  • YoTeeJay TJ (@YoTeeJay) reported

    are we close to a fix @Blizzard_Ent @Warcraft ?

  • Mysfit_Kris Kris owen (@Mysfit_Kris) reported

    @ALLIE_LONG @Warcraft Are you liking the lag?

  • _Nyfaria Nyfaria (@_Nyfaria) reported

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

  • _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.

  • KristaKouns Krista Kouns (@KristaKouns) reported

    @Cadhik1 @Warcraft It's a marketing problem. Companies owe it to their clientele to set reasonable expectations. Don't excitedly invite all your fans to sign in on "Launch Day!" if they can't actually sign in. People are justifiably upset. They were intentionally built up then let down.

  • 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 !!!

  • ThethingsIsaid J Veal (@ThethingsIsaid) reported

    @Warcraft Got any tips on why my characters are not showing up on Illidan? Gotta love all these streamers not having issues, while I have to play other games until I get even a word about whats happening with our server.

  • BarakehSalameh salameh barakeh (@BarakehSalameh) reported

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • AshwindGamer Optimistic Ashwind, Player of Old Games Reborn (@AshwindGamer) reported

    I made it to 54 on my original Druid, even with the Character Not Found issue and taking 30 minutes to get my walking in. Fun story so far! Switching to my Druid on my friends' server for a bit, because why rush? #Warcraft #Shadowlands

  • 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

  • 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?!

  • 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

  • CaseyNewton_TL C. Newton (@CaseyNewton_TL) reported

    @Goldenforce772 @CaptainVG313 @KZ_T19 All that trash heap World Of Warcraft does is cause more trouble than it's worth. People and their raid obsessions often break up families. #WorldOfWarcraft #Shadowlands #Warcraft People in sensible games like Star Trek Online have common sense to put real life first.

  • 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

  • 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

  • DavidSarandria David Sarandria (@DavidSarandria) reported

    @Warcraft @Blizzard_Ent Unless you're on Area 52 and it's been 5+ hours trying 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

  • 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

  • DinoDaMunchy Dino (@DinoDaMunchy) reported

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • WatcherDev Ion Hazzikostas (@WatcherDev) reported

    @Squishei @WarcraftDevs We're working on fix now. The issue is actually exacerbated by people all spamming AOEs and trying to get the tap. Allowing Mothbane a second to dismount will make it all work smoothly (easier said than done, I know). Anyway, a fix is being tested.

  • tzipishadowglen Tzipi (@tzipishadowglen) reported

    Everyone in @CultofElune on Stormrage has been dealing with failed or stalled logins, severe lag, disconnects... some of us were lucky to play for a bit. It's launch day, and we expected problems but not extended unplayability. #shadowlands #wow #warcraft

  • XtraliveTV XtraLive TV (@XtraliveTV) reported

    @Warcraft @Blizzard_Ent Fix your **** blizzard illidan server is crapping out right now

  • Adelius83 Adelius (@Adelius83) reported

    @Warcraft FIX THE SERVERS!!!!

  • CrizFN Criz (@CrizFN) reported

    @WarcraftDevs Any idea why my characters don’t pop up or how to fix it myself?

  • GeorgeEGarzon George (@GeorgeEGarzon) reported

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