I don’t know about you…
But I’m tired of US region getting names like Warsong all the time, and us, you know…
Here’s my formula for a great name for the gaming world:
If a game world name consists of one word, that word should be epic like the same Warsong.
If the name of the game world consists of two words, it should be majestic, like Thrall’s Law.
Blizzard, please do not forget that the population of the game world depends on its name, no matter what anyone says, the name of the game world is the main thing.
EU region once had a server called Warsong PvP EU around 2004-september 2008 if I remember correctly. It was forcefully closed by Blizzard the only time Blizzard of old times did that to this and 3 other realms due to them promoting Russian players to move over to new localised Russian realms.
There will not be another Warsong I guess and also I do not see a PvE realm, despite being HC, getting the name of warmongering orcish clan that leader and his son in Warcraft lore were all about conflict with the opposing faction.
HC realm should get something sounding like Hardcore, like Hakkar (the Soulflayer), but sadly this name is allready taken both on US and the EU.
Or you can name the realm Tinyvioline HC Classic Era EU
I would vote for names to have cave or Murloc in name, as these are big killers of HC players
Any good cave names? or Murloc names? Mrrglrlrlrmgrrr would be too tough to get right every time
EDIT - Ideas for names:
Murk-Eye
Bluegill
Skull Rock
Skulk Rock
to be continued.
OK, now is the time to bump this thread.
I think it will be one of these.
yeah, name it after me.
you’re a woman. it’s impossible!
According to the dev interview, all realms will be marked as PvE - since you will have to opt-in to do any PvP anyway.
„Sea of Tears“
OK so my suggestions for up to 4 HC realm names are:
- Thane Korth’azz
- Lady Blaumeux
- Baron Rivendare
- Sir Zeliek
So rate from 1 to 4 what realm name will be most and least popular.
My take that Zeliek would be #1, Rivendare #2, Blaumeux #3 and Korth’asszz #4, but it depends if they would be released together or in any specific order, with 1st getting most of tourists, 2nd or realm getting most of the long staying players and #4 being empty and useless after a few weeks, but having no bots as well, so slowly accumulating SSF players.
I like for ease of API names in one word and no ’ in them. Also Open world NPCs better than Dungeon ones, so I like much better the ones suggest on US forum:
Seems you can only copy, not really cite from US to EU forum. Is from thread called Hardcore server names in subforum https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/c/in-development/classic-era-1144-ptr/296 works almost!
Obviously the names should be :
Dead Mines
Wailing Caverns
Swamp of Sorrows
Doombringer
Nah, it’s obviously going to be something relevant to only having one life.
Deathknell Graves
Iceblood Graveyard
Ironbeard’s Tomb
Kodo Graveyard
Raven Hill Cemetary
These names also perfectly fits the server status in a few months
The US got their names after the restart so we should get ours later or tomorrow.
What are they?
defias Pillager and Skull rock.
Both dangerous areas of the game.
I just went look. 2 servers for US and the Dragonsfligth UI … seems I can just call it quits.
So 2 servers for EU are Nek’Rosh and Stitches.
