Returning to wow to find a dead server

2005/6 vibes for me back when Star Wars Galaxies was eviscerated by SOE/Lucas Arts. Absolutely dead server and other servers as well.

Most of ravencrest is gone. Once a high population server now a low pop server

I hope this out of date game closes. Enough with that greed

I was in Bigglesworth when I joined my guild. They moved to Sulfuras before WOTLK, I couldn’t afford to so I lost my guild. THEN, WOTLK scrapped Bigglesworth all together, so I ended up in Sulfuras for free lmao.

$25 is literally daylight robbery for a character transfer. Actual ripoff.

lol good

why is server Transfer not free ?

Well they server squished now anyways which was needed. And gave free transfers. Wow classic just didn’t have the population to sustain so many servers like in the old days. Now that it’s happened basically no one pays for server transfers anymore since it’s all steady.
It will only become an issue if the entire wow classic population starts to ramp up a lot. Which I don’t see happening really, even with wrath released which saw numbers grow..it hasn’t been that much.

haha 25 dollars for transfer ???? wait does someone need to cary the character physically to other server to make it cost this much ????? wow seems even blizzard is milking their own customers as much possible before the fall

Pretty much same everywhere. All mine are new players now except Blackrock. Entire guild switched to Horde on Destromath.

I logged into wow last weekend for the first time since first bfa patch and it was so sad to see most of my character's guilds were dead and some were straight up kicked. But some survived so it wasnt all bad

its blizzards fault beeing money fetish to pay every month to play this game

Well I know that feeling

character transfer should not exist.. its just ruining the game and servers

If i really need to pay $25 just to go out of a dead server i wouldn't pay a shit.

If that server died, whats gonna give the guarantee the others won't end dead too? i would to lvl up another character whenever i want to play.

No one cared about TBC 😅

This game is dogshit and whoever is still playing it is just giving it more survival time

WOTLK Classic in 6 months

Imaging playing money to play a videogame that wastes your life time. Incredible stupidity

I personally think that transfer shoud be FREE.
And I altho think that someone shoud look at blizzard for player rights.
Because it nonsence!!!!
You pay to buy game
You pay to play a game
You come back - company MUST be happy for returned player(even if not returnes, just anyone from plays their game)
What we have!
Dead servers, MANY servers.
AAAAAAND????
Transfer for money!
Fucking bulshit! That is TOTAL SCUM!
And that happens not only on classic servers.
I have done transfer on retail 2 years ago.
3 times, to transfer my VERY old characters!
I have more, but I dont want to pay 200 for peace of shit...
I think someone need to stop Blizzard.
Whos fault that server is dead.
Here is very easy to explain.
You buy service to play a MMO game.
When you log in on your exist server you realize that you ALONE on whole server online. You look at AH and there is ZERO possitions!
Before online on server was ALWAYS FULL!
So, whos is the problem?
Player who payed for a game. Doeas he receive service? OFC no. What he have is service is bad or NON competent?
RIHGT! Money back, excuses etc etc etc etc etc.
Company HELP people = players to SOLVE issue!
Not ASK for another 25$.
I understand that for Bobby 25$ is less that for 25c. But we have LAW and that shoud be stopped by goverment level!
They not understand fines. That mean they WILL understand when will they start going to jail.
And first one who MUST go there is Bobby!

its almost like wow classic was a joke game and the blizzard devs were right when they said "you think you do, but you dont" about wanting it back

How does this have 1 million views?….

blizzard purposly gave a single faction on each server free Xsfers so that the rest have to pay to make it to a server that has both horde an alliance on it. its why 95% of all servers not are single faction, say 17k horde and only 4 alliance characters. blizzard does this shit on purpose to make money. fuck blizzard, they molest their interns and whoever else they can get their hands on. instead of making actual good gameplay changes, they made it so that your character can now be a transgender, wow blizzard amazing.

Dead servers are used to farm rare items that are hard to get with high population, and then transfer.

"Taxes may apply."

25 FUCKING DOLLARS FOR CHARACTER TRANSFER? YOU CAN BUY WITCHER 3 GAME OF THE YEAR EDITION FOR LESS LMAO WTF

to be fair this is between the final patch and an expansion so it's going to be dead.....all games like this even ffxiv

Just logged into a wow classic sever that was once full pop at the start of the game when my friends and I all leveled to 60 together.

(Bigglesworth) was only 1 of 22 people on….7 total items on the auction house….never seen anything like it in real wow

Wow, blizzard is raking money like madman from fools that yet havent learned to quit

Not only are you guys now paying the subscription
Now you are paying a full price indie game with all of its dlcs
Just to shuffle your character around the servers once in a while

And well
Depending on number of characters you are moving

You are paying a brand new triple A game price, along your subscrptions

Im sorry for people who suffer from serious addiction problems and cant quit this game, i hope they seek help
And for the rest of you fools
I laugh at you

I view the 25$ character transfer as a moral evil

Wrath will follow the same path, some of you will wisen up and join me and others on f2p private servers

This happened to me when I logged into classic i was so mad

You hear that? Turtle WoW is calling 👍

what it feels like to come back to any of blizzard stuff

I find it funny people didn't expect this to happen. Classic is just a passing fad for the majority. There are some hardcore players that live for certain expansion but it's such a minority the servers end up being dead. Majority move to over populated servers for the social/competative side of things.

I loved playing TBC at launch never dreamed of picking up classic - been there done that. It was awesome at the time I know for a fact id be the same as the others play it for a month and then forget about it.

RIP WOW and to all my fellow Azerothians. It was fun while it lasted.

$25 to play the game because something happened which you have no control over.

I can't believe anyone has ever been willing to play a game that milks them this hard.

-_- dunno why I expected more than this

Farm all the mats

Yep they want to milk money from transfers instead fix servers .. Money for me isn't issue but out of principle i quit instead supporting Blizzard greed

If your realm is dead, meaning practically no Alliance and Horde players are active, you get a free realm transfer.

returning to a dead game, produced by a dying company.

Why do servers die though?

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." - John 3:16 KJV

Blizzard cant be dead if its still milkin tf outa us

,,Pokaż dupe " from Polish in English is ,,Show your ass" .👏

Nice i subscribed on this!!!

It’s insane how dead and unbalanced bc servers are , and instead of fixing em they charge money for the people who still value and play the game
