  • babsbennett TXRedTurningTXBlue (@babsbennett) reported

    @Warcraft Huh, I got on with no problem about 6 hours ago. I even logged off and then back on an hour later. Servers were up and running fine.

  • MEdwards_Gaming 🍂𝐌𝐢𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝐄𝐝𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 🦃🍂 (@MEdwards_Gaming) reported

    @Moofzy @Warcraft @WarcraftDevs if thanikos isn't spawning try and phase it by dropping quest, then logging out and logging back in also had that issue when in a group

  • Zepperoni Ghosted (@Zepperoni) reported

    @Warcraft Played 6.5 hours straight. No queue, no crash, no server restart. Best release ever! My nostalgic self was almost disappointed...lol. Sleep now and binge some more before maintenance.

  • Mysfit_Kris Kris owen (@Mysfit_Kris) reported

    @ALLIE_LONG @Warcraft Are you liking the lag?

  • RickSuperKick RickSuperKick (@RickSuperKick) reported

    @Warcraft Launch was almost 8 hours ago and still unable to login

  • SwagzSkalley Skalley (Gumbrother) Swagz (@SwagzSkalley) reported

    @CrizFN @WarcraftDevs Was like that for me all day until 15 minutes ago I was finally able to change realm to my main town. That server was high not full like the previous one, and was able to login quick. Think it's just traffic causing issues

  • aussie_eevee AussieEevee (@aussie_eevee) reported

    lol... I had less trouble running @Warcraft when I was running Linux... now i'm back on Windows (temporarily) and Warcraft is giving me no end of trouble.

  • BarakehSalameh salameh barakeh (@BarakehSalameh) reported

  • GeorgeEGarzon George (@GeorgeEGarzon) reported

    @Warcraft fix your game!! 6 hours and can’t even login! What is this????

  • enderdragongf athena (@enderdragongf) reported

    @Warcraft Lmao these comments don’t understand how hard it is to not have a server crash in an insanely popular game like this. Just be patient and wait !!!

  • Aethelbeorn Matt Dunster (@Aethelbeorn) reported

    @BlizzardCS What did everyone think was going to happen , blizz cannot have an expansion launch without the same issues as before. it's all part of the Warcraft experience you pay for 🤠

  • TwistAndShout47 Shadow Heart Vespasian. (@TwistAndShout47) reported

    @Warcraft is they a way to retrieve characters? I ask because I'm thinking of getting back into WoW but my hunter is on my old pc so I know I'll have to buy the game again but I'm hoping I can retrieve them and speaking of I've forgotten the login details as well.

  • _Nyfaria Nyfaria (@_Nyfaria) reported

    @Targetdh @Warcraft @TSM This is their Social Media Team. I doubt an Overpaid Twitter User can Fix their servers.

  • GotSnipes_ED Gotsnipes_WSB (@GotSnipes_ED) reported

    @Warcraft Would be nice to be able to login. Good thing they took extra time on the expac, really paid off.

  • efxSP_ Efx (@efxSP_) reported

    @eg_FiKnight @Warcraft @DesMephisto Yes, I'm sure the person running their Twitter is in charge of server issues.

  • moonglowSiberia eluniya ⊬ ✨ (@moonglowSiberia) reported

    @lights @Warcraft I remember back in Naxx days I took my laptop and hid in my closet so my dad wouldn’t know I skipped bedtime to raid with my guild but my laptop would overheat and cause mad lag so I had to sit out a few boss fights lol.

  • MacAttack1911 MacAttack (@MacAttack1911) reported

    @Warcraft what happened? You’ve had 16 years to have a launch go flawless and it hasn’t happen. How is it you still can’t get this right? You already have a world 1st level 60 but 75% of your player base can’t login...#failCraft

  • jmanns89 Jayson (@jmanns89) reported

    @BlizzardCS any chance someone can figure out why my game continues to crash and tells me my world of warcraft installation is damaged. I've re dowoaded the game twice today....after completely deleting everything. Launcher might load then get a streaming error has occured

  • Blind_recon Skyisfalling (@Blind_recon) reported

    @WatcherDev @Squishei @WarcraftDevs now fix disabling boobytraps quest, if you miss the timer - > u are done. you can't pick up buffs anymore

  • DinoDaMunchy Dino (@DinoDaMunchy) reported

    Bro @Warcraft get your **** together and fix Area 52... literally the only server thats not working.

  • amiyuy_ Ami Yuy (@amiyuy_) reported

    @CountGriffin @Warcraft Sorry for not responding to your tweet earlier, but I'm very glad you saw this! Please let me know if you have any issues!

  • YoTeeJay TJ (@YoTeeJay) reported

    are we close to a fix @Blizzard_Ent @Warcraft ?

  • NelrockM3 Nelrock (@NelrockM3) reported

    @WatcherDev @Squishei @WarcraftDevs Or...by having a linear questing path that...you guys were warned would cause problems exactly like this? You guys should be experts at this by now. It's disappointing to see these decisions that will lead to obvious problems.

  • NetherlordKolme Kolme (@NetherlordKolme) reported

    I see there's a wee patch. Maybe it will fix this phasing issue Scroff and I are having. I was so excited to level with him again and we can't even see each other. #Shadowlands #Warcraft

  • AlirezaAzizmoh1 AlirezaAzizmohammadi (@AlirezaAzizmoh1) reported

    @Warcraft After 3 hours of “world server down” i gave up and went to sleep 4 hours later i wake up and its still the same **** And instead of an statement or apology you are sharing this crap?!

  • JoseAntonio86 Antonio C. A. (@JoseAntonio86) reported

    @Warcraft The best advise that I can give you as a customer is fix the dam servers you are not an indie developer

  • _FriendlyBanter Friendly Banter (@_FriendlyBanter) reported

    WarcraftDevs: To solve an issue with the new Shadowlands PvP vendors, we need to despawn them temporarily. The vendors will return with the next realm restarts.

  • Stormnor Stormnor (@Stormnor) reported

    Ending the night 53 1/2 gonna crash for a couple hours then back at it @Warcraft
