    @Warcraft Seems like Kazzak (EU) is having major issues before launch, 45 mins to get it fixed? Guessing its not going to happen #Shadowlands

  • tzipishadowglen Tzipi (@tzipishadowglen) reported

    "World Server Down" is a false error message.. it more like some interior queue going on and that is the message that pops up. Keep trying. #shadowlands #wow #warcraft

  • ZyborgRSA Brendynn Taylor (@ZyborgRSA) reported

    @anniefuchsia @Warcraft I've prepped by going to bed early so that I can wake up at 4 AM so that I can get a couple hours of Shadowlands before I have to login and start working. Tomorrow is going to take a lot of self control.

  • AgentofIX Doomer Reflex Ⓙ (@AgentofIX) reported

    Do something ffs with login issues @BlizzardCSEU_EN @Blizzard_Ent #worldofwarcraft

  • Akalabeth95 Akalabeth95 (@Akalabeth95) reported

    So trying to port into Orgrimmar right now is not working and porting to Thunderbluff to fly to Org was brutal. God damn, I love expansion launch days! #Shadowlands #worldofwarcraft (btw that's not sarcasm, I genuinely love how buggy the first few days are.)

  • NorthofRapture Paweł Durczok (@NorthofRapture) reported

    In just over 2,5 hours Shadowland is going to launch... Which probably means server queues, login problems and random errors. Unless, of course, Blizzard intends to break #worldofwarcraft tradition ;)

  • Lu_Ke16 Lukas (@Lu_Ke16) reported

    Already lagging lol @WarcraftDevs #Shadowlands

  • CrsTimo Timo (@CrsTimo) reported

    So, @Warcraft, I really hope that tonight your servers will not lag/crash Like all other releases. Since you’re a billionaire company, you have all the resources to upgrade your servers @NASA style or even better... I want to play that’s why we pay!

  • StevenSinky Steven Sinclair (@StevenSinky) reported

    @WarcraftDevs Fix your servers ffs. 16 years and still trash

  • real_decoco Raul Delgado (@real_decoco) reported

    I keep getting stuck in a loading screen and kicked to my character selection screen with a notification saying "World Server Down" @WarcraftDevs
