He’s dead, Jim.

Every starting zone on Kezan is a wasteland.

what class should i roll? if i want to tank?

>>719100245 (OP)
what happened this time bruce

>>719100872
u can choose any of them bro
warr pala druid are all viable

>tens of thousands online at a time
>free to play but also has a cash shop for cosmetic stuff and services like race changes
>been out for years
>Blizzard seems to ignore it completely
Why is that?

>>719101445
they cant do shit to things operating out of us law

>>719100245 (OP)
Didn't realize it came out. How bad did it end up being? Tempted to roll a character and drop it at 60 for the 100000000th time because I love WoW leveling and 5 mans and hate raids.

>>719100886
came out same time as ambershire which siphoned everyone away

>>719101445
servers are in some third world EU country with no laws, blizzard cant touch them

>>719102628
Just loads of bugs but they are slowly fixing things. They should have sold to ascension 3 months ago

>>719101445
Servers are in Romania or some shit,nothing Blizzard can do.

>>719102628
Wait a while, it's buggy as fuck.

>>719103220
To be fair, isn't Turtle faster with warmode and all the extra areas they've added over the years? I just hit sixty on Nordrannar and there's still zones I've never visited. Leveling was great on Turtle with warmode and constant tent rested buffs.

>>719103275
>>719103376
warmane servers are in fucking france
they just can't be assed or the law is very grey or they realized when they tried it with nostalrius it had the opposite effect

>>719103887
it is, Turtle is borderline 2x with tents but it has a focus on leveling challenges and 1-60 takes too long originally.
Slow and Steady is more like 1x with tents.

>>719101445
Portable moonwells, 36 slot bags, portable stable master, banks, AH, mailbox, reagant, ammo vendors are all very not p2w.

>>719100245 (OP)
New content is sparse and very weak.
I'd rather wait for that shitty p2w bronezberad instead. At least there IS something new.

>>719100245 (OP)
Turtle won. Ambershire won.

>>719102628
>bugged quests everywhere
>frequent server crashes
>custom content is surprisingly high quality when it works but there isn’t that much of it and most of it is concentrated in the low level zones

>>719105132
None of those things are in the shop retard, this isn't Turtle.
So many faggots are assmad about these servers having 20k people between them, non-stop turtle trannies spamming general chat. Even this thread was created by a man pretending to be a woman.

Turtleniggers are expanding to /v/, I see. Epoch's population is stable between all servers, so keep crying about it with endless threads.

>>719105942
I'm talking about Turtle, not Epoch.

>>719106012
Turtle "fans" care more about shitting where other people eat than playing on their server

>>719105893
They frontloaded all the custom changes in the first 20 levels when it was really the 40-50 slog that sucked. 30-40 wasn't too good either.

How autistic do you even have to be to wage tribalistic warfare over f2p private wow servers?
Play wherever you want, stop being gay and retarded.

>Turtle
>pve crossfaction tranny shit
>Epoch
>buggy unstable unbalanced thirdworlder shit

Fuck them both honestly.

>>719106231
often its people paid to do it. big private servers are money makers. you see it a lot here because 4chan enables plausible deniability with the whole anonymity thing.

im leveling 30-40 in wsg and its pretty fun, gonna be reaching 40 with full pvp gear and just gonna own every single person I see in the world

>>719100872
Warrior. You never how broken Paladin is tweaked in private servers. Same with Druid.

>Blizzard focusing too much on Retail(s)
>Turns out nobody wants to play Classic Panda
>Even /wowcg/ died prematurely during Panda's release
>Panda Classic going to lose massive amount of playerbase to Midnight

I have lurked on WoW threads ever since Epoch launched. This has been so depressing.

>>719100245 (OP)
BLIZZARD WON AGAIN, BABY!!!

>>719108092
MoP………lost…?

>>719108092
Was cata classic somehow less dead? I thought even blizzard had given up at that point

>>719108228
Cataclysm had hype because people wanted pre-nerf Heroics and raiding content. Blizzard pussied out and gave the final patch for reasons that it would hurt feelings. They knew they fucked it up because they rushed Panda Classic fast.

>>719108223
>MoP………lost…?
Yes. They are going to speed up the Phase timelines to WoD. WoD will also be sped up for obvious reasons.

>>719105132
Correct, convenience is not p2w.

>>719100245 (OP)
when will chuds admit, classic wow gameplay sucks??

>>719108409
The classic experiment is over. None of the people who claimed MoP was a hidden gem all along even showed up to play it. There’s no expacs left to drum hype over.

>>719107417
some broken private servers can be fun, I was on some shitty RP p server that
>made paladin seal of command trigger on all hits
>didn't have hunter pets with increased aggro skills, instead they did 6x damage

>load up server
>3.3.5a locked at level 60 until I want more
>waifu bots there ready to adventure
>game map is a mix of old world, a little cata stuff, and custom stuff
>have full control of rates, drops, etc
>custom changes to all classes and races, plus may additional races
>dont care for it but it came with a simulated chat with stupid barrens chat-tier shit being spammed
>go as fast or slow as I want at any time
Pretty nice experience.

>>719108604
I was interested to try Cataclysm Phase 1 solely for pre-nerfed Heroics as a Tank Warrior. I am probably not the only one who enjoyed TBC's Heroics.

I will fulfill that promise on a Cataclysm Private Server if there will be such.

>Want to play WoW purely for shitpost reasons
>Solo dungeons as Hunter in Classic
>Solo TBC Dungeons with WoTLK talents
>People tell me to make my own Private Server.

Is it hard to make your own Private Server? It seems that Warmane's Lordaeron could be a good substitute for WoTLK. As for Classic I don't want to pay monthly fee for an expirement. I'm not a huge fan of Turtle WoW's talents at all.

>>719105132
>portable moonwells
the fuck do these even do? i never played druid

>>719109778
only thing i can think of is let tailors make mooncloth

>>719100886
>15k signed accounts

Project Epoch was solely made for them to play and enjoy. Normies were not welcomed.

>>719108734
>playing with chatbots is so fun! trust me bro!

>>719108604
there's also a general exhaustion
wow has never had this much "content" to play at the same time
people play 3 versions of the game and get burned out
by every possible metric (outside of lore/pvp) mop is better than say wrath

>>719110253
You're a month behind bro. The server has been live for 2 weeks and they let Ascension develop it now

i like video game generals but they always end up getting taken over by social engineers like shenna or the novel ai team

>>719110507
Nothing wrong with turning the game into a normal RPG with RTS elements.
I still play on other servers. Still feels like playing with bots.

>>719110806
Is it playable now? It left me a sour taste. Altough it was super funny lurking on /vg/ the entire shitshow that was the launch weekend.

>>719110998
Yeah tons of people have hit 60 already

>>719110998
Playable but not worth it. It's a bugfest. Half of abilities don't scale properly or don't work at all. Hunter pets are so busted they solo entire dungs and you get murdered by greys in pvp.

>>719105132
I'm stacking leveling challenges to get a bunch of those things for free :^)

>>719111583
Slow and steady feels pretty normal to me for the rewards you get. Shocked it only effects xp from kills and isn’t 0.5x gains across the board.

>>719105132
None of those things are pay to win but I will admit I love when people bust those things out and I can use them without donating a dime. Those little repair bots summons are godsends in classic after a rough dungeon

>>719112221
The biggest internet blackpill is realizing people this retarded are allowed to publish posts online

>>719113042
some people are still stuck in the early 2010s idea of p2w=power increase and nothing else

>>719110735
>by every possible metric (outside of lore/pvp) mop is better than say wrath
Fuck Pandas. I refuse to play this expansion no matter how good the PVP and raiding might be. It's not Warcraftian anymore.

>>719108092
CATA killed WoW Classic as it killed TBC, and people waited til Wrath to play it back
Everyone hates TBC and Cata+

>>719114230
>Fuck Pandas
imagine the jiggle

Played Epoch for ten minutes, made a mage and instantly discovered that Frost Armor resets mob leashing. Funserver tier garbage.

i'm enjoying turtle wow
just completed stormwrought descent

>>719108092
Dial 8

>>719108734
show me the way to get this

never cared about vanilla, more modern private servers are my thing

happy I stayed on turtle.

>>719109836
that is exactly the only thing portable moonwells are for

>>719111816
yeah slow and steady is pretty sweet. especially when you enjoy the leveling and not just doing raids

>>719105132
if some faggot has to have a 36 slot bag and a repair bot so I can play for free and the devs keep developing it, I don't give a fuck it doesn't affect me

I'm playing both......

it's been pretty fun so far
the 1k bugs will take some time to fix, yes

t. epog enjoyer

why should they care?

>>719100245 (OP)
i deleted my character, too much weird antisocial behavior, official classic killed off all the real interaction with this game

>>719113042
>>719113627
How the fuck is it not?

>Be Mists at Launch
>People fucking it over and demanding classic servers or playing Classic private servers
>Be Mists Classic Launch
>People fucking it over by Blizzard releasing Classic WoW again and Seasons of Discovery, Modified lore Private servers due to WoW being ass for lore and Norma WoW Private Classic servers

History does fucking repeat itself it seems.

>>719116329
Nostalrius happened during WoD, quit with your Panda persecution complex

>>719110253
Ascension ended up ignoring the poll and wiping the server anyway, which probably means Dutch (ascension lead dev) will add in pay2win shit sooner or later.

It's sarcasm, all of those things listed are p2w.

>/epog/ has a dedicated troll who very overtly concern trolls and advertises Turtle for hours and hours a day
>straight up just admits he was posting about Turtle for 4 hours straight one day
>a few of his posts finally get deleted
>yesterday, a thread advertising Turtle and full of his usual images is posted here
>today, a thread shitting on Epoch and coincidentally advertising Turtle 5 posts in is posted here
This is just sad, man.

>>719115895
wut?

I've been running into plenty of normal people. Every dungeon group I've assembled has been chill, except for one person who left without saying anything. Most people are friendly, but just want to level and quest in peace. Quest drops being shared has also led me to group with way more people, I really like that change.

>>719119104
who even cares?
what kind of retard gets swindled by the shill posts?
you look what the type of gameplay server offers, you check the pop, and you decide if you want to play there
anything else is retarded

conquest of azeroth was the most fun i've had playing vanilla wow in about ten years and I'm not ashamed to admit it. I wish they would stop redesigning classes for the 400th time and just fucking release it

>>719119380
>I wish they would stop redesigning classes for the 400th time and just fucking release it
First time on ascension? They are milking wotlk for over 6 years at this point. They will milk coa for at least another 3.
They were cockblocking black temple and sunwell for fucking 4 years.
Bronzebeard is probably gonna be released next but even that will take a year since they need to milk new season first.

>>719119330
>what kind of retard gets swindled by the shill posts?
Nigger where do you think you are?

>>719119319
>Quest drops being shared has also led me to group with way more people, I really like that change.

That's just Wrath cause Epoch isn't really Vanilla+

>>719119330
/vg/ threads are annoying when 10% of an entire thread are one guy replying to himself.

>>719119380
silly to call it vanilla when so much is redesigned/improved (not even talking about classes)
a lot of classes still look like dogshit so they absolutely do need to redesign
their biggest mistake was shoehorning in all these classes and specs at once instead of releasing like 10 baseline and adding a new one every few months

>>719119380
Does Pyromancer get to do anything other than spam fireballs?

>>719110998
Yes
>Ascension acquired them
>got everything working in a week
>buggy, but bug fixes have been deployed
I personally encountered 4 bugs: 1 out of maybe 1,000 mobs getting "stuck" after getting feared, a quest in Barrens being bugged, a quest in Silverpine being bugged, and an enchanting quest being bugged
>PvP gear while leveling is too good and too easy to upgrade, will be rebalanced
>Hunters are OP
>hunter pets were OP
>melee is easier than casters, except rogues who are suffering
>Rogue poisons were bugged (fixed)
>new quests range from commissions for professions, to basic kill and loot quests, to long chains with custom scripting
>they need to hire an editor
>the overhauled Deadmines and Wailing Caverns were the best custom content I've ever played on a private server, actually 10/10
I'm personally happy, but I'm only 24 and I know I'm going to enter a stretch where there's no new dungeon stuff, which has been by far my favorite aspect of the server. Whoever's doing their mapping and modeling needs their dick sucked.

>>719119319
everyone is just weird and evil in my experience, people will deliberately not help eachother and make easy quests into long slogs because now they have to compete with you, i had people kick me for rolling need on a boe i would equip and was good for me then shittalked me in whispers and ignored me right after for rolling on it, it might be "classic" but the community is just all antisocial twitchfags

>>719119330
1. Like half of this site is 70 IQ third worlders and dumb hicks who believe anything they read online.
2. Anyone who actually wants to talk about anything without being harrassed for it cares, as every single /vg/ thread with a dedicated schizo will tell you. I don't need to read some terminally online loser's pathetic attempt at psy-ops while I'm trying to talk about video games.

>>719120706
1. literal npc fodder that makes the world feel alive, most are fresh hopping retards, who cares
2. just ignore the obvious schizos

>>719120648
Weird, this doesn't align with my experience at all. The worst things I've seen (secondhand) was a hunter being a hunter and ninja'ing loot rolls, and a faggot Russian ninja'ing a chest while the civilized among us were /roll'ing on it. A few people decline party invites when questing, but most of them accept if you tell them that quest drops are shared. I even had one guy bother to explain to me that he just prefers playing solo.

I'm sure I'll run into some bullshit eventually though.

>>719120442
The guy who remade DM/WC left for Ascension like 2 years ago.

WC is good but DM has too many elites spread out for a low level dungeon. Visually nice but not well designed.

>>719121043
FUCK
Also I agree about DM, too many packs of 3 elites

>>719105132
its pay for convenience

human men belong to tauren women

epoch is dead guys wrap it up its over
