I’m 42 years old. I’ve played 15 years of WoW. I have a wife and kid and I work to provide. I’m level 44 through all this ganking that is going on. I’ve lost the love for this game in it’s entirely because of time. I see why all the changes were made for quality of life but nobody understands that. Everyone wants an empty game, hit 60 and be done.
Then what???
Yeah, your server is one of the couple I would say is actually dead. I was on there two or three days ago and counted something like 130 Alliance online. Didn’t check the Horde but Alliance side was definitely dead.
I was on retail for the past two days and I can tell you it was flooded. People got bored with classic. Classic is meant for private servers not retail. What is dead should remain dead. Vanilla was a great thing back then. Leave it there and keep the memories. Bringing it back just caused division. This has been a major headache if you ask me. Servers will continue to die. By Christmas, nobody will be playing Classic. All those classic lovers (I love classic don’t get me wrong) will wonder what happened and where is everyone.
You folks are weird who complain about ‘tourists.’ If you were smart you’d not want pops to drop, ever, because that would mean classic is a success. But no, you want ‘tourists’ gone so you can get ore and herbs. lol
The game is not fun when you’re unable to accomplish anything due to massive population. The reason so many players purposely choose lower pop servers, instead of picking the one with the biggest numbers.
that i should have paid more attention to Mary Jo Rutherford back in '97
This again huh… you know its almost predictable that when less than 1% of the pop is 60… that people that rushed and took time off and used leveling addons and everything else… will complain because hundreds of thousands didn’t do that with them…
I just can’t with you people anymore…
And with the new way the changed population counts… that is actually 6 overflowing servers, 5 high servers and the rest are full…
It’s really funny that people are complaining about not being able to find groups for X content RIGHT NOW.
Is this a retail instant-gratification mentality thing? Back in Vanilla it wasn’t unusual to hold on to some quests for days until you ran into another group trying to do the same content, with the servers as small as they were comparative to Classic.
Do you want them to never remove layering on Herod? Because if they merge Herod (of all servers lol) with another server, ya’ll aren’t ever getting rid of layering, unless you want several hundred people in Blackrock Mountain at any given time.
you are so full of it lol. dont be mad because everyone bailed on your free epic loot train.
I find most players are around my level.
Casuals are doing SM.
Engaged players doing ZF and Mara
Semi-rushing are doing brd and ubrs
Rushed are 60 doing mc and ony pugs
really? every quest I try to do there are 5 other people tryiong to kill the same mob with a ridiculously low drop rate.
the LFG channel is always scrolling with spam for groups. even as DPS I have been able to find groups fast
I am on Atiesh for what its worth
This seems pretty accurate ( would fall into engaged group… finishing up SM because I also have a 34 hunter
I hit 60 on Sunday but I wouldn’t exactly call that rushing. Game’s been out over a month now?
Got into a pug MC and went 8/10 the same day (already had some BiS from farming BRD and getting lucky in LBRS and UBRS pre-60).
These random content “checkpoints” as an indicator of how hard you no-lifed the game seems pretty arbitrary imo. I just as easily could have gone and done stuff in EPL/WPL and ended up doing Strat/Scholo instead of BRM quest lines on my way to 60.
Another thing to note is that on higher pop servers, gearing up for raiding or even leveling once you’re past the chokepoints of zone congestion is significantly faster than low pop servers because you constantly have groups forming for whatever you need.
This again, has nothing to do with how much one individual person is “rushing”.
Relative to your server, you rushed.
Not sure why you are trying to convince me otherwise.
Do a /who, voila!
RIght… lol I may not even be 60 on my main by Christmas… seeing as I have 2 sets of 3 boxes I am playing to have fun and take a break from the mains…
Some of us don’t need a blatant skinner box to keep playing, if you need that, retail is that way, if retail aint working for you, id suggest clicker games, all the dopamine you get from other games without you needing to pay attention to it.
Trolling can be amusing occasionally, I admit. Got a chuckle.
What would a /who accomplish beyond showing that at least 49 other people are 60, and 49 other people aren’t?
I’m not trying to convince you of anything, but my entire point is that labeling someone as having rushed “relative” to someone else is super dumb. That’s not how these concepts work, because they’re intrinsically not a relative thing.
If someone took 8 hours to complete a task at work, and another colleague took 4 hours to complete the same task, that doesn’t necessarily mean the employee who took 4 hours rushed their job. It could easily just mean the one who took 8 was less efficient at their job.
Similarly, just because I hit 60 before someone else, does not mean I sat at my desk for 8 hours a day every day for the past month. All it means is that I accomplished that one particular task before someone else did. Maybe other people have different priorities, like alts, professions, etc. Putting labels on people “relative” to what someone else has done is asinine.
That’s like if someone said you’re a poor person, because “relative” to Jeff Bezos you have no wealth? I mean I guess they’d be right, in a weird pointless sort of way, but how much water does that hold in actuality?
If you are in EPL it means that you are ahead of 95% of people.
