  • GesusJuice Juice Trades 🤙🏻 (@GesusJuice) reported

    @BlizzardCS You would think you'd have these issues ironed out 4 expansions ago. #BlizzardCantDoShitRight

  • shirorx Shiro Amada (@shirorx) reported

    @SnowyyOSRS @ShaepzTV @BlizzardCS Its an unsolvable problem. So there is that. With enough players mmo servers always get crushed. It's inevitable.

  • Punk6111 Punk611 (@Punk6111) reported

    @BlizzardCS 18 years and you still have these issues. Come on...

  • IVIastermind432 Cody (@IVIastermind432) reported

    @RazanaArcclaw @BlizzardCS EXACTLY! Take the game down for EVERYBODY and FIX YOUR GAME instead of just letting your money makers play so you can pretend it was a good launch later after things settle.

  • dylan_tanner21 Dylan Tanner (@dylan_tanner21) reported

    @BlizzardCS so why haven’t we just brought the servers completely down for 20-30 min to figure out this problem instead of trying to deal with it while everyone fights loading screens and lag? Live launches just don’t work….

  • LordDrek Christopher Sergerie (@LordDrek) reported

    @BlizzardCS as usual blizzard only apologizes, give nothing to the consumer while we got to pay to play + pay the expansion every single time and every single time its broken. you're going to lose even more people if you keep treating us like ****

  • Ouija_Pow Pow (@Ouija_Pow) reported

    @BlizzardCS fix your ****. Boat on the Mok'Nathal server is busted.

  • BillWil43206573 MEGA MAGA REPUBLICAN (@BillWil43206573) reported

    @cjmorin027 @BlizzardCS Bull crap been watching them even if they disconnect they get in right away this is BS

  • RPGfan83 Brian and Travis (@RPGfan83) reported

    @BlizzardCS Can you please fix the zeppelin in Kilrogg

  • Originalfen2 Originalfen (@Originalfen2) reported

    @BlizzardCS I find it interesting that people still defending this company everytime this happens lol acting like they a small indie company or something or this is a new problem lol

  • Jtboylan0410 Jim Boylan (@Jtboylan0410) reported

    @BlizzardCS JUST TAKE THE SERVERS DOWN

  • multimuse69 Jaylin Star  (@multimuse69) reported

    @NuryKulk @BlizzardCS well i mean duh the problem is everyone gets on at once and overloads the server in reality normal every day the volume of players are never this high even on peak hours its only because its launch day and everyone and their mother decides to play at once

  • FaeWylde Aurora, Sassenach ***** of the Green Ajah (@FaeWylde) reported

    @BlizzardCS Respectfully... Y'all have really dropped the ball on this one. I don't recall a single expac as bad as this. Is there about ETA on a fix for this chaos?

  • ERob979 Eric R (@ERob979) reported

    @BlizzardCS My UI presets disappeared and I had to completely re-setup the UI from scratch. Is this a known issue? I don’t want to keep doing that.

  • Blizzplanetcom Blizzplanet 💙 #ABetterABK (@Blizzplanetcom) reported

    @BlizzardCS I see only apologies over login outages. We need to know that those of us who did login can actually get the zepellin/boat departing to the Dragon Isles. None is arriving.

  • shamsud60872030 John Carter (@shamsud60872030) reported

    @sahharj @BlizzardCS They'll not help you on this group, i've been scammed from here twice, (hacker_miller222 ) on Instagram was the person that finally help me out, Since then I let him handle all Hacking issues for me.

  • Tacobowl9 Joey M (@Tacobowl9) reported

    @RazanaArcclaw @BlizzardCS dude like are you serious? kind of entitled to say turn it off for everyone bc you cant play rn. Rude actually, who cares dude? go play another game or something, this type of problem happens every expansion launch and servers arent taken down bc some guy cant play launch day

  • Byrix_the_Bard Byrix the Bard (@Byrix_the_Bard) reported

    @BlizzardCS Why don't you just take the servers down and restart? Seriously...

  • DrkAngelTattoos Anthony Mancine (@DrkAngelTattoos) reported

    @Warcraft @BlizzardCS 2 hours of stalled login screen to be waiting an hour at horde docks to be told "Transfer Aborted. Instance Not Found."

  • Fayora32 Sopheii the Dreamer (@Fayora32) reported

    @BlizzardCS every single person in my guild is playing but me fix this game please oh my god

  • ambron13 Chandler (@ambron13) reported

    @RealGremelnz @BlizzardCS There’s also artificial ways to do this and test the servers without actual people logging in lol. I know they know that too, but guess it’s just “fk it they bought it last expansion with problems, they’ll deal with it again”.

  • SeymourFishing DuWayne Seymour (@SeymourFishing) reported

    @BlizzardCS What about the issue of no boat or port?

  • JLCain10 Jennifer Cain (@JLCain10) reported

    @BlizzardCS Fix it correctly and not let anyone in to play until everyone can get in at the same time. Its bs

  • dylan_tanner21 Dylan Tanner (@dylan_tanner21) reported

    @BlizzardCS @paulvseale Why haven’t you fully taken the servers down yet to allow for a fair realm/world first max level instead of ruining this live launch even more then it already is…

  • SvenStallion Sven (@SvenStallion) reported

    @BlizzardCS Not so much of an outage as most of us cannot literally go to the new zone we paid 50+ USD to see.

  • Kayjay416 Kayjay4[Almost Epic Gaming] (@Kayjay416) reported

    @BlizzardCS I have a couple Friends named Ryan and Natty who said you need to fix your $hit!!!

  • nevertheskies hayley (@nevertheskies) reported

    @BlizzardCS This is ridiculous. Now it’s teasing us??? Please fix this.

  • 0xTuesdays tuesdays.eth (@0xTuesdays) reported

    @paulvseale @BlizzardCS @Warcraft You don't want to get to the dragon isles. Chain DC. World Server Down. NPC's don't talk to you.
