Alice Springs (I have been told ping is approx 180-210ms here).

My extensive research has shown that anywhere else in Australia right now has at least 3500ms to Nightslayer realms (which are hosted in Canada for some weird reason).

190ms? Jesus.

I’m from Bankstown and get anywhere between 2800ms. Some uneventful nights I’ll spike up to 3500ms, Alice springs sounds like the place to be for any serious raider.

You have a connectivity problem if you’re getting 2800-3500. Should be no more than 300 to Nightslayer from Australia.

Surely you are missing a 0 on that last comment, screenshots or it didnt happen?

No?

Look at what Dr Google says:

  • Under 20 ms: Pretty decent ping
  • 20–50 ms: Perfectly average ping
  • 50–100 ms: Good ping, generally acceptable for most games
  • 100–150 ms: Fair ping, playable but you might notice some delays
  • 150–200 ms: Poor ping, noticeable lag and delays
  • Above 200 ms: Bad ping, significant lag, making fast-paced gaming difficult

If you’re getting 3000, you’re playing on the moon?

Talking about ping is irrelevant.

I want to play with OCE people, chill low pop.
US servers are full of sweat and weird politics, and it’s always dark when I play. Can never enjoy a proper sunset in game.

Buddy if you’re gonna troll, you’re messing with the wrong realm. If you decided to actually look at the traceroute your packet takes you’d know it’s a lot more than 200ms.

Keep telling yourself Alice Springs is a meme. Grow up

We don’t need layers in a comfy server like ours. Would love to see them gone!

Support layers being looked at for OCE servers in general and Maladath in particular.

Perhaps a review should be made of the code/policy as the number of layers does seem unnecessary in nearly all cases for our population and makes the world feel dead which doesn’t match the number of players actually playing and doesn’t suit it being a PVP server.

Also hear to ask for removal of layers on low pop servers

Low-pop is still very enjoyable but layers are creating an issue with genuine interaction in the world. Definitely see a warrant with removal and I think our playerbase could benefit or even increase because of the authentic interaction. Layers makes it feel less-than when in reality the pop sizes have drastically increased from original 2006.
