Please quote where I agreed with your argument.
And also btw, let us NOT assume that just because something is an issue for players that it isn’t relevant to the game. After all, any good game is designed WITH players in mind. Not to be dictated by players but influenced by.
The challenge remains open, name one actual in game issue with the boost.
You being upset because someone didn’t level the “right” way isn’t an in game issue.
I would point to the points in my OP.
Also, your belief system on what constitutes as a ‘game problem’ incoherent with the reality of game design because game problems are also player problems and player problems are also game problems. Players need a game to play and games need players.
Which are either not issues caused by the boost or just end up as you being upset because of the boost.
So not actual issues with the boost.
don’t be so quick to right out a knee-jerk response and instead take a moment to think.
LOL Your very thread contradicts what you just said here.
You are demanding that the boost be stopped because you feel it’s bad. Your points have not been backed up and have no validity. It’s all feelings.
You used the @stoptheboost hashtag. You are trying to dictate to blizzard what to do.
And I ask again, why are you bothered enough to level a toon on US realms to post this on the forums?
demanding? More like making well thought out arguments that show WHY it shouldn’t be in. Also, I’d argue the boost is blizzard allowing players to dictate changes made to the game because the boost is an entirely new creation put into classic whereas not having it would be doing the game as it was prior.
People who take the boost will be playing the game, not sure what confuses you about that.
It’s a boost to level 58, the bare minimum to enter outlands, where most people will be in TBC.
Wait what? That really happened? That would be next level pathetic lol
This has absolutely no relevancy to ANYTHING I just said.
Most people I’d wager who will be playing TBC substantially will already have the characters necessary to play it.
Who said I levelled it for that purpose? I actually did it because at the time, I planned on moving to the US but then those plans fell through so I ditched the toon very early on. I don’t like playing with high MS.
You have yet to make one well thought out argument.
AND you duck the question again.
WHY ARE YOU HERE?
I can speculate it’s because you simply want to stir the pot and make trouble. Blizzard reads the EU forums just as much as they read the NA. So double posting is, well ya know, against COC.
And now you are starting to understand why the boost is a non issue.
The OP
It isn’t relevant. And besides, I’m not sure what you specifically mean but what I can tell you is I’ve had many questions that sound like that and I’ve answered them many times. I don’t feel an obligation to repeat myself for you.
Not at all. Because as I’ve stuck to from the beginning, there will be a massive spike of TOURISTS who have boosted at launch but what I would consider to be the ‘players’ of TBC will be those who don’t need the boost.
However, that initial spike of tourists will be a problem for the multitude of reasons I brought up in the OP.
you didnt think you’d have high ping going in??
/doubt
Ah well guess we can’t fix the PEBKAC.
Classic had 100% retention right?
Wtf are you even saying? I was rerolling to US in advance of moving to the US so that when playing in the US, I wouldn’t have high ping. Is it that hard to understand? I get the feeling that you are being purposefully obtuse.
We wouldn’t know because blizz don’t release subscriptions numbers anymore because of the utterly pathetic state of retail wow but what I can say is that, on EU at least, we had a multitude of full and high pop realms all the way until early phase 6. Not bad if you ask me.
Seemed pretty straight forward. Sorry I forget its complex to some.
So what are you gonna boost?
nice selective quoting. Obviously trolling…
So classic had 100% retention with no tourists?
Everyone who leveled stayed right? lol
