40 man was certainly cool, but Blizzard have already butchered raiding hard enough. It would be simply too hard to run them in the current situation.
bring on the 40 mans.
I'm not sure why we hear this so often. We're not talking about late Classic where you could PuG MC with a few carriers, while the rest took a break and drank tea whilst masturbating violently.
Some fights were VERY tightly tuned for 40 players, such as Twin Emps, The Four Horsemen etc. Tell me you did those with "30 carrying 10", and I'll laugh and call you a liar.
I'm quite happy that 40 mans are a thing a of the past, they were fun when we had them but the game has simply moved on. If by some twist of fate they returned to wow as an optional raid size I would most likely avoid them.
Yes. In my guild, there are some veteran players from the start of the game and they did not enjoy 40 man raiding. Getting 40 people together on a regular basis to raid. Then during the raid getting everyone to be raid, moving to A to B. Then there was the performance issue.
They do not miss it.

These are their experiences.

I see people claiming 40 mans were more "epic" and I have to protest that. It is not true as the more players the more you feel like a small cog in a big machine and the more limited the set of skills you use becomes. It also allows a lot more people to be carried while at the same time forcing the game designers to be more lenient due to probabilities of losing players due to disconnects.
I would much rather play the part of a skilled hero, one of but a small few up to the task, utilizing as many of my skills as I can find useful to defeat the enemy that as a cog in a machine.WESTMORELAND: O that we now had here
But one ten thousand of those men in England
That do no work to-day!
HENRY V: What’s he that wishes so?
My cousin Westmoreland? No, my fair cousin;
If we are mark’d to die, we are enow
To do our country loss; and if to live,
The fewer men, the greater share of honour.
God’s will! I pray thee, wish not one man more.
to make it viable, they would need to remove lookinf for raid
so it would be a good thing
too much lag. not worth the effort

No 40 mans would be a failure, The community has long & forgotten 40 mans. It would cause more problems than help.
I don't always hunt things, But when I do, It's because they're things & I'm a Bear.
40man sounds like a fun clusterfuck, I'd like to experience it sometime but I doubt it'll come back.
