Welp, Skyfury is dead

exactly, the SA optic cable lands on the west coast, so the whole of LA has like 30ms less ping to that zone.

Listen I’m just an intern, but I believe the devs over other server engineers that have made these claims.

You cant just replace the current server technology that wow is built on. Even if they did it would take months to optimize and fix performance issues with new server infrastructure.

Yep, we both know what this leads to.

Sad day.

agreed… BUT as it was WOTLK launch was going to be an absolute nightmare. But yeah, this might be the end of the server in the medium term.

Asmon alone made the queue from non existent to 3-4k… the second DF comes out and he quits the queue is basically gone…

No Horde will stay. Let’s be honest, this will be 99% Alliance by Monday.

Yup, horde already leaving in droves… thank the alliance who endlessly farmed them out of BRD for 10+ hours yesterday.

So instead of letting us have our 90 days without transfers you immediately caved 3 days later and gave free transfers onto the realm . I bought my sub thinking id get 3 months of a fresh server , now you’ve just left a bad taste in my mouth and I don’t think ill be returning for wrath after all. Good job Blizz

i know, but we gonna have around 2 months without DF.

… though i will also quit when DF launches, ngl.

They said they wouldn’t allow transfers IN. They never said anything about outward xfers. Just that Skyfury would not be available as a destination realm.

You have no idea if that is true, 4k+ alliance on and 3k+ horde. ill keep an eye on angerforge too

Its true. The last 72 hours horde have been crying about 70 alliance farming them to their desktop… they are bouncing to dodge the wpvp as expected

Well then. Looks like one pure horde server and one pure alliance server.

They allowed transfers INTO Angerforge after Explicitly saying there wouldnt be any in or out for 90 days

I suppose that would be true for Angerforge. RIP.

It’s about 100ms difference for us, so ye. I understand why east coast would seem a better option, but I totally understand with the wide variety of the world these two PvP servers are catering to, why they’re both on west coast.

i bet you also believe the WHO and CDC as well…

Blizzard had to open xfers
How else will they claim your $25 in 3 months?

The only reason 2x west coast makes sense is if they plan to merge them… but i have my doubts blizzard is smart enough to think of that on their own.

It’s a PvP server… you don’t want PvP… don’t be on a PvP server…
