Wotlk PvP servers need to be fixed

Hello everyone! Woltk is finally here and we all trying to enjoy it. Since the very first day we were all waiting to Log in, choose our servers and characters based our gameplay, the things we love, etc, in this original game. As you all the old players remember, a very big part of this game in the PVP servers was the “ganking” when you were recruiting your friends, or even going solo, to hunt down players of the opposite faction around the WORLD of WoW. This was an amazingly enjoyable playstyle which everyone was enjoing before the PVE new players came in and started crying about it. The problem is now that, while Blizzard had PVE and PVP servers for these reasons, when they brought War mode on/off system, it ruined this kind of playstyle. In Wrath now, there are no clearly PVP servers open for people to join in. Most of them are locked or they called PVP but they are actualy PVE since the population is like 99% of one faction. As a result the games turns to become total PVE besides the PVP content like arenas and battlegrounds. This situation really bothers me becuase i can’t gather my friends in one clearly PVP server and enjoy the game like the old times with our guild, which we want to remake. I hope that there are people that share this emotion and they also want to find a solution in this problem.

jsut go ashbringer ally and ull have a lot of fun:)

Good Evening ,
I agree 100% with you because the game is not realistic if it doesn’t have world pvp.
When the game became very demanding and the wm off option was created, all the casual gamers disappeared and with them those who loved world pvp. Most players started classic/tbc/whath to experience real wow again where you don’t just fight NPCs. Unfortunately, BLIZZARD did not take care of the balance of the HORDE / ALLIANCE crowd, with the result that the game on most servers is still pve.

And a big part of us also want no part of PvP - aka. we like the PvE servers - and a part of those like the village feel of non-full servers. We did not get this in Wrath either.
All PvE servers are Full (occasionally touching High) except only the Russian one.

We can agree that Blizz’s Realms management is lousy!

Would be nice to have 1 RPPVP server as well tbh. There is none. Back in old WotLK days I was in one and it was awesome to participate in, you could also have world PvP. It’s ridiculous how every server is dominated 99% by one faction. Earthshaker almost full alliance, Golemagg and Gehennas full horde. Ashbringer was nice and balanced it’s also becominh a horde heavy server. The only option is Jin’do, since the start it seems pretty balanced. But we know how Blizz handled things since the release, so soon it’ll also be ruined probably.

people just clearly don’t wanna play on balanced servers, its not efficient
if blizzard somehow avoided it, ppl would be mad that they cant play together on big 1 sided realms like gehennas to queue pvp or pve together = more ppl would quit than in current situation
BUT tbh I also think it would be nice to play on 50/50 server… if it was one big mega huge realm for all classic players, then yea it could work for me

ppl left gehennas when it was somewhere balanced at the start of tbc using paid transfers, then ppl left firemaw when it was somewhere balanced super late in tbc with free transfers’
and boom there u have 2 biggest ally/horde servers

I have been playing since 2005 without a break and I have seen all the expansions and experienced all the changes. I have more than 70 alts in horde/alliance at max level. After shadowlands, which is the biggest failure, I decided to stop the game for good. When I found out about whath, I believed again that the myth is being born again, but I soon found out that BLIZZARD DOESN’T RESPECT THE GAME OR ITS CUSTOMERS.

u think u are one and only?
u probably played on some non popular realm
trust me big boys like stormscale, outland, ravencrest were one sided (99:1 A/h or h/a) for many many many years if u had no knowledge, no info from 3rd party websites, and u played on something like ashbringer u would be in ur dream now too

Believe me my friend we always played on big servers. Sadly the game it is not how it was. It is not that the people don’t want balanced servers, it’s that when expansion came out many people tried to login and most of them with their friends. So when you firstly login to a “new” expansion you just pick a name of a server to start playing. And in an expansion like Wrath people tried to join servers that they know the names. When old players that heard that wrath of the lick king is up came back again to join the game. When this people tried to log into a server again solo or with friends of course they didn’t start a new one, they joined the already crowded ones. That’s how the population came so high to very few of the servers. We didn’t ask from Pve players to stop playing on the servers we didn’t ask anything about players we ask Blizzard to bring old WoW back, which means, now that it has many players give free transfer based on faction and characters to more servers and make more or extend the PvE ones so every one can enjoy their own playstyle. It is really disappointing seeing that private servers are better organized than a big company.

then go back to ur private server

do u have any idea of how much players are playing here and on pservers?
if there is a pserver its usually just 1 server and ppl have to split on factions…
if there is more than 1 its because there are 5/10x ratio and ppl split on those servers by ratio not h/a preference so they have nothing to do to keep balance

i never rly stayed on pservers just saw their organisation.
It is simple just give the PvP players the opportunity to transfer their char to server where you can organise the population, that’s why i said based on faction

I’m sorry that it’s so hard for you to understand what most people say " BLIZZARD after whrath changed and the game lost its naturalness. Who likes the game to be realistic has lost interest in wow. Who likes to he fights NPCs it is better not to play online games From what you have written I understand that you play this game but you don’t play wow I hope someone can explain the difference to you.

OP fails to understand that mono-faction servers were engineered by players, not Blizzard. But at least I appreciate that for once someone is admitting that they want “world pvp” to gank lowbies in STV 20v1

My friend, BLIZZARD is responsible for there to be balance, the differences in population don’t have to be so big

Wow man thats so crazy i can feel you…

Oh wait

Its almost like … People dont enjoy getting constantly ganked and being unable to play the Game. Theres a Reason World PVP died the Moment BGs came. Theres a Reason World PVP died AGAIN in Classic when BGs came.

Oh yeah its soooooooooooo fun getting 24/7 ganked by High level Players in low level Zones just because they CAN. Its so fun Corpse Running. I tried to level in a 20/80 Server. i got killed 15 Times in 1hour without being able to do ANYTHING. used the Free Transfer to a PvE Realm and can enjoy the Game again. Crazy how that Happens

WoW is a PvE Game. PVP is mini Side Content

This game has history, romance, and the unpredictability (world pvp) was balanced between hardcore gamers and casual gamers. Now there is no balance and the magic of wow has been lost.
You have bad experiences and I understand you, but you can stop the online games. The online game with story also has the unpredictable (world pvp) if you can’t stand it pls stop or play the other wow with wm off. However, those of us who are men and not children want the realistic game.

Blizzard has mechanics to do so, like in 2008. Also who said about ganking lowbies the real fun is when you actually do that while u lvling up and you make it against higher lvl character. Or even going outside big cities. This post is based on an old WoW design that people loved and became fans of and sadly now this design is out of the game for no actual reason. We are plating a game in which his history is like that. You see opposite faction player you fight or you run you don’t become a friend of him. Also i can’t understand actually of what you actually standing for? The history in the whole game is based fights of these two fuctions and the greater evil that sometimes comes up. The game firstly came out us both PvP and PvE game and the free world open PvP is the thing that brought so many people in Blizzard. So WORLD pvp should have way to exist cuase its a huge part of this game.

Are you able to read ?

World PVP died when BGs came

Why don’t you go to pve server then ???

i swear you cant read

good for you that you enjoy GANKING People but your little Whining clearly shows that the Majority does not. So it died
