Trying to figure out what would be the reason to play on Classic - I could see it in a content drought but I don't see it being viable.
SO KEEEEEEN! The glory days!
I'd be a lot more pumped for this if they released anything more than a "It'll happen eventually" trailer, and answering every question with the ever enlightening "I don't know" and "We'll see".How can you announce something, complete with a trailer, and not know a single thing about it?
What would make it interesting for me is integration into the current framework - i.e. earning vanilla achievements in this server gives you FoS's on your actual main account etc.
Finally gonna get to see how much of the hype was rose-tinted glasses and how much was real.
What anyone knows about "classic Servers" ..... Nothing.
well, im gonna play it but dont think it will be that great
I would try this.. Im not sure what the appeal would be but I wasn't playing back then.
So little is really known. Quick! Distract them with a dino mount!Eeek!
Oh my god if they put the Swift Zulian tiger back in the game all my dreams would be answered.
Hope that expansion will not share with live stuff
i actually read up on this when i saw the post for it. the interview that is, it is still very early, and i'm just happy to know that i will finally get the chance to experience it for the first time, as it was when it first released. not that i don't love the game we have now, i just feel like i need to know the full struggles of the past to truly appreciate what we have now. :)
People always rant and rave about Vanilla WoW and how it was better despite it's kinks. I have never seen it and this'll be a polished version. I'm super excited to see what all this fuss is about!
By a more polished product I hope there's no issues like , , or ...I cannot help but wish we can replicate the corrupted blood incident.
When I started playing in 2005, I was stationed in South Korea. My time was not always my own, being in the US Army, so I didn't do a lot of dungeons, and no raids. After I PCSd from there back stateside, I was only stable for about four months before being deployed to Iraq in April 2006. I got to play some of the BC pre-expansion stuff on a laptop from Iraq. I never raided Naxx. I never did a 10-man Stratholme Gauntlet run. I never saw UBRS nor LBRS until it was old content. I did get my Dreadsteed of Xoroth (with the legacy achievement to prove it!) but I never saw AQ when it was current. I had more important things in my life at the time, but I do regret missing out on that history just a little. This? This is a dream come true. A "Do-Over" so to speak for a time in my life when I couldn't see all the new stuff. I want to see it all again, like it was 12 years ago, but without the deployment in the way!
Can't wait to play! <3
I might give this server a try when it's available but I'm not expecting much. I played in Vanilla and enjoyed it because it was new and exciting and undiscovered. Going back to that era without the millions of QoL features we now have would be painful and grueling.
What We Know So Far: That Blizzard is interested in doing it.That's all folks!No But it looks like this whole Classic thing is easily 2-3 years down the road. I doubt we will see it till late 2018 at the earliest and most likely around mid 2019.
