Progression servers would of been great, but Blizzard is stubborn and stupid so who knows if that will ever be a thing. Right now they are collecting free cash just re-releasing content at a snails pace. They will probably do TBC once Vanilla is done and squeeze 2 years of free cash out of that too rinse and repeat until who knows.

I expect the timeline will be as such:
Q4 2020 Shadowlands
Q3 2021 Another round of classic start Progression servers at 6-8 months per expansion release (some expacs get delayed for "technical reasons" but really just to push them to not coincide with 2022 Expansion)

Prog servers are just too good of a way to get people to maintain their subs yearlong instead of the massive influx and departure that WoW gets when new expansions and content updates drop. The way they structured their first round of classic is good from a "purist" perspective, but to really get people to keep playing (and SUBBING) you gotta throw "new" content in their face constantly with still enough time that people don't feel they are getting left behind. 5 Months per raidzone is just too long and leads to gear saturation as well, so when new content DOES drop it's even easier than it would be normally.

Also 25 man from the start if they aren't going to retune raid mechanics (idk how you do 4 horsemen with 25 I didn't do the WOTLK version).

New Classic servers need to fix the mistakes of Classic "Season 1"

No spell batching

Progressive Loot Tables

Re-tuned/harder mobs/bosses/

Then it's no longer Classic

Undoing the rumoured/alleged nerfs to mobs/bosses, is a revert rather than an addition.

Oh yeah, the buff cap bullshit should also be finally fixed. Seems like the 32 buff cap is a coding legacy, rather than a game decision.

haha rofl wrong. You seem to be missing the point. The second you add new content to classic, whether that's dungeons/raids or game balancing decisions, it's no longer classic but classic+

Everything I listed would be a reversion back to how it was in Vanilla, rather than Classic+

Spell batching is artifical lag coded into the classic client to replicate weird things that happened in game as a result of 2004 internet speeds.

Progressive loot tables means not starting the game with items/gear that didn't drop until later patches.

Undoing alleged nerfs to mobs/bosses that took place in 1.12 or pre-TBC is not "new classic+ content either"

Get a clue before your next reply, pls

No retuning is not classic. Look you fucking dumb eurocuck. What you want is a vanilla like experience. That is not classic and that's okay, but don't drool out on your keyboard no changes while asking for a bunch of changes to classic WoW,

" New Classic servers need to fix the mistakes of Classic "Season 1" "

Fucking hell you're dumb.

I'm arguing for a better, more Vanilla like Classic with a better game engine (eg no artificially coded lag)

You are suggesting balance changes - which then become Vanilla/Classic+ and a new game experience entirely

My buddy plays there and keeps telling me transfer. Once I saw the zero alliance population, I said nope!

1 of the 2 guilds on alliance Skeram have cleared AQ40 except for Visc already. I don't follow the other one.
