I remember being in queue a lot in vanilla, tbc & wolk.

I think the queues will die down soon enough because of the newer WoW players are also trying out classic and will hopefully not stick around because they are scrub nubs yes?

Fuck it, I'll give it a month at least. Alliance on Gehennas it is.
Already had a name reserved there. See you soon.
I'm on Gehennas too, but I'm Horde. What's your names, guys? I'll make sure to not grieve you too much.

My rogue is named after the famous asian backstabbing character from BG2. In fact, I reserved a lot of names from that game. Cause I got no imagination of my own.

I think they won't stick cause Vanilla is primitive compared to Retail.

I hated Retail for a long time cause I quit during Wotlk and it was a casul fest of a game for kids. But now I came back in BFA and boy was I surprised. It's quite an experience.

I played on and off since release, but haven't bought BFA yet, vanilla and TBC were my favourites. WoLK the game came with a lot of quests I hated, a lot of interactive quests and shit I hated. I preferred grinding mob livers & kills.

What Codex realms am I looking for when it comes to PVP Horde, EU and NA respectively?

How are RP servers in the raiding department? I've always had this image in my head that they don't do very well, but I have nothing to back that up with lol.

I never raided, but had a friend that did that played on a RP server. It was either Steamwheedle or Earthen ring, can't remember... but there was no problem for him.

I mean do they clear raids in a reasonable amount of time, or do they clear the hardest difficulty mode on retail, etc.

That I have no idea about. I just know he spent many hours raiding and counting DKP points.

I logged in around 5:20 PM Eastern to discover a 10,000+ queue and a 80 minute wait. It's like vanilla all over again!

What queue? :D

Gehennas-EU PvP and playing Alliance as Ninjerk. Horde is going to be overpopulated. Alliance queues are gonna be instant and World PvP plentiful. :positive:

Got in, but god damn the lag. I'm gonna wait until things get more stabilized.

Latency is really good. 21ms. But stuff jerks around.

So my 90 minute queue went down to 68 and is now back up to 87 (fewer people in queue). :lol: I wonder how many people signed up at the last minute and completely threw their analytics off.

I doubt they didn't think of that eventuality. I suspect they didn't want to open too many servers in case people just start leaving in droves after 2 weeks.

Those are rookie numbers, my queue time is 585 minutes. That's what you get when they choose to implement a single Oceanic PVP server

I see the streamers are able to play.

If you confronted me with two options, one to kill streaming off and one to end world hunger... sorry Ethiopia.
