The Wrath of the Lich King Classic Pre-Patch Goes Live August 30

Yeah, just like how they listened to us about wanting diablo immortal ROFLMFAO

If you play Fresh and are not planning to rush to 70, why are you playing Fresh? If the bots don’t screw the economy the people going hard will.

I’m not one for those kind of gatherings. Mostly because I’m really only able to take one vacation a year for a week or three, if I want, but I was thinking just the other day that we should probably be more pro-active if we actually want this to happen. Like, online does not phase them, it’s different. You get hundreds or thousands of voices online and you can just tone them out. But if you are standing there, talking to someone irl, in front of a large crowd, on TV, well things change a bit. It becomes more about optics at that point than your ego. This is just like politics. It’s why most public interviews have pre-screened questioned and they figure out who’s asking something ahead of time.

But with the diablo ‘‘Is this an out of season april fools joke’’? Question, among some others in the past I feel like it isn’t as pre-scripted and all it would really take would be for one or some of us to actually go to the events and get lucky enough to be called on.

I’d ask something like: ‘‘Hello, my names _______, I have played your games for years, and i’d like to know if it were possible for you to change your minds as devs when it comes to your stance on adding RDF to classic wrath, because I don’t believe your data when it comes to your feedback and every source I can find says the opposite, thank you.’’.

How is sitting in Dalaran, staring at and refreshing an LFG tool preserving the social experience of classic? I don’t understand the logic. Most socializing occurs within guild chats, gen & trade chat, and whispers.

How is it not better to just queue for a dungeon and actually be able to play the game


Queue in RDF and keep on questing and interacting with other players in the actual world. The argument of preserving the social experience makes no sense. Staring at a LFG for an hour trying to find a group that’s not going to police your class is going to be a nightmare and will only promote this type of behavior.

100% positive you have to have another toon leveled. Which makes sense its fresh servers for a reason.

RDF reinvigorated the game. You could actually do dungeons as a melee or new alt.

just wait: LF 3 DPS Daily Heroic 4600GS min no melee fast run

At least allow rdf 10-60 with portals. Running to an instance all the way across the world is not invigorating. It was nice to quest while a group was put together.

Lol. At this rate, I’ll be lucky to play before the expansion drops. My character has been MIA for 7 days. :dracthyr_cry_animated:

people in oceanic zones would like to know if we will have any or we have to play US

Meh I’m still bummed that they are progressing the BC server instead of offering a separate Wrath server and clone service as they did before. I do strongly suggest that Blizzard make Classic Cata separate. Some of us would like to stay in Wrath.

I have a feeling Blizzard would have more players than it would know what to do with if it just launched legacy xpac servers and left them the eff alone. One PVE one PVP for each xpac, they could add more as needed.

How 'bout you guys?

Disappointed that the period between launch and raids opening is less than the two weeks that I thought had been spoken about, but maybe I am misremembering.

Can’t get any time off for launch, would have liked to have had two weekends :frowning:

Can’t wait for wraith and seeing LFG Chat scroll by on my mega server

Good news! You can STILL raid the following week so it doesn’t change your plans at all.

I would have liked two weekends to level my character and then get into the first raids instead of lagging behind people who took time off. I’m allowed to be disappointed that I thought I would get two weeks to level and now I won’t. Why even respond like this?

With 2 weekends of play you would have still been lagging behind people that were full pre-BiS. I am sure your guild will still let you raid with them. So as I said above, it doesn’t change anything for you because if you don’t have time off for launch you are going to be behind regardless.

I bet fresh Cata servers would be popular with the old world being revamped.

Two weekends would have given me more of a shot than one weekend. It’s disappointing and frustrating regardless.

In an ideal world, sure, it’d be great if the 2 people that wanted to stop at Burning Crusade could do so. But, I don’t really see much of any demand for that, and I can’t imagine they’d be able to squeeze out even a single decent server’s worth of people that do.

Wrath is a different beast though. Because Cata is undeniably an extreme splitting point for the player base, with tons of people that have no interest in anything beyond Wrath. Even modern Blizz should be able to recognize that much. There will almost certainly be permanent Wrath servers around.

Yes please for permanent Wrath servers. This expansion was the best of the best.

I will not be playing Cata Classic.

Also +1 for RDF, who cares when in Wrath it was introduced? For casual folks needing to find a dungeon run it was essential.
