You're not on the same server is my guess. Maybe a communication issue? I've done the free trial thing with friends twice on multiple servers and never run into this issue.

They are on the same realm, that means server.
@ OP: Perhaps it's a free trial thing, I've never tried the free trial. Have you tried the various chat commands? I.E /w (whisper), etc. I'm not sure if free accounts can use the trade channel, but whisper does work. Try that.

So myself and my friend wanted to do some WoW free trials and long story short one of us has the whole game client and one of us is streaming the game trough the free trial service. Problem is we can't see each other even though we are on the same Realm. Any ideas why not?
Are you absolutely certain you're on the same realm in the same location?
There is no physical restriction between trial accounts and the game as far as running into people goes.... so unless there has been a VERY recent patch that changes this you should be seeing each other just fine.
Make sure that you are both on the same basic servers... IE both in North America or both on the European.

Are you on the same game version? Eu, US, Korea, TW
Are you on the same faction? Horde, Alliance
if those match, you're obviously not on the same realm

I did free trial and played with friends who had subscriptions...
|
i played WoW before but never done the free trial. i've heard that there are some chat limitations though.
|
sounds like you aren't actually on the same realm.

Reminds me of my last relationship =\

if you have a trial acct i dont think you can initiate a whisper, only reply. or you have to have them add you to friends or something. i think it's to prevent spam abuse from trial accts.

stay away from wow while you can
no jokes

Ba-Zing!

Are you going to orgrimmar or somewhere like that with LOTS of people because it could just be a problem with the game not loading everybody
|
Im not sure why, when i tried this with my friends it worked fine. They just had to invite me to groups and shit because i couldnt host them since i was the trail and they had full clients.
