Two New Realms Now Open - Aug. 27 5:30 p.m. PDT

Two hour plus que on Incendious. We need a couple more eastern PvP realms. The eastern PvP realms are all way too full!

Ps…I hope bliz will refund our money back for the month of this mayhem? Or make this month and next free to play because I’m not playing…I’m sitting in queue…

Blizzard, please come up with a better solution than adding a server or two here and there! Maybe a wave of servers, twenty or more AND free character/guild transfers…or something totally mind blowing that no one has suggested.

My guild is over one hundred strong. I and a few of my friends got together and reached out to as many Vanilla players from our old server as possible. We got them to all agree and unite under one banner/guild. With this many players this took hours of work.

When the first wave of servers came out, after multiple Discord meetings, we all decided on Herod. Then you issued the dire warning about “excessive queues”. We got back together, more Discord meetings, and decided to move our characters to Stalagg. Within days, that server’s status was locked. When Blizzard announced the four realms that would come available on launch day we AGAIN, got together, yet even more Discord meetings, and decided to move our characters to Incendius.

The majority of us got lucky and got in right at launch, but a good number were in queue for more than three hours!!! Again, a brand new server!

I recently tried to login to our server and the queue was at over 11,078…again this was a server that became available only five hours before launch.

My guild took Blizzard’s suggestion and moved three times. While a majority of our members have been able to play and level, a good number are sitting looking at login screen with an estimated wait of three hours.

Again…please! Come up with a solution better than what you have been giving use since name reservation opened. Most of us are die hard Vanilla fans and want to play together, but the way that this was handled, we are either going to be fragmented on other servers, or lose friends/players due to frustrations with queue times.

maybe we should send in a support ticked and ask for more time :laughing:

Whoever’s idea it is to open only one or two servers at a time, should actually get fired, probably the dumbest way to funnel people in, they INSTANTLY have a queue now. The way Blizzard is going about this is laughable.

Just delete all the Retail servers at this point and use them as Classic servers, it’ll take people a year to hit 60 with these queues.

“We recommend that everyone fixes our problem that we created for ourselves”

“Also, thanks for the money suckers!”

This is honestly inexcusable and the tone with which every blue post is so disconnected from the community and their thoughts. BLIZZARD COULD CARE LESS! NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM HAS TO WAIT 8 HOURS TO PLAY FOR 1-2 HOURS WITH THEIR FRIENDS AND THATS IF THE cRAP SERVER DOESNT CRASH AND PUT THEM BACK TO 20,000TH IN QUEUE!!! REDICULOUS AND STUPID.

How many times do you expect people to swtich servers?? Everytime we log in or disconnect

“We recommend moving servers if you want to avoid queues.” New server has a queue in like 5 mins.

lolol! Funny cuz it’s true!

Creating new toon on any new server due to trafic - I’m almost full on available toons!

So we’re supposed to leave the servers that our friends and guildies have all planned to join for months, who all have characters progressing at different stages, communities of guilds (RPPVP server communities), and you want us to all just move because of a bad rollout.

Windseeker is messed up entirely! Everyone keeps getting DC

Make PvP and give my guild a transfer my guy

First of all, these are PvE, not PvP. Even if they were PvP how do I know they won’t be full tomorrow and require me to start ANOTHER character on tomorrow’s new server? This is crap Blizzard. You guys really messed up on this one.

So lets see, you guys sit on your hands and do nothing to make this situation go away , yet at the drop of a hat we are supposed to delete the characters we have started on, leveled quiet a few levels with and go off to another server and create toons to play till this all happens again and AGAIN …

GET IT FIXED WHY DONT YA…

466 Minute Que time (7 hours 46 minutes)

For Gods sake stop sitting back and laughing while we scurry to TRY to play

OFFER FREE TRANSFERS TO ALL
OFFER THIS ANYTIME WE ARE FORCED TO DEAL WITH THIS CRAP OVER AND OVER…

could NOT care less

Making a toon on EACH SERVER so I can just login whichever server happens to let me in fastest. Woot! Listening to audiobooks while waiting in queue. Already unsubbed my 3 WoW accounts. Hope I’m not still waiting in queues when the subscriptions expire. MAYBE I will resubscribe ONE account if Classic servers get unbogged, but I already didn’t like Legion or BFA and was ready to quit WoW because all the changes sucked. Blizzard SHOULD have resurrected Cataclysm, the single expansion with the most subscribers ever. People like Draenei, they wanted flying in Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms, many thought pandas were silly, and garrisons big time sinks. Legion and BFA got so messed up complicated no NEW players would want to grow into it. You had me at BC, kept me at Wrath, upset me with Cataclysm, but flying made that ok. Everything after… phaugh. Too many changes. Look up the word solastalgia, cuz I got a really bad case of it.

I mean the servers aren’t lagging. Open the population up and lets test this new hardware…
