  • realKitsuneKami Who Cares (@realKitsuneKami) reported

    @TheSpectreRep @Warcraft this has been by far the smoothest MMO expansion launch I've ever experienced, with minimal lag and zero log-in queues, only issue I had is it took an extra 5 minutes for the boat to show up, i think your internet might just be dogshit lmao 🤪🤭

  • Alistrine Ali (@Alistrine) reported

    @GossipCurlG @Warcraft This doesn't help my mommy issues. 😢

  • thebl4ckd0g Chris aka Blackdog (@thebl4ckd0g) reported

    yay. another 1 hour maintenance today for @Warcraft. Hopefully it's to fix dragon riding crashing you to login screen.

  • netherlandjm Zeigeist(Jordan) (@netherlandjm) reported

    @WarcraftDevs any update on server issues? Just need to know if I should try to play tonight or avoid until it is fixed. Can’t get on until later evening so I’m not able to level with all the loot bugs and lag

  • milkynecro Milkynecro (@milkynecro) reported

    @nvidiacc Despite making a new driver for World of Warcraft: Dragonflight -- issues persist, talking about flickering shadows/textures. (3070) This has been happening since the beginning of the previous expansion.

  • ej149m ej149m (@ej149m) reported

    @Warcraft *World Server Down* :)

  • Kunaives Kunaives ⚔️ (@Kunaives) reported

    @Warcraft 3 hours boat wait and world server down error you mean

  • thebl4ckd0g Chris aka Blackdog (@thebl4ckd0g) reported

    Welp. Disconnect 1 of the day while dragonriding in @Warcraft. Yay?

  • BigLousTweets Big Lou (@BigLousTweets) reported

    @thomasoconner11 @Warcraft I am not a streamer and I had no issues ... so how bout we stop with that nonsense.

  • haddley77 Haddley (@haddley77) reported

    In case anyone needs to know or if there are still boat issues in Stormwind, you can go to Durotar and get on the ship outside of Orgrimmar, it’s not hostile. You land just across a small bit of water from where you’re supposed to be. #Warcraft

  • ShammyHaygar Xcursi0n (@ShammyHaygar) reported

    @WatcherDev @WarcraftDevs can we discuss the issues and flaws with dragon riding and having a flying mount crash land due to being tired ? This should not be a thing a mount shouldn’t have all the downsides of the artifact weapons in legion. I should be able to use my own mount

  • Rabsharky Guild Dad Sharky 🦈 (@Rabsharky) reported

    @RAD1CALHIGHWAY @WarcraftDevs @Warcraft Folks, please...the RP community is begging you to please help us out and fix this. Please and Thank You.

  • toliver Toliver (@toliver) reported

    It's a rainy day, my car is semi-broken and the SSD thunderbolt drive fixed World of Warcraft so it runs faster than it did on the computer itself. Hm...what will I be doing today?

  • invilol invi (@invilol) reported

    u cant use bmah with lvl 70 characters please fix @WarcraftDevs

  • BenHolb Belon Mush Ⓜ️ (Vérlfléd) (Official) (Real) (sigma) (@BenHolb) reported

    I keep putting my breakfast down just because I want to keep dragon riding... it's a problem. #Dragonflight #Warcraft

  • Pharmzx Pharmztko (@Pharmzx) reported

    @luke_blodwell @MrGMYT @Warcraft Imagine judging the whole expac because you had to wait 2 hours to log in. I started at 10pm Monday and have had zero issues, it’s been awesome

  • iSteeve steve pribut (@iSteeve) reported

    @elonmusk Now we need you to fix latency on the new World of Warcraft release. #Wow

  • MarineDoga456 NoOne (@MarineDoga456) reported

    I honestly don't like how I am getting 0 Gear from heroic dungeons or Mythic dungeons I do like Uldaman or Azure Vault when others get more loot than I do @WarcraftDevs You probably need to fix this or do a hotfix on it.

  • UpsettiAstrid Astrid (@UpsettiAstrid) reported

    I love that I've now hit four 3+ month old bugs that have been reported but have no work around fix or solution all of which are severely game breaking but since Blizzard has no CS its not reportable. This was a $100 AAA game btw. #WorldOfWarcraft #Dragonflight #readyforrelease

  • ChristmasKingg Christmas Kingg (@ChristmasKingg) reported

    @MrGMYT @Warcraft I had zero issues on launch night on Zuljin aside from some npc lag when getting and turning in quests. Last night world server died, but honestly hasn't felt to bad for me.

  • ImAtRexBro xMRxRAY, Just some bearded guy (@ImAtRexBro) reported

    @YajinYuda @thomasoconner11 @Warcraft I was gonna say I was watching Towelliee and they were having quite the time trying to get in. To where on my server I had zero issues

  • GoblinaJones Goblina the Shrink-Ray Inventor (@GoblinaJones) reported

    @bicyclecards @Blizzard_Ent @Warcraft There's an unexpected server error in the link

  • MichelleGBarker Michelle G. Barker (@MichelleGBarker) reported

    @LHP64D @Warcraft Same here! Sometimes people don't necessarily want us to fix a problem. They just want us to listen.

  • Nillwas Nillwas Malm (@Nillwas) reported

    @Warcraft Maybe time to check over wtf is going on in classic. As there no layers and everything is lagging, it feels like we have 5k ms

  • CptKlumsy CptKlumsy (@CptKlumsy) reported

    @Warcraft Oh idk, maybe because every time I log in I get a “World Server Down” error. That or get kicked off the boat trying to get to stormwind, infinite loading screens. I wonder why I haven’t hit 70 yet

  • Midnafan2012 PinkDrink Gaming (Veilstrider Amyuwu) (@Midnafan2012) reported

    @Kokichi_of_Lies @Itzi_Proudmoore @Warcraft Stormrage has been awful. 3 hours on launch day stuck in SW. By the time I get home from work the lag is bad or the world server is down.

  • RamavataramaArt Ramavatarama *COMMISSION STATUS: Closed* (@RamavataramaArt) reported

    @Stray14 @Warcraft I mean it makes sense, being in stasis is like a long sleep, so it's the opposite problem for them-

  • jasoncook387 Jason Cook (@jasoncook387) reported

    @Warcraft the amount of lag spikes I'm getting from world latency is beyond insane. It's almost laughable

  • ZyntosAran ZyntosAran (@ZyntosAran) reported

    @WarcraftDevs When can we expect a fix for the "Siege on dragonbane" event that never starts?

  • CringeAf6 CringeJoy (@CringeAf6) reported

    @luke_blodwell @MrGMYT @Warcraft Maybe I’m not qualified to speak because I was questing 10 minutes after launch and never experienced a single issue outside of getting DC’d once. But this seems harsh
