It's the ultimate Vanilla+
It's hard to make people believe it if they haven't played it, but it's really good.
It's Vanilla World of Warcraft if it was continued to be developed in the spirit of the original release, in a second timeline.
It's signature contribution is a list of levelling "challenges" you can select on character creation, allowing you to select one or multiple challenges like Hardcore, reduced xp gain, relying on only white and grey items, using only items you craft, etc.
It has 3 servers: the OG RPPvE server that's been running 7+ years, a PvP server, and a new RPPvE server that launched about 8 months ago.
New Race + Class combinations.
Goblins for Horde and High Elves for Alliance.
Redone talent trees for every class (literally everyone loves them).
Expanded areas and quests in levelling zones.
New levelling zones, like Northwind, Grim Reaches, Thalassian Highlands, Gilneas, several islands, and Moonwhisper Coast.
10 new dungeons across the level ranges. Extra world bosses. New Raids.
Old raid and dungeon content also remixed.
New Survival profession to run alongside professions like Cooking.
PvP ranks redone so it's no longer for lifeless honor grinding.
Very interactive GMs who will show up and turn a character into a broom for abusing world chat.
Zero bots and gold selling.

Anyway, I'm heartbroken over the news that TurtleWoW has to shutdown because Blizzard crushed them in the legal battle.

Look, the TurtleWoW masters themselves sent the message about the shutdown. They were forced into a settlement with Blizzard's legal team.

Yeah the early custom content was pretty rough. Especially the cut blizzard maps that they re-added. Giligams isle was fucking atrocious to navigate.
>>
>>737218772
>>737218925
Gilneas was probably my favorite new zone alongside Moonwhisper. Balor pissed me off.
>>
>>737218869
I started playing on the new RPPvE server about 3 weeks ago and the highest peak I saw was 7k-ish. It peaks on EU hours. But when the news broke about the settlement with Blizzard the numbers dropped fast and after the 7 days of waiting for the TurtleWoW devs to comment, it peaked at only 2k players today, now down to 750 with most people permanently logging off.

Stormwrought Castle and Dragonmaw Retreat was Xbox HUEG but man I had a lot of fun going through it. Nu-Blizz could never make anything that good.
>>
>>737218910
Of course, you're playing there and you're going to believe this bs. Good monkey.
The truth is, there is another wow private circle based in russia that exist for 20 years, wow circle. And Blizzard can't do shit about it because servers located in russia and all staff living in russia.
Only a retard would believe in "blizzard force us". The reason is money. This server has competitors, and the admins have moved to a new project where there is more money for their good programmers.
>>
>>737219016
>Balor pissed me off.
Even as a druid the amount of swimming was missing me off. The theme of the zone was epic and stormwraught keep is probably my favourite wow dungeon of all time. But they completely over did it with the swimming.

I'll probably come back to do all the quests before the server shits down.

Epoch and ascension are quite literally next. They aren’t going to stop shutting down servers now that the courts have ruled heavily in their favor. It’s over for all private server trannies. Jews one, you lose.
>>
lol lmao even.
What did people expect? They were @ blizzard on social media and had a huge paid ad campaign advertising themselves as the "real classic wow". Of course Blizz was going to win this. Wasn't there paid subs as well? What did they expect to happen?
You can't be doing that if you want to keep a private classic server up.

>>
>>737221978
This is false. There are tons of servers that blizzard ignores. Turtle went full retard and started poking the bear and now they're dead in the water. Blizzard has stated before that they intentionally don't fuck with private servers unless they start doing dumb shit like this.
>>
>>737221849
Nost didn’t do any of that and they were still shut down. People here think there’s some secret trick to keeping private servers up but there isn’t. They are by definition illegally using Blizzards IP. They are well within their right to shut down any and all servers at any time even if they aren’t monetized or advertised heavily because it’s there IP. With Microsoft at the helm it’s basically over for any all and all private servers outside of China or other places where American courts can’t easily reach
>>
>>737222043

Yes, this is how things work in our ghey world.
As soon as something isn't a botted jank pserver abyss and is actually quality and fun, the Pride-Event zombie Corporation that hasn't done a single good thing for gaming since 2004 will Shut It Down.

Nigga I don't play turtlewow but if someone plays games and grinds on characters only for some sort of end result (that's unachievable since patches keep taking your progress away with new content after it) and not for the gameplay itself, there's something deeply wrong with you.

Exfuckingactly. Russians admins can host their server on any fucking machine in the world. But for some reason, anons who post here think that only Blizzard wants money, and the server admins are angels who do this out of passion to the game and don't care about money. WHAT?

It's a MMO. All online service games progress will be erased at some point. You have to cherish the moments you spent together. I stopped playing last year, but it was a great server with great custom zones and dungeons.

The grind is the game. All wow is good for is twinking out a rogue at 29 and ganking hordies question in hillsbrad foothills the whole day on a fresh server

acting as though private servers getting shut and losing your characters is any different than retail launching a new expansion is a meme
your character as you knew it is gone and being able to log into something wearing the skin of your old character isnt the same
>>
>>737216763
It's the reality when playing private servers, they are transient. They are incredibly transient because once they're popular and have a high pop they generally get C&D'd, stay on low pop, or have cancerous monetization.
>>
>>737222860
to be fair, blizzard has been working pretty hard to remove all character-specific attributes of the game with the warband and account-wide stuff. I've played the same warrior for about 19 years now but the degree to which that means anything has been shrinking pretty quickly these last few years

warriors were OP for the first like two patches of the game until they nerfed the fucking shit out of bloodthist and slam, and then they were gutter tier awful until 1.12.1 wherein they are utterly useless in pvp without a team, and lose to mages and rogues without world buffs
>>
>>737216763
victim of their own success
if they had stayed small, banned the chink retards how they should have Day 1 when the floodgates opened, and stayed off social media, they would have been able to carry on forever
instead they tried to become a multi-megaserver host and even tried to contact blizzard directly and indirectly, drawing attention to themselves

as always, it is the hubris of private server staff that leads to their end of service

I knew this shit would be over soon when they added 'fresh' and pvp servers

Balance changed a lot throughout patches but it's not like anything prior to 1.12.1 is playable (to my knowledge). The thing about nu wow meta with people playing old expansions, which nobody should care about, is too many bosses die in 30 seconds and it favors warriors a lot who press recklessness and kill the boss before it ends and no class is balanced to compete with that.

yes, warriors are the best class in the game when kill timers are short
when you take world buffs out of the equation things equalize across warrior mage rogue
the issue with everyone thinking "WOW WARRIORS ARE SO OP IN VANILLA" is that it's only looking at the extremes of pve performance
theyre dogshit dungeon tanks, unironically the worst
theyre utter dogshit in world pvp and utterly useless on their own and outside of womboing someone with a sword spec no competent player loses to a warrior in a 1v1 - arguably only useful to put mortal strike on shit and tab pummel people
people looking at top 1% of guilds stacking warriors and worldbuffs when 90% of people who play the class are utter retards who dont know how to press heroic strike properly is how shit like SOD happened where warrior largely wasnt touched and it resulted in them being utter dogshit compared to the ABSURD buffs other classes got, even ones like warlock and mage that didnt need it

Turtle staff soft-banned me from doing pvp on the primary server vs warmode flagged players, because I was doing it 'too much' and camping 'too much'.

It got to a point where if I even logged in on my twinks to hunt warmode lowbies, they would teleport me to a high level zone, because guilds of carebears would mass report if I logged on. Mind you warmode is 100% voluntary.

I didn't even kill quest givers, just camped a bit, and everyone reported me because I was 'preventing them from finishing a quest', like they couldn't just kill 10 monsters to get the same exp. Soft, whiny, carebear shit.

I also killed several hardcore characters by waiting in places where they would get flagged through normal means if they weren't paying attention, leading to lots of drama and then an eventual reworking of "HC" flagging system till it was foolproof, just for retards.

So, I'm glad they are shutting down. The staff were cliquey soft faggots and so were the people playing on the servers.

I dunno, anon. Numerous times I saw world chat shit talking minorities, gay liberals, and shit. Those same people were still in world later that day or on the next.

>>
>>737225262
they were THE most dominant class of vanilla. Classic WoW proved this, since every guild that went there just went 20+ warriors with world buffs for raid through Naxx. SoD did have some kind of 'effort' on Blizzard's part to fix this, but twow did it way way better.
>>
>>737225921
I never cared enough about class tiers to know how it changes with slower guilds but with more casual/retarded guilds that take 5 minutes for a boss nolifers kill in 20 seconds, I imagine warlock or maybe mage becomes #1. Especially since you can't fuck up a "just press shadow bolt" "rotation". Which is closer to what happened in 2006.

Warrior dominance in 1.12.1 is something that came to be with private servers. Guilds didn't spam warrior in 2006 and the class wasn't considered to do good damage until naxx.

>>
>>737226220
nobody gave a fuck about wpvp, it was a bad idea that didn't work out of the gate, everyone knows this but you apparently. And they're closer to the upper end of levelling classes than the bottom, not that it mattered in Classic since everyone just dungeon spammed, or worse, got boosted in dungeons with gold purchased from chink gold sellers, since over half of every server was just bots. Classic WoW was hell.

>>737226275
the most successful guilds with the fastest cleartimes in bwl / aq / naxx all had correctly played stacks of warriors

guilds didn't 'spam warriors' because any warrior that was any good immediately progressed beyond their shitty dadguild to an actual raiding guild that valued them, leading to a perceived lack of warriors in casual guilds who underperformed (due to being played improperly)

lots of people were optimizing the game back then, but it wasn't totally open common knowledge
>>
>>737226361
>people are gloating at you

You mean Blizzard has deployed the shills to minimize and blowback like when Nostalrius shut down. This is something that Blizzard obviously has to be good at these days since they keep doing really stupid shit like

Yeah, but by and large, you could get away with a whole fuckload more on Turtle than you ever would on a modern Blizz server.

It's not because you're talking about the social paradigm that occurred during 2 completely different periods of time. Warriors were never considered to be the dominant class until the private server scene came around, that is to say during Nost.

Get payment processor to cooperate, follow the money, acquire bank accounts of the people with transaction history with the company, hire some PIs to double check and inquire, contact a few embassies if they're not natives and slam a C&D, the fact they got closed down tells you everything.

I'm not saying it was better or worse than blizzard. Blizzard sucks. Turtle moderation also sucked, but in a different and stupid way.

I can hate them both, it's allowed to hate them both.

I have/had 3 60's on Turtle and had plenty of good times, but like many I got fed up with the clique shit and weird moderation.

I was mod-abused numerous times in many memorable ways over the years of on an off playing turtle, because I went out of my way to 'cultivate' novel experiences for other players. Any time anyone or any zone experiences minor inconvenience they all resort to mass reporting, and with blizzard we know what happens, but it also happened on Turtle, where their retard mods perceived any zone disruption or 'event' as something to be crushed, rather than encouraged.

Oh and Shenna also sold items to chinks, which was their grift for awhile. Their chinese servers will probably stay up I bet with new hosting. It's all P2W there.
>>
>>737226609
There's stuff about guilds bashing their heads on cthun and they didn't even know about consumables. Classicbabs on the other hand swipe their credit cards for gold so they can spam all the most expensive consumables on molten core and complain the game is unplayable without them.
>>
>>737221837
I think they've tried already. could be wrong though. either way I hope none of you retards give blizzard any money because they're Classic Plus experience is fucking paltry from what Ive seen.

People were keyboard turning and clicking, using suboptimal gear choices, and even consumables weren't something most people bothered with beyond mana potions. Shit, even warrior stacking took some time for post-vanilla private servers to figure out.

>>737227481
The real problem is and has always been blizzard being a shit company with incentives to never fix the issue. People talk about the bot problem as some mythical unsolvable tech problem when in reality
>blizzard has a financial stake to let bots shit on the game because they pay for doing so
>they switched to automated moderation ages to to reduce costs
>meanwhile bot farms have human operators that supervise the bots far more closely than blizzard supervises their own game. And they actually have a financial stake to make their farm work
Alternatively, you could blame the players for not refusing to pay until blizzard fixes the issue.

That doesn't change the point. Boomer nerds treated wow boss strategies like national military secrets and they absolutely competed to who kill bosses the fastest. Only because they took x10 as long as modern guilds doesn't mean they didn't keep track.

>>737227871
these are the kind of people who would claim pre-nerf cthun was "mathematically impossible" meanwhile you have people running around in dungeon tier and blues
>>
>>737227871
The fact you even know they were one of the best and had word firsts prove there were people back then caring about min maxing, clear times, the meta, etc. They just sucked at it because it was few people who hadn't been at it that long.
>>
>>737227871
Excellent summary. I'm not sure they they are arguing you on this.
>>
>>737227871
>they were able to clear to cthun with garbage makeshift gear
so I guess they were pretty good then?
nice way to dumpster yourself retard
>>
>>737227991
People kept track of world firsts and server firsts. That's all anyone gave a shit about. You are arguing against an actual video of what was one of the best guilds in the world not even bothering with consumables.

this is from the perspective of a male night elf priest who clicks their buttons and keyboard turns around who was likely someone carried through all content by far more competent players

keybinds were a new things in mmos since the original design philosophy was about moving the mouse quickly and clicking accurately as the primary designator of skill - see runescape, everquest, lineage and a dozen other mmos.

>keyboard turning, backpedalling

for most pve situations you want to backpedal and keyboard turn. a lot of noobs here who only watched a few pvp montages and think they know how to efficiently play the game. over the years wow was datamined so items were discovered, tracked and new strats appeared. back then nobody was tracking this stuff yet, thotbott appears around tbc.

It doesn't matter where the servers were hosted. Even if they were hosted in fucking North Korea, they would still have had to take them down to avoid legal consequences for those of them living in countries blizzard can touch (ie every single Dev except torta)

Not to mention they were the best dps by far, while also bringing considerable raid utility, since any decent warrior can equip shield, taunt and shield wall to save the raid for some time.

no, dickhead they're going to agree to take down the server regardless of where it is hosted which by the way is exactly what happened. Blizzard don't go to the server host and order them to shut it down, they went for the devs and turtle wow organisation and made them do it

>>737228876
Good to hear that. So the Warmane owner is a millionaire living in Russia now. Good luck trying to shut down Warmane.

TWoW was stupid enough to have American members. They should have just fired them officially and kept it running

>>737228793
Plenty of them. Maybe not now; they'll all decry blizzard and switch to epoch or warmane or something. But when blizzard announces whatever next iteration of classic they're working on, you'll see them all line up for it. The same thing happened with nostalrius shutdown -> classic release.

I tried turtle but it was way too p2w so I dropped it.
For pservers the ones worth playing are Ascension if you want a new experience and Tauri if you want the regular wow experience with no fluffs.
The issue with Ascension is that the clock is ticking for its inevitable shutdown too. For Tauri the only issue is low player numbers and tons of russkies.

For me, the best solution was setting uo my own private server which I can play on and mod to my heart's content without a worry in the world.
There's never a reason to give Blizzard or pservers any money.

A lot of it can be pulled from the client which will likely always be obtainable one way or another since so many people have it downloaded and can upload it somewhere at any time
The server side stuff though is likely lost, the team would be in massive legal shit if they put that stuff out there after losing the case/settling
So we'll have the zones, dungeons, models etc but the scripting for the mobs, quests and whatever else will need to be reimplemented from memory

Yea it's clear that they took a settlement or maybe Blizzard agreed to hire them to work for them. Otherwise, it wouldn't be that hard to keep it up.

Just fire everyone and that absolves them of legal responsibility and host it in Russia.

Do you think blizzard paid them off or something???

>>737231795
Oh nooo not le payment processor! I'd better renew my retail subscription instead
>>
>>737231694
Getting fired doesn't absolve you of past crimes you fucking idiot
they were knowingly working for an illegal organisation and already lost the case
Firing those people and carrying on the server means throwing them under the bus to have their lives ruined by the courts, which apparently the lead dev in Russia was a decent enough person not to do
I guarantee you the settlement was something like: take down the server, don't infringe on our IP ever again, never mod our games ever again, and we'll drop the charges
There is absolutely zero chance that blizzard fucking paid them or hired them. That gives other servers permission and incentive to continue operating.

Ofcourse they did. Why do you think it is gone so promptly with this little resistance and have the same closure date as stormforge? Blizzard dropped some cash on them to make them go away and greedy fucks were all too happy to comply.

>>737231854
If they have no connection anymore with the server then how can they be held legally accountable? Pretty sure someone is gonna relaunch turtle wow from Russia, maybe a brand new team, and they are gonna make huge money from it.

A settlement is something both parties agreed to because Blizzard doesn't want to spend more on legal fees out of vindictiveness and is satisfied just with the server coming down. If Blizzard doesn't think they fulfilled their contributions of the settlement because the server stays up, or a copy obviously originating from the devs pops up, they can continue the lawsuit and have what devs they can get to punished with the fullest extent of the law.

Well that's it then. Someone from a 3rd world country like Romania or Brazil is simply going to relaunch it and Blizz won't be able to do shit since it's entirely separate from the previous twow team

Reminder that playing anything below 4.3.4 client has an active RCE exploit and that's how Pservers push custom content.
Basically as soon as you connect to the server the GMs/Staff of it have full control over your PC.
Patching this exploit will not let you log-in some servers like Warmane for an example as Onyxia relies on the RCE.

Towers of Karazhan doesn't have Balor or Northwind or Grim Reaches but it has karazhan, the islands, new starting zones and so on

Don't know how you'd account for the NPCs and dungeons though, but whatever was used to clone Vanilla could work.
