That makes no sense to remove the cap on char creation before launch. every fricking realm is going to say high because people will have chars on multiple servers trying to play on the " lowest pop". let's fix it and break it again.

I don’t think that’s how it works...think the population is determined accounts not characters...only 1 character can play at a time per account so it’d be silly to factor in every character on all accounts for the population

right. so if my one account has characters on every server, they'd add one account to each servers populace, no?

They should... but knowing that you can only play on one server at a time... the tags of "full" might not be super indicative of the amount of players actually playing on the server

that's my point. leave the 3 toon cap on until after launch so people can see which realms are actually full, high, or medium.

They're gonna need more servers. WoW Classic will outperform retail at least for a couple weeks ?


I wouldn't be surprised if WoW classic ends up with more players indefinitely.

Some people players who have never played vanilla WoW will probably play out of sheer curiosity, but will find the gameplay too tedious. Some vanilla WoW players will find classic not as fun as they remember.

Eventually though, Blizzard's gonna run out of content to roll out, and people will just get bored.

That’s why I think classic is such a better model...it’s such a slower paced game that just getting to level cap takes a large time commitment and exploring all the dungeon and raid content takes a long amount of time as well...where as in retail once you hit level cap in a day or 2 you just spam lfg and lfr and “experience” all the content with no effort put in at all...ultimately extemely unsatisfying even your casino personal loot with casino stats feels bad

precisely. I quit in 06 because it got too easy and you didn't have to work for much except top tier gear, which i knew would be obsolete in a year when next xpac came out.

What have you ever had to work hard in WoW for besides the top tier stuff?

it's not so much that it's hard it's that you have to work for it. when you go from making me do a tedious quest chain for a lvl 40 mount and then give them away to people 20 levels lower, it makes you feel like you worked for nothing. All of the attunements will be difficult to obtain unless you're in a top guild. There will be no twinks, making battlegrounds more enjoyable and less of a spamfest of try hards.


I like feeling like I earned something.

To that point, vanilla WOW caused you to immerse into the world. You explored, read every line of quests, talked to every NPC, jumped around Ironforge or Stormwind talking in general chat....spent countless hours at the auction house, felt like you were a part of something when you cleared a zone for the first time with strangers. The game revolutionized MMRPGs for a reason. Anyways, 9 hours, 36 minutes til I queue up on Herod!!! 22 hours 30 minutes until I actually get to play

They are lifting the 3 toon limit today, so I will probably create a character on one of the new servers they are bring online today as well, just to go play the game

I'm probably going to switch to Incendius, I don't know if I want to come from work this week and sit in queue for 5+ hours. If Herod is only like 2 hours I'll probably stick it out
