  • CosmoBarberri Cosmo (@CosmoBarberri) reported

    @GIBiz Subscriptions to a platform/publisher like Xbox are pretty insulated from these issues, but individual games, even World of Warcraft are not

  • ApparitionGame ApparitionGaming (@ApparitionGame) reported

    @WarcraftDevs Wrath Classic Shadow priests need a huge nerf. Their Dots are way too broken. they have fears out the ***. and mass dispel removes bubble? please pass to whoever works on classic they need another tuning pass for PvP.

  • Rids28 Rid (@Rids28) reported

    Hey world of warcraft, how about you stop sending us promotional stuff so we can spend more money and fix ya queue times, got more emails about wotlk than times I've actually been able to play it @Warcraft

  • John14368622 John (@John14368622) reported

    @astaranx @CMAgovUK I think is not call of duty I think is over watch, StarCraft world of warcraft, crash bandicoot, and all Activision IP more than 80 Iconic IP. Is kind of strange when you add. Bethesda to the equation like half of US IP are on Microsoft actually more like 80% of the Western IP

  • frizzaud Geoffrey_docket (@frizzaud) reported

    @theuntimelydoom @maximum @WarcraftDevs What I mean is you login patch day and have 5 piece of ilvl 6 lower than LFR. Then you need to do content to get the higher ilvl gear. That way you have the fun side of tier set. And obtain power by playing. Probably best solution.

  • CrazyHussar CrazyHussar (@CrazyHussar) reported

    @JenEricLive @Verendormu @Warcraft If they don’t fix paladin (RIP) then a Nightborne Warlock, maybe even Evoker for funsies

  • ADielhof Arco 'Tex' Dielhof (@ADielhof) reported

    @soulsobreezy @GBolum @WarcraftDevs It DOES exist. And with this, it will be back and become an issue. All you need is 1 person to think it is funny to change their loot spec to healer/tank, and snatch that healer/tank item they will never use from the healer/tank. This system not just allows it, it promotes it.

  • Frelstro Frelstro (@Frelstro) reported

    @anniefuchsia @Warcraft Paladin because..well honestly I don’t know anything positiv to tell…uhm..because they glow quite bright and some dungeons are a bit dark?… oh god please fix those trees >.>

  • Numbingarcane Numbing (@Numbingarcane) reported

    Arcane surge initial hit is not modified by rune of power (that it drops) unless you precast rune of power. Arcane surge is not modified by icy flows. Please fix this - a long cast like this should work properly especially in a PvP setting @WarcraftDevs

  • gas_humo Humo Gas (@gas_humo) reported

    @Warcraft I believe blizzard is using bots to **** the queue of the most saturated realm to force people to migrate to their new realms because they dont want to spend more money on tech and hardware to fix the lame pop issue... I DONT BELIEVE FOR A SEC YOUR CLAIMS... you are scammers...

  • Poohskyy Poohboi (@Poohskyy) reported

    @WarcraftDevs if you wanted us to play wintergrasp as it’s intended you should’ve probably fixed the lag before todays changes. #wotlk

  • TheFallen1287 WikkedOne (@TheFallen1287) reported

    @gas_humo @Warcraft @fighterssg Also Ian Hazzikostas is not the problem. The guy isn't good at community managing big surprise that's not his job.

  • miguelhuok miguelhuok (@miguelhuok) reported

    @WarcraftDevs hunters pet's on wrath of the lich king still bug 15 years old when you mount up and dismount youre pets loss 80% of hp and you never get full hp pet when you flight on wrath of the lich king could you fix guys? thank a lot

  • GastrockLogan Logan Gastrock (@GastrockLogan) reported

    @Warcraft Would if I could ever get in. 6 hour queues at 1pm is ridiculous. Paying $15 a month to not play the game. Fix your ****!

  • fastmov3r fastmov3r (@fastmov3r) reported

    @Warcraft how bout lets not dc me while questing and now im in a ****** 8 hr que for the third day in a row. After I’ve been on an questing since 230am. Why are we still paying for the service if i cant ****** play because you kick me while playing an i have no grace period….

  • TeacoonG Teacoon (@TeacoonG) reported

    @haughtychicken @Blizzard_ANZ I first played Warcraft when I was 7 and my first memory was our Dinosaur DELL PC struggling to load Thunderbluff and because I had the tendency to just MASH the keys I spent thirty minutes lagging off the Thunderbluff elevator and I had my first baby gamer rage moment lol

  • prdcsm prdcsm (@prdcsm) reported

    @cdew_wow @WarcraftDevs fix the lag instead blizzard it's still unplayable @WarcraftDevs

  • Ezzaryxd Ezzary (@Ezzaryxd) reported

    @Warcraft Tell the dev team to fix the server queues thanks

  • LithraIRL Lithra (@LithraIRL) reported

    Btw all these classic queues are why I canceled my sub 🙃 I saw this problem way in advance. Anyone who is remotely serious about pvp is doomed to a miserable server experience. How is it ok to wait 6+ hours to even level on a populated server @WarcraftDevs. Fix your ****.

  • RinTheMage Rin the Mage (@RinTheMage) reported

    @Tyrsenus @soulsobreezy @WarcraftDevs Yeah true. That's just PR. But one of the things that confuses me is like I understand why people liked personal loot over group loot but all the original problems with group loot have been addressed with the new version. Personal loot really wasn't that good at all.

  • awe_lloyd Dean Svoboda (@awe_lloyd) reported

    @WarcraftDevs yo fix your fking game, u scrapped honor farm, so make the bg ******* NOT LAGGING OK?? 120x120 people wtf is that ****

  • juullllls juuls (@juullllls) reported

    World of Warcraft is ******* stupid it’s $80 PER 6 MONTHS TO PLAY. PEOPLE PAY $20 AND PLAY A GAME FOR LIFE I KNOW “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it” BUT I WANT IT FIXED

  • HattonJacob Jacob Hatton (@HattonJacob) reported

    @soulsobreezy @WarcraftDevs I agree - but I also think part of why Group loot isn’t nice for LFR is because of the content - raids are quite long, quite boring, even when broken up into sections. No one wants to repeatedly farm that content for gear because the content isn’t that fun to play.

  • QuatoofCapital Quatoof Capital (@QuatoofCapital) reported

    @WallStreetSilv So many problems would be avoided if all gov officials were required play world of warcraft. Those black lotuses are expensive due to supply constraints. Nothin personnel, kid.

  • Jessvonwill Jessfacedown (@Jessvonwill) reported

    @soulsobreezy @WarcraftDevs TBH this feels like a community problem, not a devs problem. If you're running content for something you want, you are fully entitled to roll on that item if it drops. If people want to complain, ignore them, they don't deserve it anymore than you do.

  • Townson_Druid Maliras Townson (@Townson_Druid) reported

    @GossipCurlG @Warcraft Since you started legion with a demon hunter you missed another sad cinematic other player characters see in the starting scenario. If you want to see it search for "Battle for the broken shore-Alliance/Horde" there're two versions of it, one for each faction.

  • RealMakazarx MKUltraKazar (@RealMakazarx) reported

    @Warcraft @warcraftdevs you'll lose more money by not paying to fix the queues. People wanna play, you prevent 10,000 of them. You think the returning players wont just quit if they cant play with their friends and they cant play the game? Sad business model.

  • keivamp1 keivamp (@keivamp1) reported

    @bakedkuma @Warcraft only problem is i don't have the money to play--lol

  • TyHeals TyHeals (@TyHeals) reported

    Would love to play some Classic Wrath on Faerlina… if I transfer off I’ll end up on a dead realm in a month where I can’t play the game either… guess I’ll just never get to play unless I login at 6am EST everyday.. @WarcraftDevs very sad :/

  • DrtDemon DRT Demon (@DrtDemon) reported

    @K4verr @Wowhead @WarcraftDevs Ur literally mad you get tier sets earlier? People DONT play the game have you seen the statistics?recruiting for a top 300 guild is brutal and barely manageable, been this way since sanctum. This change adds more loot protection which was a huge issue this expac
