Kys thief

This game doesn't deserve praise. It's a giant RNG fest.

Out of my eight active friends, only one has gotten a legendary since the release.

We do world quests every day and mythic+ at least twice a night and everyone's rolling low on gear and selling everything. Unless it's above 860 or a legendary it's not even considered.

It doesn't feel fun, it feels obligatory.

Nostcucks fucking btfo

I remember when nostcucks actually believed people wouldnt return

fucking hilarious

>provide X
>don't provide Y
>shut down 'competition' that's providing Y but not X
>stop being a thief

Wow this language is ugly. It looks like someone just mashed a bunch of keys.

WTF I love World of Warcraft now.

Now that you have shown me this large number, I will now surely proceed to subscribe to this game.

Atleast it's not a food analogy.
But you still failed.

Those count bots too, something WoW is full of.

>digital 'intellectual property'

Give it a month.

Dragon Soul killed WoW.

>tfw no legendary

Now SHOW ME YOUR TRANSMOGS

So why are so many servers still wastelands?

ToC killed wow though

>3 xpacs later
yeah, dragon soul sure killed wow

>people have shit taste and would rather play a skinner box than good games
woah stop the presses

>tfw legendary
git gud user

I think Blizzard gave up on banning bot accounts. I remember using Honorbuddy years ago and some botters had as many as 6 active subscriptions for their bots. With WoW getting close to their twilight years I don't think blizz can afford to start a massive bot ban wave.

ToC was horrible but it recovered with ICC and T11, both one of the best raiding experiences wow has ever offered, Dragon Soul clearly showed the decision blizzard made and how things were going to be from then on, and they were, and they were shit

>some guy I know has fun betting and running economy through it
>has 6 active subs paid for in game gold

>doesn't even play is just obscenely rich

He's been doing it for months. I don't think they give a shit about bots because gold inflation has become so real it barely matters

Indeed my fellow gentleman!

The common man doesn't have as superior taste as us *nods respectfully towards you*

The world quests, ancient mana grind, AP grind, and everything being locked behind RNG or time is already killing it. Devs are so shit-scared of players running out of things to do they locked everything behind something now.

People are complaining about having to do Rated Battlegrounds for fucking profession mats. Who designed this?

MMOs like WoW and Everquest dont cease when they die, they lumber on like hallow zombies senpai

>Hotfix is in
>Brewmaster buffs
>Prot tank nerfs/balances
>Death Knights UNTOUCHED. Now officially the worst class in the game with the worst DPS and worst tanking.

End me.

Not sure what in my post made you think I'm an atheist, but I'm actually a christian so you missed the mark.

Killed WoW from a skilled player view, of course thousands of retards will still play for years, and I still buy every expac just for curiosity, nostalgia and collection. Hell, thousands of people still play Ragnarok online due to nostalgia even if it's a utterly trash game.

>10,1 active subscribers

what the fuck why wont blizzard just shut it down

Why would they shut it down when they can get 10.1 million subs?

>skilled player view

shitpost harder you lazy nostcuck

Give me your socisl security :)

Its not real so its not stealing :^)

10,1 million retards who have nothing else to do in their sad lives, how surprising

But stealing would imply that I took your thing and you no longer have it.

Already stopped playing when the raids and mythic+ got released.

If you have an established group of friends to play this game with you are good to go

If you don't have friends and are going at it alone in hopes of 'making friends' in a game that removed the environments of making friends you are fucked.

what went wrong nostbros???
W-we can still get legacy servers r-right??!

What is the source for this porn?

You still have your social security number I just have a copy :^)

Until we have portable cloning guns. "Is cloning a product you don't purchase stealing?" Debate will have to wait.

Never ever played Nost since replaying vanilla is the culmination of being retarded.

But ragnaros Hc was the last legitimate hard encounter ever released. Tier 11 was the last good tier to be released, and it was fantastic at that, best encounter design ever witnessed in the game bar ulduar.

If you've never been in a world 50th or better guild please don't reply to me since your opinion doesn't and shouldn't matter

There's a greater chance of aliens making contact with humanity today than WoW having over 10m subscribers

I recognize that "I'm twenty!" loli h-story

Except you can't compare wow to social number, if social number changed and you took an expired one then it would be same.

But WoW hasn't expired. :^)

How do you git gud at rng?

>using an expired social
say hello to the IRS and fed prison for me, but thats different then stealing right?

>10.1 million subscribed
warcraftrealms.com/census.php
>only 3 million playing

WOW IN 2016 LUL

You get a legendary.

subs mean nothing since they can be bought with gold now. divide it by 3 to get real amount

Someone still has to pay money to get the token in the first place.

DKs always deserved to be the worst though.

>start at lvl 55 for some reason
>takes literal no skill to shit on ppl
>retarded strong for their entire lives until now
>MUH NERFS

No it's not that your class sucks now; it's just finally not broken. Welcome to balancing.

>not a single source

Sure it's back up to 10million goy, you should sub as well !

...

Is anything real?

You know a sub bought with gold brings them more money than a regular sub, right?

A WoW token costs 20 dollar.

How is legion anyways? Is it worth coming back to as an old wotlk player?

Lying in an interview is not against the law. They probably have less than 3 million subs now.
They don't dare to say it on their shareholder meetings because they can be held accountable for that.

Are they like RS bonds in that they do not exist in the game until someone has spent real $ for it and put it up for auction or selling it?

Yes, it literally fixed everyting

Don't listen to these f*cking Nostfags. There is literally nothing wrong - neither with Legion, nor with black breeding.

Yes, that's how all pay with in-game currency systems work.

They ALWAYS make more money for the developer.

A month of bonds costs 2-3 dollar more than a regular month of membership, a month of EVE PLEX costs 5 bucks more than a regular sub and a month of WoW gametime also costs 5 bucks more.

DELETE THIS

I came from wotlk and the game just doesn't feel so fun. It was al ways grindy but now it feels like pure grind with the freemium "WAIT 8 HOURS AND COME BACK FOR UR REWARD LEL" shit.

Bought one month, got to 110, canceled sub.

Potential revenue is theft. If they could make ~$10/mon from some guy and a PS took it, thats $10=< not seen.
I do want vanilla, BC and even Wrath servers, but 3rd parties are theives in that sense.

Yeah totally, if you want to be time gated because there's no content and they need you to stay subbed

>"WAIT 8 HOURS AND COME BACK FOR UR REWARD LEL"

This, it's like some kind of facebook game

HOW IN THE FUCK

NOSTKEKS ON SUICIDE WATCH

>Blizzdrones constantly talk about how tiny the private server community is
>Constantly lash out at them with impotent rage

If they're so insignificant why bother?

This is not the case anymore user

nostcucks btfo

or 35k gold you retard

Reminder that copying is not stealing. Jesus copied fish and bread, that was not stealing, it was copying. If you claim that "piracy is stealing" you're basically calling Our Lord Jesus Christ a thief, you fucking pagan shits.

Thats still kinda not proof, its just some random dev saying it not blizzard themself.

You have special needs

Blizzard is not a person user, clearly you must know this

Wow you're incredibly stupid.

I agree, but you cannot prove whether somebody would or would not pay subscription if Nostalrius wasn't available.
On top of that I was advocating the fact that Nostalrius was clearly providing different service than Blizzard (if you compare current version to vanilla)

Because they refuse to merge servers.

I can't imagine how assmad demon hunters make you because they are unimaginably broken right now. Both tank and DPS.

The point is it's not an official confirmation, they stopped doing those because of how embarassing it was.

Fuck Blizzdrones

>polish magazine

No shit but you'd think they would be boasting that the game has 10.1 million active subs right now and use it as a selling point for legion to get in more people but their not, they staying quiet about sub numbers.

Rate my transmog, Cred Forums.

But they are boasting, they literally have said they have 10.1 million subs.

WHEN WILL THIS SHIT DIE ALREADY

HAHAHAHAHA

If just human, it's great.

If worgen, get out.

I don't think you understand the game.

vee btfo

Imagine having a folder dedicated to shitting on a fandom for an old game.

Imagine what kind of person has one of those.

In Poland. Wow, its fucking nothing. What next? They will say in some Serbia magazine that they have 20 Millions active users in HoTS and you will believe?

...

Yeah it's not like they're worth billions of dollars and spend hundreds of millions on advertising.

Yep I'm sure they utilize word of mouth so much.

Imagine signing petitions and spamming 24/7 about an old game

Imagine a fandom coming into another fandoms threads discussing the retail version of it and shitposting all day just because they're salty about their own game being shut down for good legal reasons

A Blizzdrone made this thread. Where's the spam you're talking about?

...

>Yep I'm sure they utilize word of mouth so much.
Of course they do, that's why they stopped the sub numbers in the first place. They weren't advertising them, it just came up naturally in stockholders meetings. But when those numbers started looking bad (via word of mouth!) they stopped mentioning them until now, when they're back to looking good.

>B-b-b-blizzdrones!

i wouldnt say that its a nerf to prot wars. the extra rage from shield slam is HUGE for us. lil less from ignore pain is fine.

It's not like you faggots actually talk about the game anyway, every thread is just mog circlejerks.

where are the worst blizz drones, mmo-champion or us. battlenet forums?

Great comeback.

My god you're so fucking delusional it is comical.

I know right, just call someone "x-drone" and you got yourself a great argument or comeback

>Look we're totally talking about this MMO by posting pictures of our dress up dollies!

"Blizzdone" wasn't the focal point of my post but you're clearly too stupid to have any kind of reading comprehension.

>being this mad for no reason

they're not??

even in the several low pop realms I play on, there's at least 100 people in Legion content at any one time

BLIZZARD IS GOD

I CAN'T FUCKING HANDLE IT ANYMORE PLEASE DELETE THIS THREAD

Why are Blizzshits so terrible at arguing? It's like I'm talking to a load of 15 year olds.

B-b-but even Jontron was playing the game illegaly and telling people to sign the petition, why does Blizzard need to have success?!?!!

DELET THIS

YEAH BUT WHAT ABOUT LEGACY? IT'S NOT FUCKING FAIR!

kek

...

How big's your folder Pajeet?

IT'S NOT FAIR BROS

How could anyone with self respect be proud to raid ancient content?

Funny how they only confirm numbers when they think they're doing well. Never mind the silence when their subscriptions post-WoD launch were plummeting.

...

how is legion end game?

>retarded strong for their entire lives until now
Between when they were nerfed after being broken at the start of wrath DKs have only ever been above average once and that was in highmaul, so half a tier out of what 14?

Blizzard saves PC gaming once more

In their defense Sunwell was supposed to be tier 10, guilds were clearing T5 and 6 so fast that there would have been a year left and BT/Hyjal would have been all that's it, and that's with SSC/TK actually being in the game at launch, just not active.

This is why 10 looked like they pulled it from their ass very fast, because they did.

Now imagine Sunwell as it was supposed to be,

In Northrend for a year, then you head to that isle, would of been fun.

Mfw the bottom is literally me....

user...

Horrible. World quests have the potential to raise your item level gradually, but once you hit 545-550, all you see are quests that reward 60 gold.

average nostcuck

...

vs average retailer

GET SHIT ON YOU POOPSOCKING MANCHILDREN! ALL HAIL BLIZZARD!

isn't that the guy regularly playing Legion with the biggest stream?

seems like your average retail faggot to me

Does YouTube turn annoying people into homosexuals, or are there very wealthy people willing to donate large sums of money to idiots that dye their hair like faggots?

Can you freeze your game time? I want to buy multiple tokens and use them but I don't want them to go to waste if I decide to quit for a month or two.

>Blizzcucks

Get over 100 roses per hour at minimum

>each still sells for 140g per

I'm saying it doesn't count because its not coming officially from blizzard, just a lead design who said it to some random ass polish magazine. It's not on their official twitter, not on their forums etc and by your logic metzans lore matters :^)

Cool. Prove it.

...

Druid or Priest?

Yeah you can keep them in inventory and activate them without sub

i mean im kinda sad i lost my 60 char forever but the server was pretty unplayable at that point because of chinks

It's no surprise that those who still play retail often are the same people who pre-ordered NMS

dat exaggeration, user. what are you a woman?

It's not misleading shareholders if you let them know that you'll be publicly inflating subscriber numbers. That's tactical misleading advertising.

Aint shit in the books about lying in an interview.

Only person crying is you vanilla toddler lmao. But hey enjoy your "non buggy" no content experience :^)

>fraud is stealing
It's not theft. It's something else, retard

There's plenty of salty nostfags in every WoW thread, welcome, here's your complimentary rosetinted nostalgiagoggles and guide to bitch about retail, blizzard and it's players

You're not fooling anyone drone, people complained before nost even existed because Blizzard sucks dick.

I play retail and private servers and I have yet to play one private server that wasn't a shitty bugged mess

>they doent have any plans to make wow f2p

Uh are you forgetting that WoD also had a shit ton of subs at the start of it and then it tanked drastically? Give it a few months and then gloat if they maintain it.

My only guess is that Nostalrius Begins players are not nostalgia players. Nobody I know wants to go back to the days of Vanilla WoW, we just want the old community to return and outnumber the assholes that can be found everywhere.

Of course not. Activision is one of the worst companies in the world. You honestly think they would maintain servers based solely off on in-game store purchases?

>1 (One) MINUTE OF WANKING OVER THEIR PRO "ACHIEVEMENTS" THAT HAVE BEEN DONE IN 2004 BY
>Modern addons all over the place
>Terrible music instead of the original sound

You can't make this shit up. This is the kind of people that play private servers.
The kind that's never done anything noteworthy on retail but instead tries to reach their fifteen minutes of fame on a private server.

>all realms empty
>"w-we have over 10 mill subs guys"

>Nobody I know wants to go back to the days of Vanilla WoW

Probably because everyone you know was born after 1996

i wonder what his butthole smells like

Legemdaries should be hard to get. Epic has lost its meaning already. No need to take away that form of rarity too and turn the game into diablo 3.

Here we have the upset private server cuck whose server cannot reach 5k

>all realms empty
you arent playing are you

Bullshit. Not buying it.

>1 (One) MINUTE OF WANKING OVER THEIR PRO "ACHIEVEMENTS" THAT HAVE BEEN DONE IN 2004 BY
by who? huh? lmao
>Modern addons all over the place
they're vanilla addons tho, shows how much you know kiddo
>Terrible music instead of the original sound
that's beside the point you legitimate sperglord

>10 of 300 realms are high
>rest is low or "new"
>you arent playing are you

remember the time when people asked for objective sources when companies presented them obviously wrong numbers?

That would work if everyone had an equal chance at getting them, but the system is broken, and those with a legendary still have a huge chance at winning more.

my priv has easily 60k online every single day, how does it feel to be a blizzard cuck?

>60k

Nice meme lordcuck!
Feed me your salt nostcuck

keep living in denial you cuck

Whenever a Blizzard developer gives an interview, you can never trust what they have to say.

Blizzard was bragging about the launch subscriptions in WoD, even when server population was obviously plummeting.

They released player numbers based on worldwide players, even when China has a very different subscription model than us.

>all servers are full
hahahaha

...

The Blizzcon is one month. Are they planingto announce something?

lelel, this is online from 1 minute ago, its not even a peek

Diablo 4 is an MMO.

I hope Blizzard shut it down

Overwatch dlc and Universe Of Starcraft

blizzard cant do shit about this server, you are a fucking cuck, deal with it

And how many of those are multiboxer and level 1 spammers lol

yeah Nos said the same

So where can I see the official number report ?

lol, and how many of blizz subs are bots? ill tell you, like 90% of subs are fucking bots

Server?

Half of those addons have been made to work with classic, maybe YOU should get your facts straight.
Feel free to link more dumb "epic raiding" videos, that will surely convince people that the players there aren't just a bunch of posers that think they're hot shit for farming content done a decade ago. Content, I might add, that wasn't easily vivisectioned and farmed by everyone.

China is now on the same monthly sub model just like everyone else.

BLIZZDRONES BTFO

>sh-shut it d-down!
kek, stay mad

circle

its a rus serv, blizz literally cant do shit

nostkeks on suicide watch

Less than how many bots are there on retail

>Half of those addons have been made to work with classic, maybe YOU should get your facts straight.
100% of those addons existed in vanilla
>bunch of posers that think they're hot shit for farming content done a decade ago.
Never seen someone be so mad at other people for replaying old games, wew

Retail has few bots since blizz started cracking down.

There are a fuck ton of Chinese herb farmers making $2 an hour though

>rus server
You played yourself, cyкa блят тoвapиш

>huehue im so retarded

>in 10 million only about 1 mil is playing
lol

Bullshit, unless they did another banwave, which they didn't after they unbanned all the bots everything went back to "normal" with BGs made out of 13 bots out of 15 players and most raiders botting their alts/rotation.

how do I farm herbs for 2$ an hour? id be bette off selling the gold I make from herbing, its like 200gold for one herb on my server and 500 for starlight roses

sorry nigga, the fact i play on your server doesnt make you russians worth the air on this planet

>lili will never get a model update

Who's ready for the F2P reveal at Blizzcon?

>10 million subs
>only 9 high pop servers

>create first person shooter Warcraft
>you can play as various classes, using spells like fireball and moonfire
>when in court room tell them you are providing different service and remind them they can't prove lost profit

...

That's my point. You're kinda slow, aren't you?

What server is this? Can't fucking stand the ilvl chase of neo-WoW

Nigger this isn't WoD, there arent any bots in BG's.

There aren't any people in BG's either because BGs are fucking awful right now. No reward and DH's ruined any flag carrying maps.

it doesnt change the fact they have 3 time more online than what nost had, this is literally the biggest private server on the earth right now

Slavshit reporting in

What is more fun to play? Balance Druid or any Warlock spec? Can't think of want I want to play.

RIP PROT WARRIORS HAHAHAHAH ENJOY YOUR RAGE BUFFS!

You can buy a token even if you run out of gametime.
If you have enough gold, it will give you the option to buy one on the character select screen.

Aw it's ok little nostcuck

Vanilla wow in a nutshell

that picture is complete autism

>recovered with ICC
kill yourself wrathbabby
ICC was worse than Naxxramas and introduced many of the casualization features that butchered the game

Yea I'm one of them I still want vanilla servers fag

Is WOW the most profitable game of all time?

Although some of these people are Asians/3rd worlders who pay jack shit

>Want to play
>Sub ran out last week
>Negative 4 dollars in the bank
>Amazon keeps delaying the transfer of my money

Amazon fucking sucks, it takes fucking 3-5 weeks to get money from when you sell shit on there.

I bought a copy for my friend and I. He didn't even hit max level. I hit max level and quit after 1 week. I'll never buy another wow, shit is boring.

NO you're NOT allowed to like two things at once!!!

idk what all of you want with old addons or vanilla wow. I've played all of them, I've tried all private servers, it just never felt right.

I'd say the people that vehemently and only play on pservers are either people that can't afford wow+monthly sub, or complete cheapskates that don't want to spend that money, even though they get a lot of value from it. Nothing beats 12€ a month for over 20h a month playtime, even if you're a casual you should have a lot of fun in that month. No other medium or entertainment offers this. Stop cheating yourself, private servers or "pristine" shit won't solve you not having fun.

>tfw I didn't fall for the Legion meme

They should let people mail you gold

>I'll never buy another wow
nah, you bought it 7 times, what make you think you wont do it again?

>I didn't like it so no one else can

I didn't buy anything after Lich King. I'm not a blizzdrone.

>why did I not?

Because everyone was playing mobashits for 3 years straight.
