Free Character Moves Starting Thursday at 1:00 a.m. CEST

Blizz need to make it more clear that the reason so many servers have transfer options away from them now is because that at this state they wont be able to remove layering in phase 2

Earthshaker with healthy growth :slight_smile: Glad i transfered from unbalanced Gehennas (70/30 ratio for horde)

these new realms (earthshaker) is a laugh ! its a trap blizzard!
its like transferring to a realm with a playerbase lower then a private server. GG!

I’ve seen so much outcry from the spanish wow community from the day one of Classic re-launch, looks like this community is quite big, yet no dedicated Spanish servers. I feel like so many problems would be solved, most importantly - the queue problem, and not just for you guys, but for everyone on eu servers…
Why Blizz won’t open them is beyond me. :roll_eyes:

oh they will remove it and player will be outrageous demanding free transfer. If I would be a decision maker there I would removed the layers for the weekend… Ppl would hit the transfer button as soon as they realise its unbearable to have 20k player on a map designed for 4k.

You are stupid, i play on high realm and what ? Already 58lvl and its impossible to find group for 54+ dungeons and now u want people to go to low pop realms ? for what ?

coz most ppl have life . I made up until 26 from release . Majority of the players have responsibilities.

Says the lv23 rogue…

Well, casuals will enjoy leveling for 2 or 3 months longer than you , and when you already burned out due to lack of content im still paying my sub for the company. So probably a casual worth more than you tryhard

Is Earthshaker a good option to transfer to? Has high enough pop and reasonable faction balance?

Population rn isnt biggest one tbh. Its growing tho
Faction balance is 50/50 or 45/55 for horde. Its good out here :slight_smile: Im happy

I just hope you get banned soon so that nobody has to have the “pleasure” to meet someone like you in game.

Earthshaker is definitely worth it.

Please show me the numbers of 70/30 ratio.

The top private servers have more players than Blizzards own servers, atleast the retail ones.

Thanks for option, but I will stay on my ground here on Shazrahh!

My guild just transferred to Earthshaker from Firemaw. About 30ish Alliance players

We expect these free character moves to remain open until 1:00 a.m. CEST on Tuesday 17 September.

Can anyone explain the logic behind stopping the service? Why not keep it open until the new servers get listed as “High” or at least “Medium”?

@Swekilermonk: Maybe they should have underlined, bolded or italized the “expect” part of the phrase.

They actually have at least three options:

  1. The FCM period ends (for now).
  2. The FCM period is extended as is.
  3. The FCM period is extended, but the list of available options is modified (expanded, reduced, exchanged, etc.).

Thanks for making sure flamelash now has an absolutely garbage H/A ratio, you’ve actually managed to doom your first set of servers to die in the same slow way the retail vanilla servers did blizz, good job, really managed to mess up at every possible step you could’ve messed up. Even finding news about the transfers is almost impossible as there was no in game notification unless you got stuck in a queue and none of these servers have gotten a queue in weeks now servers are gonna have to deal with terrible faction balance when phase 2 is incoming and already groups of bored 60s are corpse camping lowbies who are gonna be quitting, I’m actually shocked you managed to repeat the exact same mistakes you made in retail vanilla when it comes to handling population problems.
