You heard it here first.

AM throwing in the towel and making an announcement that they are moving their attention fully to the upcoming WoW server release.

God's Speed, men.

Why pick when we live in an age where we can play classic wow and classic EQ at the same time =D

Classic WoW will be dead inside 3 months when casuals realize they don't have that kind of time anymore and Activi$ion Bli$$ard monetizes a cash shop that wasn't there in classic, selling mounts you'd find in the WoW TCG...and probably XP potions etc.

I mean WoW private servers have been really popular for years now despite Blizzards best efforts to shut them down. So I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that WoW classic is going to do just fine.

I'm sure there will be a lot of people who play for about a week and then quit because the game is a lot less forgiving than they remember, but there will still be plenty of people playing it.

I got absolutely destroyed as a nub warrior on a private server. It's nothing like live where you just pull a bunch and clear zones out solo. What will kill my interest is the monotony of doing molten core, onyxia and BRD again and again.

private servers are free, wow classic costs money

personally i think classic wow is way less unforgiving than classic EQ. my problem with it is that it is, if i remember correctly, bad.

Absolutely destroyed mean you got killed then had to run back to your corpse as a ghost? damn bro, that's rough as hell.

Maybe they will sell an end of game token to players so they don't have to repeat stuff they didn't find interesting to begin with. Print it out and place it in a frame. Hang it in your office next to the eagle scout certificate, college diploma(s) and that picture taken with your childhood hero.

Sorry you can't solo an MMORPG, that is why Necros were pariahs in classic.

Yeah, keep reading into my comment as if I'm ten layers deep. It means I died not expecting my opponent to put up a fight. A lot will remember their time playing WoW with heirloom gear which completely trivialized content. Not the inconvenient twenty minute ghost runs, poor itemization in raids, hour long respawn on black lotus for flasks, etc. There is a lot to enjoy and leveling is a big part of it because of how different it is from live.

what about pbae ?? chardok ae ?? that didnt ruin this server for you, or sky pulling
Ah yes, all those things relevant to the conversation. Your straw man argument needs some substance.

Thanks bro. I ended up rolling a different class more suited to my play style and had a lot of fun!

Yea, I'll probably play casually, but I can't really see myself grinding raids on classic WoW, the raids by todays standards are extremely boring.

PvP could be a lot of fun but I was more of a fan of arena's than I was battlegrounds, and dueling though. World PvP will likely suck one faction will largely out number the other faction and the biggest zerg will win.

My two brothers, uncle, two boys, and I will be rolling horde. Probably won't be fast paced on the leveling front to hang though.

I watched Asmongold for the first time the other week. He's like a bad liquor, going to take some time adjusting my palete to.

I just learned about his stream and videos, its got good info on it but he's definitely something else. Trying to learn a bunch about the game from all these streamers

This is the best part about classic wow and green, people are coming together to play old games they love.

sadly yes this has happened on every private vanilla wow server ive played and I played on almost all of them. Its sad because I've been really hyped for this but im afraid even a retail vanilla server will suffer the same problem.

the problem is the preconceived notion that horde = the cool kids and alliance = dumb little kids RPing as females. This has created a huge population disparity among pvpers on every server I've played on. There's other factors too like racials, etc, but i think those are relatively insignificant in comparison. This usually results in instant BG ques for alliance where you end up getting fucking stomped into the ground because half your alliance team is either AFK honor grinding or not trying to actually win at all. On horde the ques are obscenely long then when you finally que into a BG it lasts like 7 minutes and you completely curbstomp the alliance team but its not fun or challenging at all.

Too many gamers have gigantic ego's for no reason at all and can't even deal with losing a WSG match so they all roll the safe bet and go horde where they will win most games, even if its boring as fuck.
I am trying to be really hyped for the vanilla wow server despite that and just hope more people will be willing to roll alliance to have a more even and fun PVP environment

My experience on private servers is the exact opposite of yours. There's a line a mile long of people wanting to play androgynous floppy-eared freaks and gross little gnomes. Horde are always woefully outnumbered and outgunned.

I'll play for sure, but I'll likely quit when they introduce the albino elves and horde gets its influx of anime fans and assorted other pedos.

idk how many private servers you played on but it cant have been many because that is patently false. Like I said I played on almost all the popular ones to come out in the last 10 years all the way back to fuckin scriptcraft and feenix and the horde almost always massively outpopulated alliance on the pvp side of things (I cant stress enough the PVP part, I know the alliance had more overall numbers in the "general" population but like 1/2 of them were farm alts or pve carebears that never pvp'd so battlegrounds and world pvp were usually very terrible for alliance PVP'ers). The line to play fucking undead frost mage was way longer than any of the lines to play gross little gnomes and you know it

The only server I played that this was not the case was the anathema server where it seemed to be flipped and there was more ally pvpers but that was the only case I saw in the past 10 years out of probably a dozen of the servers I played on.
