Nostalrius is now officially a third world server.

NPCs are failing to load in main cities, have to relog next to them in order to make them appear.

PvP is impossible despite having 30 ping, can't imagine what it would be like for people in NA.

Communication in person is IMPOSSIBLE, 90% of the people you find in person are Chinese and speak 0 English, all you see is empty chat bubbles. Zones are PACKED and even in general chat it takes ages to find people for dungeons because everyone is Chinese and don't understand what LFG/LFM means. I had like 5 different people spamming me "dark abyss invite?" "dark abyss invite?" "dark abyss invite?" "dark abyss invite?" when I was leveling in Ashenvale, I guess they were referring to Blackfathom Depths.

BGs are unplayable, all Chinese people just run around doing nothing or AFK.

This problem will persist and keep getting bigger and bigger until the owners get off their high horses and stop bragging about their "HURR WORLD FIRST 13K PLAYERS ONLINE STABLE PRIVATE SERVER" mentality

stop being racist

How am I being racist? This is a real problem happening right now, everyone is experiencing it so it is indeed a fact.

[Kogmawn]

I think he's predicting the incoming replies, not calling you racist.

Nostalrius PvP is now officially a third world server.

Fixed that for you. Life is great on the PvE server.

[Dodgemade]

Life is also great on the PvP server. Just gotta take some bad with the good, as always.

Really depends on the time you get on U.S Hours are great honestly, could always go PVE if you don't like it. I feel like i'm role playing everytime i get on there.

So that would be ~$136,000 ÷ ~200 servers or ~$700/day per server.

Now Blizz has some 5k employees and has had a bloated budget for years and this is only one patch so I imagine the cost is obviously cheaper but still, the hardware and bandwidth alone is a cost you pay exactly nothing for, much less time energy. The only problem I can relate to is low view distance (I don't bg yet). I've
met and grouped with very nice Chinese people. Being from EU I'm sure you're familiar with the term austerity cuts? (by the way there's really no such thing as 1st world anymore). Clearly you're hopes for vanilla wow are high as are mine. It's simply the best game I've ever played. Who knows, maybe Nost itself is some kind of social experiment but considering the grounds you have as a free player maybe your pitch would be heard better if it were more thoughtful. You sound to me like you're delusional with entitlement.

The term "third world" is by itself ignorant.

Sure some people are bad at english. Buhuu... The only people I have ever seen QQ about that are english speaking people who are to lazy to learn more than one language themselves.
