  • darthmurdock Johan Akronius (@darthmurdock) reported

    @Warcraft @WarcraftDevs is it correct that Stay Classy achievement is broken? I am in a small guild, and we've started to work hard on this, but now everything is greyed out

  • KingOtis764 J Roc (@KingOtis764) reported

    @BlizzardCS Hey Blizzard ... Every time I try to launch Warcraft Retail all my realms are saying incompatible my game is up to date with patches ? Any suggestions for a fix ? Thanks

  • dabbiest kaotic (@dabbiest) reported

    @brianrh32900276 @Warcraft ff14 has problems at launches too wtf you talkin about clown

  • Mememan420 da ***** (@Mememan420) reported

    @Warcraft can you idiots fix area 52, this **** is unreal

  • ExcelionSkyclaw Excelion (@ExcelionSkyclaw) reported

    @tonygov @ArvoskW15 @Warcraft Maybe the reality is that people who have issues are to insignificant % for them to ever bother increasing server capacity just for a few launch days. Nothing to learn there... financial decisions

  • sheep_dog_life The Lamb (and dog) (@sheep_dog_life) reported

    @LHP64D @Blizzard_ANZ @Warcraft I agree with all the positive points you mentioned! My only issue so far is with dragonriding, it feels rather inaccessible to me because I don't have the reaction speed or feeling of "the right angle to just keep going". I mostly get stuck on things or in mid air.

  • jurtje Jur. (@jurtje) reported

    @luke_blodwell @MrGMYT @Warcraft Had zero issues yesterday, please speak for yourself.

  • Rudenucklehead Rudenucklehead (@Rudenucklehead) reported

    @Warcraft I see the dragon isle boat is STILL a problem

  • tonygov Tony Gouverneur (@tonygov) reported

    @conwayscience @Warcraft How is it that after all these years and expansions, they havent figured out how to prevent these same issues from happening everytime.

  • FAuruce Failz Auruce (@FAuruce) reported

    @Warcraft FIX AREA 52 SERVER PLEASE

  • JakeAUS_ JakeAUS 🇦🇺 (@JakeAUS_) reported

    @luke_blodwell @MrGMYT @Warcraft Lol no it wasn't, after a small hiccup with the boat not arriving at launch time, I was on my way to the Dragon Isles about 5 minutes later and haven't had an issue since. Some people have had issues for sure, and that sucks, but the launch has been great for most.

  • MooserushGaming MooserushGaming (@MooserushGaming) reported

    @WarcraftDevs I mean holy crap are the server issues bad. Not sure to whom I should address this, but damn.

  • Vibezzical Isaac Fernandez (@Vibezzical) reported

    Anyone has that issue in wow that at some point some abilities on Ur action bars don't work anymore except if u click on it? Requires me to reload for them to work again but start bugging again after a short while. Actually very tilting, hope someone knows a fix 🙏 @Warcraft

  • appletesterrus Yaroslav Gavrilov  (@appletesterrus) reported

    World of Warcraft: Dragonflight broke right at the start. Not a single WoW addon ran smoothly — players had technical errors.

  • RyanLaley Ryan Laley (@RyanLaley) reported

    @BigzeeCG @Warcraft tried it sadly no result. so far ive tried every suggestion on google with no change. It will install other games no problem, just not this one.

  • BloodyZoul Nalzir (@BloodyZoul) reported

    @Warcraft But never time to fix you're bad games

  • belanarri B (@belanarri) reported

    @Warcraft This is a VERY poor time to post anything unrelated to the massive server issues. It's aggravating and almost taunting to see this company say anything unproductive at a time like now.

  • Mememan420 da ***** (@Mememan420) reported

    @Warcraft fix area 52 you dogs

  • tonygov Tony Gouverneur (@tonygov) reported

    @ArvoskW15 @Warcraft Its amazing they never learn from previous expansion releases, as this happens every time. They never seem to bother addressing these issues before release date.

  • brianrh32900276 Rhodesartwork (@brianrh32900276) reported

    @Warcraft oh look...a player waiting on the load in screen because a 20 year old gaming company just cant seem to get it done. funny square enix has no problems at all...hmmm, probably why they have 24 million subs to your what again? 1.5 million?...lmao

  • AgainAnotherOne Anonymous (@AgainAnotherOne) reported

    @Alexand14280897 @Warcraft Most AAA games have SOME kind of big issue in the first couple days with all these players

  • aslbl2000 Big Lang (@aslbl2000) reported

    @Warcraft It's flying as good as I fly my dragon right now. Crash and burn.

  • joshlin33820574 josh lindsey (@joshlin33820574) reported

    @Warcraft Can you fix the boats. This is getting ridiculous

  • drk_jos Jos DRk (@drk_jos) reported

    @Warcraft One would expect with any new expansion to be able to play but that doesn't happen when the server kicks you out again and again, they can fix this, despair for all the money they earn they should be prepared to deal with so much traffic

  • Chizwick Charlie Plays W🐉W (@Chizwick) reported

    @LHP64D @Blizzard_ANZ @Warcraft I didn't have a ton of problems. Had to take a second zeppelin to the Isles because the first kicked us all off after the loading screen gave up, but otherwise no lag, only 2 disconnects from a dragon race glitch. Loved the story, can't wait to play more tomorrow!

  • Devcom888 Devcom (@Devcom888) reported

    @WarcraftDevs Changing specs just became more difficult. I have to reput my keybinds on my action bar every time I switch specs. Whether I go from spec 1 to 2 or 2 to 1 or 2 to 3. Every time I have to put abilities back on my bars. Is there a fix for this.

    @luke_blodwell @MrGMYT @Warcraft I also had almost zero issues. One disconnect from dragonriding timetravel ability, no other problem.
