Why don't these retards just hire the Turtle WoW admins to make the game worth playing again? Instead they just shut down an enjoyable server to force people to play their diversity hire coded crap
>>533181832Yes lad, the people that didn't want to hire IceFrog are going to hire a bunch of Russians, also >>>/vg/
rip in peace
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4jv6li0N7kwould you hire these two absolute specimens, known scam artists playing a long con, who went on to work with the russian mafia
>>533181832good thing i stopped playing back when the moltdown happened
>>533181832Can't they just host the server in an eastern european forest like moltenwow?
>>533181832That's sad. I used to play on turtle but their drop rates were shit.......
>>533182170Blizzard's loss was Lord Gaben's gain.Also side note is captcha taking forever to load for anyone else?
>>533181832That’s what they get for increasing the cast time of searing pain just when i was making a solo destro warlock
>>533181832turtle wow was dogshit anyway
>Meanwhile fucking blizzard:
>>533182170Oof, this nigga games and knows gaming history.
fyi, mods deleted this thread yesterdayinb4 mods delete this thread today
>>533181832We used to have a bunch of different servers that all did things differently, but all broadly tried to be somewhat faithful to the spirit of the old games.Now neo-Blizzard finally have the legal precedent to shut all the private servers down while selling you their mangled "classic" servers because there will be no alternative.>You think you do, but you don't.He was right.
>>533182905Lol
>>533182989I was gaming Epoch/Turtle/Ambershite/Whitemane last summer for a while and now it feels nostalgic. Why does WoW always feel nostalgic in your head but suck to play?Oh right, the other players.
>>533181832With the death of turtle comes the death of actual classic WoW in terms of representing what the lore and world felt like before MoP and Cataclysm made it gay shit for babies and WoD, BFA and Shadowlands raped the corpse. If you want classic + in the future, you will be forced to play with Jeets and chinks who destroy the ingame economy and make grouping a miserable experience
>>533182904Its brutal. Like 2 min for captcha and another min to actually post.We're living in HELL. HELL I TELL YA!
How rapid is a rapid shutdown though? I don’t have notifications from Turtlewow’s discord and this shit’s been going on for ages. This sounds like they ain’t closing until 2028 by exploiting legal loopholes and deadlines.
Server's still up for me. Great server actually. I was opposed for many years with all the tranny posting and how they'll ban anyone who talks about Trump but it's really not that bad. Just don't talk about politics and enjoy the game. The new zones and dungeons they added are pretty good. Sometimes, they go a little too far. Dragonmaw Retreat is huge as fuck and takes way too long to finish. They were approaching BRD levels of length in that dungeon. The class changes are fine. They made shaman a bit too strong though. It'd be a shame if it actually shuts down though because I think the added zones, quests, dungeons, gear end up being really good. Going back to vanilla is boring.
>>533183286In 2 months is the deadline, but it’s unlikely to actually close. What’s likely to happen is blizzard simply makes it unreasonably difficult to play Turtle and strangle donations and development so that it’s impossible to keep the server running
>>533181832>>>/v/who gives a fuck
how does this work actually? aren’t their servers in england and some SEA countries?wtf can the courts in fagyfornia do about it?
>>533183344TrannyWoW made paladins sickeningly OP and 80% of the players are either human or high elf pallies. Gay fag shit ass server.Leveling on Ambershire was disgusting with literally 80% of players paladins.If one of my sons ever plays an MMO in my house Imma box him out. Gay ass waste of time.
>>533183550>Plays alliance>Complains about how gay the game is
>>533183035I have zero problems with gay people but if McDonald’s did a “lets get fat!” Promo where fat people gorge themselves on McDonald’s food, everyone except a handful of fat fucks would be disgusted viewing it. Food is a base desire, so is Sex, Blizzard here is promoting gay sex, nothing wrong with that except again imagine McDonald’s parallel. They are trying to engorge you on their product. If McDonald’s can’t advertise directly to fatties, Video Games shouldn’t directly advertise to porn-brained faggots. What else is my takeaway supposed to be when they are giving PCs virtual pride flags than they wanna ram rod some Tauren at pride rock just like I wanna suck moon elf pussy in her Yoda tree hut. Wasn’t gamergate about too much sexuality in games? Maybe Anita had a point.
>>533183441Blizzard represents the leader in globohomo trannyism and is effectively a massive donation engine for the Democratic Party, and is thus relevant to /pol/
>>533183507The servers are usually in France because they tell US compliance enforcement to frig off and the ping is still playable if you're NA
>>533183656No gamergate was about a bunch of incel tourists pretending they liked video games so they could pretend to be outraged that women work in the industry and organize harassment campaigns
you faggots want to know why I played turtlewow? This is why.I would have been willing to give my money to blizzard if they didn't bring socio-political shit into their game.
>>533183646I think I was alliance because of some good reason I can't remember and don't care to think about.
>>533183882Bro I hate to be the one to break this to you, but even long before the gay shit the game is full of politics. It's just the politics that were in the game before is shit you grew up with so you didn't notice.
>>533183949The Forsaken were the only real race worth playing. They should have split from the gay horde and covered the planet in a miasma of death.
>>533181832You ruined my day nigger.. What's gonna happen with my account?Fucking blizzard kikes
>>533183656>>533183803Gamergate was about the gaming industry and gaming "journalists" and journalism in general being incestuous fucks with no ethics. Only retards were mad about women and only lying shills say it was about men being mad about women.
>>533184172It’s closing tomorrow, give me your gold and goods.
>>533184186All the ethics in journalism stuff was bullshit made up by misogynist freaks mad about women.
>NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NOT THE SLOP!!!are you niggers for real? society is actively collapsing around you and the first thing on your mind is to come to the politics board, not discuss the politics or the collapse, but rather discuss some random slop from 2004? you do understand that your life in the physical reality around you that you can touch with your hands is about to become significantly worse, right?
>>533184320>misogynistEverybody who uses this word is an incel
>>533184172If you cared about your MMO account you wouldn't play on private servers.
>>533181832what exactly is Turtle WoW? ive been playing off and on since 2004
>>533184528Are you dumb anon? I can’t change the gas prices or prevent a famine, but i can genocide gnomes with my goblin warlock and have fun while doing it. You seem to hate fun.
>>533181832But why would it shut down if it's from Russia? US intellectual property is free to go at for Russians.
>>533184598A lesser version of Epoch WoW
>>533184528Private servers are the Aryan ideal, carving your own path free of Jewish control over the IP and claiming it for the fans. Corporate Jews are declaring war not just on whites, but creativity and freedom itself. They are saying “everything you love and cherish belongs to us, and can be raped freely by us even if you aren’t directly competing with us”. They are declaring they won’t leave you alone, and won’t stop until you start to kill them openly.
>>533183224Its been many years since I've played wow can you explain why people want an alternate server? Is it really because of browns? How are they ruining the economy?
>>533184878Blizzard has royally fucked UP classic, including hardcore servers, by pretty much abandoning support for older servers and leaving them to rot and be infested by third worlders running BOT farms. There’s pretty much no GM moderation of RMT, boosting, gold selling etc except if you say nigger or call someone a trannie, then suddenly their automatic system comes down on you like a hammer.
>>533184878Alternative private servers simply provide a better experience. There’s an actually community that cares about it even if it’s smaller, there’s new content that’s oftentimes better than official blizzard shit, there are GM’s that ban RMT/gold selling and who actively participate in the community. They’re also 99% frees Servers like Turtle are superior in every way to official Blizztroon garbage which is why they suddenly feel the need to flex their lawyers when for years prior they ignored them.
>>533181832>Why don't these retards just hire the Turtle WoW admins to make the game worth playing again?This costs money>Instead they just shut down an enjoyable server to force people to play their diversity hire coded crapThis also costs money, but they get DEIbux, probably
>>533181832Takes away the circus. Prices the bread out of reach while telling them to buy cakes. Just in time for that fuel shortages that will cripple the economy and the systems ability to react.I like where this is going.
>>533183224>If you want classic + in the future, you will be forced to play with Jeets and chinks who destroy the ingame economyReminder that Chinese gold sellers were part of the experience from launch, and that Steve Bannon ran a Goldman Sachs funded gold selling companyhttps://www.wired.com/2008/11/ff-ige/>A few months later, as if on cue, Collins-Rector made British tabloid news when he reportedly turned up in London consorting with teenage boys>Pierce had told him that Collins-Rector was blackmailing him, threatening to snarl IGE in litigation that would make it unattractive to investors
>>533184740It probably isnt hosted in Russia now, somewhere in the EU most likely. They should definitely move to Russian servers. Be so cool if some actual Russian game dev company adopted their project as a fu to activision and the US
>>533183550>chooses to play alliance specifically on the RP PvE server>complains about gay it isI hit max level with horde (a druid) on the pvp server and never did a single raid or max level dungeon. It was just non-stop griefing and I wrecked pallies with kiting both while leveling and at max levelI kited one elf bitch across the entirety of Tanaris and insect swarmed her to death in some hut she tried to hide in
>>533183035>>533183882This is why ffxi is the only MMO worth playingNone of the gay shit no race mixing and still funXiv and wow are all for trannies and the fags
>playing tbc anniversary>friends are alliance on dreamscythe (pve) for some reason>all of the players are the most abnormal specimens ive ever encountered in this game
>>533181832>taunt the legal owner with youtube and facebook ads>loses>cries about itare we sure the turtlewow devs aren't jewish instead of russian?
>>533185695Blizzard hates the IP and its fans and have basically raped its corpse for years now. A project comes along that gave the fans what they actually wanted and the trannies at Blizzard sperged out that people were leaving their Pozz-session to play something superior.
>>533183646Como español deberías jugar alianza y humano paladín o sacerdote y hacer honor a tus antepasados defensores del catolicismo. La horda son razas salvajes similares a los negros del caribe y los indios americanos.
>>533185433Based. I always played Horde pvp back in the day but nuWoW players can't handle world pvp so pve servers are high population.
It's been 20+ years since this released, can't we just emulate the entire classic game on a mobile device?
>>533181832Gayming is dead. Grow up.
>>533182904I thought I was banned or something thanks bud
>>533182821yeah, they always could, problem is the ping sucks and the rerouting through other proxies is expensive and can get denied by shit like these lawsuits
>>533181832WoW is an simulation of Hell
>>533190374Unironically WoW changed over time pretty much like the west 1 to 1, definitely kiked up.
>>533190374So is life tho
You could always join us over in OSRS but it might be too hard for you guys
Torta/Shenna will open a new server like she always does, this is always her plan, grow a server, get as much money as she can and then let it die. who cares about turtle wow
WoW is a fucking cancer, I re-subbed around November 2025 and the hype lasted until 2 weeks ago and then i realized how big of a waste of time it is, i was playing era and some hardcore and did some raiding aswell but the playerbase is shit, it's a solved game. I don't know what to play now
>>533181832This is World of Warcraft now - fucking pride parades and bullshit. Blizzard sucks because its just women, homosexuals and trannies. Fuck all of that bullshit shit. Never giving Blizzard money ever again.https://www.wowhead.com/news/darkspear-dash-wows-first-official-pride-event-coming-in-patch-12-0-5-380974
>>533190800dont think we dont remember their pride march a few years back. Dont think paying a few streamers to play after sod will make us forget
>>533190943same, I am playing since original Cata, never missed an expansion but had a long break in BfA and skipped almost all of Dragonflight. Thought Midnight would be better but here we are. I wasted money for the expansion only to play almost 2 weeks of it.I don't feel the urge anymore to play that shit but I am like you, I don't know what to play now because WoW was the only game I really played
>>533181832It's worrying that you're even making this thread because that's almost 2 years down the drain for me if they do.Quit drawing attention to us nigger.
>>533181832Knew it, that's why I never started on it. Unfortunate. RIP.
>>533183656>>533183803>>533184320No, you are all wrong. It was feminism/marxism/globalism - or what you now want to call the woke bullshit agenda with the pride flag lefty bullshit as a driving force in order to cry racism, sexism and all kind of made up bullshit because what they are talking about is not real. It's a attack against men, what men think is fun, an attack on a culture in a society in order They came for movies, they came for games, they came for books, they came for music and pussyfied it. How? By being tourists that go into what people like to cry about racism and sexism to make it political and turn people into victims and recruit more into their group to swallow more of the world like a blobb.If you want proof of this, one of their arguments "There is no women in the gaming industry" - says a woman that doesn't know shit, tons of women programmers inside the gaming industry though the ages if you actually read the names who created them back in the 80s, 90s up to modern time like Roberta Lynn Williams and many like her. Like they are crying "women and black people didn't exist in movies before" - holy fuck look at any random movie from the 60s, 70s, 80s and you have black people in it, and women doctors and scientists and shit. Female action stars, horror lead, Sci fi lead and everything in betweenIts all made up bullshit because these women have never ever played a game or watch a movie that ain't modern 2010-202X shit or what is the latest TV-series. They go into a hobby - cry "buuhuu sexism racism" and want to change it. Then they go to the next hobby, interest.Got damn even we had faggots going into goregrind, pornogrind and other kind of obscure genre to cry about sexism and racism in fucking gorenoise. Its all bullshit, lies and made up belief by lefty women that are up in their own asses like fat acceptance activist and other kind of mental illness caused by extreme propaganda!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vI887JgydCY
>>533183035>DarkspearBBC?
>>533185807Retail is way too gay now. They want to shut us down because we're non-compliant with globohomo. They can't compete.
>>533191344fix your fucking life man
>>533182904>Also side note is captcha taking forever to load for anyone else?Stop posting cringe and it speeds up.
>>533181832Blizzard is not really a game dev company. It's profitmaxxing company.More than 2/3 of their employees are not related to game development.Just a bunch of freeloader mouths busy looking how to squeeze more money out of their crusty dried up franchises.None of the people who created those franchises work for Blizzard anymore.
hey wow refugees i've been having a lot of fun playing ragnarok private servers and guild wars reforgedjust sayin'>>533190800jagex is pozzed, actively hates the pvp/clanning community, and banned me for multi boxing legit
>>533191759That’s actually kino to hear Ragnarok is still enjoyed, even if I was fairly lost in what to do in that game. I’m more hands on or action oriented like Monster Hunter, I don’t really grasp jrpgs and all but that one was pretty nice.
>>533191904the private server i've been playing has like 1500-3k online at all times not including people afk merching. i was surprised how active it is. same rates as the server i used to play back in the day too. >even if I was fairly lost in what to do in that gameits not nearly as bad in the era of 2nd monitors and wikis
>>533192040Let me guess...you’re playing on the server where an anon from 4chan reported an exploit, and the server dev went on an insane witch hunt afterward when it came to that player both ingame and in the threads? Lmfao out loud
>>533192240no idea i don't read /v/, what server?lol the last mmorpg private server i played on the server owner scammed the playerbase for a bunch of money for "server fees" to get xir's balls cut off with
>>533191527who the fuck are you senpai?
>>533192465Never mind I'm wrong , though you were talking about Guild Wars private server carry on
>>533183344It's still up because nothing is going to happen about it. The media and blizzard influencers are in a circle jerk trying to get people to stop playing. They went after a hong-kong based payment processor that was taking donations, because they couldn't go after the actual Twow company in Russia/Kazakhstan. Donations have been down for a while, the client is still downloadable and everything else is running fine. My guess is that there will be a switch to a different payment processor and things will continue as normal. >>533183550Actually come to think of it, it's kinda weird how paladins have as much bubble uptime as retail wow. I've had the impression that turtle is made by people salty that their gay off-meta specs were shit in classic and who wanted them to be OP.
>>533184786all they had to do was not host their servers where jewish american lawyers could reach them, something they fucking should have learned with nostalrius.meanwhile, warmane owners have become literal millionaires and their server has been up and running since like 2009 (molten) and they are still selling shadowmourne for 150$
Btw any recent news about VValcraft?
Pride. "Profesional" devs will never admit that amateur fans can do a better job than they do.
>>533192671>I've had the impression that turtle is made by people salty that their gay off-meta specs were shit in classic and who wanted them to be OP.Basically yes they cater to furries who wanted feral druids to not be dog shit garbage in vanilla and TBC, and fags who want ret paladins to be the best DPS and PVP in the game (in turtle they are). Ret pallies were nothing in actual vanilla. In TBC they were a joke pvp spec. But in turtle they are gods.Oh yea, I remember why I was Alliance on turtle - there are no Horde Paladins.
Why do these retarded server admins always doxx themselves? Literally just get the servers in some country like iceland or whatever.
>>533181832Turtle wow sucked. People just buy and sell accounts for Pennies.
>>533181832EVERYONE MUST PLAY BLIZZARDS LGBT TRANS RETAIL VERSION WITH FORCED GAY SEX AND TRANS HOLIDAYS
>>533183656It was about this:>The games industry makes more money than the music industry and the film industry combinedSome on the radical left smelled influence and money they didn't have full control over yet
>>533185433Based Tauren Druid brother.
>Friendly reminder Van Cleeft did nothing wrong
>>533190800I was a Tibia guy.. 26 years ago
>>533181832110% of the content was developed, written, created et all BY BLIZZARD.How dumb do you have to be to not understand protecting your intellectual property? Like can I just go into your house and take all your shit because I feel like I can make better use of it? Of course not. If you're gonna private server it up, expect to be shut down. You have virtually zero rights in this regard. No argument either.Also niggers bown down to my IRL Amani War Bear.
>>533192561ah im playing gw on the official servers>>533193628you know what mmo's truly forgotten? asheron's call.
>>533191759Comfy playing ccRO right now, gravity can eat shit and die
>>533181832Homage to Daniel Hackerman from the chinz
>>533194391DransikDeloriaPriston TaleLineageAll those moments will be lost in time
>>533194477Remember on the Tibia server I played someone hacked it and gave himself GM powers and summoned two demons outside the bank(strongest monster in game) and went on a killing spree, resulting in the entire 12 servers of the game being shut down for a week.
>>533194519i used to host kalonline servers, so much nostalgia for some of those games
>>533184528Suck my dick. I don't give a fuck about "muh society collapse" incel bullshit. Let me grieve my little Turtle in peace you stupid Dipshit.
>>533181832No way they shut down. It would be absurd for them to lose almost a decade's worth of development. They can just find some piracy-friendly jurisdiction to host in.>>533190278The ping from NA already sucks. It's the 1.12 client so who cares. They also have Chink and South America servers, so the SA hosting could be stopgap. I was looking forward to dusting off my 60 there but if they are serious about their policy of cleaning up unplayed lower level chars I might have lost 1200 gold stored on a lvl 25 which would make me reluctant to go back out of sheer salt.
>>533183882i quit around this time.
>>533181832>/v/ slop being openly left on /pol/yeah blizzard winning a lawsuit is so politics and society related, where are the mods???
>>533195570Relax faggot.The legal system is a part of politics. And Blizzard has pride month celebrations in their versions of WoW so it's very political to discuss non-pozzed alternatives.
>>533195477>interrupting a BLM in game protestLMAO what the actual fuck>expires 2120ROFL
Turtle added ok content but completely butchered class balance and PvP because the devs never played the game at level 60.>>533194519Lineage 2 has as many if not more private servers as WoW and with more players even.
pop
>>533197344what's the last time you've played turdle? they made a fuckton of changes in the past year and introduced some kind of pvp gear system. i haven't played in a year but class balance was pretty okay back then imo. the problem is both pallies and shamans were OP but shamans easier to fuck shit up with, which eventually drew all the serious pvp players to horde. so the real balance problem was less about classes and more factions. now they have arenas. hopefully it doesn't shut down, it was the best version of WoW i've ever played.
If the servers are in Russia they can't do shit because sanctions lel
Meanwhile my dead server outlived the thing before lh, lh and now this. Haha
>>533202994yeah but playing at 300 ping is gay
>>533181832because turtle wow devs are not gay or trans
>>533185461Final Fantasy 11 is the greatest game of all time.
>>533202264Like a year and half ago. I check the updates and chat with some people who still play and PvP is still as atrocious. The devs continue to play favorites with classes while being clueless when it comes to the game in general. They still haven't fixed that trainwreck of "war mode" either, with the flagging abuse just turning it into a self-griefing tool.While the team making new content is cool, their "balancing" people are just a circlejerk of retards from the same guild who constantly power trip for their own benefit.There was a running joke about returning to stock 1.12 being the best thing they could do for balance.
>>533181832>Why don't these retards just hire the Turtle WoW admins to make the game worth playing again? Because they’re probably all white men.
>>533204366>>533205373The most vocal and active dev is a retarded emo turk who goes into meltdowns whenever he's (justly) criticized for randomly destroying something. There's also a gay kraut.
>>533181832Twow general chat/trade chat is so fuckin chuddy.I swear half the player base are /pol/chuds
>>533205486Just play WoW Warmane. They'll never be shut down since they're in Russia. It's still the biggest pserver by far. There's also of plenty other games you can try, retro MMOs I mean. Ultima OnlineFinal Fantasy 11Guild Wars 1EverQuestTry some of those and chill out. Most have private servers too
>>533181832Someone should sue Blizzard for allowing money laundering via gold farming. That would be fucking hilarious
>>533205764They have very powerful lawyers which is fucking hilarious
>>533205816Clearly not powerful enough to get anything serious done
>>533181832>facing shutdownHow? Isn't twow physically hosted and run outside of the jurisdiction of the US? How will this court order possibly be enforced?
>>533206119It's hosted in europe and run by russians. I don't think it's shutting down but donations are no longer allowed
>>533206119They unironically moved their servers to Tel Aviv a couple months ago. Nothing will happen.
