To me this just mean that Blizzard still cares more about streamers and less about the community. Why not let everyone play until this date? If I didn’t already sub, id actually be incline to no longer go back to classic with the amount of player base hate we seem to be getting.
LOL
How do you know what they would have done for a “real” stress test…
Maybe they just wanted people to have some more fun playing classic?
Maybe they wanted to test less stressful times.
<by initiating a stress test with limited notification… +1 internets for you>
Maybe they wanted to punish people like you for having weekend plans.
<lol… how cute you try and make it about me… I was commenting on their piss poor planning on notifying people of it>
Maybe Blizzard should have looked at all of our calendars to see if we made weekend plans beforehand.
<lol. again you try making a statement of their planning about me… another +1 internets for you>
Maybe we should stop whining about a beta test that doesn’t involve some people.
<where did I whine… i COMMENTED on the fact that the stress test has poor advance notice so some wouldn’t then get involved.>
Did you really type that? Man! the salt is real in here.
Blizzard has beta access to make the game better for you.
Blizzard is not out to ruin your lives people, get over yourselves.

More clarification please, how are the name servers different from game/world servers? real question
If you highlight people’s comments above the text box you type in then click on the Quote button, you get these nice quotes:
The extension of the stress test was not given advance notice, but the test itself seemed to have enough notice.
EDIT: do you really think Blizzard did this just so people wouldn’t participate? Why bother having a stress test at all in that case. It seems like people think Blizzard is trying to actively ruin their own game and subsequently many forum goer’s lives in the process.
ya but 10% player base vs. 90% streamerbase, that’s what “most” are mad about
The login servers are physically separate servers that hook to the character DB for a realm. They are used for user authentification, realm selection, and character selection or creation for that realm.
Once you create or choose your character and enter the realm you are handed off to another “set” of servers.
The world server. Usually one for each continent. 5 man instances, and raids.
So we were hitting the login servers hard during the name reservation and never touched the world servers.
Hope that makes sense 
EDIT Also to add. The login servers typically seldom have people on them for very long. You log in and you move on.
The ques are part of the login server as well when it communicates with the world server to find out if there are enough system resources to allow more on the world server where people obviously do hang out for a while.
It’s because those who play beta are going to level all over again(especially the streamers if they want views), and the content is going to be stale to both the streamers and viewers by the time the game launches.
People aren’t going to be as excited if beta goes too close to launch.
you completely missed the whiners point though…
Hail Reaper!

The notice of the test came out the same week of the stress test - what was it Tuesday? That’s not great marketing or communication.
I never said ANYTHING about their motives or “just so wouldn’t participate” . You’re reading far too much because of your perceived notion of my motives.
The pre-planned reopening of the Beta It’s a very effective marketing campaign. They want to make money off of the product.
Even if I was in beta (again WHY IS THIS NOT IN THE BETA SUB) why would i burn my self on classic two weeks before its out.

invite more or riot reeeeeeeeee

Yeah theres a problem. i cant login.
True but short sighted for there long term burned base I suppose
Look, I’m all for watching people in the beta when I’m not, I don’t care cause it comes out in 2 weeks anyways. I’ll have plenty of time to play it then, but not doing another few waves of invites or even just not making it an open beta is eyebrow raising. They should add more people.
Kaivax, could we have a sticky (pretty please?) for this post: <Realm Discord Servers for NA/EU/OCE> ✨
Yes I did type that. They just had a beta where everyone was invited. Why couldn’t they just let everyone get to lvl 45 and have the OPEN test go until 16th?
Why did they limit everyone to 15?
Seriously this is just bullcrap and blizzard knows it, you know it too but your not willing to admit that apparently.

Open beta access, or gtfo.
edit: What? you guys didn’t like till only 15?
Fixed that for you.
I don’t want Blizzard to gtfo and leave us without classic in 2 weeks because you are demanding open beta.
