cry more faggot
just play it tomorrow

because its launch day and every single server has hour long queues, regardless of making more servers. also real talk this is going to actually kill retail because ain't nobody going to even think about progressing in that boring tripe after this. and I used to be a mythic raider in a top guild and quit shortly into BfA in disgust after seeing just how bad its gotten.

So? That doesn't matter. Why would you open more servers?

This is the most hyped launch in the history of MMOs and you're all just saying "play it tomorrow" or "wait until the weekend"

Do you guys not see how fucking ridiculous that is?

>maintenance tuesday

>repeat this shit again tomorrow

>can't sit in queue and play bfa simultaneously
this kills bfa

I don't think anyone ever said it was DOA. I know for sure people are confident that it won't make it past a quarter.

We all knew there would be queues, but it feels like they underestimated how many people would want to play, by several orders of magnitude. It seems they truly didnt anticipate how many people would want to play this on day one

It’s not an excuse when it’s the reality that had always been and always will be. Don’t like it, don’t play. And stop acting like shit should just magically work perfectly. You’re one of those cunts who say “but it’s 2019 why is this happening?”

>and the goal post moving begins

Low pop servers have zero wait, medium servers only have like 10 minute waits.

they didnt want to waste resources on something that will be dead a year from now

Probably because the initial hype will die off later

bfa is so fucking boring and easy its essentially a non-game. if anything they should start porting some modern features into classic like new models and graphics (optional of course) and just ditch retail entirely because nobody's gonna be playing that shit from here on out. and if they are they're going to be wondering what the fuck they're even playing it for when the superior version is available.

people don't realize it but modern WoW is literally fucking kill now because of this, and its been long overdue.

Its a fucking game we payed for, maybe we should expect it to work

they still think classic will fail

Anyone still going whitemane? Stuck at 17k

They did. They just don't want to have as many servers up that will meet the demand for release hype, only for them to end up being dead in a few months. They're trying to avoid the problem Retail has where there are dozens of severs that are completely dead

The burst of hype and newbies saying "I love this! wow!" will die fast when they aren't level 40 in a week and still have no mount

the real problem is you cant even talk to NPCs because too many people are trying to talk to them

is their a classic wowhead or database?

>moving goalposts
WoW will be dead soon guys, for real this time. well in a way you actually are right, retail WoW will be dead soon unironically

dont pretend that tons of people didnt re-sub just for classic

queue position 10k... home...

lol in 6 months only the streamer server will have medium pop, with the rest being low or "new player friendly" ie not another soul

Classic servers won't be down for maintenance tomorrow

This is fucking disgusting

Hows EU queues on the big servers?

What's the most based EST server bros? Skeram, Herod or Faerlina?

Explain what happened?

because they don't want a dozen dead realms when you niggers leave in a week

Fortnite has 10 million players logging in and playing simultaneously with over 250 million total accounts.

I think if Epic Games can manage 10 million players playing at a single time, Blizzard could have figured this out.

herod has been fucking based so far

eceleb faggotry is not video games

How is this any different than just waiting for it to respawn? So you got it faster? so what?

>tfw rolled on a realm that was medium pop during name reservation, was supposed to have little to no queue

Right now every single server has 10 times the population of the biggest vanilla server. You are saying the population will drop by 95-99%?

C O P E

>tfw "warcrack" wasnt a joke
>tfw warcrack was inspired by the crack epidemic ruining families, jobs, friendships, relationships, crack leads to not eating, multiple nightlong binges, irritability, addiction
welcome home boys

Because there is zero point paying extra for something that will only happen for a few days. It's the reason why literally every game ever experiences this. Devs are preparing for when things get stable, not for when the entire population is all trying to login at the same second. That's just wasted resources for every other moment of the game's lifespan.

Blizzard wanted to create Classic to shove it in the player’s faces to show them nobody wanted it. It was their own ego. Deep down they knew this would happen. Tell me I’m wrong.

Go to bed boomie :^)

But Epic is bankrolled bu tencent, which in turn is literally funded directly by chinese government.

Been waiting 2 hours from 17k to 9k im going to kill myself

there is literally software and servers that handle flexible loads now

blizzard is just being jewish

They did, but if there's no wait on launch day it will make it look like DOA

give me a (you) if you've fapped while waiting for this queue

Attached: 1566868276092.gif (224x224, 2.25M)

Why spend money on servers when the game's population will tank in a matter of weeks? Are you retarded?

There's no point in even playing one of those realms if you can't get in tonight. They won't have the same quality of players as the bigger servers that launched first.

im fapping right now

if they truly believed nobody would want classic they wouldn't have panicked and opened up a bunch more servers at the last minute, made layering to try to control the massive influx of players that of course wouldn't be playing, remove skeletons to try to control abuse form people that wouldn't be playing, and STILL FUCKING FAIL REGARDLESS OF IT ALL. 15 YEARS LATER AND THEY MAKE THE SAME GOD DAMN MISTAKE!!!

Did you guys sign up for those new serves they put up? Like 4 new US servers. I only had a roughly 300 person wait.

i dont get it?

because their turd (which is vanilla too) would mean they made very bad decisions throught those 15 years. It's fight so they wont be ashmed of their abomination of game.

I have all night. I waited 5 hours, I can wait a couple more. I just hope these queues will go away soon.
I was worried about this. I figured it'd be worth it to beat the queue but now I'm not so sure

there was only 1 low pop server on NA and 2 med pop, one being the RPPVE server.
Every other server was full with 2 or 3 high pop.
There were NOT enough servers on NA at least

The streamers asked for invite to a group on another layer to kill the rare spawn he had already killed.
Rare hopping didn't exist in vanilla and is a big thing when comes to farm mobs and rare mats, like the BLACK LOTUS.

Every server is "medium" pop right now and AFAIK every one has a queue. It doesn't make any sense.
worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/game/status/classic-us

Rattlegore was medium when I logged in. Am I going to have to wait in queues tomorrow to play? fuck

Is anyone else stubbornly sticking to their server because they were one of the first to reserve a character on it, and just want everyone who joined after it was high/full to fuck off?
I'm just going to roll another character on a lower server until Whitemane is empty enough to get in.

>all these idiots getting memed into playing on the new realms that will be dead in a month

That's clearly out of date. Rattlegore isn't even on that list

>clicking "change realm" and choosing the same realm again lets you skip the queue
wish I had found that out earlier

Can anyone not playing now post the queue sizes for each of the servers?
I'm getting pretty close to just switching to a low pop one right now

You jest, but Classic+ might legitimately give us worgen after Naxx. The Seige of Gilneas could be a raid and the restoration of Quel'Thalas could be a second priority.

Have Blood Elves join the alliance this time and have Worgen join the Horde since their fleeing into Silverpine and doing battle against Arugal's forces would put them with the forsaken, and don't bring up any fucking retarded Scythe of Elune bullshit this time.

Yeah they said they'll fix it soon dont worry

This is a self fulfilling prophecy. Of course they wont be playing, they have to wait 3-5 hours to queue into the server and likely will get disconnected at random. Intentionally fucking with your consumers tends to piss them off I hear.

Anyone have a clip of Asmon DC?

I remember the 1.5k queues back in vanilla took like 2.5 hours and it was a bunch of afk people too.

>now he's crying about "what about muh streamer privilige????"
delicious
i don't even care about wow, this shitshow's really entertaining to observe

im guessing the streamer had one of his viewers invite him into a layer which had the rare mob he needed to progress, instead of waiting for it to spawn like everyone else

Because merging servers is desperate shit user.

Dual monitors exist for a reason.

>Not masturbating while leveling
Come on user, that's what everyone else is doing in line

It estimates turnover as well as length of queue. People on asmon's server connect and disconnect more often than the people on your server.

If it's the same server then I have no fucking idea. Blizzard is shit.

Dude literally can't even care enough to spell. Thousands of quality streamers on twitch and some balding manlet with a whore girlfriend is breaking the rules and twitch is turning an eye to it.

God twitch is a shit show. Can we just reset the fucking internet I want to go back.

because Blizzard is retarded and doesn't want you passing the time how you like.

Has WOW changed that much for people to consider "classic" as a different game from today?

yes

And the changes made the game worse? Or do people just want to play for nostalgia and in 3 months the classic servers will be shut down?

Why are you niggers joining full servers and then complaining they're full?

HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAGAA1G

The EU server I picked, I ran my character to Org and it lookedlike I was the only person there. Maybe the sub shit going down might explain it, or the fact it was 4 am

I'm really scared I picked one of the servers that will die because of this.

most changes to WoW have been a bad thing in the grand scheme of things. There are a few that are totally good, but the vast majority slowly made the game worse as more and more changes piled up

You didn’t. Eventually all of the people waiting to get into Herod will learn the server cap is 2,500 people and they literally have to wait for every single person on the server to log off 10 times before they can play, people will migrate to other servers

That's generous. They've been claiming to be too poor to upgrade their infrastructure to 3rd world standards for 20 years. I'm beginning to suspect that they're lying.

That was the population cap in vanilla, look it up. Blizzard did say they increased it, but they mentioned not wanting to increase it too much because they’re worried of servers being too big to fit on a single layer, which it needs to be when phase 2 launches

I bet some asshole is already level 60.

I'd be surprised if this interest lasted. Lots of people simply don't know how bad classic was, they will drop this faster than the fist of the north stare once the honeymoon phase is over in a week or so and realize how garbage it is.

They are, it's just the wait times.

yes but luckily my queue was only 30 minutes so i got to log in pretty much right after nutting

You guys aren't very bright are you?

Firemaw was supposed to be an extra server to help unload a bit of players from the original 4. Not become the server with the highest number of players of them all!!

Then play on Mograine or one of the other new servers.

Everyone is still in Durotar, and speedfags are powerleveling in Barrens.
I'm honestly thinking about slowing down a lot for casuals to catch up. The powerlevelers are pretty much retail tier autists who barely manage to say hello.

paypigs

WoW told me my 20,000 person queue would be 5 min. I should have screen capped it.

Thanks

I got disconnected for no reason and now the queue is 2 hours haha

Arrogance and Fragile Egos. More of that you think you do but you don’t mindset. They REFUSE to believe people would prefer and come back to classic wow in droves. It would admit that retail is a fuckup, that the last 10 years were a mistake.

That is part of the classic experience tho

Fairbanks only has a 2k queue. Within an hour, I'm in.

What's wrong, isn't this the nostalgic WoW experience?

This is MUCH easier than actual classic launch.

I used to be pretty heavy into the exploration community in vanilla. I met a guy on Illidan who claimed to be Nogg. He did show me some exploitation spots but he was a dick about it. I remember one day he kept trading me 1000g for an epic mount and cancelling it really quickly as a joke to taunt me. One day I clicked yes before he stopped it and got the 1000 gold. He went apeshit and demanded it back and reported me, but he traded it.

And that's how I got my epic mount.

It's no the physial act of transferring peoplr that would be the pain part.

Would it, though? Easy as piss to announce 'these two servers are dead, all you on Shittown are logging into Poopville starting next maintenance. All done.

The only reason retail has this problem is because it's dogshit. Again, blizzard and their retardo fans can't understand why retail fails and they see everything trough the lens of retail.
Apparently it's NORMAL for a game server to become dead after a month. ASSUME all games are like this, because there's NO WAY blizzard could do wrong is there?

If the playerbase drops off then I have to get into a high server now so when it falls it will be at least medium. If the playerbase only increases then I need to join a low server so I can enjoy medium population later on. But going the wrong way would be catastrophic.

every server still has a 300 minute queue, so goodluck getting in there

Just say you need to relog for some reason, as so very often happens (just relog bro that will fix it!), does that mean you're pushed to the back of the queue again for an hour? Or do you get a grace period of staying in if you quickly log out?

Bullshit, I got disconnected from Grobbulus and logged in just fine.

Vanilla pservers have shown half the playerbase drops off by 25 and then half of whats left drops by 40. Vanilla lives and dies by its community so making 40 servers would just mean in a month 37 of them would be dead. Dead dead, not Yea Forums dead.

Blizzard showing zoomers a glimpse of socialism.

Because this happens with every MMO launch.
>People get hyped for months/years
>Hype cannot be contained
>Everyone and their Grandma wants to play
>1000s in queue
>After a week the queues are gone
>Most people have already quit
>Servers stabilize
The alternative is making a bunch of servers and then you have a bunch of dead servers instead of a few highly populated servers.

Why not make double the servers, but make it clear that in two weeks after launch they are going to combine every pair of servers into new servers (based on how best this would equalize out the pop and faction balance)?

Server merges cause a lot of problems which is why they're generally avoided unless a server is really dead. Plus a big selling point of Classic is the server community, assuming you can actually get in then this is the best time probably to actually interact with people and make friends.

because you dont need to queue up again if you relog after disconnecting

t. Hasn't seen a single mythic boss in his entire life. not even the first one

Wrong, Retail won't die but neither will classic, classic will definitely create a community split but you have to be a special kind of retard to believe that people will mass migrate to classic, leaving behind their precious characters and rare collectables they've spent several parts of their years gathering. That aside, classic doesn't even have interesting and complex boss encounters, nor fun and cool combat abilities that have been added to the game over the years, not to mention the wider selection of races and classes, classic will have its fans while retail will have their fans

I believe it defaults to fullscreen windowed mode. switch it to a different mode and it'll do what you want
