Because the addon could distinguish between a regular death and an abusive death (Grief, Lag, dying by fallin’ from the fly…)
Blizzard just can’t compete with the protection against out-of-control-events that the addon offered.
I died to the massive deathwave caused by server outtage on Stitches this morning, and really considering re-switching to a new (non-hardcore) server but using the addon instead of those unstable HC servers.
I wont get fooled by this kind of event twice. Wont playing again on those HC servers for sure.
Because blizzard can’t run up properly Hardcore server without outtages, and even its 100% their fault about what happened to 2k people this morning they wont do anything about it.
What do you think about reswitching with the addon on a new server?
Can we get the soul of iron buff on a regular server?
Ps : Be warry, you could be the next to get wipe out by a “Natural Disaster”
Remember when we had the massive random-layer swapping bug? The people running the HC addon made an announcement that all layer-related appeals would be instantly denied.
the addon version came with perks for streamers who had their own Jesus resurrecting / appealing whatever they considered grief or undeserved death, not the mention some cases where the same players with higher status were caught cheating by disabling the addon.
You can’t take them seriously anymore, not after you see a wipe, grief or not, which resulted in mass appeals.
Shameless cheaters that want to pose as hardcore players.
If this was single player then your logic would work. The magic about HC realm is that everyone enforced to play with 1 life in an MMO. There are no addon hackers or rules cheaters here (even bots die if they F up).
Some of us were inspired and some of us were terrified by your attempt to start a revolution. A legend of our times, for sure.
Now go find a dying server and play with your HC addon; the very addon that ended up creating one of the most toxic and anti-social “communities” in the entire game.
Ok , Im officially done playing this dumb dcs when Blizz doesn’t wanna fix there game tbh.
My last mage char died at 38 due to some random weird DC again!
I dont really like wasting my time playing this scuffed version of a game. But apparently playing hardcore on the add-on was much better ( I didn’t tho because i wanted to play official servers)
The addon had appeals for dying due to DCs/Server Lags/Issues that are not related to HC.
Dying to this VIDEO HERE
I didn’t care like you said I said go again. Leveling another char to 38
and it happen again.
This is a waste of time and FYI I’m a game developer so I know if the issues on my end or not am not a mediocre level gamer who barely can open WOW.
This video was 13 days ago. server issues started to happen to singular players and it toke 12 days for it to start bottle-necking and killing hundreds of players and lagging in game while playing (I had 5~8secs freeze not just me the whole server even the player I play with and friends who are actually from different countries!) . I made forum post about it and did a ticket so maybe they look into the issue but no one cared.
Except when they had a bunch of appeals at once all due to the same thing, or are you forgetting that they turned appeals off when players started dying to the mass layering bug?
If people were still using the Add-on, everybody who died to the huge wave of server instability would also be denied. The add-on runners would have told you the same thing as they did during the layering issues: “You know there’s currently a problem, don’t play until it’s resolved. Playing now is doing so at your own risk”
Nope. I could think of rolling HC toon on other server, but never any more use addon. The addon limited gameplay in so many more ways. I did not like it - tried several times from beginning to launch of HC servers.
Also I would never make video of all my levelling to be able to appeal. I find pathetic. A death is a death.
This on other hand, I would warmly welcome! on all regular servers! Also since SoI do not can be cheated!
