Unlike this thread, classic will remain, and do fine.
Th forum is absolutely dead, the game is going fine.

What a silly thing to say with absolutely NOTHING to support it from a numbers perspective. Originally Posted by Felrane

Well, going by this forum, its definitely not as popular as many would lead you to believe, and many, MANY people are leaving. This isnt an issue, but its certainly a fact. Originally Posted by bigfoot1291

Activision Blizzard Earnings Call's quarterly report says it drove the largest sub increase in franchise history and remains well above pre-classic levels of subscribers, and Ion at Blizzcon said it has millions of players, that was a few days ago. Originally Posted by arkanon

A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don’t have one, you’ll probably never need one again.

This is a pretty generous interpretation of the information given. Originally Posted by Schattenlied

Not silly when Ion said so himself and the Q3 report said so as well. Originally Posted by arkanon

You're right. Saying it's popular after driving the largest sub increase in franchise history and Ion stating that millions are playing is a huge fucking leap. Originally Posted by perkocet

Saying it's popular =/= asserting that there's definitely for sure absolutely 100% millions of players still playing. Calm down. Driving the largest sub increase in history doesn't say anything, literally at all about the CURRENT population. Originally Posted by korijenkins

This guy is right, They made too many servers, ppl were hogging gear right and left, and MC is laughable content. Honestly classic has 1/4 of the staying power of retail sadly. Originally Posted by perkocet

If you honestly think what they said during the call, or anything since, represents "classic wow currently has millions of players", there is absolutely nothing worth discussing with you, you are blinded by your fanatic fanboism, and you must be a marketing departments wet dream.

Look at what you're discussing, m8. Originally Posted by perkocet

"the largest sub increase in franchise history"
And how do we know this is millions of players? Because the PREVIOUS largest sub increase was 2.5 million, back during WoD's launch.
So, if this is "the largest sub increase in franchise history" as Ion said, then it must be larger than 2.5 million, which was the previous record.

Man, it's sad to see how desperate some people are for a game they don't even play to fail, not realizing how much it would hurt their game in management and shareholder eyes.

Opinions are fine, you need to slow down and just relax. If you rad my post, you will find i am happy that classic is doing well, and im enjoying it myself. Originally Posted by anon5123

As someone who is enjoying classic, i find people like you to be the absolute worst part of the classic community, and you do nothing but harm to the reputation of the game.
