To follow up on my post, I hope the devs have the sense to open separate realms for the purpose of transfers. It not like Bloodfang and Judgement can fit the 100k players now waiting in queues, plus the ones who have given up and don’t even bother trying.
Fresh realms and transfer realms should be kept separate until the former mature.
Just introduce the damn paid ones as well… Fml. You’d have so much money and people would be satisfied. That way there is always an OPTION to go back in case shift falls apart.
Why can’t you give us all realms? What about the people who switched to a server they didn’t want to play on to avoid ques now are stuck without their friends? I’m not in that boat but come on…
Their announcement does not say anything like that. It says that those an selected realms, can transfer and that sounds like a permanent procedure and not something that only happens for 24 hours.
The comp on high pop realms for Rank 14 or the scarab mount will be a lot higher, so people will abuse these transfers if they are still around, they did so back in the days as well and why we as classic community, did not want transfers.
They can close transfers as soon as the population on the source realms reached a, normal level. Details will follow. There is no need to worry before we know the details.
Because there are people who did not start with BFA and understand the consequences to these transfers.
I have seen it happen again and again, how unlimited transfers caused a lot of damage. Seriously, we are one week into the game, its not hard to level a new char on a low pop if you dislike a queue.
To add transfers is going to have a major impact on the game, especially if it has no restrictions and remains available forever.
You also underestimate the consequence of a streamer moving server and his whole gang comes with him. Now all of a sudden, your no longer save from their toxicity and might even have a queue all of a sudden.
As I said, if they open brand new realms and it´s a temporary move, then so be it. But not on already existing realms, that´s terrible.
So you rather want people to stay in a queue, rage and eventually quit or do you want people to transfer so they can enjoy the game while maintaining a bigger community on classic realms?
I dont care if people get an advantage for rank 14 or some shabby mount. I want people to be happy and enjoy the game (the majority that is) We will always have people who are not happy.
