Thread 1871346

Epoch WoW is a private server launching tomorrow (7/25/25). This is a 3.3.5 Wrath client that is tweaked towards the original 1.12 WoW Vanilla version and also a little TBC. Players can download everything they need from the Epoch website to reserve 2 names before launch. Note, the Epoch launcher when asked to "Install" must be saved inside your the 3.3.5 Wrath folder that contains all the game information; same folder where then original WoW launcher resides.

https://www.project-epoch.net/

The Discord is open to all, but please refrain from using any sexually related comments or using the pregnant emojis, this will result in a ban. We are a serious project that has dedicated years of our time and want a wholesome community experience for all. Bashing the LBGBTQ is something we don't support.

https://discord.com/invite/mzCSaZYWuC

Be advised, we are expecting a launch population of over 40 thousand plus players, so expect Qs and possible down times. Gurubashi PvP realm will definitely be able to handle 95% of that 40k pop. Kezan is a our test realm so please don't make a Character on that realm or else you'll waste your time.

>troon server
no thanks. not investing my time just to get banned for "misgendering" some faggot

My apologies, the actual launch date is
>7/26/25.

I have a special form of autism and this causes many issues for me daily and I've just been so stressed these past few days handling the Discord moderation. Please forgive my mistake and we welcome you to Epoch WoW.

>>1871346 (OP)
>can't call my niggas my niggas in discord
>can't use my preferred choice of humor against whatever groups or categories I want

I almost don't want to play!

>>1871353
We strive very hard to be all inclusive to everyone, but hatred toward the transcended community will not be tolerated.

>>1871358
You can say that all you want in the Discord, but we have those words auto blocked. Please, just enjoy our server and refrain from any hate speech.

>>1871358
literally me, why protect anyone ffs just have open season anyone is a target with one or two staff members dropping the banhammer on the people that are taking it too far (spamming shit constantly for example) - dropping a YWNBAW shouldn't be a reason to exile a player

>>1871366
Well I'm a Community Moderator and had to ban those trolls who kept spamming pregnant emojis and other sexually explicit comments that go against our community policy. Making jokes about trans people is unacceptable and these people deserved their perma ban.

>>1871346 (OP)
Got an elevator pitch? Is it just vanilla in the wotlk client? Why should I play on your server?
Its cool and all that you suck up to the sodomites, but so does Turtle WoW. I could just play there if that's your selling point

You call that a private server advertisement? Here, let me show you how it's done.

Hello, I'm am Retard from TurtleWoW. Here at TurtleWoW you have to suck up to troons and fags or you risk being banned.

Remember to download our special client, and reserve your fagtabulous name!

Be advised, we are expecting a launch with over 9 gorillion users so beware of queues and STDs! I'm sure our servers can handle it though, but better get in fast before the queues!

>>1871381
Epoch WoW has many cool features we've implemented. To many for many for me to list, but you can refer to these videos and our website. Regarding TurtleWoW, we'll Epoch shares similarities, but TurtleWoW is essentially dying so Epoch will be the new server on the block

>>1871406
We're not TurtleWoW though. We've developed way more content than TurtleWoW and have trippled our fetch processing to handle a sever with over 30k pop at time on one server. Turtle WoW can barely handle 5k pop and has rampant betting issues. I have no idea why Turtle is so popular. Besides, it got lucky.

>>1871414
I was just mocking your advertisement because you really don't include any WoW features or selling points in your post - it's all about how much you love fags

>>1871419
I didn't want to write a wall of text. I literally provided the website link. If you're too lazy to even check the website for information, than you're probably too stupid to even figure how to start up the game.

>>1871411
>but TurtleWoW is essentially dying so Epoch will be the new server on the block
There's more than 8k players on turtle wow right now, on the RP server at least. What makes you think it's dying?

>>1871423
> If you're too lazy to even check the website for information, than you're probably too stupid to even figure how to start up the game.
>no screenshots
>all video links
>barely any features mentioned
Geez this community manager isn't very prepared for this. I'm not clicking that shit. If you can't make a competent advertisement, this server must be absolute dog shit

>>1871424
80% of that is Chinese or bots. I use to be on the TurtleWoW team, but left for Epoch because Torta who runs TurtleWoW doesn't care and wants to just make as much money as possible. Epoch WoW wants to provide a safe haven for all those who love WoW. I won't stick around with a project like TurtleWoW where all they care about is profit.

>>1871427
Project Epoch is a community-driven project that aims to enhance and expand the World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King experience, creating a "Classic+" environment. It offers a wealth of new content, including quests, dungeons, and world bosses, while also overhauling existing systems like PvP and professions. The project focuses on providing a richer, more dynamic, and challenging experience for players who enjoy the classic era of WoW.
Here's a more detailed overview:

>New Quests & Stories:
Project Epoch introduces over 1,500 new quests, rivaling the number found in a full expansion, enriching the leveling experience and adding new storylines to every zone.

>Overhauled Dungeons:
Both new and classic dungeons are revamped with new mechanics, loot, and challenges, including updated visuals and expanded narratives.

>World Bosses:
Major world bosses trigger high-stakes PvP encounters, forcing players to fight for powerful rewards.

>Adaptive World:
The world dynamically changes throughout the day, with some quests and encounters only available at certain times, encouraging exploration.

>Class & Race Combos:
8 new class and race combinations are available, offering more options for character customization.
Professions Overhaul:
Each profession gets its own quests and a capstone quest with a unique reward, allowing players to show off their crafting expertise.

>PvP System:
Project Epoch features a PvP system inspired by later expansions, removing the traditional ranking system and focusing on currency-based gear acquisition.

>Dual Specialization:
This feature allows players to switch between two talent builds without respec costs.

>Battleground Queueing:
Players can queue for battlegrounds from anywhere in the world.

>Guild Banks:
The guild bank system from The Burning Crusade is implemented.

>Enhanced Classes:
Classes have been expanded with new talents, abilities, and reworks.
Focus on Challenge & Difficulty:

>jokes about trans people is unacceptable
but jokes about white people are ok?

server is gonna be dead after a week, people are gonna realize they don't actually want a difficult game or to be nice to troons.

>>1871689
I wish you were right, wow fags love troons. Look at Turtle

I HAVE WOW SHILL FATIGUE

>>1871696
turtle has what 50 players? theres alot of shills for it.

>>1871359
That's gay and retarded. Grow a backbone u wimp.

Is this the HorizonXI of WoW?

>>1871346 (OP)
I was originally kinda hype for this, but it doesn't seem like there's much better than what turtle wow is already doing.

Turtle has more dungeons/raids/zones then what I've seen from Epoch.


Infact, Epoch is straight ripping warmode from Turtle, but making it easier/stupider.

The "pick your racials" system is kinda dumb. I understand it's so people don't min-max, but that's not a good way to do it

The ONLY thing that would be better than turtle is the wotlk client

>turtle is filled with bots and chinese
I've been playing here for months now and haven't seen either, there's a gold seller here and there but they get banned asap

The things, if I were to play Epoch, that worry me:
There's a lot of hype already, you think Blizzard isn't going to do anything? They shutdown nostalrius despite being in a country that doesn't uphold copyrights.

>>1872157
Well why haven't they shut down Turtroon?

>>1871359
Don't advertise on 4chan if you're not catering to mentally deficient hwite boys shouting nigger nigger nigger at the top of their lungs.

>>1871359
you will never be a woman.

>>1871371
>jokes about trans people is unacceptable
Why? Are like half of them going to do something bad if you do?

>>1871435
Are lifeskills improved much?

>>1872692

Most troons will try to ban you off the game or server, and the more unhinged ones will try to dox you; or do w/e it takes to lose your livelihood.

>>1872985
>more unhinged
They are all unhinged and by these evil community managers reinforcing their mental illness they are made even worse off than before.

I made a warlock on Alliance Kezan :)

post some complaints so we can laugh at the troon server failing together

>>1874078
the servers couldn't even handle 500 people. it's dead jim

Guys please!!!!! Give us a chance.

>>1871371
If a biological female just replies "Well I'm a biological female :)" to one of those people will she get banned?
asking for a friend

>>1874359
Fix your shit. It's four in the fucking morning, it literally can't be more dead than it is now and it's still full on both servers.

>>1874359
tfw you launch the starfield of private servers

>>1874607
I'm so sick of you cry babies. This is a free server! We're doing our best to combat these issues, all while recieving DDoS attacks at the same time. Why don't you go outside and touch some grass and come back in a couple of hours to try again. Kaytotes literally said in an interview that he doesn't care if some of you even get to play the game, ever. He's fine with only a handle full of people experiencing Epoch and we didn't develop the project for 10 thousand people to be playing. You actually think we want you to have a bad time? You're just making it worse by whining about it.

>>1874692
Buddy, if you can't even fit a thousand players on an MMO server, you shouldn't host an MMO.

>>1874708
SAAAR they spent their budget on hormones please understand.

>>1874709
LOL, embarrassing. Don't advertise your garbage product if you can't follow through. You should have remained in complete darkness.

>>1874708
Even Blizzard had Ques and down times. Maybe you should just go back to Blizzard servers if you can't handle a little extra down time while playing on a free server. Clown Emoji

>>1874710
Bad publicity is good publicity and we're still achieving high pop numbers, just struggling with Que issues which we are working on resolving. It's a free server, you don't have to play here, or just keep crying and will see how it all works out.

>>1874714
do you have an eta on when queues and instability will be fixed?

>>1874714
how are the new quests? Are they just standard like one offs or are there entire story arcs?

>>1874720
Most are standard one off like quests and then we do have many end game level 60 quests with story arcs. If every quest was it's own deep story arc than then the good quests wouldn't be as meaningful.

>>1874359
>>1874692
>>1874711
>>1874714
why would anyone support you or your server when this is how you treat your potential customers? you're acting like a child and only making things worse by posting such petty things

>>1874717
I can not release that information, check the Discord for the latest updates and news. We can assure you that we're doing our best to resolve the issue so more players can jump in. I can tell you this though, the game is packed with players and people seem to be enjoying themselves, but it's your typical private server scene with wild world chat and more. It might be rough right now, but the wait is worth it, despite the Ques, and it will only get better from here on out. I wish I could give you better ETA, but this is something that the Epoch team has to understand as a whole before releasing an official updated statement. Thank you for playing Epoch WoW and we wish you quicker Ques in the future.

>>1874726
Well... When you come at me with an attitude and being rude, Epoch team will clap back and you better be ready or else keep crying about issues for a free game, that will offer you years of gameplay. We've gotten to a point that we realize no matter what we do, the majority of you will not be happy and will just continue to troll us or whine.

>>1874731
Just leave tranny. The game is shit and will be dead in less than a year.

>it's free!!!!!
we both know it's not free. if you don't get donations, the server will eventually be shut down.

apparently you're new to running servers, so here's a tip: learn to tolerate anonymous whiners instead of treating the people who fund your product like objects. people are going to screenshot all of these posts and use it to shit talk you and dissuade donations in perpetuity. and whose fault will that be? not ours, that's for sure.

good luck with your project.

>>1874742
Kaytotes and the team is supporting the project with our own money for an entire year. Any other donations will go towards the future necessities of the project, like server payments, developers, website, advertising, and many other things that help grow the project. I'm sorry you feel this way, but this is the reality of running a server.

>>1874734
I'm so sick of this hate speech. Don't even play our server if you're going to be mean to people and especially the trans community.

>>1874773
Why especially the trans community? You're the one hurting them more by reinforcing their mental illness.

>>1874768
>advertising

I think you've done enough advertising.

How come even the lowest devs are still putting resources into marketing and stupid website while the game is not even playable...

Get a competent online dev instead of "moderating" your useless discord?

>>1874776
>>1874773
Because this person is bashing the trans community and called me the F word. It's pretty obivous why I'm defending the trans community. Their people to!!!

>>1874793
Nobody detected. Opinion rejected. You guys are so misreable.

>>1874796
>to
too
The trans community is their own worst enemy. Imagine promoting and protecting a community based on encouraging people to mutilate themselves permanently; absolutely disgusting and those who "defend" this behavior are vile and you are vile.

>their people to!
Man... western education is at an all time low.

>>1874809
I thought the devs teams were turks or some kind of shitskins

>>1874812
I hope so, because if they can't even spell "they're people, too!" then imagine how fucked their code base is

Finally, some truth.

You should not be a community representative of any kind. You are a liar, a cheat, and an all-around awful person. You are incredibly rude and I would never support a team that employs terrible people like you. I will make sure to tell all my friends to never support your project. Continue calling us names if you want, but at the end of the day you are the problem, not us.

Well it only took this long into /vm/'s lifespan but you fucks have finally figured out that all private servers that go out of their way to advertise on 4chan deserve to be shitposted into the dirt. Now you just gotta figure it out for the rest of them. I won't hold out hope that you'll eventually extend the idea out into having consumer responsibility in general of course.

Those faggots didnt know a goddamn thing about running a server, a bunch of glorified map editors robbed people of their donations and hid under asc wow. So funny. hope asc rapes them to death

Just coming in to this fine mess.
https://www.project-epoch.net/news/update-from-the-epoch-team/
>This was a naive blunder on our part as we didn’t predict a bottleneck to show up after a few hundred extra players where the database begins to choke.
What are they saying here? Their database is so unoptimized it can't handle couple more hundred people connecting? Ain't CPU supposed to be a bottleneck?

Also getting in bed with Ascension? Uhh...

Check out Hour of Twilight if you don't know about it yet. Seems to be more solid than many other pservers.

>>1906813

You think that's bad? Their fucking launcher was broken the last time I checked it, they had a year to fix it. Did they? No, because the devs were too fucking stupid to fix.
