THey only have 2 server locations and the East one is actually located in the Central time zone.
WoW Server loocations for North America and Oceanic are located in the following cities .
West server base : Los Angeles CA.
East Server base : Chicago Ill.
Oceanic : Sydney Aus.
Ok for those complaining about needing one in CTZ I take it Chicago is too far for all of you.
This is so exciting! How does one reserve a name? I would like to do that. Does it save when you make a character on the stress test for the name or do you have to do it on a certain post?
Iām central now as well and my WoW retail servers are pacific with a 30ms latency on average.
I would have actually given Blizzard a thumbs up if they named the server āMankirkās Wifeā inatead.

Then it would be too easy to find her.

Derka - you seem to be they type of guy who hears āThe birds are walking out of the purple hole in moon landā when somebody says āI saw a satellite last night and it was coolā. I find it creepy that you think people are going to chastise you ingame and are so worried about it. that you nerdrage. Go take a powder.
Is this confirmed or just speculation?
Currently, there are several retail East NA servers that are physically hosted in LA. So I donāt think it is wise to assume the physical location based on the timezone of the server.

Weāve discussed this previously. This is where population caps get introduced on the āfullā realms and free character transfers are made available.
Yes, and at least on aussie server we had a constant conversation in chat about how much we missed and loved vanilla - horde and allie side. People were talking about subbing for 6 mos and 1 yr to save money. It was glorious.
With layering what determines āfullā ?
Plusā¦didnāt most people say the tourists would leave within a week or two ?
With this decision itās clear that Blizzard still believe we think we do, but we donāt. They must be convinced that Classic is a subpar product and hundreds of thousands of people will quit within weeks never to return.
I believe that top brass at Blizzard are deluded and actually think BfA is a superior product to Classic. They see Classic as a drive by cash in that wonāt last rather then a full fledged game that will sustain itself long term.

Yes please can we have this information? I do not want to roll on a server located in Los Angeles, Iāve had nothing but problems when I did. The various connections between me and there are not good.

āThe server that shall not be namedā still has 10k+ logging in one year later.
Either way the Classic servers are going to be in one of those 2 data centers.
The main 3 servers I use Gilneas/Elune(Horde) and Stormrage (Alliance) are both located in Chicago and are all ET servers. I Live in Arizona closer to the L.A. data center yet I have no major problems playing on a Eastern server outside of the occasional wifi drop but thatās a me problem.
I guess far earlier than expected. Realm transfers active within a week vs active a month or two later.
All of us East Coasters who want RP-PvP are going to be there and with todays infrastructure there shouldnāt be any real lag problems.
