Classic WoW server. Where you going?

[Convict]

the brand new servers they just opened up for launch because of how packed servers like herod were already full too ffs

If anyone's ever played on the opening day of a super popular private classic server, like say, Nostalrius, then it's easy for them to recall people waiting in huge lines for quest items or quest mobs in noob zones...

Oh wait. This is RETAIL CLASSIC where it's happening on every server.

Hard pass for the first 3 weeks, if not longer. Eff that.

Anyone see the queue times?

Kronos 3 had a decent system of quickening respawn times based on # of players present or in zone. Seems would have been a good idea to look at in lieu of sharding or whatever

it's very popular. the WoW gaming community has given Blizzard a massive "fuck you dad", netting them tens of millions of dollars.

504 in queue on Bigglesworth after 2.5 hours. I logged in a minute after launch to an 8500 queue on a Medium server.

I reckon those in queue have to wait until folks level into the next layer.

What's funny is what will potentially happen - they'll have nobody want to join the "dead" new servers and everyone will still want to queue for Herod etc to play with their pals :/

My friends swapped to Bigglesworth last minute and I was able to get right in at launch since I was waiting on character select. However, some of my friends who couldn't get on until 2-3 hours later, were sitting in 25k queues with estimated wait times of over 1,000 minutes. Though if they just waited in queue, it would've been a lot sooner than 16 hours.

I think they're currently at 29 total servers after adding a few more. We'll see what the final tally is.

Got into Herod this morning after being number 28712 in queue last night with a wait time of 24 minutes, lol that quickly changed to 544 minutes

I'm sure they will all be playable in the long run -- But I'm going Grobbulus instead of Whitemane (the Main West PvP server). As much as all miss all the joke potential with "Whitemane."

I expect classic WoW to dwarf any EQ projects during their launch.
