https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/news/21881587/dev-watercooler-world-of-warcraft-classic

After careful consideration, we decided on Patch 1.12: Drums of War as our foundation, because it represents the most complete version of the classic experience

I seem to be the only gamer alive that has absolutely no positive memories about WoW Confused . I remember it as a tedious grind fest with shitty graphics, far too much walking and uninteresting quests. After Ultima Online, this game felt incredibly shallow.

Its was a lot like a lot of jobs, absolutely loved the people i played with but forever hating Blizzard Smile

I love the idea of returning back to classic but they will make all that effort and then make it very casual like the game has become. I was never in any real good guilds and i remember the 2-3 hours you could spend in a normal instance, last time i played you can just run through most stuff on autopilot.

+1

Ultima Online and Eve Online were the most groundbreaking MMOs in their time, and Eve is still pretty much the most complex game ever made.
Never understood the fandom around WoW, it didn't even offer the same kind of freedom that UO did many years before, I guess it was just every babby's first MMO.

I think some people who spent the majority of time playing WoW with the expansions will find out that the glorified (nostalgic) vanilla/classic experience isn't so fun after all. It will be nostalgic for a while, then the flaws of the classic will become apparent and most will probably go back to normal WoW.

judging from having no queue times and there being only one high pop realm in the demo, it will not be the massive succes everything thinks it will be, i was bored of walkking after 20 mins alreay, the drop quests are just mindnummingly booring n tedious.

Big part of the fun was exploring the world. That's gone now, I'm not sure if I could level one char in classic again. I'd probably give up at level ~30 when I get quests for Hinterlands and Desolace (UGH that zone ...)

It is still a better working system for levelling than what we have now.
But yeah other than levelling a character on the side for that old AV version I'm not too bothered with it. Played it back in the days and have run servers on my own over the years when I felt in a nostalgia mood for the first three expansions.

Problem started when running a Legion server. Pulled me back into WoW. Laughing

The production will be released in a version that corresponds to the original World of Warcraft, patch 1.2. This will be the first phase in which we will visit such locations as Molten Core and Onyxia's Lair.

Later on, the development of World of Warcraft Classic will be divided into five successive stages, slowly expanding the game content with new locations and challenges:

In the second phase we will get the city of Dire Maul and Kazzak and Azuregos raids.
In the third phase we will get Blackwing Lair and a collection of Darkmoon Faire activities.
Phase four will bring Zul'Gurub raid and the appearance of green dragons.
In the fifth phase the city of Ahn'Qiraj will start its war effort, introducing new raids. Dungeon loot configuration will be Tier 0.5
The sixth and final phase will bring the flying necropolis of Naxxramas and the beginning of the Scourge Invasion event.

Whenever I feel nostalgic for whatever expansion... I just set up my own server of that expansion (you can even have A.I. with ya to kit out a full group). The added bonus: no one around me (except that time me and the wife were playing TBC), since I hate the vast majority of other humans these days. :>

Also, once you had enough of the 'authentic' feeling you can tweak the values and have some fun with it.

as a rogue teaming up just is fun to backstab Smile and it should last well for a year+ this server with its own content plan with new stages every few months unlocking, worst case scenario 3 months of activisionretards going full ham against prvt servers again

Yeah that was in Vanilla as well.

In retail it can happen because of the server/client not catching up. A bit like: not being dismounted right away when flying indoors/cave. So not really the same.
