Does Blizzard even care anymore about the player base and the whole way they manage the game?
I really would like to know does Blizzard even listen to the complaints let alone take them seriously?
Does Blizzard have toxiticy filters going on on their own forums and are they ever going to bother looking into the forums let alone do something about the toxic influence that got so bad it is basically the succesful version of “void lords” spreading their evil but in this case the real life players themselves are corrupted?
Why is it so hard nowdays for Blizzard to take responsibility and come forward and address fresh problems and let the public know about it or atleast let them know that it’s being seen or taken into consideration?
Did you know that once upon a time you could open an ingame ticket as easy as sending a message on a messenger app and nowdays opening a simple ingame ticket is nearly impossible anymore and the whole way they handle it is make “already known” issues is actually a nice way of saying that they don’t really care?
Did you know there were times that you could directly chat with Blizzard employees in this way with whatever issues you had?
Is Blizzard really of the idea that this is what the classic community wanted? Was there a warning a skipped? or i didn’t see? that one faction was going to dominate all pvp servers and the other faction was just ment to have fun playing the game they paid for by just corpse walk? Did i miss somewhere before launch that we had people saying that choose this faction or that faction and this is coming first in patches and this is coming last such as honor systems and battle grounds?
Or was it just like it happened? Total incompetence and thus failure at best.
Can a BLUE POST please come here and tell me was i ment to corpse walk for a long periods of time untill battlegrounds come as people say? that’s all i want to know.
All i want to know is did you know this would happen? and if you did was this it, is this what is ment by pvp servers as some people are trying to convince us? being ganked wherever you go so much so that all you know in server is being ganked. is this what is ment by pvp server?
Thank you m8, amazing post. I think someone (many?) at Blizz are butthurt at classic success
They nerfed spy for ya.
Exchange every PVP for RP in your posting and I would sign!
… and that they do not fix known bugs like forever, and that they are totally silent on the overpopulation issue.
Yes, once upon a time … really not that long ago, around MoP you could speak to Blue GM’s ingame, be helped by them and sometimes even have a Chocholate cake from one of them.
I miss those days, when bugs were fixed, problems were splved and you got a knowledgeable answer to your questions.
^this.
I made a post “It’s time to react, Blizzard” but it’s been buried under the complaints about PvP, disbalance and overpopulation. I don’t know how to reach them. It seems they have no staff to communicate with us like it was earlier. Kaivax posting 1-2 times with per month is not really communication.
Does the playerbase really need to accumulate some critical mass for them to react?
Classic is just a marketing strategy bro, they’re running out of ways to try and save their bloated dying trashfire of a game so they went with nostalgia to rope people back in.
If you dont like a company then dont play their games. I think they have made an awesome job on classic. And they were even kind enough to give it free, alot of companies would Charge for it+The month sub.
Companies are never “kind”. Its business.
It’s only free if you’re one of the few people who still had an active sub who are the minority in classic for sure.
Still, they could have Charge for The game aswell. Like 30£ for The game and then 10 £ monthly. I think it was a very Nice move to give it for free.
LoL, no. Companies are always very kind to their customers, otherwise they lose them. It is business.
yes, they are.
if you allow addons like SPY.
CROSS FACTION COLLUSION (working together as allaince and horde guilds to gain unfair advantages)
PVP HONOR TRADING.
then yes, id say they dont give a F.
this game is turning into retail !
i see dead classic + retail soon.
Yes, exactly.
OK, I understand your previous post now. We agree.
No logic here. I don’t have to like a company to like its product. Apples and oranges.
First of all Classic is not free. It costs a standard monthly fee. It is not a different game, it is just another chapter of the same game we already have played.
Anyway, the topic was not about it but rather about:
Borte, are you Genghis Khan’s wife?
They literally just made a change and nerfed spy after we made complaints here… they’re doing a good job of listening to us about a lot of stuff
but they’re not adressing the big picture here. Spy wouldn’t be such a problem if there weren’t horde everywhere I go in the world.
OT: I got the feeling they are absolutely clueless how to adress this massive problem. I can honestly say it’s one of the biggest concerns Blizzard has had over WoW since it’s release.
I think they did not expect so many ppl to roll into classic with a Retail minmax mindset. “roll horde for the best racials”. I can’t recall a bigger inbalance on so many servers, ever. It’s not just a couple of servers that are troublesome, it’s almost all servers that have critical inbalance issues.
They can’t faction queu, ppl will rage. They can’t force transfers, it doesn’t solve the problem since there’s a general overpopulation of horde. They can’t stop creation of horde chars, ppl will rage.
Classic evolved into something they never predicted and they won’t come with any feed untill they figuted out what to do. BG’s will perhaps makes things somewhat easier for alliance, only to have the forums flooded with horde rage threads about long BG queu’s.
Every evening since honor system I spend frustrated. My initial responses is to think Horde are pathetic for corpsecamping, grieving, ganking and whatnot. But in a game like classic, where’s not that much to do when you’re 60, forming ganksquads is just another thing to do and in groups, ppl will havetheir laughs. It was around in Vanilla aswell.
But because of the inbalance it affects the community as a whole much more severely. There are more horde to start gankraids. Both relative to the alliance and to the server population in Vanilla, and the world itself hasn’t increased with the larger server caps.
I’m really not sure what to do right now. I do not enjoy the game in its current state. I play with some friends that got to 60, but I didn’t due to vacation, work, I play retail aswell and I got a son. Only thing that keeps me going is wanting to catch up to them and play together. But I’ve been struggling real hard past week to get 2 levels.
A game should be fun and relaxing, not frustrating and infuriating. I can shrug of a couple of kills and ganks since that inherent to a pvp server. But not hours and hours of gankraids at every single flight point and quest hub.
Blizzard, let us hear from you. Show your consideration of the issues that a tremendous amount of players have right now.
Im surprised somebody who is so passionate about the Classic Community not only posted this essay on a retail Character - but on a class that didn’t exist until Expac 6
If you care about Classic post on your Classic toon man
