  • CuppCakeGaming Chris Cupp (CuppCake) (@CuppCakeGaming) reported

    @Warcraft @WarcraftDevs Holy wow. I have been on Stage 6 of this scenario for 10 minutes. Flayedwing died once. Tried again... no slimes registering to hit because of the LAG. How do you keep ******* up launches this bad? No wonder the content creators started trying other games.

  • Orph_Gaming OrphGaming - Cryptids League (@Orph_Gaming) reported

    @WarcraftDevs Awesome. After I already looted it, as I'm sure thousands of others did as soon as the patch went live. Good fix...

  • TheUckShuck UckShuck 2.0 (@TheUckShuck) reported

    @BenGrandblade Hey @Warcraft @WarcraftDevs y’all need to fix this

  • SteveBring Steve Lee (@SteveBring) reported

    @apinksquash @KiaOraBrough @WarcraftDevs How did they fix the problem back then? Reset the loot generation or correct the individual item reward?

  • superpowerthing Super (@superpowerthing) reported

    @WarcraftDevs Can you monkeys acknowledge the in game lag already. Just shut down the servers. You guys suck at doing your job.

  • Balasarius John Jeffrey (@Balasarius) reported

    @WarcraftDevs You guys realize we worship the Vault right? Anduin? The Jailer? Sylvanus? None of these people matter. The only thing that matters is the ONLY SOURCE OF GEAR UPGRADES IN THE GAME. And that's the ALMIGHTY VAULT. It's the FIRST PLACE everyone goes first as soon as they login.

  • mathparizotto Matheus Parizotto (@mathparizotto) reported

    @WarcraftDevs In-game lag is disgusting.. i can't even finish the scenario... seriously guys, this is embarrasing

  • alardiians Revo Alardiians (@alardiians) reported

    @DenvenJWZ @Warcraft You're not missing out on anything with this crazy lag fest

  • timhelios9 𐅡 Matthew Wayne Oliver 𐅡 (@timhelios9) reported

    @WarcraftDevs you got a bigger problem than that sir! the new bfa quest is experiencing the same bugs as before!! it's a world first fix hack!!! somebody hire some real security for this "team.." pfft!

  • LookoutforJoey DudeJoeyAwesome (@LookoutforJoey) reported

    @WarcraftDevs Lag.... that is all.

  • DWagner85 NakedShortsYeah (@DWagner85) reported

    @Warcraft @WarcraftDevs So you going to fix these lag issues in Ardenweald anytime soon?

  • CuppCakeGaming Chris Cupp (CuppCake) (@CuppCakeGaming) reported

    @WarcraftDevs I mean, at least I was able to log on. But, please explain HOW a solo scenario has 30+ seconds of lag. My eyebeam is coming off CD as the system registers it keyed. Great job stress testing.

  • Wintermute_2099 Wintermute (@Wintermute_2099) reported

    @Warcraft @Blizzard_Ent you should feel ashamed to offer such a crap game, charging this monthly fee. SHAMEFUL. How to play with this lag in Ardenwald?

  • SkyGradient1 Retro Jailer (@SkyGradient1) reported

    So in other words, Blizzard really needs to be pumping a 9.1 every 3 to 4 months if they want to keep engagement up. People will probably forgive crap systems, bugs, and stability issues if they just make the content rain. #Warcraft #Shadowlands

  • Cocotrini BlueSparrow (@Cocotrini) reported

    @Warcraft Lag big time. I give up til tomorrow

  • OverDev1 OverDev (@OverDev1) reported

    @mrlachyg @Jerb2810 @WarcraftDevs I know bugs are sometimes hard to fix but come on the devs are professionals with 15+ years of coding and experience in the industry in general.

  • mooklepticon PaJamas (@mooklepticon) reported

    Blech. Lag was too much. I'll try new patch content tomorrow. #Warcraft

  • malucellichris1 Fallout43DR (@malucellichris1) reported

    @WarcraftDevs I understand if it’s broken it needs to be fixed but what about the players who do not use social media :( and also think maybe you should give players something in the meantime for the inconvenience. And also just shut it down till it’s fixed.

  • malucellichris1 Fallout43DR (@malucellichris1) reported

    @Chaotichamster @WarcraftDevs @BlizzardCS What that’s crazy they punished you because they have a broken game???? That’s not cool at all blizzard…

  • failsafe0x1 Panda0x01 (@failsafe0x1) reported

    @Warcraft Maybe fix your servers.

  • chimerarosetv Rose is a Rose (@chimerarosetv) reported

    @Warcraft The lost souls quest did not reward renown. Between that, the massive instance lag, im out....

  • anonymouspaul07 Anonymous Paul (@anonymouspaul07) reported

    @RickLehman12 That amazingly hasn’t happened to me. I did once have to ask a doctor to stop playing World of Warcraft so I could fix his ability to take x-rays

  • FightLikeGast0n FightsLikeGaston (@FightLikeGast0n) reported

    First time I've ever Alt F4'd World of Warcraft because of lag. Literally unplayable. I know everyone's getting on right now and playing, but I'm not going to waste my time right now.

  • Captiva_88 Don Warren (@Captiva_88) reported

    @Warcraft And now with even more lag!

  • kevtobrien Noodles (@kevtobrien) reported

    Oh god...the 9.1 killed me once i zone into new place. and This freaken LAG....come on blizz. >:) @blizzard @Warcraft @bonsai1014

  • Jchristiankehoe Chrisjohn key who? (@Jchristiankehoe) reported

    @WarcraftDevs I played your broken content for a month in December. Yay classic, a game that doesn’t suck.

  • grindhousefan Sean (@grindhousefan) reported

    @WarcrafD I’m getting a Lua error when I try to transmog individual shoulders. This is tested with no mods enabled too and I get the same error. #Warcraft

  • mrlachyg MrLachyG (@mrlachyg) reported

    @OverDev1 @Jerb2810 @WarcraftDevs even the most professional person can't work miracles. especially considering 90% of the bug reports were probably "ugh this isn't working, fix it plz Blizz ur game sucks"

  • mrlachyg MrLachyG (@mrlachyg) reported

    @Jerb2810 @WarcraftDevs that doesn't mean it can be fixed. I bet you a solid chunk of those bug reports were next to useless, so the team couldn't replicate the issue to fix it.

  • StratoSophie Sunphie (@StratoSophie) reported

    @Warcraft I pay this game for lag LAG LAAAAAAAG
