Message from Blizzard regarding overpopulated EU English realm Shazzrah

https://www.mmo-champion.com/content/8690-Classic-Overcrowded-Realm-Update

''Based on name reservations so far, the Shazzrah realm is looking to be massively overpopulated. If all existing players on this server remain there, login queues in excess of 10,000 players are a certainty, and possibly much higher than that.

We recently opened up the Gehennas realm, and we urge players on Shazzrah to consider moving there. There are a lot of players currently on Shazzrah and we want Gehennas to fill up before we open any new PvP realms. This is so that player population is spread as evenly as possible before launch, in order to provide the best play experience.

While we are able to fit several times more players on a single realm in 2019 than was the case in 2006, we are not going to raise that cap any further, even though we have the technical capacity to do so. Raising realm caps would simply forestall the problem, letting more players in at launch but creating an unsustainable situation down the line, with severe queues when we turn off layering permanently before Phase 2 of our content unlock plan.

Please also note that our realm population estimates of Low, Medium, High, and Full are based on this increased capacity – a Medium realm today already has more characters on it than even the most crowded realms did back in 2006.

Our top priority in planning for WoW Classic’s launch has been ensuring that we are laying the groundwork for strong realm communities that will endure over the months and years to follow, which is why we’re cautiously opening new servers to meet demand.

I love RPGs ( role playing games) , and what is better than single player RPG? Online RPG where you play with your friends and even meet new ones. Even after 15 years and despite having to pay monthly subscription (10-15 USD, depending on the region)  in order to play, WoW is still played by millions of people and is the most popular and successful MMORPG on the market. One of the big reasons why WoW is so popular is because there is something for all kinds of players, whether you are PVP player, PVE, hardcore, casual etc.

Since all existing EU English PVP realm are Full or High, Blizzard decided to add another server. It is obvious that  they underestimated interest for WoW Classic.

I miss the old pre-WoW Warcraft games (1,2, & 3). I always thought if they made that style of game massively multiplayer with a giant world it would be amazing to play. I tried playing World of Warcraft once for a couple minutes, just wasn’t appealing to me at all.

My first contact with Warcraft world was in 1996, when my cousin who knew that i am big strategy fan( at that time i played Command&Conquer) brought me Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness, and of course it was love at the first sight.

And then 2002 came and Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos was out.And it was even better than W2, that was my first online gaming experience, i still remember getting crazy telephone bills from playing it all day long using dial up.

If you love Warcraft world, i suggest you give it another try, but with Classic, not this current wow expansions,but if you can give it a a bit more than few minutes and who knows, maybe it will change your mind.It is an amazing game with awesome social component and immersion, and if you love Warcraft lore, it is still there.

I don't know if you follow recent news, but Blizzard is working on Warcraft III: Reforged, remastered classic that should be released sometimes before end of this year, i hope.

Not exactly.

Dota is based on the Defense of the Ancients  game mode of Warcraft 3, and as we know it is purely PVP game.

World of Warcraft is mmorpg( ( massively multiplayer online role-playing game)) based on the Warcraft 3 engine and Warcraft world ( massively multiplayer online role-playing game), it is a combination of role playing game and multiplayer online game, where a lot of players interact between themselves in virtual world.But here you are not strictly confined to PVP, as you can do raods, you can do quests, you can explore the world etc.

Here is an example of  raid

PVP example, Arena match 3vs3 and battleground PVP 10vs10

While i respect  Runescape as one of the more popular free to play mmorpgs, World of Warcraft is on the different level when it comes to absolutely every aspect of the game.

Runescape is a free game that has maybe 50-100k thousands active players, while World of Warcraft has 4-5 million players that are paying monthly fee (10-15 USD, depending on region).

Not at all, and there are thousands of guides for every aspect of World of Warcraft.Best source of info is probably wowhead.

They are unrelated except for the lore and creatures, i guess.  I did play all 3 as you did, but WoW was something to go against the likes of Everquest and the several many others from Japan and Korea, France, US, etc.

This game clicked, i think it was (is?) the most popular ever in the history of online gaming. And this is a subscription game so imagine that, no pay no play, unlike several many free to play (and often prettier) alternatives.

There is some free to watch drama on Youtube called "The Guild" i think, that portrays this feeling. Maybe it helps watching it to understand the phenomenon.

The Warcraft games you mention are not really RPG, but Action strategy, Warcraft came after Command & Conquer and Dune 2 and its almost the same thing. Then they developed further, and added some more lore and background. Since its their IP, they kept going further, and further, and further...

Tho at this point most should agree a ("Fantasy RPG") is pretty much shared nearly public domain IP, that should perhaps go more to Tolkien, but that's too long a discussion to make here.

Anyone can make a "Fantasy" game with Warriors, Archers, Magicians, Humans, Elfs and Orcs etc. Some are a bit more original than that, but people seem to be attached to the Tolkien legacy. funny that Bethesda didn't act on this, since they were so successful with their solo playing games...

Bethesda reacted a bit late with their  The Elder Scrolls Online that was released in 2014. Mmorpgs are not as popular as they used to be 10-15 years ago and it is not an easy job to get big share market  when you have World of Warcraft as main competition.


Few days before release, Blizzard decided to open 5 new EU English realms due high interest.

Quote
At this time, all realms that have a Full or High population tag are expected to experience extended queues. We urge players on realms marked Full or High to plan to play on one of these new realms to avoid the longest queues, and to help spread the player population as evenly as possible and provide the best play experience for everyone.

WoW Classic might have over 1 million players at the launch, interest is much bigger than Blizzard thought, and it is definitely good news for all of us that plan to play it.

I've been paying my  Wow subscription with ingame gold for years, and many others that have some extra gold or can't afford paying with real money. As I explained before, it is fairly easy to farm enough for monthly subscription.

Private servers are fine, but nothing can compare with quality of official Blizzard servers. I tried them out of curiousity, and they have too many bugs for my taste. It's like saying that fake iPhone you bought for 100 USD is the same as the original one. At first it may look like a real thing, but after using it for some time you will notice the difference.

That is the reason why top guild from private servers are coming to Classic.

I keep getting the urge to pick of classic for old time's sake on retail.
But I'm also cringing over the memory of 40-man raids and fighting over purples. 
I wish it were pure Vanilla. I miss WoW before the PVP incentives came in.  It was a fun stress killer.
