The classic fresh we need

WoW Classic WoW Classic General Discussion

Now I know alot of you think you know it won’t happen or isn’t needed, I’m not here to teach stupid.

It’s going to happen it’s not if it’s just when and with phase 4 sod and war within soon classic fresh is coming next, it makes too much sense not too.

So let’s start with some the key things what could make it great!

NO BOOSTING, yes it didn’t fix SoM but it also wasn’t it’s issue, boosting is one the main negatives in era, it kills the game the community and the economy, let images still do aoe farms but make it impossible to xp boost.

pacing / phases / patches - one the things 2019 beta and early sod did right was having level caps and progression, I think working through the patches with gated lvls/content could work really well especially for the community and keeping each bracket/zone/instances or raids with a healthy player base for interactions

Make it against TOS to trade gold cross era, this been allowed brings nothing positive and only helps pay to win behavior and is only allowed as it’s gives classic era players a way to buy micro transactions

potential add expansion progress (classic - tbc - wrath) , this is a bit risky as could cause previous expansion to end up low population but with only three expansion and let’s say 12 months between each it would give people plenty of time and could even make it to move onto next expansion you need to have cleared every 5 man and every raid? I could see this potentially getting more hype around pve than every before, imagine taking one too from dead mines to ice crown what a flex that would be!

maybe add some new solo / group challenges like achievements, no gear or cosmetics to change the game or add any “flare” just some content for the sake of you know… Playing the game? Blizzard hasn’t grasped this aspect of player mentality yet

instant mail, this is a QOL change what I can’t see any logical reason to no have

guild QOL refresh, again I don’t see any benifit for not at least potentially consider things like gulid banks as well as looking at other aspect that could give guilds a bit more purpose, maybe a guild lfg board? (could be live lfg tool or just a notice board where you can show your interest in x dungeon) keeping it exclusively to guild members would help build a community in game and could even allow two guilds to maybe join to lfm to raid ext?

Bring back gms, I know it wouldnt be possible to revet fully back to old systems but a handful of senior gms should still make rare appearances in game, this is just cool too see :rofl:

Adults allowed to be adults, the madness of the report system and abuse of it by the same players who labe others as “toxic” on retail is scary, classic is a 20 year old version of wow and the main demographic is way past 18+, we have profanity filters ext, don’t turn classic into the SJW world of retail, giving the most sensitive players power which results in bans ext is not the solution

Have any of you got any thoughts to add

Sure. I don’t need fresh servers. I’m fine with era.

All we need are tbc era servers.

Obviously just my personal opinion. But hey, you asked.

Fresh server, old pvp system, wipe everything clean after 2 years, offer character migration to era once it’s over.

No boons too?

I would want NO Changes fresh with minimum 2 years life, or I stay Era - and as long Era stay, I do not mind fresh, is OK, I just not want unless as said strict Vanilla no changes.

And please put in TBC Era sa well.

Most of this is not possible / hard to implement
Why blizzard would open new servers if existing servers are empty

Even if they introduce the fresh server, it won’t be the same experience like it was in 2019. I had the best gaming experience in my life back then, but that’s mostly because this attached a lot of casual, nostalgic, old gamers who didn’t rush and take their time to explore and have fun. Also it was very specific year with carantine and people were looking to hang out with other people which made the community really tight.

My guild was very casual,very chatty, helpful and friendly. For someone who tried WoW for the first time those things were the most important for me. We didn’t rush, but we did everything. TBC was already a different story, people already min-maxed and Blizz messed up with bundle at the start of the expansion.

I was breathing hopium for a long time, trying to step in “fresh” starts or playing Era, but nothing was even close to the feeling in 2019, and I am sure, if they announced that won’t be a lot of changes from this what we currently have. I would love to, but I doubt.

I agree. 2019 gave people to feel vanilla to those who skipped it and came later and those who played it 10 years ago.
Now we have classic vanilla for 5 years, it isn’t fresh and mysterious anymore.
I think fresh hype is overrated

No boons and ban gdkps while we’re at it.

No fresh needed nor wanted.
But bring back male/female.
And set rules for chat, esp in Stormwind its nearly impossible to form groups since the constant spam.
Other then that, keep it as it is.
Remove the pay transfer too

Its acctually i huge problem i think.
Ive been playing Warcraft since 1994.
In all games and books there has always been male and female. Its an important thing in this world.
And they just changed that in one second because of REAL WORLD things. Its not like the Night Elves went out in Darnassus on a march demanding it to be called body type.

And classic is ment to be like Vanilla. Body type didnt exist back then.

Oh please - the only thing to come from taking this up is to have thread taken down.

Roll back ALL changes to Era servers please so that they’re just like Vanilla - and give TBC Era servers.
