Nostalrius Vanilla Hype - Gone the way of the Titanic

[Kyanion]

Pretty much, Vanilla was a well oiled machine, most game issues that have been found since have been due to additional features added by expansions..

I hope you aren't too serious. Nost had many bugs. Hell I don't even think they managed to get simple escort quests working properly from what I've heard.

And frankly I don't see why Vanilla servers would take anything away from anybody. Once they get their codes and everything up to snuff, either by Nostalrius taking complete control of the Legacy department, or by having a few coders assisting/overseeing Nostalrius, it couldn't be much upkeep on a server(s) that won't need any content updates. Once it's live Nostalrius can focus on fixing, if they haven't already after coding was completed, any bugs that will remain.

After everything is all said and done and Vanilla servers are good to go, Vanilla servers will keep some people occupied in 'content gaps'. Add a subscription requirement (Not an additional fee) to access these servers, and they'll retain a few (10-100) thousand subs. It's not that bad of an idea, really.

LOL you can't be serious. You think they'd just let the Nost people run everything because they managed to get an emulator running? Come on now.

Sure, impossible




Can't we just have the original Vanilla launcher with no Battle.net integration?

I dont have one either :P

And I've had plenty of people in the megathread discuss bugs they encountered. You think it was fully bug free and that is on you. Don't make it sound like it is some undisputable fact.

They could easily implement classic servers, other games have proven its easily done. I dont believe for a second that they dont have each build archived

You show us one case please where this was done where the game had to be integrated into something like battlenet, tia!

i never said it was bug-free, but you implied it was riddled with bugs stick to your own logic or dont bring it up
