Living Flame and Lone Wolf Realms Temporarily Locked to New Players

This guy is right, they don’t read these forums, maybe Kaivax does, but he has nothing to do with this mess.

They are boasting about their magnificent success of a launch on twitter, so go there and ask them if they consider locking down the realm for people with jobs, making them unable to play with friends and guild, a success. I hope people are vocal today about this mess. They reap what they sow.

Do you have a link please? Sorry I do not use twitter and cannot see anything

@blizz:
And why do you have a time frame every single night (4-5am est) to create new chars on lf? Dafuq… This is kind of a joke or bug in your own matrix? Is your own IT team fooling you or there are different groups and the company IS falling apart cuz nobody IS understanding this kind of solution?

Long time ago - 100% of blizz we’re gamers… These kind of dudes would never accept these decisions made in the Last 36h hours…

Again: you are destroying big guilds/communities/bonds.

Locking Servers not even 16h after relaunch can’t be real.

The unlock in the middle of the night is messed up yes

What is Fine?

In Germany and france we dont speak english like in the uk or in scandinavia.

I have really problems with english and other players too.

They arent locked anymore?

What a joke. Guess I shouldn’t have resubbed. Imagine paying to stare at 5 hour long ques, then not getting the chance to play with your friends anyway. Well done Blizz. You lost more people with this obsessive pop balancing than you gained I guarantee you.

Just play alone on an empty server, maybe blizzard allows you to transfer to Living Flame in Phase 3 for just 25 bucks :grin:

I think you should have said like “what the other games we should use instead of project of those bunch of scammers”

So you are telling me that, because i had real life plans this weekend, I can now not play with my friends? Despite being a paying customer for years… Outrageous! And to think I was so excited to come home and play this. I guess I’ll just go lay in bed and cry or something. Thank you!

Some of my friends can’t join us because of the lock. There are other way to balance a server. Or cross-server play could have been used, it is supposed to be a new version of classic. Now our group is split apart because of this. I’m so disappointed

woah i been checking some tweets of wow devs and its so cringe who they boast about faction balance when there are servers where you cant even create a character xDDD its so cringe :rofl:

they added a faction lock system on the first place that blocks you to create characters on the big faction, whats the point of locking servers then???

Faction-balance system is so precise too. There’s 1502 alliance and 1497 horde (examples) and there you go, locked for alliance

Honestly blizzard is straight up robbing people. Imagine going to a restaurant with ur friends and want to eat pizza. Thats the only thing u want to eat. But its a special restaurant so u cant look inside. U have to pay 15$ before u even can enter the restaurant. When u have paid the fee to enter, the doors open and its a 4 hours long queue. U think to urself sure why not let me wait i have already paid the fee to eat here. After 4 hours of waiting u finally get to the register to order ur food. Half of ur friends gets pizza, the other half gets to eat but sadly they cant have pizza cus there too many people eating pizza. So they have to eat pasta but they also have to sit at another table. Ur thinking sure why not ive waited 4 hours if i cant get pizza let me eat some pasta. Atleast its with some of my friends. But when its ur turn to order. The person in the register tells u NOPE. U cant have pizza or pasta, matter of fact u cant even eat in here. So they tell u to go to another restaurant and eat by urself and u cant get ur money back sorry :slight_smile: . Thats how the SoD experience have been for me.

Crusader Strike is an RP-PvP Server. So it is not there for you to evade the queue but to roleplay as your character dort.

You know what gets me the most? Blizzard actually think they did a great job with this launch. Reading twitter of this “Senior Game Producer” of blizzard Tom Ellis and I just cant. For those of you guys who missed his magnificent posts, I will attach the link and the copypaste of the posts:

(5) Tom Ellis on X: “So that’s pretty nifty, we’ve manage to get every single person wanting to play Season of Discovery in game today, no queues anywhere in US. I’ve still got some noodling to do to see if we can get more folks in in EU but overall, not bad for some mahahoosive mega realms!” / X (twitter.com)

He also has the response for us who cant log in due to lockdowns:

(5) Tom Ellis on X: “And if you’re the wrong side of the character locked realms, we genuinely feel for you, but its a rock and a hard place. Those realms are stuffed and allowing more people to call them home is just going to bite us harder down the road, we’ve a long season to go!” / X (twitter.com)

This is not how you treat your long-term customer base.
