World of Warcraft Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Zen_lyn Zenlyn (@Zen_lyn) reported

    How can we get honor gear before the season starts if i did bg's for 9.5 hours yesterday and got 8.5k honor? @WarcraftDevs Mercenary mode is NEEDED for classic bg's atleast for now. You can remove it in a month or two Sitting 1-2 hour queues is the problem. Faction imbalance :(

  • Ziqoftw C9 Ziqo (@Ziqoftw) reported

    Flag doesn't give bonus honor in eots anymore, guess its to discourage the hostage bg premades which were a problem. Another problem is the fact that u CAN'T GET HONOR AS HORDE. FIX THE QUE PLEASE @WarcraftDevs

  • TronTokenTrader Tron Token Trader (@TronTokenTrader) reported

    @Warcraft fix the auction houses already... its been a month that they dont work

  • Vengerwow Venger (@Vengerwow) reported

    @WarcraftDevs Think Arena season tomorrow is very early in general, with many not even at 70. But the bigger issue is only one faction has access to honor atm.

  • silasftw Silasftw (@silasftw) reported from Stockholms Kommun, Stockholm

    @Ziqoftw @WarcraftDevs Almost like it come as a surprise that it’s like 70-80% horde in pvp :P this has been the same problem at every priv server. Solution is to be able to queue as the other faction I guess.

  • TronTokenTrader Tron Token Trader (@TronTokenTrader) reported

    @Warcraft fix the auction houses

  • TronTokenTrader Tron Token Trader (@TronTokenTrader) reported

    @Warcraft why are the auction houses still broken

  • devilslettuce00 Choosing Sides, Getting Organized (@devilslettuce00) reported

    @roodfloug @maximum @WarcraftDevs you just said you are happy you gave up on it? yet you here basically stalking your Ex's insta, how do u not see the problem lol

  • CSGO_random stealthmode (@CSGO_random) reported

    @Ziqoftw @WarcraftDevs Yeah blizzard fix math KEKW just create alliance bots to reduce que time

  • bswagz88 Brandon 🦅🩹 (@bswagz88) reported

    Going back through #Legion to get class mounts just highlights how incredibly broken that expansion was and STILL is. Bug after bug, particularly for Druids. And then once I unlock Lunarwing, I have to visit a barber to apply it? Wtf? @Warcraft @WarcraftDevs @WatcherDev

  • Kakkarotftw Moose (@Kakkarotftw) reported

    @side_questress @Warcraft I don’t see a problem?

  • Prisma_Lin Bisexual Disaster Panda💙💜💖 (@Prisma_Lin) reported

    Omg... Bellular said it "World of Warcraft jumped the shark" And He's right! its sucha disconnect between game and story.

  • Riiispetto Riiispetto (@Riiispetto) reported

    @Warcraft any chance you guys are looking into the consecration threat problem

  • Monkeslol123 Monkes (@Monkeslol123) reported

    @Ziqoftw @WarcraftDevs The que is not broken, I am not sure the solution, but im not sure it’s mercenary mode. I think if they just make it so horde vs horde like in arena that would be better for bgs

  • drnaope Erik (@drnaope) reported

    @Ziqoftw @WarcraftDevs they cant fix the queue, its a player caused issue since everybody rolled horde - the eots nerf makes 0 sense tho

  • roberttheartis2 Mikasasconcubine (@roberttheartis2) reported

    @justnonso_ Shush. I wasn’t comparing the degree of their flops. Just how they flopped in the same way. No character investment. But yeah. Warcraft had better character development than MK. But the same problem.

  • JhekunKern Reakd (@JhekunKern) reported

    @WarcraftDevs any plans to fix 1h horde queue time into ally premade in tbc? such as mercenary mode?

  • Nyndoke Sang-Nyn 🧠 (@Nyndoke) reported

    @Ziqoftw @WarcraftDevs Honor gain way too low. Fix your trash game @WarcraftDevs

  • btoth735 bimyouX (@btoth735) reported

    @Ziqoftw @WarcraftDevs Well, i cant really imagine that the problem would happen in reverse at this point, if streamers would boost alliance it wouldnt make alliance super dominant like how horde is rn and i really cant imagine even you thinking that. Also this answer was pretty toxic :(.

  • JNLewis Josh Lewis 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@JNLewis) reported

    @Warcraft Pls fix the AH. Pls. I need to buy cloth.

  • koltec1 koltec (@koltec1) reported

    @T_Ray10 @Wowhead @WarcraftDevs Wow it's like there wasn't even a pandemic or wildfires where blizzard is if you think about it it's not really that long it's annoying Yes but all game companies are having issues releasing games after having to work from home

  • Ziqoftw C9 Ziqo (@Ziqoftw) reported

    @btoth735 @WarcraftDevs Lol I play ally too just like plenty of other streamers. People will play what they think is best/most fun. When streaming didn't exist, horde was still the dominant faction in pvp. If everyone goes ally the problem still exists but in reverse, pls just try to use ur brain

  • TronTokenTrader Tron Token Trader (@TronTokenTrader) reported

    @Warcraft fix the auction houses

  • uglymugwempe UglyMugWempe (@uglymugwempe) reported

    @WarcraftDevs Release date or nah? How do you plan to fix your colossal mess? Be transparent.

  • Woolly08 Woolly (@Woolly08) reported

    @PiniponSelvagem @cheersitskatie @Warcraft Well that was rude. What's your problem?

  • Windisawful WIND 🌗 (@Windisawful) reported

    I think I'm going to be another one of the "Weebs" that swaps to @FF_XIV_EN as my main game instead of @Warcraft. I'm tired of going through the cycles of hoping that either the next patch, or expansion will be better and fix all of the problems we have with the game...

  • Infernionwow Infernion (@Infernionwow) reported

    @Ziqoftw @WarcraftDevs Really worrying there hasn’t been any fix or comments on this yet, I feel like a lot of people are getting demotivated or burned out trying to farm this. Not to mention when arena starts and horde players will get clapped with no gear and end up quitting.

  • ZatharoZ ZatharoZ (@ZatharoZ) reported

    @Novalene3 @Warcraft 1 team 2 teams or 3 teams. FIX IT! After months no updates! After months plenty of bugs! After months I paid them every month! After months classic TBC is up and got plenty of updates allready. WTF?
