Barber shop

10? That’s great man!
Back in 2004-5 I had to raid in a cyber cafe to get 10-15 fps max because my own computer in my house had a 256mb ram and x256 processor and I froze like every 4 seconds out of 6 in cities/raids.

I say #NoChanges

Why?

It doesn’t matter how good or bad an idea is, because even bad ideas have a lot of dumb people backing them up and getting voted into games for developers to implement.

What are you “let’s change this tiny bit only” people thinking how did we got from Vanilla to BfA in the first place?

So #NoChanges because this is Classic, and we already have Retail, so we do not need another Retail that is not why many of us waited for years to get Classic and then change it into another slightly different Retail WoW!

There are many things in Classic ppl want to change, little things, many little things. It is already not exactly like Vanilla so I really don’t understand why do they keep asking for more and more untill nothing is left of Classic at all!

When you buy a book or movie, you write to the makers/writers of the product to change it a bit to your liking?
I assume only an insane person would think they would bother even considering his/her suggestion.

So why is that in MMORPGs ppl keep asking devs to change this, change that, just a little bit of this, then a little bit of that, and then from a masterpiece like Vanilla (or any other great game) we finally end up with BfA (or something similar watered down mess of a game) ?

This answer has nothing to do with your idea being good or bad, it is about protecting a game that is good, before it is turned into something we already have and play Classic instead of Retail for a reason!

Classic is popular because it is Classic and not Retail.

“I want this”, “I want that” … you already have all those in Retail!

#NoChanges
Because we don’t need a 2nd Retail!

I am very much ok for certain changes to make it into classic but not the barber shop. Once you create a character, you have to accept its looks and live with it. This is how the other players are going to see you and there is nothing you can do. More or less like real life.

And transmog would be a game-breaker for me, I will definitely think of cancelling my sub if that would be introduced. You can make your level 34 gear look like BWL drops? How about no! Or The Stoppable Force like Hand Of Ragnaros? What are going the PVPers say about this, huh? It’s really frustrating to see a warrior with that weapon charging at you.

So, #nochanges (at least, about this exact thing).

I’m sure retail didn’t become a shizzleshow because of people’s ingame hair colors but more because Activision purchased most Blizzard stocks and changed the game’s direction and audience.

It was no coincidence and a very consciously that started happening right in WotLK with LFR and normal/heroic raid mods being added, which was a game changer and a huge step to make the game targeting more casuals/non-mmorpg players.

Again, I can see that you aren’t very much into reading but as we said quite a few times now, classic isn’t vanilla. It has different graphics, different models and different flow of combat. But it is good to have them as the game is more playable and polished.
You will never have a 100% vanilla experience because you can’t go back in time.

The important thing is to preserve the vanilla wow’s social aspect, game mechanics and spirit. Hair color has nothing to do with any of this.
Hair color didn’t change the game in a bad way.

I can change my hair model/color whenever I want in real life. It would be otherwise boring to have the same hair model for 80 years from birth to death.
As it is similarly boring in game look at the same hair color for so many hours a day.

To me it seems you are the one that is not into reading since I wrote that Classic is already not like Vanilla, we don’t need even more changes!

What you don’t understand is that if they add this, someone will want something else added as well since if this get’s added, why not add someting else too… and then we all end up with a 2nd Retail! NO THX!

Classic is popular because it is Classic and not Retail.

#NoChanges !

Classic is not a perfect copy of Vanilla as it is already, so no more changes!

Unless Blizzard wants to loose all the Players who only Subbed to play Classic.

Those who don’t like Classic as it is can play Retail, so stop with these “ideas” and “suggestions” to mess Classic up for all of us, and create a 2nd Retail!

Yes it absolutely will. It starts a ball of change rolling.
There will be no barber shop in classic.

If the developers have the capacity to use their brains unlike most of you zealots of this new religion, they can differentiate between what is good and what is bad.

“since if this get’s added, why not add someting else too”

Can you even see how ridicilous this horrible argument is? If barber shop gets added, they will add LFR too! From this logic, they already changed character models, so they will now have to add LFR and cash shop into the game.

Why? Why would they be forced to put LFR into the game if they put barber shop? Barber shop wasn’t a bad feature at all and I don’t remember a single player from retail, even the most hardcore, diehard vanilla fans didn’t complain about barber shop at all.

It had absolutely zero issues for the game and I haven’t met a single person disliking barber shop on retail or on pservers.

And if its not added at all, we avoid this speculation in its entirety. Problem solved.

But we already have a lot changes from 2005/6 classic, so it’s not “pure”, and if we can have one thing, like a “open all” for the mail why not another addition that doesn’t change the gameplay?

George Lucas, Star Wars. Need I say more?

I agree 100%, that’s why when I said it I said, you can only use stuff you have used in classic and no transfer between classic and retail.

I’m against any change that affects gameplay, cosmetic stuff only.

Its not a “ridiculous and horrible” argument. Its the classic conservative vs progressive thinking. The progressives are eager to change things. They start out small with seemingly insignifcant changes, chipping off the corner of the block. If they get their wish and it is implemented, they go “See? wasnt that bad”. Then a few weeks goes by, and some other chucklef’ck comes in to the forum and has the bright idea that he wants to change some other aspect of the game. Another chip off the block. Rinse and repeat this a few times, and the block is no longer square, but an unrecognizable sphere.

There will be NO changes.
No barber shops, no transmogs, no LFR.
These things are already available to you on retail.

Since Classic has a retail client behind the scenes, it will be easy to add stuff. People like you don’t seem to understand, we are not talking about escalation of adding things that change gameplay but altering the way things look. That is all we want.

People like me understand. We really do. It starts out small, with a trickle like the barber shop. Then comes the flood.

No changes.

No changes?

You mean like adding content? They’re changes aren’t they?

You know well that i mean that they should not add changes that were added to the game after vanilla. Dont be dishonest.

And if humanity had listened to you, we’d have full blown communism and despair all over the western world. Thankfully there is resistance to the insanity of progressives.
