WoW classic turned into a private server

So im leaving WOTLK, i mean how can i play WOTLK, when the populated servers are locked. They turned WOTLK into a private server tbh, the only realm that is populated is Pyrewood Village and its one sided that is Alliance

Mirage raceway is more than enough populated for any kindof activity.

Too many bugs, AH is not functioning, feels indeed like a private server. This isn’t what I’m used to for 14 years, they screwed up big time sadly. Problems seem unsolveable, every server is full. There was only 1 server that was not full and they opened transfers from every realm, including German, French and Spanish realms, so now that server is also down the drain, possibly with queues in the coming week. I knew this was gonna happen, they just don’t care. Shame.

I completely disagree with you. You don’t wanna compare such realms with mirage raceway

On what grounds ?

There’s constantly groups for most things here in wotlk.

as a former hardcore raider private server player I can easly say this. Wow classic is nothing like private servers. Its not even close, almost different in every aspect even the way people play their game.

Both Earthshaker and Mirage Raceway are viable realms.

Earthshaker has slightly less players than Pyrewood alliance side. It has a more stable auction house, slightly more competitive guilds, and pvp presence in the LFG chat.

I found Firemaw and Pyrewood unbearable due to either queues, lag, auction house stalls, and general overpopulation issues.

That being said, there’re a lot of random additions that yes, make this feel like some sort of twisted retail-Classic love child. The northrend adventure caches the emblems from IC and SP quests… I know this stuff makes the game easier to keep up with but I dunno, it just reminds me we’re playing a 2022 version of this game and it’s not the one I particularly wanted. I am by no means quitting however.

Private server you say? Nah, those are free to play. They also resemble original WotLK more than classic does, and there’s fewer bugs.
We are playing an alpha (beta at best) which we are paying for, with zero customer support.

You’re literally playing on pyrewood village you’re just proving my point

0 smart admin private serv will remove RDF at the open, because they know more than all how removing it doesn’t improve the social experience .

Ironforge my brother

mirage raceway is fine for now, but it’ll probably end up like Pyrewood sooner or later.

Ironforge is wrong.

We’ve gotten a lot more players with wotlk.

Ironforge is still showing TBC before pre patch numbers

How can you even use that as a credible source?

Man i have characters on all realms to prove my point plus i played on thekal

So you measure a realm’s health by looking at how many players are standing in Ironforge? even though Wrath hasn’t been out for long?

Absolute genius! Blizzard should hire you for census analysis and server engine work.

You said too many bugs, then listed one as if it was a big one. I’m not sure what isn’t functioning about the AH, I use it fine, maybe it’s the server you’re on. Queues are gonna die down.

I mean it is what it is, most populated servers will always be played

He quite clearly meant ironforge.pro which isn’t an accurate view either but clearly better than Ironforge the dwarven capital.

Is that the site that measures population by uploaded logs? ah. There’s better census tools that can show a realistic population even if it includes alts. Some will show a 5k pop on a realm (judging by logs) and yet have an actual 20k population on a census.
