I think I'll roll on a PvP or an RP-PvP server. STV is gonna be legendary, don't wanna miss out on that saltmine :lol:

Is it even possible to avoid the zone while leveling?

Hey Williammunny, from what I’ve heard transfers back in the day were very limited and expensive too. Also I believe one restriction was you could only go PvP to PvE.

Normally I would pick PvP, but seeing as right-click banning is most likely going to be a thing at release, and since I do not relish the idea of losing leveling time or farming efficiency bc of corpse gankers I will (probably) be choosing a mid pop PvE server.
However, ultimately my choice if server is going to depend on what type of guild I can find/join before the actual release of Classic and which server they are going to choose.

Really unsure, I would like to go for PVP for the thrill of the hunt, but I will surely RP this time, some maybe for that an RP-PVE is best suited... Probably will have characters in both :D

What is RP-PvE like ? Are there any private servers for that atm ?

Nope, PVE servers itself are REALLY rare, no way an RP-PVE would be sustainable. But RPing inside a PVE realm is already good to give you an idea on how would it work. It's really a different way of play the game that (in my opinion) give a lot of replayability value to whoever has leveled a ton of times.

For example, on Turtle-Wow I RP a lot as a traveling salesman, going around gathering things and selling them manually to people. It was very funny and a new way of play the game (that I will surely re-do sometimes).

You can be whoever you want, every time, anywhere. It's really funny and unique, and you can really craft your path. Give it a try on any PVE server you can find :-)

I am curious to know how many servers we will get, with what labels and their names.

Completely new names, or old server names for nostalgia? Though I can't imagine them making all the servers they had at launch back in Vanilla.

Will be interesting to see, and to decide what server will be ones home.

Don't know if there's another thread for this, but would you guys want to play on a server where a popular streamer plays on too?

I can imagine the server will be more populated because of people wanting to play with said streamer. So finding groups might be easier on these servers. But I can also imagine people want to avoid these servers and the fanbase.

Also, can you even control this on releaseday? Like how am I gonna know which realms will be populated and which won't?

I'll try to actively avoid rolling on a server where a popular streamer plays on, servers where a crowd is drawn to because of a player or guild can end up being pretty toxic. That's been my experience when I rolled on Tarren Mill EU at least, which is where Preach plays, and the home of top guilds like Method, and before them Ensidia. I still regret server transferring to it many years ago, and it's difficult to get off of it now since I have like 8 max level characters on it.

I honestly think you'll be fine even if your server ends up being mid pop, high pop servers do make things slightly easier, and we all like to see the world being as alive and active as possible, but they're not always fun and games either, you do lose a bit of that tightly knit community feeling with them.

I think PVP just maximizes the experience. Looking forward to the Stranglethorn Vale battles that await.

At first I considered the idea of playing on a streamer's server (thinking it would guarantee liveliness) but after coming across this video, I think my answer is going to be no. I don't remember streamers being a part of my vanilla experience, and therefore, I think I'll be quite happy without that chaos in Classic. If you want a few things to consider, check out the video I'm talking about below. :eek:
