The Burning Crusade

I have a strong feeling that Blizzard will eventually create a BC server. For someone like me, that is truly “home”. Wrath of The Lich King was also a great expansion, and in my opinion some of the best story telling in WoW History, mostly due to Warcraft III.

I am curious however about several things. First being timeline of release, and whether they will announce BC during Naxxramas like they had done so many years ago. Also, would it be drawn out in Phases like they have done for Classic? I would imagine not so much.

I just cannot wait to farm my Netherwing Drake once again. Clear Karazhan, SSC, TK. I only did a few bosses in Black Temple, but the feel of that raid was incredible. God I miss BC :heart_eyes:

If they release TBC I’m sure Blizzard will find some way to screw it up. Just like they did Classic.

Of course it would be drawn out in phases. Artificial time gating is Blizzard’s main tool in making people stay subbed.

The Burning Crusade is an infection you get at the Goldshire Inn on an RP server.

If Classic TBC is released I’m not sure I’d play. Honestly, the only thing I really liked about it was Karazhan.

I’m not so sure actually. There aren’t as many things they could screw up. No need for spell batching!

Rather have TBC than Vanilla. I’d be okay with them expediting content patches if it meant we got to TBC sooner.

Mega servers and layering was a huge mistake. So were not locking factions or realms. This was disastrous for wpvp and horde are currently (and most likely always will be) miserable playing against AV premades.

Not at all a Vanilla experience.

I’m sure they won’t be correcting that.

Why would i play a legacy sever that is nothing like the original

Honestly you’re probably right, but I don’t think the player base for BC would be as large as Classic was. Given how Classic’s launch, and Phase 2 went, I suspect BC’s population would be substantially less. I don’t necessarily think that is a bad thing though.

My prediction is that there would be only minimal Alliance population. There is no reason to play Ally in TBC.

I agree that a lot of people are pretty disappointed in how Blizzard handled this project. If they launch with mega servers and layering again I just won’t play.

Oh goody. Then everyone can read the billions of horde threads crying about BG queues again.

It’ll be interesting to see how far Faction Pride goes.

Most likely will have to layer Hellfire if it is progression based servers. I hope they honestly launch new servers, and you have to level from 1-70.

It would be on a whole other level. Arenas could help though.

Faction Pride will keep me Alliance. Gnomes are the best.

But, it won’t keep me playing the game. I’d likely just not play at all if the faction imbalance is as bad as I suspect it will be.

Well you’d have insta BG queue like now. Also, flying mounts would negate a lot of unwanted world ganking. So I dont think it would be too bad to be Alliance

The question is at what stage would we be getting TBC…If we get the latest version of TBC like we did classic then the early raids would be as much of a push over as we’re seeing with MC and ony…not saying BC wouldnt be fun and I would definitely play it but something to consider.

I wouldn’t count on it. SL is going to be taking up all the oxygen in Blizz for the next year.

IMO

Yeah but they need TBC annoucment to counteract that. Like D4 shouldbhave been for Moble diablio.
