Was leading a 20v20 PvP fight in Xibala just now. All of a sudden it lags out and I DC.
When I log back in, not only did everyone in OUR group DC, but the ENTIRE ALLIANCE GROUP was just gone. Big PvP fight over.
Thanks Blizz.

I wish the servers can handle big battles. It would be cool if there were server big battle stress testing.
Gone are the days when u can have hundreds of gnomes raising orgrimmar I guess

Servers can’t even handle random BGs right now. I have been trying to play for a couple of hours and everyone will lag + DC.

I think the servers are just lagging today
Yeah it’s extremely unfortunate. Guilds and streamers alike have tried to organize big pvp battles but everyone just gets sharded into oblivion or the sharding system breaks and lags everyone. It’s really ridiculous.

Also, Blizz can you just cut the Drustvar assault from the cycle until you can fix it? I have no problems with the others but for some reason Drustvar every time is a complete disaster.
You know, in all my years playing WoW, I can’t recall a single live stress test.

I remember having some decent sized groups in like the first month of WPvP that didnt seem to lag stuff out, but thats on a RP server so I dunno.
This lag and dc’s and server roll backs seem to have started since todays reset.
Happens in bgs. Happens out in the world. Happens alone while doing WQs. And it happens across servers (I play on WrA,ED and MG)
Im going to take a break from WoW until this gets a fix… cause man its not fun…

Luckily, classic servers don’t seem have this issue as we saw with the Asmongold vs other streamers on the beta. 4 40man raids clashed. no lag, no crashes
that being said the world population on those servers is understandbly small, being a closed beta. we’ll know for sure with further stress tests and a larger population.
Blizz is just ripping off it’s customer’s making content that it’s server’s can’t run.
We pay for one thing, access to the servers, if blizz is unwilling to use our subscription fees to at least create the ability to log in and stay connected then they are violating their own ToS.

Server reset sometimes has issues. Can we climb down from our crosses yet?
The word is maudlin.
The one they’re doing on Classic right now is the first I’ve heard of something like that.

There’s one tomorrow for Classic.
And something to note for BfA and maybe to think about as a lesson learnt:
Minimal lag, large scale battles.
It really is the class complexity and spell changes that have destroyed World PVP.

Play classic
The servers are meant for pvp

This is true
I never understand why Blizzard insists on biting off more then they can chew, ie the 40vs40 southshore/Tmill brawl
I’d rather play both.

I remember back in MoP doing 80v80’s on the Timeless Isle. Sure it was laggy and there were phase lines (which didn’t help the lag at all btw) but you could actually cast abilities and see them be cast. Large scale wpvp was way more playable back then and since then its obvious Blizz has scaled down their servers, likely due to the decreasing population in the game.
