Consider delaying TWW launch

Hello dear Blizz,

Given the huge amount of bugs issues that have popped up with the pre patch and the current state of beta testing, I would urge you to delay the release date, is clearly pushed for economical reasons and is more than clear that it is not ready for launch.

Also, those who paid premium access, will get a whole 3 days of buggs disconnects , bar missing, character deleted, keybinds reset, disconnects on movement, bosses that are idle and all the fun things that happened this week?

Not a shame to admit the game isnt ready to release, I think I speak for a lot of people when I say, that we rather have a delayed healthy launch, than a bug / disconnect fest that will give a lot of people yet another opportunity to mock Blizzard and reinforce the idea that WoW is dead

I think it’s a bit too late. They’d have to announce a delay more in advance. It’s especially bad since an exact release date and schedule is already officially announced, because a ton of people take time off work to play on launch, and in a lot of these cases, they cannot reschedule these on short notice.

Well, you don’t speak for me.

The vast majority of expansion launches have had bugs and issues. So I don’t believe that a delay will actually help anything; so with that said, I’d rather have an early bugfest than a later bugfest.

With so much money they can hire more people. They cant even make enough new dungeons for a season kek.
And this is EU forum btw, no one is American

Or consider doing the smart thing :

Dont play on launch day. Play 1 week later.

It has been the winning strategy since Everquest.

Its an american company, the game is developed in america. The game industry is famous there for union busting. The developers dont get a fair pay, or overtime pay there. Most of the money goes to the bosses and share holders.

They can, sure. But usualy they dont and often fire many when a project like an expansion is done. Or some months later when buggs are ironed out.

You don’t speak for anybody but yourself.

If you think it will be buggy and don’t want to be part of it then buy it / play it later.

Makes sense.

Id rather they stick with the 22nd.

Fully agree - what is Beta for - personally I don’t think release dates should be announced until after a while in Beta to fix issue. This would be a much more professional approach (yes I was a project manager). This does look like a get the cash in and fix it later (from my experience a very American project approach, who would have guessed).

That’s a crazy concept.

Yup and if we keep pre-ordering and being fine with such products then there is ample room for the quality to get even worse. Much much worse.

Like people didn’t take time off for shadowlands launch and have to change it last minuite due to delays? Not that I think it should be delayed

Mythic raid and M+ is already delayed by a month. :sob:

No need for more delays. TWW will be stable enough for open world content.

THE SHOW MUST GO ON!!

Fun times ahead.

:ice_cube: :ship:

3 weeks is not a month

3 weeks and 4 days if you include early access. Basically a month. :frowning:

Yea a bit to late to delay the release I would think. Though I do believe they should realize that this push to get content/expansions out faster is actually really turning out into a poor quality product and customer experience. I know that if I have a poor experience on the 3 day EA I wont be sticking around for longer and most likely move move on. As is my wow playing time is down nearly 70% compared to 2 years ago and t’s mostly to me not enjoying what is being put out there.
