Our next WoW Classic stress test is getting underway tomorrow at 2:00 p.m. PDT. Here’s some additional information to help you make the most of it.
Launcher Update
Earlier today, we updated the Blizzard Battlenet Launcher on the World of Warcraft game screen. It’s now easier to select the version of the game you want to play. Now, when you look in the Live section of the Version dropdown, you should now see an additional option for World of Warcraft Classic . If you have multiple accounts for your selected version, you’ll see a second dropdown with your accounts listed to choose among.
In order to participate promptly in the stress test tomorrow, please make sure you install the game in advance by selecting World of Warcraft Classic from your Live accounts list.
Realm Differences
During tomorrow’s stress test, we plan to experiment with different settings that control the population of players. We plan for it to be a blind test, so we don’t intend to publicize which realms have which settings (or when).
We’d love to hear your feedback on your experience from level 1-15 on whichever realm you choose to test. Was it too crowded, even for a launch day experience? Did it feel too empty or too crowded after you moved to the second zone? We’ll have a dedicated feedback thread for you here in this forum tomorrow, once the stress test has begun. Please give us details about your experience when you submit feedback to that thread, especially which realm you tested.
Thank you very much!
So it is still only for the NA guys?
I must say it's weird to betatest something AND pay for that. That's outsourcing I would approve in my company. :biggrin:
Yes, Blizzard North would never have done that either. But now that this fucking company called Activision is on board, something like this has to happen.
Activision is just the downfall of Blizzard and the good games they used to make.
Hopped on the stress test last night (I'm an undead mage named Jerkface) and had major feels (do people even say that anymore?) Super nostalgic... enough so that it didn't even bother me to compete with 50 other people for the tap on a starting area quest mob. It was just nice to be re-experiencing the game as I did when it was released, perhaps even more authentically since I didn't start playing vanilla until a couple months after launch.
I got to level 6 last night and I'm hoping to get to 10 this evening so I can hop into a few Warsong Gulches and get one shotted by lvl 15 rogues. Hit me up in game later if you're on. I'm on PVP Server 15, I think it's called.
Cheers.
And it's starting today :)
I hope that servers will be good enough to handle with thousands od people playing same time :)
