WoW Classic - Realm List Populations Updated -- 28 October
Originally Posted by Blizzard (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)
A few minutes ago, we enacted a change to how the populations are calculated in the WoW Classic realm list. Since shortly after the launch of WoW Classic, the realm list population labels have indicated real-time population levels.

Now, the Low/Medium/High/Full labels are based on peak population over the last 7 days. We believe this provides a more-useful picture of a realm’s population to players who are making decisions about which realm to play on or transfer to.

The realms which have not yet moved to one layer will continue to be marked “Layered”.

    This is my first RTS beta, but still, I think a single player mode vs a bot would allow for more testing

    Have you updated your graphic drivers? It's reccomended to do so before playing

    How did they manage to make the character model graphics looks worse than a 17 year old game?

    The problem was actually sorted by turning off Occlusion and Shadows :P


    And yes my drivers are up to date.

    it says that it's still pretty volatile. The game runs fine in my computer but has some sort of lag on the menus for some reason

    I bought Spoils of War last year, beta is activated in my launcher. No email so far.

    Make sure you have Warcraft ticked in your beta profile:

    Slightly less disappointed that I didn't get a beta invite, now.

    Remastered Aeon of Strife would be an SC1 thing though. Maybe someone actually did it already

    And warcraft III at the time, was recycled content. just in a new engine.

    new ideas and innovation come from within, if you don't believe there are any, why would anyone else be able to find it.

    but seriously, we've been doing the same thing everyday for how long now....

    Generally, in Betas, they slowly open up content little by little as to limit/focus the testing on a couple things at a time.
