[locario 0]

Can't wait for the launch date announcement.    

This.

[riplip 2]

How does it feel to be eaten by a famous youtuber? LOL

Famous? Who is he?

I only made a char and ran here, got 2hks, roughly 10-15min then I logged, however, it was quite amazing.

 

The hardware its software provided by Nostalrius seems rather good, with the immense amounts of logins happening every second and the strain shown below goes to show that Valkyrie- and Nostalrius staff are progressing well.

I salute this and their endeavor(s) and hope to continue where we left off at Nost.

Unfortunately it will not be the same for many of us, guildies and ''friends'' running off to other whereabouts and such.

 

Still..

 

I can't wait to troll in world chat, mhm, groovy.

I'd just like to add my suggestion here.

Your idea of spawning bosses in Arathi and Desolace was good one to scatter people. But it's not so easy to venture into those high level zones being level1.

So, starting up with a higher level would be a nice idea(30 atleast) so that we can spread all over Azeroth and provide better data for your tests if that's what needed.

Alternatively, Limited GM command access can be given to players to level up and add mounts alone.

Or, portals to various cities can be created at starting zones

PS: Im not an expert in this, i just wrote how i felt and added my suggestion

[Procto 9]

Yeah... No

They'd have to spawn a mob for u to click to level up to 30, + add one to give suitable armor(could do without).

And limited GM commands? Such as? Gm lvl 0 can't rly do anything beside do .gm on and lvl 1 can't do anything except moderate like e.g chats and tickets.

Lvl 2 then, and they'd have to remove tons of commands.. Just.. No, it's a horrible idea but I'm sure you had good intentions.

The whole concept would be a humongous waste of their time to get the servers in working order.

It's a nice suggestion, but it just wouldn't have the same impact on the game experience (and it would just be a burden for the devs, for 1 test). It would be rather boring going into a zone where you wouldn't be killed by everything on sight. I think everyone who has ventured in a high-level zone, at least once during the stress test, has been on a constant look-out for high-level mobs, intuiting the aggro range and/or being happy when a mob had aggro on another player and they could pass safely. It's kind of an intense experience .

 

P.S.: Nothing is/is supposed to be easy in vanilla, so venturing in a high-level zone at level 1 is just another challenge to overcome .

Nice test but why did you guys ban me when I just wanted to have some fun. I was level 11 when you dropped me, ready to go do some PvP.

I think people would have enjoyed fighting a higher level char. Anyway, hope the release comes soon.

Keep up the good work.

[cybaster 31]

Please schedule one new stress test for every angry beg by arucado for server launch.

kinda just want a bit more info, so i just discovered that i don't have to kill myself simply because vanilla in essence is coming back, i just have 2 simple questions.1.) The 3rd launch means that currently as of 11/28/2016 7:46am the servers are closed for public? 2.) I tried to create an account through he Elysium home page but it gave me the "Registrations are closed until the project is released.

Follow us on Twitter and join our Discord for more informations!" message, does this mean i have to wait till the 3rd launch to make an acount and be able to play? any answers or hate speeches will do, send nudes if ur gonna bash.

Have you thought about implementing the clustering system, which nostalrius didn't get to release ? ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RL06DdydiC0 )

[Tessel 0]

 

While thankful for all the work devs put in for a smooth launch I just can't take all this waiting anymore.

And with that said, I'm 100% expecting a surprise next-day-release announcement.

 

I am fairly certain that you have to wait at least a month after the next stresstest for the release. dont want to burst your bubble, but the nostalrius team is known to be perfectionistic and thats why it will take a while to get the servers up and running again. But that is a good thing because when they launch you also get perfection and not some buggy mess.

[locario 0]

ok let's see.

 

What have changed? nothing.

 

The core it's the same, and the hardware are similar, 1 month to release? seriusly?

 

Wait until sunday comes and then we will see the release date.

[XreaperDK 6]

So the server that's going to be released right after the 3rd stress test, is the Nost PVP server?

 

I'll wait for the fresh PVP server.

 

Not right after, they are telling us when the release date is right after, not actually releasing it. I see how you could get that mixed up though.

Dear Elysium Dev's

 

As I really appreciate Your's efforts You are putting to this project and i'm fully aware of that, that it's only your passion for classic WOW and not "monetized real life requirements"  that is driving You to work more and more to lunch this project as soon as possible so the main part of fun can begin, and also I understand that dealing with "high hyped" community of which I became part not long ago (just before release of news that Elysium will continue Nost legacy) is not an easy task with calendar full of deadlines related to project start, I also crave more precise information on dates, technical details etc. soooooo badly.....

 

It would be most kind of You to get us more of detailed information on dates if its possible. I understand that putting Yourself in situation when You commit to deliver before confirming Your schedule in 100% can be difficult and lead to serious consequences especially in wide and well known project like this. I also believe that most community will be grateful for any scrap of information on this topic especially that most of info provided at the start of project is probably not actual anymore. 

 

Also we will appreciate more of technical information even if You will publish some hi detailed lua programming jibrish that even to get a small glimpse of understanding we will have to google it for few hours or buy and learn few books "LUA, WOW and You - simple guide for LUA programming in WOW for noobs". 

 

At last but not least just wont to say - can't wait for fresh server start. Good Job Guys

 

Sincerely Your's 

Abuse

 

P.S. Sorry for few mistakes in grammar. ENG is my second lang. Hope You can live with what You saw here.

The dates are hard to know for sure at this point. They can't say dates right now because they don't know what the next stress tests will look like. They probably know what will take how much time, but they don't know what they still need to do before launch so they can't release this info until then, but they will inform us of that afterwards. About the server progression dates, that will also be released soon under their timeline page when the server releases I believe.

 

For the detailed info, if they gave this info it would take away from the time spent on fixing the server, so while some of us do want more info, a lot would rather them focus their time on fixing it, rather than updating us on the specifics. However if the staff does have free time between fixing and the test that is just waiting for the test to start, then I think they should release more technical info for us. Would be educational for us if nothing else!

Take your time for the best possible release, looking forward to the 3rd and hopefully last test.

[Amaelle 0]

I can't wait

Thanks Elysium !

Amazing work dev team! Had a blast at the tests and looking forward to the revival of the community.

Take as much time as you need and know you have support. 

[Rogrash 0]

I really hope this means all 3 servers will launch at the same time. <3

[Syanis 2]

Secret would be doing a Tuesday launch date. Come weekend when the masses have lots of time a fair number will be past the newbie areas already and things will be a bit more spread out rather then 100% of people flooding newbie zones.

 

The bonus is a Tuesday/weekday release would be beneficial to the old retired crowd veterans and disabled veterans. Now you do care about Veterans now don't you?....

[XreaperDK 6]

I really hope this means all 3 servers will launch at the same time. <3

They already confirmed a while ago that they will not. They will be released a few days/weeks apart to make sure everything runs smoothly and works. They will all be released within 3-4 weeks from fist to release to last to release. Could be a lot sooner though
