Ian stated he wasnt worried about classic servers population so that implies at least HE has faith in it or is covering for PR mess.
Hes a vet though; i have no doubt if anyone has faith its him and lorne
Brack said they don’t care if “thousands” of people play or “tens” of people play.
That implies that to them, the population isn’t an issue either way. Classic is a museum, not a full release.
Thats good to hear <3 that means theyre taking the approach i wanted; its an art project not a sales pitch.
But that lends to 1.13 happening even more from an art prospective; Give me your finished product how it was MEANT to be seen.
At least, that’s what they said at first.
All these interview questions with expansions and crap are making me worry.
I’m still holding them to what they originally said though.
Don’t kid yourself. It’s all about the $$$. Blizzard gets a sub from everyone they entice to come try Classic. The best way to advertise to the target the are trying to attract is through the streamers… and the don’t have to foot the advertising bill.
The more the streamers explore, the more viewers they attract and the more Blizzard benefits.
No no no; if it was about money; they would make us pay for another account. What they are asking for here is literally enough to pay GMs and Keep servers running, you only need a battlechest to play classic not BFA
$20 cad would pay my portion of server cost and a GM for 1 hour of pay. the gaming industry works of Loans otherwise.
Quick question for the op.
If someone has never played the game. How are they to know something is an exploit. Where is this knowledge supposed to come from.
Also the aq thing was around in vanilla and blizz blatently stated they are keeping exploits and bugs in that were in vanilla as long as it wasnt game breaking.
Finally. Someone else who gets it.
Not only that, if it was about the money they’d have gone full remaster mode on it and we wouldn’t be getting it THIS year.
Very honest question.
Now as far as someone who has never played the game before and doesn’t know it’s a bug or exploit, I would not hold them to something they are ignorant or unknowing about.
But this very thing was not the case. This was somebody who actually plays the game, has knowledge of the game, knew it was a bug or exploit, and did not report it but instead wanted to make a dueling tournament there…
The person even stated that he was not going to report the bug yet, that he would do it later, after a dueling tournament.
And then after they are called out, the amount of toxicity that was given out was insane.
Defending themselves, the panic that was seen on the persons face when he was notified, being name called by them while at the same time I’m watching my post copy and pasted over and over and being called different names in the chat was hilarious, I will admit…Disgusting, but funny.
As far as Blizzard stating they are going to leave bugs and exploits in the game as it was as long as its not “game breaking” , if this was truly stated I am not sure how to feel about that.
Who was the streamers?
In all fairness, it is one thing for me to post that it happened, and even state what was done. But I am not going to call their name out like that. I am sure someone else will or may. Its one thing to shame, but I would rather not name them.
Meh.
Also the blizzard stated the reason to keeping certain bugs in was because it would be authentic.
We are getting the game with all the messy bits too.
You are spot one, she isn’t a petty sad person. Don’t worry, the whaaambulance is on it’s way to take you back to day care.
Yea…I am not sure if I should take that as just them being lazy to fix what we all knew was broken back then… Or if they just do not have the manpower to fix
them.
No. Its literally them stating that they are making classic ad close to vanilla as it can be.
Has nothing to do with man power. It was a conscious choice to keep the warts in.
Well, as annoying as some of the bugs that were not fixed til TBC were.
I will still be playing again, if for anything the nostalgic feels…
even if I do not get as far this time around as I did last go…
Why would we report it? That’s how it worked in Vanilla. Same with Caverns of Time. Same with under SW. Same with Hyjal. Why do you want them to change Vanilla so much?
