Retail is doing fine and has more players then classic wow

Retail has zero full servers. Spreading misinformation isn’t cool

am i?log in and check then get back to me:)

If you can log in without a queue it isn’t full by the definition of the word. You can call it whatever you want the fact remains

Retail has zero full servers :slight_smile:

servers say full my dude.

And yet they aren’t full

i just log on to classic to incendious it says full and i didnt have a que time:)

Yes. There are … possibly 3 servers that have a small queue time now if you log in on peak times. Faerlina, Herod, and Whitemane. Outside of that it seems those servers aren’t also full but in a different way the servers on Retail aren’t full. Blizzard changed the way Classic calculated Classic servers a few days in after a bit of a consumer uproar :frowning:

During Wod they decided to “randomly” stop showing sub numbers. Ever since then wow has been bleeding out subs

cluttered server logins doesnt mean full servers it just means lots of people are logging in at the same time.

I only play this game in hopes the next expansion brings improvements.

Don’t think there’s a single element of BFA itself I enjoyed.

Possibly. However back when Classic was launched queues were around 20,000. Because of this Blizzard expanded the maximum number of players allowed on per server and increased layering. Since then, and because of natural attrition of players and because of new realms and free transfers the queue time have been gradually decreasing. Which suggests that it’s more to do with ‘full’ (however Blizzard determine if a server is full) realms

Blizzard need to get people off servers because they need to get rid of layering by phase 2.

I don’t anyone is expecting Classic to have anywhere near the number of players that retail has now that the initial rush is over. But it still fills a needed niche.

the initial rush is about over the people that dont liek the leveling are about gone now give it one more month and they will be out.

Don’t be afraid.

How do you know it is promising ? It hasn’t been announced we know nothing about it .

How do we know any of the leaks are true especially anything from 4chan .

YOu do realize this is only phase one of classic and there are supposed to be 6 phases released so even if people make 60 during phase one there is still at least a year if not more of classic depending on how fast they release each phase.

i am aware not everyone is going to raid in classic wow shocker right?

how many play both and are grinding a bee mount this month?

shared sub is a genius move by Blizz and both games benefit.

I would like to remind everyone that retail and classic uses different metrics on deciding how full a server is. Classic shows how close that server is to capacity, while retail shows how they are in comparison to other realms. Also worthy to note is that we don’t know how much each server can hold in either Classic nor Retail. Retail has more servers as well, meaning that players will be more spread out on retail than on Classic, where players are going to be more tightly packed than on retail.
