RonaldoR9 2 Report post Posted December 2, 2016 27354 accounts! is this counting the amount of accounts created over the course of the 3 stress tests or only this last one?!! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Docholy 4 Report post Posted December 2, 2016 The total signups is just for this stress test. So yeah big number. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smula 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2016 We can count here until Stress test. I guess it would be fun So if it would be equally distributed to all 3 Server (which will not be the case), there would be 10k Accs on each server... Even if 50% leave this would still make a pop of 5K/Server which is really a big pop for a server! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lootolf 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2016 Its 2nd Stress Test with new accs. Lets be honest, the peak of "30K" players will only hold for a week 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Docholy 4 Report post Posted December 2, 2016 Yeah after a month the peak will drop but plenty of people will be around to gank and raid with. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smula 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) Of course the amount of Players will drop a few weeks after release, but with this initial amount of Players I´ve got no doubt that the servers will still look and feel very crowded. In Vanilla my retail Server was around 1.5k-2k population as I remember. And I never felt alone Edited December 2, 2016 by Smula 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Xykaru 1 Report post Posted December 2, 2016 Fortunately! Even if the tree servers would be even populated, 10k players per server would be too much for classic wow. No way. There's never too many people to kill. Never. I've got that drooling bloodlust for the PvP on the fresh server. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Though a "FULL" rated server had upwards of up to 25,000 active accounts counting both factions. AQ gate opening night, 1,200+ in queue.

rikkisix 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2016 Numbers look nice for sure, but time gives us all answers. For all we know raptor overlords will come and destroy the world as we wait for the stress test. I'm going to have to hope we get 10-15k people. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arbet 9 Report post Posted December 2, 2016 10K players too much for WoW? Nope... that's what Nostalrius had and it was great. (with exception of view distance) 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shayss 43 Report post Posted December 2, 2016 My estimate is 9k - 10k max will show up at this test. If it's more than that.. god help us all 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I am just telling from a german perspective Anyway you have always to consider that all the people out there that would like to play Vanilla didn´t even heard about the "rebirth" (not the server haha ) I mean 28k accounts of people that know that this is just a stress test.... that have to be "Vanilla Nerds"(you can compare them to "early adopters") , because beside some bigger Youtuber like Nixxom, no one reported it. This Number will easily increase till sunday to 30k+ And with launch it will increase more because people will share their experience. Of course there will be many people that got too high or nostalgic expectations about Vanilla-wow and they will leave but, from this amount of players that we got without any real "marketing" or viral success, we can clearly expect 3 very well populated Server, even in 6 Months.
