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.

    Where will it end though? Once people have had their fill of BC, they'll want Wrath, then Cata, and so on. Pretty soon you will have just played through the entirety of the game again, and then what?? Classic 2: The Classic-ing??? Ridiculous.

    Can’t wait for Classic BfA and Classic Shadowlands.

    Cant wait for TBC, its so much more enjoyable than vanilla.

    I really have to question how they choose which people to send these to... I got one, and I've spent exactly 2 hours in Classic... over at my brother's house...
    Did respond that I'm interested in TBC even though I'm not, since the people wanting TBC servers should get them if there are enough of them.

    so basicly now we can say wow classic is a soft reboot of warcraft that people can restart from scratch from vanilla to eventually later xpack

    I cleared all of TBC when it was relevant, i don't really want to do it again. I'm loving classic, and was hoping for Classic+, shame

    No matter what Classic version they will bring out, I won't play it. Not even on WotLK servers, even if it was my greatest time in WoW. .

    But hell...the basic question is: "Why play shit at all?" New or old...I mean..if it is shit then it is shit. Don't pay for shit. Not with tons of publishers and games out there that surely do a better job at entertaining and giving a bang for the buck, right?

    ...which ofc will just automatically be a success.

    Titan says hi. ^^
    I'm pretty sure Titan became Overwatch and uh.....look how successful that is.

    I see Blizzard offering one way transfers to BC servers and keeping Classic Vanilla along side Classic BC and Retail

    BC private servers are notorious for being extremely buggy messes. I think there's 1 available, and it's not without bugs.

    The private server scene is clamoring for a good BC realm, as we've had plenty of good vanilla and WotLK realms.

    BC and WotLK Blizzard realms will literally explode with people.

    If you went by sub numbers then nobody wants anything past wrath. They could consider adding content to older versions . If it made them more money then bet they would.

    All of these options are horrible. There is only one right move: Your classic characters stay on classic realms that never advance past 60, and you have the option to COPY, not TRANSFER, them to a new tbc realm.

    Is there any thing at all pointing to them not having the skill for the job?

    People still thought this was a possibility?
  1. Sanguinerd's Avatar
    Doubt they'll go past Wrath with this whole classic thing, but it is interesting to see how quickly they're moving towards TBC when it hasn't even been a year yet.

    Actually, Titan is Destiny; why do you think it was in the blizzard launcher?

    TBC is much more fleshed out and actually allows you to play all classes and specs to their full potential.
    Yeah for sure. Instead of being a totem twisting enhancement i get to be... a totem twisting enhancement.
