I’ve switched servers 4 times now, each time to at the time low populated servers recommended by Blizzard. This weekend on Sulfurus I’ve been facing 1hour+ que times. The amount of time I am able to play is limited so this que cuts into my time significantly. As I said I’ve already switched 4 times along with my friends.
At this point we are all too invested to switch again. Please Blizzard allow server transfers or at least give me the peace of mind that they will become available or better yet you will find s fix for this issue. This issue wouldn’t exist in the first place if you didn’t severely underestimate the interest in Classic.
Wow, Sulfurus, too! I haven’t yet hit queues on Kurinnaxx, which was released I think literally at the same time Classic was released, but that’s crazy.
I am on Sulfuras. I thought the queue times were reasonable for a holiday weekend. It was labor day long weekend and Sulfuras got up to 4-5k and it took an hour to get on. That’s not amazing if you have limited time to play but I thought it was reasonable, especially for a 4k queue. During the week, it never gets bigger than 2-3k on Sulfuras and caps out at like 30 minutes with it easy to get in with no queue if you just log in slightly before or after rush.
Hahaha our expectations have become so low. Yeah, an hour in the queue is amazing compared to several waiting for Faerlina, but it’s still an hour nonetheless waiting to play.
It was never low pop outside the very first day and every server is low pop on the first day. It’s worth noting that I think our pop on Sulfuras is PERFECT. There is no queue most of the week days but it is always High Pop and the queue on the weekends is reasonable. It got up to 1hr but it was labor day weekend. Normally it only takes me 30 minutes on the high end.
We are a high pop realm that occasionally fills up on the weekend. We have a queue but not a bad one so if some people do quit, we have enough that it will never be less than high pop. And we have an amazing name. I know sometimes its frustrating waiting an hour to play your favorite game but honestly, Sulfuras is in an amazing spot with an amazing name and a bright future. Stick with it.
Also vote me Mayor of Sulfuras.
Lol you can tell I am in the queue. Actually down to 8 minutes so I speak from experience.
