What? You think shutting down most popular server is the way to bring legacy servers up by blizzard? What happend when Nostalrius went down? Blizzard didnt give a shit, so why would it make difference now?
10% of players only xferred lol what? Elysium had barely 500-800 players online before merge, and to get BGs going on u had to spam discord for hordes to que if u wanted to play a Battleground.
First server having 15k ppl online crashing login, open another new server with +10k pop and 20k on queue.. Still have old PVE serv with 3-5k, and now third server, new one with similiar population to old PVE.. HELLO?
For example i could only transferr my 2 main accounts, 2 warriors, it took me approx 4-6hours, one sit without breaks spamming refresh and "forward" button with millions of "page went down" errors becouse of amount of people trying to do the same.
So i didnt bother try get my other 3x 60 alts, (3x different accounts), or my old nostalrius banks, a couple of accounts, a couple hundred of hours of farming, which seemed fine i got my main char and i just wanted to play and let others spam website for their accounts, but then you pull this out?
Well thats okay, my bad, but the fact that i know and can name plenty or more like handfull of people right now that wasnt around back then becouse of upcoming x-mas event, they were visiting their family and had no acces to create account or sit 6 hours stuck trying to do it, so i feel sad for them, we are not able to play together again like we used to, i dont really care about my alts and banks that much, this bunch of people includes alot of my real life and online friends that are important to me, and most of them are not nerds like me and play 20hours / day so its prob thats it for them.
One friend who played on Nostalrius a year ago got to 60 finally, got some gear and few pvp ranks, it was really hard to get him into any project after that, but i did it and got him to play on Elysium, he didnt make it to 60 becouse his computer crashed and it took sometime for him to get a new PC, and now hes been trying ask from me for weeks why he cant still transferr his character... so..
10% only transferred? From my side, from only me and my hands, amount of accounts would be more than tripled... more like 15x... Include all of their alts and banks and friends too. And everyone tbh... This is just ridiculous i think what u are doing or saying... Why didnt u think further then? You just wanted to knock blizz head with a stick and get attention? Didnt work so now u try something else?
please stop hurting us on mental level by doing something like this...
And whats up with all the T-Shirt campaings? What the fuck seriously?
I dont have much time to write or think about this right now, but for sure its all really shady and wierd.
Hopefully its just some junkie GMs funny joke.
You go back old core and remove chars? RIP server just bury it.
