Is this where we will be able to reserve our characters or simply a launch test only?
Gotta love those minimum specs. Even with the modernisation of systems, the machines we originally ran Vanilla on will just about do ā¦ good times and so unusual in this day and age to actively support integrated graphics. Well done 
i buy my sub for 8.2 to play a bit and carry over to july 27 it ended just recently
8.2 was a terrible joke

Yeah the laptop I stopped using after 8 years of use recently due to several parts failures could have played this. It wasnāt even a good laptop back then when I got it either.
It was like a late Aprilās foolās day joke
How can the data from this stress test be accurate with peoplesā school and work schedules? 11 am is in the middle of the average personās professional routine. Weekend saturday and sunday would make more sense for accurate numbers. But glad itās happening definitively none the less

I think theyāre also taking into account European and global members that will be testing as well, this time around. I think the last test was around the same time, though.
Hi, Kaivax. Thank you for the update.

This made me laugh. Well done, Blizz.
Hi! I canāt find WoW Classic on my launcher to install - maybe a glitch?
the system requirements mention āORā intel hd 4000 but itās not clear on how much video memory would be needed, considering the other two gpu comparisons were 512 MB. i do meet the minimum cpu and ram requirements of having an i5-4200m which iām running with hyperthreading disabled and 8 GB of system ram but itās unclear on how well my system will handle classic with just 192 MB of video memory usable by the intel hd 4600 graphics with the lenovo l440.
i guess iāll be likely bottlenecked a bit in certain areas that would need maybe up to 256 MB of video memory in relation to what was used back then for higher settings smoothly which typically was something like a geforce 6800 gt 256 MB, and as a result, my fps may drop to hopefully no lower than like 40 fps or so. in retail, i did comment on this that i was able to get it to run most of the time in classic zones that is from 55-60 fps in westfall and elwynn forest ( outside major population places ), rarely going lowering than like 40 fps, except for like stormwind.
it does say 4 GB ram for integrated graphics such as intel hd graphics, but i think this may be a bit overoptimistic in the sense that they presume that if the system has 4 GB of ram, then the system would automatically default the video memory usable up to 256 MB? some systems might only use half of the this depending on the manufacturer.
anyone gonna be playing classic with similar specs as mine or lower?
Brilliant - thank you, Kaivax!
Iāll be able to test the Classic Client on the new Laptop I bought for my 6 month overseas trip just a few days before I head out! It has a whopping 512MB of dedicated video ram! 
I was nervous what the requirements were going to be, but this is pretty amazing!
A 6 month European holiday AND Classic WoW to keep me busy on the quiet nights? Bliss!
