WoW Classic - Burning Crusade Official Blizzard Survey
Yesterday, players on Reddit began reporting that they received an official survey from Blizzard asking questions about a hypothetical Burning Crusade Classic Server. The questions asked are listed below. Thanks to soramac on the classicwow subreddit for the photo!

  • How interested are you in a "Classic" version of Burning Crusade?
  • Thinking about the potential ways a player could start a character in "Classic" Burning Crusade, which of the following would you prefer most?
    • Continue playing my current Classic character on my existing server as it progresses to the Burning Crusade expansion, with the option to transfer to a Classic server that will never progress past level 60.
    • Continue playing my current Classic character on my existing server that will never progress past 60, with the option to transfer to a Burning Crusade server.
    • Start a brand new character from Level 58 on a new Burning Crusade server.
    • Start a brand new character from Level 1 on a new Burning Crusade server.
    • None of the above

March 27, 2020 will be my final day as Diablo Community Manager, and at Blizzard Entertainment. I’m not leaving for any ill reasons; my team here has always been understanding and kind, every developer I’ve had the honor of interacting with has been delightfully passionate, and the decision to leave was ultimately mine alone. I have an opportunity to explore a new and very different adventure, and if you’re curious about that, I’ll share more about it on my personal channels. Sometimes, opportunity presents itself and you just gotta roll the dice.

What I want to focus on is expressing my gratitude to this community. For welcoming me when I stumbled in at the announcement of Reaper of Souls. For making me feel at home as I was trembling on livestream, fighting stage fright while introducing the expansion to the world. For all the smiles, high-fives, hugs, and selfies at conventions (especially BlizzCon). For the absolute conviction and passion for Sanctuary that I see in every player’s post, whether it’s excitement over the latest Season or constructive criticism for your favorite class. Regardless of highs and lows, this is one of the best communities out there, and the heart of it is warm, caring, and filled with people who just want more Diablo.

Thank you for permitting me to be a part of your community. Thank you for reading my weird blogs and tolerating my terrible puns and memes. And thank you for staying awhile to listen. I’ve had an incredible opportunity learn and grow as person that I’ll carry with me the rest of my life, and I can’t wait to delve the depths of the Burning Hells and face down the mother of Sanctuary alongside the rest of you.

Lastly, rest assured that the Diablo community will be left in good hands. I’ve spent a fair amount of my final weeks here preparing to pass the torch to those who will follow in my footsteps and working with the team here to ensure the transition is as smooth as possible. You won’t be left unheard or unacknowledged, but please be understanding while the next folks get settled in. We’re all here to battle the demons of Hell together, after all!

I’ll see you in Sanctuary, adventurers.

    Why? If you don't want to play on it then don't, but why actively be against something that other people may get enjoyment from?

    im glad police is enforcing it here, also you get hefty fine for breaking quarantine, up to 7x average salary

    None of the above.
    You can't just transfer your character because you would just dupe gold.

    What they should do is just clone the current classic servers a day before TBC releases. You can continue your characters progress on the TBC server while it also remains on the classic server.

    That's a bad idea too. The economy in Classic is DESTROYED. Going into TBC with that kind of money already will just make sure the economy is screwed right off the bat and especially screw over people coming back for BC who didn't play or didn't play much of Classic and expecting them to cough up 50 gold per potion on a raid night.

    Because I don't want our raiders taking a break from/"quitting" retail for a delusional 1-month nostalgia trip.

    There is no such thing as an implicit NDA :P
    Do say please do not post this, screenshot.
    Implicit is indirectly stated or implied

    I hope they do, in a perfect world they'd be servers dedicated to each expansion. Even if I would unlikely play some of them.

    But this isn't a perfect world and for the realms to exist they need to be viable economically.

    I thought that was the whole point of this forum. Just look at the High Elf Megathread. It's all about people arguing against something that other people may get enjoyment from.

    Well, there wasn't an NDA. If there was you'd bet your ass you'd follow it if your John Hancock agreed to it.

    In cases like this I truly wonder if Blizzard fills these kinds of roles "because of diversity" or because the person actually has the skills and merit to meet the demands of the job.

    How about we start devoting all assets to Retail? Shadowlands beta is already behind. Stop trying to start other projects when your cash cow is lacking..

    option 1 is the best for a bc player but this would not happen.

    and that the reason that option 2 comes to shine..

    None of the above. Classic + with balance for all DPS specs.

    As much as I like the Classic, TBC is the era of WoW that I personally have most nostalgia for. So I would love to see it again.
