:D -- At this point i think they should definitely bring down the server capacities. This is ridiculous. Queues and/or more realms are way better than not being able to play the game. | ||

(I count half a kill if an ally helped me, a third if 2 allies helped me, etc, and watch Kills/(Kills+Deaths) ratio i recommend it's fun to do. not counting grey kills or killing greys but i do count deaths by skull lul) | ||

It's just a combination of several things that make the "experience" of classic a lot different than vanilla, even if the gameplay is identical. I'm still enjoying farming and looking forward to more instances with a closed group of friends, some of which haven't played WoW in a very long time, or are brand new. I enjoyed leveling for the most part because I had the luxury of flexible hours and could avoid the busier times (not just for ganking necessarily but crowded questing areas).

Do they just not really like the game in general? If you're referring to "hates world pvp period but still rolled on a PvP server" I don't think that many exist. I'd assume most of us expected (or just remembered) a different experience than we're getting. It makes perfect sense NOW why it's so different and such a mess, but honestly when we rolled fresh at launch we didn't even think twice, of course we'd go pvp, our old server was pvp and it was fun, etc. Few of us considering transferring to pve, costs money, etc. but others like "meh ride it out, it'll just be a couple weeks" kind of like the queues were. We'll see. I like pvp, we're really looking forward to BGs, and though I probably died more often than I won while leveling, I still accepted it and enjoyed quite a few of the fights (and especially revenge or winning when you get jumped at really low HP). But this is not the same. I'm not going to jump around spamming CoC in a raid to scrape together rank 3.

This could be true too. I didn't play until I think shortly after AQ launch back in Vanilla. I can't imagine it was quite this crazy with the different population sizes, but it probably would have changed my expectations going in. Edit: Horde Incendius NA, for the record | ||

It's still pretty good just wish there was a higher cap like 10K. +shorter response time from server would be great^^ WoW has never managed those player counts, only private servers did. Can only speculate as to why, but meanwhile i think that server capacities should be further limited so that literally gamebreaking lag isn't a daily event. There has actually been a MAJOR regression here because my server worked flawlessly with layers on, even launch day. The best server performance i've ever seen from WoW in 14 years. Phase 2 comes, layers off, whole zones are unplayable with it taking 30 seconds to begin casting a spell and everybody running on the spot. If you're referring to "hates world pvp period but still rolled on a PvP server" I don't think that many exist. I'd assume most of us expected (or just remembered) a different experience than we're getting. I'm seeing comments like this - "WPVP would be more enjoyable if it wasn't forced upon you when you're just trying to go from Point A to Point B." constantly, which is basically the definition of a Normal server. To clarify, i mean hating the forced PVP in particular. A Normal server is the same as a PVP server other than part of the world (neutral zones) not automatically enabling pvp. | ||

To clarify, i mean hating the forced PVP in particular. A Normal server is just a PVP server where pvp mode is opt-in in neutral zones; the other conditions still stand. Oh yeah, that's just weird. If you feel like wpvp is forced then don't play pvp, simple. I haven't seen comments like that myself but you're definitely right there lol. I played on pve servers starting in Wrath when I rerolled to play with my fiancee. I don't have some hardcore stance on "pvp is the proper way to play" or anything weird, just genuinely enjoyed it back in actual vanilla and therefore didn't think twice when it came to classic. If I knew servers would look/feel like they do now back when classic launched I would have talked my group into Normal in a heartbeat lol. rip | ||

Btw on private servers they were also using increased view distance which was interesting. | ||
