I really hope they think this through - and I hope they don't think this is a long term solution to fixing Anathemas population and making it a viable population that will last. This is what needs to happen.. They first need to wait for all the vanilla servers to be on the same timeline - and let Elysium have atleast 1-2 months of AQ progression in order to even out the gear difference. Then they need to merge Anathema and Elysium together for NAXX and the continuation of vanilla. Then they should release 2 separate TBC servers - a PvP server and a PvE server. And transfer Darrowshire to the PvE server and Ana/Ely to the PvP server. They also need to make cross-realm BG's/Arena otherwise the PvE server will just die out. I know the nost devs figured out the network structure on their core to achieve this but yeah. Best of luck.

Nano said that they were working on a way to combat the Mafia/Cartel farming. Post: https://gyazo.com/385bd0493af4e7f8f134f3de1a37e2cc Should be interesting, and even if they make it so you can't set timers by randomizing the spawns - simple macroeconomics states that the price would increase and the profit would remain the same. So I'm interested to see how they "fix it". Supply and demand baby.

If your goal is to speed run out of the starting area in order to get ahead of the curve, I wouldn't recommend using Joana's guide. Everybody and their brother is using that guide and tagging anything will be insanely difficult because everyone will be in the same spot. I'd recommend getting your 5 man party and leaving the starting area to kill level 5's. - 8's until you hit level 5 and at that point you should start the quests at brill. The PvE server might be a little more laid back in terms of population on release day, but I still think tagging anything will prove to be insanely difficult in the 1-5 starting area. Good luck.

Yeah, an official reply would be great. Pottu closed another thread asking the same question the other day - referring him to this thread... So Pottu has at least seen the question. The delayed response is probably testing if this would actually trigger the anti-cheat.

A lot of the players on the old realm waited years to play on Nost as they transitioned from a french server to a public server for everyone. The Nostalrius brand name is connected to the old servers. Launching them prior to the new ones increases the longevity of the old servers and the project - try and see it from the perspective of the hundreds of thousands of people who invested many days into their characters that they just want to play again. It'll also be better for the fresh server because there will be less players rolling there. Nostalrius launch day had 4,000 players and got up to 5,000 the next week and questing wasn't really possible with those numbers, and I'd guess that the fresh start is going to get 10,000 players on launch day.. so good luck tagging anything that first week. This isn't just about the new players who want to play or the people wanting to start anew, it's about the community and what's best for it - and prolonging the launch in order to launch all three servers simultaneously isn't what's best for the community, so sit back, relax and grab yourself a beverage and make a twink on the old pvp server while you wait for the fresh one. Cheers.

Blizzlike guilds were capped at 300 players - and that's what Nostalrius is currently capped at.

haha

Yeah, I think it went pretty well though, towards the end of the video you can see that we could actually pvp and the delay wasn't bad at all. I had 160 ms.

A little video of the events that unfolded, got some crazy world pvp! Looking forward to round 2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSSNgCXuDBA
