Known Issues in Classic Era?

Is there a list of known issues in Classic era? Other than the blue sticky “Not a bug” list?

I’m getting really annoyed with mobs pathing in shallow water falling through the ground, evading and getting stuck so much. It’s happening anywhere there are swamps/lakes/rivers with mobs moving along the bottom - turtles, crabs, crokolisks etc. Since it is so common I can’t imagine it isn’t known, but I can’t see it mentioned anywhere.

I did make a bug report some weeks ago, so before I make another one in all caps it would be good to know if it is actually known or not.

Not sure really, I remember it being quite common that mobs would get bugged in water back in vanilla.

If it is a known issue it’s not likely anything will ever be done about it since no one at Blizzard is working on Era.

Can’t remember this being a thing back then, at least not everywhere all the time. Not even earlier in Classic (before BC). But it sucks if truly nobody is working on Era at all, but I’ll make another bug report anyway. If nothing else it might annoy someone…

It became a thing late in classic, possibly in the 1.14 patch, but in 1.13 “Classic” that bug didn’t exist.

Thank you, that’s what had me confused. Well, reported it again. Something about how some mobs are aligned to the terrain if I am to guess, I have noticed that mounts will suddenly align to slanted angles on individual planks on bridges and so on. If you nudge forward and backwards you can easily get it so your mount is at a 45 degree angle to the ground, with its backside buried in the surface. It doesn’t get stuck, just makes the motion jerky when riding on those bridges - but I am almost certain the two issues are related.

More and more bugs are leaking into Classic slowly, I don’t understand why.

Donning my tin foil hat - my guess is because it’s a half-arsed effort mostly intended to try and keep vanilla purists subscribed, while little to no resources are committed due to 0 revenue coming from the product. At least they keep the servers running, and that IS something, but these annoying little bugs should be addressed. Especially considered it is a new bug and not in the “not-a-bug” category…

But there is money being made from vanilla purists as you put it, compared to people who play retail and just collect gold for a token a lot of the classic players just pay for a sub and don’t touch Retail.

True, if only the suits looked at it that way too!

Every other things are okay, except alt leveling and AH.

– Pyrewood Village ERA realm –

Prob because of the client.
