Yeah and getting RDF wouldn’t too because your community everytime argue with this :
Make friend
Find a guild
So yes, make friend, find a guild and play with them without RDF if you want.
Who have biased opinion is who are a tourist on this game and living in a vanilla dream.
I already explained why removing RDF doesn’t change anything 4 years before, already proved by some pservs when people like you asked for removing it and it was a fail, a fail again.
Get some XP on this expansion little tourist Wotlk players came from Retail.
Because i’m playing for logs now and maybe a hope to get Cataclysm
GOOD ideas folks. I WOULD SUGGEST FEW VERY GOOD IDEAS.
-TRANSMOG: Allow it on wotlk so people will raid and play all content of the game , not only icc and 80 lvl stuff.
LVL 70 RAIDS TO HAVE ANOTHER DIFFICULTY( FOR 80 LVL PLAYERS ) so we could actually go for BLACK TEMPLE RAID , FARM 80LVL ITEMS and simply do TBC RAID ON 80 lvl difficulty so your in game content will be in 100% use.
Anubarak, Ymiron and few other bosses are one of those things, where I would like to take the person who came up with their design, bring them to the game and be like “what the hell were you thinking?”
Who is stupid is who is saying RDF is killing the social in 2022 whereas it’s not.
Only pserv players can explaine why.
Here’s an exemple of what i already explained but also what many of your community prefer living in their dream with their old stuck memories and ignoring my argue.
The RDF killed the social: In 2010 maybe, in 2022 not. Wotlk private servers that disabled RDF proved it, TBC too, the “You think you do but you don’t” has never been so true.
The RDF has killed the social bis: The RDF tool allows to empty the channels in order to let us speak freely on it, today the channel is spammed with announcements and if we have the misfortune to speak for fun we are insulted or ignored
RDF is a tool, therefore not RP: The BG tag when slacking in front of an NPC or via the tool has never bothered anyone and it dates from Vanilla
With the RDF people socialize less to group: Spammer “LF last tank for” with a reply in pm “Hi +1”, is not sociable. In addition, the Salute in question is still retrieved via the RDF once TP in the dungeon and/or grouped automatically, it’s just politeness
With RDF people no longer talk in dungeons: RDF does not impact a person’s willingness to talk in dungeons, and this has been proven once again on Wotlk who disabled RDF. What makes players socialize in the dungeon is the combination of discovery + difficulty
The cross-server RDF has killed the social: True, and we can very well not activate this feature, however we are already drowned in the mass since the servers are 2 to 3x more populated than at the time , in other words this defect is already implemented natively. In addition, the BGs are cross-server since Vanilla, and it has never bothered anyone
With RDF I can’t group manually: False, you can make an announcement in the channel, group them and tag. Or go there on foot if you wish, it’s a principle called the Walk-in
With the RDF I can’t make friends and keep them in contact: False, nothing prevents it, however there is no reason for others to keep in touch while the dungeon is clean in 15min chrono
The RDF which allows TP in the dungeon is bad: True when you discover the game, False when you have played 10 years of play. The Wotlk private servers which have disabled the RDF have proven it, 5min of auto fly in afk Alt+Tab Google
The RDF allows abuse of kicks: False, there is a 15min cooldown before the first kick, in other words the dungeon is already clean at this time. While a manual group gives full power to the lead and can kick at the slightest whim (lack of dps, no cc, not enough stuff, too much of the same type of stuff to need etc.) Worse yet, a person can leave the group without ANY penalty, once they get the loot they want right in the middle of the dungeon, imagine that if it’s a dps that tag tank to make it faster, roll dps, gain the loot and quit, with the RDF the person gets the “deserter” for 30min.
RDF is not Classic: Indeed, that’s why Classic ERA exists, a server that has been neglected by its own fan base apparently “the best version of WoW”
If you want RDF, go to Retail: If you don’t want RDF, go back to Classic ERA, the server you abandoned and which was nevertheless el famoso “the best version of WoW”. The RDF is part of Wotlk.
It’s Classic not retail: Wrong, it’s Wotlk, just stop.
Players will prefer soloQ RDF to get the buff 15% : Ok just remove the buff then.
RDF should be implemented with ICC only : Wrong, RDF was a part of 40-45% of the total Wotlk life, and RDF is not a dg/raid content, it’s just a tool so as the game is in 3.3.5 it has to be in day one, exactly as the fly is 150%, 1.5sc casting, double spec, no CD every 3 days to craft an Titan Bar and 200 others things that we can list.
For more exemplaination read that =>
Yes and we did not have these things until ICC
Summoning Stones: To use any Summoning stone, a character must be at least level 15. There is no maximum level to use these meeting stones.
Health and Mana Regeneration: These regeneration rates have been increased up to 200% for low level characters. As the character level increases, regeneration rates gradually decrease, until returning to normal rates at level 15.
Troll and Orc shaman totems now have their own unique appearance.
Nerfed Oculus
The distance at which these health bars are visible to players has been increased by 40 yards. (oh wait, isn’t already enabled on TBC ? )
The speed of improving the Norfendre reputations has been increased by approximately 30%.
Yes and we did not have these things until ToC
Cast duration to summon any ground mount is now 1.5 seconds, down from 3 seconds.
The skill Apprentice Rider (75) can now be learned at level 20 for 4 gold. A letter will be sent to characters reaching level 20 to direct them to the riding master.
Companion Rider skill (150) can now be learned at level 40 for 50 gold. A letter will be sent to characters reaching level 40 to send them again to the riding master.
The Expert Rider skill (225) can now be learned at level 60 for 600 gold from Honor Hold or Thrallmar masters. Faction discounts are now applied (Honour Hold for the Alliance, Thrallmar for the Horde). Flight speed at this skill level increased to 150% of run speed from 60%.
Artisan Rider Skill (300): Faction discounts are now applied (Honor Hold or Valor Expedition for the Alliance, Thrallmar or Warsong Offensive for the Horde).
To continue harmonizing the number of mounts available for purchase for each race, a new 60% speed ground mount has been added for night elves, and a new 100% speed ground mount has been added for Forsaken.
Object comparisons: by pressing the Shift key. while hovering over an item with the mouse now displays the stat differences from the currently equipped item in the corresponding slot.
Portals have been added to Orgrimmar and Stormwind to lead players to the Stairs of Destiny at the Dark Portal.
A new zeppelin dock has been added to Thunder Bluffs to allow Horde players easier travel to and from Orgrimmar.
The local mail department got tired of walking so far each day to collect mail and decided to install a large number of new mailboxes in Stormwind, Undercity, Darnassus and Orgrimmar.
All stackable potions are now stackable by 20.
Yes and we did not have these things until Ulduar
All ground mounts can now swim without unhorsing their rider. Flying mounts still cannot swim and dismount their rider when entering water.
DOUBLE SPEC
Applying a glyph no longer requires being near a Lexicon of Power. The same rules apply for changing glyphs
Players no longer need to complete the Nat Pagle, Extreme Angler quest to become Artisan Anglers. The quest rewards you with a special premium fishing rod. Players who have already completed this quest can visit Nat Pagle in Dustwallow Marsh to receive this new fishing rod.
I agree with 8 but I would like to see opt-in transmog still, as in, you wouldn’t see transmog unless you opt-in. This feature would change nothing in the game for people that dislike transmog. People still wear the best gear goofy setups, they just get to not look like a clown on their screen
And I totally agree with 9. I have dealt with so many buggy addons that replicate features that exist in retail, most recently heal prediction addons. They cause insane lag for me on classic in raids. It is a feature that people want and make use of. You have to use an inefficient addon to do so. Just add it
Disagree or don’t care about the rest, but summarized: Tier sets will mix up the classes. Vehicle combat is fairly limited so whatever. Heroics are whatever (though it will matter more when they do heroic+ I guess!). Achievements being put in different categories - doesn’t change anything. RU players don’t bother me in the slightest
Man for me it’s not even about RDF - I don’t give a *** one way or another - I only want Wrath to be like OG Wrath not some Pserver players’s wet dream.
