Today is the 73rd day of BC:C. On the 73rd day of actual BC Lady Vashj was killed. We are weeks behind players in actual BC, because they had access to T5 raids at launch, we did not. This is way too long of a wait for bosses we should’ve had day 1. It’ll be over 3 months by the time we get it which is just ridiculous, for T4. 4-6 months is fine for later tiers ofc, but we only have three 25m bosses atm.
Imagine if classic gave us only Ony and UBRS as launch raids and we had to wait till phase 2 in December for MC. That’s pretty much what we have right now.

Imagine if they released tier 5 content on day 1 and then ruined season 1 pvp due to PVE items being insanely broken.

I’m fine with the pacing, if t5 was out from launch, your post would just be asking for t6 instead

You are aware this is how it was in actual BC right? Both T5 and hyjal were in the game at launch.

Yes, but blizzard is allowed to make improvements, and people/addons were potatoes back then

No I wouldn’t, I even stated in my OP that T5 lasting 4-6 months like a normal raid tier is fine. 3 bosses lasting 4-6 months is not fine. And even in actual BC, SSC was cleared at this point. We don’t even have it available.

Most everyone is fine with it, also kara exists and is fun man. There are like 2-3 people that complain about raid pacing, everyone else is always chillin having fun

Then why release content significantly slower than was done back in the day. 1 month, maybe 2, would’ve been fine to “preserve the integrity” but waiting 4-6 months for launch content isn’t really ok
Why not use the remaining time to level and/or gear up an alt? That way when T5 hits you’ve got 2 toons who are ready to step in.

The gating, pvp and PvE are not improvements

I have noticed that the main people I see complain about raid pacing are also classes with heavily crafted BiS items, so I think they get bored faster.
Been mage/warlocks mostly that I’ve seen

They actually are, because otherwise Kael would have died like 5 days after launch, and people would just be bored waiting on t6

I shouldn’t have to. This is launch content, I’m not asking for SWP and Isle dailies, I’m asking for content that came with BC launch.

Are you aware of the difference in skill level of players right now vs then, right?
Both t5 and hyjal would be cleared within weeks and the while pvp balance would be beyond broken and dead. The only reason why this never happened in original TBC was because people wernt playing a 10+ year old min max solved game where 90% of players are sweaty nerds.

Yeah I mean if they have so much time on their hands…literally just play another toon. You’re guild will be very appreciative of the amount of flexibility you offer by being able to fill another role when needed.

I have a class with crafted BiS, and I refuse to play alts, I demand more content NOW! - OP

Honestly, I’m playing my alt more than I’m playing my main right now. Having a lot of fun doing it too. When T5 starts, I will pick back up on my main. No biggie. Gives me more stuff to do.

Did you read my OP? By this point of BC SSC was already cleared. Players back then weren’t “unskilled” they knew what they were doing. Were still weeks if not more away from having launch content. Again, I’m not asking for BT or SWP.
Did you read what I said as to WHY it’s not released now?
