New Realms for WoW Classic, Worgen/Goblin Heritage Armor Update, DLC #691

You think? I honestly got it at first to limit traffic, but now that they are opening new realms and begging people to go over... they should at least give everyone 1 extra name slot to help encourage the spreading out.

those predictions were always unfounded to begin with lol its not gonna happen. Classic will surge and then die off. Some people will play on downtime and die hards will play forever but its never gonna overtake retail

Why you don't include in the news the opening of 2 German realms as well?

Oh my god, this is gold.

That makes no sense. You don't need more chars just because there are more realms. Pick one an play on it. If you switch, delete your old ones.

On the other hand, they opened a new PvP realm a few days ago, and now are doing another one, which suggests to me that the previous one actually filled up.

This one will too. I was just tossing out a suggestion that would help that realm fill up. 1 extra character with the proper name could be incentive enough to pack up and main there, for some people.

We think it’s really cool to have these memorable questing experiences that go along with and encapsulate the moment when you inherit your Heritage armor.

I can't recall any questline regarding the heritage armors...

Lol.

They can "strongly urge" all they like, players won't risk it. There are years and years of Retail examples where players went to less populated servers by Blizzard recommendation only to then be stuck on or forced to pay for a move.

Allied races I don't recall as having questlines, but the others that have gotten theirs so far had a questline leading up to the heritage armor reward. I only did the Tauren one so far but it was great.

Yeh....I will stay on Herod. It will be THE pvp US server. I fell for the "move to avoid Queues" once before, landed me on a ghost realm that I had to pay to flee.

The problem is that everyone wants to be on _THE REALM_, so most people are reluctant to move so they can be with whatever top guild/pvpers/where the crow flies. There's only so much the infrastructure and the users can handle without sharding.

The original races get questlines for their heritage armor. Allied races just get a quest to go back to their starting area once they hit level 110 to receive their HA alongside a short RP dialogue with their racial leader.

That would be my preference as well.

I started WoW when AQ gates were being opened in my first realms. I'm not going back. I don't care about Classic problem.

OT to main page news:
I would like to see at least a WIP of the Worgen heritage armor. If it's meh, then knowing it will be delayed won't matter. :P

I'm not saying I don't remember there being a questline. I just don't remember that questline as being memorable.

i dono what that has to do with what i said but I think classic will be wildly popular but i also am not stupid and realize that server pops will level out after the normies get spent in about a month or two.
