I doubt that "the people" hate the current game because of LFD/LFR. In fact, the influence of these tools in Retail has diminished significantly since WoD (to the point of nigh irrelevancy), but Retail is even more toxic and just as criticized as ever. LFD/LFR are scapegoats for all of the devs' bad design decisions.
just hit 70
really fun to search for a dungeon run and just stand in og....
not.
If you don’t want to use it then don’t use it. Problem solved.
LFD was a great option for players wanting to solo queue content while out in the world doing dailies etc instead of standing around in Dalaran looking for or creating groups via the local chat channels.
The highest content should always be tuned for pre-makes, but LFD has a legitimate place in WOW for many players and it’s frustrating how M+ has killed it in live.
Personally I’d love to see it launch with Wrath Classic instead of waiting for ICC.
Huh, I admit, I'm surprised. The majority (at least here) seem to want LFD.
That's the issue. They said they won't add it at all.
If they brought it with the ICC phase then that's fine.

No LFD was great and made sense in the original Classic as this was a totally different experience/game in a way.
Not adding it in wrath is a different story though. Not having LFD will be just a huge waste of time for everyone with no gain or fun. People won't talk more besides writing "123" for a summon, because they are lazy af and not having it won't create a less toxic environment in this expac.
Even in TBC it was quite annoying having to spend so much time on forming groups, then going to the dungeon, waiting half an hour so that one other person decides to come and summon, then summon everyone else and finally start the dungeon after 1 hour of searching/summoning.

Yeah sure, an iconic feature added in Wrath has no place in Wrath Classic...
Mixed feelings.
I hate retail dungeons, especially m+. I feel like it's a less social environment than classic dungeons, but only part of the blame should be on LFD. The other party is the scaling difficulty of m+, as well as the timer. It leads to a mentality of "Talking is inefficient, and if you make us wipe, youre out!"
I think Wrath's LFD is fine, because the dungeons aint too hard. Only the angriest gamers will be toxic.
I still say just add the Premade Group Finder that Retail has, and let it ride the rest of Classic's existence. The Premade Group Finder more or less does the exact same thing that LFD does, just with a few more added steps to sign up for a group.
No. I would be fine with it implemented to automatically find players on your server for your group, but stop there. No cross server and no teleporting to the dungeon.

Baro is correct imo. Out of all the things I despise in retail, LFD & LFR are most definitely not on that list. I loved when they were added as it gave me queueable content I could do when I had free time either to level/gear alts or get enchanting mats to DE. Atleast until as mentioned they nerfed the item level rewards of both to be almost useless. Legion was the last time I did LFR for any reason other than enchanting mats.
I'd love to have queueable RBGs either by myself or with a couple friends. Just use some MMR ranking and then have them act otherwise like a normal BG does. Trying to find groups for those as a dps, especially ones that don't require voice is hell.
I've been around since BC and in my experience over the years people are WAY more toxic to people on their own realm than they are in LFD/LFR. If you act like a shithead in queueable content you either get kicked or people add you to their ignore lists or both. Either way they don't have to see/interact with you again (except in BGs). Where as on a realm you're stuck with them until they get banned or transfer off to another server.
my feeling are that it still wasnt even a thing till the expansion was almost over. i think we will be fine without it. they may add it after the fact around when RS phase drops if enough people want it in at that point. but it didnt come out till ICC was released. just like dual spec wasnt in till secrets of ulduar. so as far as im concerned and i know my opinion is practically worthless, it doesnt diminish the game at all not being ther.e
“Listen, three eyes,” he said, “don’t you try to outweird me, I get stranger things than you free with my breakfast cereal.”
Wrath dungeons are so insanely easy that I don't even think it's going to matter whether LFD is implemented or not, so I'd rather just have it for the convenience.
