9.1 Release Date Combined with Horde Queue Times = RIP TBC

It was a fun blast for a week or two but it’s time to take off the rose tinted glasses and go home. Sorry to anyone who bought a Dark Portal Pass but 9.1 is coming and TBC is about to die a rapid death, most of the people on my friends list who were on TBC constantly for the past two weeks are starting to return, the only people who will remain in TBC are the most toxic classic andys and the multi-glad boosters in Arena. Have fun Alliance who gloated over the queues.

    or
  2. free race change for the overpopped factions lul

And what is the point of this post? On a side note it is so funny that a Horde player has the nerve to call out anyone over gloating. Or do I need to remind you about every time the Alliance faction had an issue with the population disbalance and the forums where full of “lolololololol, git gud, re-role Horde, go back to retail, alianz players are so bad rofl, cry more, quit” and so on.
No TBC Classic will not die. People still enjoy it and unlike the instant gratification retail children the decent Horde players tucked in their belts and sucked it up. They farm or do quests as they wait for the Q.
Also with everything the vocal part of the Horde player base has done (and no it’s not ALL horde players but a decent chunk of them) do you doubt that a lot of people have had enough?
If you want to quit then do so. We all know that there is enough Horde to take your place. If anything the Q’s for your faction will go down.
But to go around claiming the game will “die” because you and a few more retail players will go grind in that glorified mobile game where you get rewarded for not falling face first in a fire pit… Don’t make me laugh.

The raid and dungeon mechanics in TBC are Raid Finder level, just totally laughable :clown_face:. There is nothing in all of TBC as difficult as Mythic Castle Nathria or timing a M+20. You just exposed yourself as a total noob who never progressed in mythic raiding in retail or pushed m+ keys. Even Heroic Nathria is harder than anything in all of TBC let alone Mythic lol.

So if TBC is laughable why are you here? People don’t play the game for the difficulty they play it because they like it. Retail is the real joke and you are a part of it. No go play your glorified mobile game before it dies.

On ali its everything okay and when some horde players leave, its a fix a problem and who stay can be happy

A Glorified Mobile Game which has ten times more boss mechanics than classic where you only need 4 key binds for rotation and can click everything and still best the hardest challenge, the amount of people afking in BGs is also huge and the class balance is a total epic failure compared with what we have now in retail.

unfortionately dungeons and raids are the only thing WoW retail has going for it now
There’s many more aspects in TBC that are not in the sorry state Retail is. PvP is better (less of a oneshot fest, you get time to respond to something when it happens and no I’m defo not calling it perfect), professions are better (I cannot even craft a level 60 weapon as a blacksmith for my alt, but in BC, crafting is basically the solo player gearing experience, in retail that solo player gearing experience is go out and do a lot of dull world quests that got repetitive 5 months ago) and even the repeatable quest cycle is less intrusive and more straight forward. (no 5 hidden objectives before you actually complete something)

Do you ever look around after you leave those raids and dungeons and enter the shared ‘overworld’ for a lack of a better term?

Finally the squealers are beginning to grow tired of squealing and returning where they belong to retail and the queue will get better by natural selection , don’t let the door hit you on the way out.

Well TBC mechanics are somewhere in Normals to be true. But I doubt you are progressing in Mythic since guys there are usually coming to TBC to chill not to brag how harder raiding is.
And most that she told you is true. You are awaiting instant gratification and since inflation of retail players (that are all Horde, thanks Blizz) blew population over board the only solution to TBC disbalance is you leaving. And no game won’t die. We will close off our chill normal like content and move to Wrath enjoying the game. Can you say same about your experience in retail?

Please leave the game ASAP and goback to RETAIL, the Horde Battleground queue is unbearable for us who wanna play.

what kind of crack have you been smoking to think 9.1 will make shadowlands good/fun?

And despite it being more difficult in terms of raid, it still is horrid to play and the most unfun it has been in years. Because you know why? Difficulty does not equal fun?

Good riddance, comes to tbc as a holiday from retail cry like a baby for retail changes to abandon the game anyways.

Enjoy retail have fun in torgast everyday doing mind mumbling boring Dailys/world quests while your at it buy some tokens so you can buy your arena rating or get boosted in your raids since you think they are so difficult.

You won’t be missed.

9.1 won’t save retail. It’s pruned too much, it’s just super boring to play.

Another great example of the warm and welcoming Classic community. Welcome to World of Warcraft where people who like the game hate on others who like the game. Perhabs it’s time that some of you really start to grow up instead of acting like manchildren. And that goes for both sides.

Retail babies leaving classic and going back to their mobile game? That’s great news.

Goodbye sir

I said it in previous posts and repeat it here. Mercenary mode will only “solve” issue for Horde, creating no reason to play Alliance since smaller population is overrun by enemy 2v1 in most scenarios in wPvP, Horde has better racials for arena and with Queues gone every PvPers and their mothers will go to play for the Horde. No thanks keep your Merc mode in retail.
