World of Warcraft Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • gamixy_ Adam (@gamixy_) reported

    @PatrickP876 @waylorTV @WarcraftDevs Mega servers come about because player mentality has changed, people play the game as min max as possible and they will always flock to the busiest servers because it’s where the best players are, but cross server instance groups offer a possible solution to the problem by

  • Mywifesok1 Mywifesok (@Mywifesok1) reported

    @Decepper @WarcraftDevs @BrianBirming Honestly, this seems like a skill issue.

  • YAndsexy Young Andsexy (@YAndsexy) reported

    @Warcraft @Blizzard_Ent Start by solve the monstruous QUEUE🤨🤨🤨 , 500 min for enter in a server when you pay for a service that inacceptable!!!!!!🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • TylerNi69907657 Miltonic (@TylerNi69907657) reported

    @Warcraft Please do something, almost anything at the point, to fix the queue times on servers like benediction. No, I'm not taking a free transfer off after you made me spend 100 bucks getting my characters on there from a dead server you refused to offer free transfers from.

  • Milobinder1 Emilio Binder (@Milobinder1) reported

    @Warcraft I would if I could but Gehennas has more rollbacks and lag than anything i've ever experienced. Or well, classic launch might have been the same :) FIX IT?

  • dpslibz dpslibz (@dpslibz) reported

    @xrossv2 @Warcraft What’s this about is it a glitch by Blizzard. Good job I suck at pvp although AV is cool

  • dwanex09 Dwanex (@dwanex09) reported

    @sx6_magnusz @WarcraftDevs @BrianBirming The players want megaservers so ofc there will be huge queues. Could Blizz handle this better? Yes! Is it still a playermade problem because they consider servers with ~3-5k ppl dead? Also yes!

  • frostfeartr Can Kızanoğlu (@frostfeartr) reported

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN No because your servers are not working properly. @BrianBirming @Warcraft was it so hard to provide stable gameplay?

  • anger_walther Walther Anger (@anger_walther) reported

    @IGN @Warcraft @Blizzard_Ent I remember this one time… when journalists actually reported on problems in the world (of warcraft) and not just following a billion dollar mega-corporations flute.

  • RinTheMage Rin the Mage (@RinTheMage) reported

    @waylorTV @WarcraftDevs Dude hell no. Don't ruin the server experience by changing it because of a temporary problem.

  • Wndrbrh Wonder 🏹🏳️‍⚧️🎮 (@Wndrbrh) reported

    @_Woover_ @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs It did. You had to hit 60 to finish the last few quests in Revendreth. 1-2 weeks before launch they buffed EXP by a bunch and it solved the issue.

  • richtea78 richtea78 (@richtea78) reported

    @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs Oh no. Its almost like there's a phase especially to detect problems like this?

  • basilmohammed96 B💕 (@basilmohammed96) reported

    @Warcraft You mean re-exploring lag? All over again????

  • WaveMouth Wave (@WaveMouth) reported

    @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs Didn't they have this same issue in the Shadowlands beta? People were hitting 59 after every zone was completed and they had to do a massive retune. The thing that bothers me about this issue is that it's just math. Blizzard should know the exact number of XP it takes to hit 70.

  • 01Zayon zayon 01 (@01Zayon) reported

    @sx6_magnusz @WarcraftDevs @BrianBirming Worst part is that there is a huge amount of people who actually tollerate/defende/make excuses for this situation.. WE PAY FOR A SERVICE WICH IS NOT AVAILABLE, WHAT THE ACTUAL ****. whoever toight to add only 1 pvp fresh-server in EU is a fking degenerate

  • _Woover_ Woover (@_Woover_) reported

    @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs If I remember correctly Shadowlands had a similar problem during testing but it thankfully got fixed for launch, so I'd imagine they'll get this fixed as well at some point 🤞

  • ComfiCharlie Charlie (@ComfiCharlie) reported

    @Warcraft This won’t fix wow it will just give us something to do for 3months then go back to what ever ******** you do

  • menemies_ Omar (@menemies_) reported

    @WarcraftDevs umm hello? Wrath queue times? Please fix???????

  • JoveGaming Jove (@JoveGaming) reported

    @ZeroBringsLight @nnoggie @WarcraftDevs This problem mainly exists in larger pulls. Some tanks don't generate threat evenly across mobs the same way some classes burst AoE. It's always a problem of one or two mobs losing threat and punching a melee even if that melee waits a few.

  • BollekWoW Bollek | Back to piss chilling in HC Raids (@BollekWoW) reported

    @Jimmy_Alan_ @_Reloe @WarcraftDevs this maybe matters for heroic dungeons where nobody actually deals damage. If you would actually play the game you would realise that the only tank who barely has threat issues is a dk because they can also deal so much damage themselves.

  • ZeroBringsLight Andy (@ZeroBringsLight) reported

    @JoveGaming @nnoggie @WarcraftDevs I agree with you, so the fix should be tanks threat/spells so that way they more easily cover mobs. I play a prot paladin so trust me. I get that very well!

  • AchillesLfc AchillesLFC (@AchillesLfc) reported

    @A_Oshi_ @_Reloe @WarcraftDevs True, dps having to hold back on the throttle isn't fun, but pretty much every expansion if a dps blows CDs right at the beginning of the pull there's likely to be issues. People are here acting like its something new.

  • Xspree28 Xspree (@Xspree28) reported

    @Psybear_tv @WarcraftDevs Psy can you go through the trouble of finding a bear skin? It has to be a little dragon like

  • Orph_Gaming Orph - 🐻 (@Orph_Gaming) reported

    Wait... why is Retail down for so long today? #warcraft #shadowlands #wotlk having queue issues and whatnot, I expected it, but not Retail. Hrmm...

  • Axestro1 axel (@Axestro1) reported

    @_Reloe @WarcraftDevs S3 progress tanking in raids as vdh with a bdk co-tank was also frustrating. You blast whatever DPS you have and still have to weave in taunt globals on ST. I guess that is more of a st dps tuning issue among tank specs, but still feels really bad and frustrating.

  • kiasta6984 Κυριος Δαιμονιον (@kiasta6984) reported

    @ilovelucy_wow @WarcraftDevs Looks like Blizzard is bringing their A game. Even emulating login queues like it was when WotLK first came out!

  • johan87307461 johan (@johan87307461) reported

    @Warcraft @Blizzard_Ent laggy discornection path it seems like fix gehennas FFS it is not playable at all i cant even think about how bad the wotlk release will be if its like this on prepatch :S

  • Daskius Daskius (@Daskius) reported

    @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs Have you considered using the beta platform to report the issue and proposed solution? The…thing….that a beta test is for?

  • MatejSuch SuchiC (@MatejSuch) reported

    @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs And that's a problem why?

  • VenomizedRyan Ryan (@VenomizedRyan) reported

    @nnoggie @WarcraftDevs I see no problem with the way it is. Sincerely, That Hunter who pre-pulls and misdirects threat to melee.
