#YesChanges!

Hi everyone! Let’s face it: Classic != Vanilla. And the main reason for it is server capacity, a change that was welcome by vast majority of players, but in the end brought many PvP servers to ruin. With increased server capacity world PvP landscape has been drastically affected, therefore creating Classic-exclusive environment, which is different from Vanilla. Imagine a raid setting with increased maximum group size. It will lead to easy mode raids. Now take Azeroth as a whole with increased population - you’ll basically get the same situation, especially for the dominating faction, but on a larger scale.

Faction NPCs in the open world are of the same lvl and are in the same numbers as they were in Vanilla, yet players now have much bigger numbers to deal with them, making said NPCs a non-existent factor when taking over a settlement of the opposing faction.

Also, there are more players for dominating faction to farm/grief on as there are just more people in absolute terms. So, it’s simple: Classic experience is already different from Vanilla experience, and I think it’s pretty obvious.

So, to address the situation, I suggest that Blizzard should adapt to the mutated environment Blizzard have created and apply (or at least consider applying following changes):

  • Increase quantity and lvl of guards in cities/settlements

  • Punish high level players for killing grey players. There is nowhere to hide now.

  • Disincentivize Xv1 PvP by giving less honor points if you’re only winning due to numbers.

  • Faction specific log in queues on full servers (not implemented yet?)

To sum it up, #YesChanges! Make Classic last, Blizzard.

Yes to more neutral town guards, faction towns aren’t really a problem.

Too easy to exploit, would kill group PvP and city raids.

Again, too easy to exploit and wouldn’t actually stop anything (people were doing WPvP way before they added honour).

Not sure about this one, it would have to be used in conjunction with free transfers for people on overpopulated factions to avoid even more frustration and vitriol but it could work.

No.

In your game, what would stop me to add a couple lowbies to my pvp raid? Enemy mages go in with the aoe and they get dk’s? Way too abusable for griefing.

Give us new realms with Vanilla population cap. Those people going on and on about dead/dying servers are much to blame here.

Or that. Seems like a legit solution.

I mean this sincerely, not in a snarky way or to be a jerk. Changes like these is how we ended up with retail. If you want to be coddled and breeze through it, go play retail.

The only “change” I would like is not a change. Vanilla population cap on new realms to be opened better yesterday than tomorrow. This is not a change, but a rolling back of a change, which is game changing.
