People have to consider the costs to undertake such a project. Maintaining and devoting resources to a classic server would just distract Blizzard. They would have to pay people to maintain the servers, hire more GMs, hire more…

Ah, once more the historical revisionists claim that vanilla WoW was nothing but sheer utopia, whereas the current version is naught but pure trash foisted upon us by the evil corporate overlords at Blizzard.

You know I hope everyone gets what they want, Neckbeards and all others included. It's just a matter of whether it's viable for more than a year to offer as a service. IF this was a server guaranteed to be populated for a few yea…

The importance for players - maybe, but is there enough money in it that's worth the effort for the dev studios?
That's the real question for legacy servers.
If money > effort of cost doing it = maybe
Old code has exploits a…

As was stated in another thread discussing the downfall of a vanilla classic server.
I would definitely pick up WoW again if they released a Classic server with different/harder/rarer or anything rulesets. RS Ironman and Deadman are popular hits now…

I can tell you that Bliz would get a lot of subs back if they released old glory servers.
They can even mess with loot tables /death penalties etc. to make it interesting trust me I would be all over it.
I bet if they released a Vanilla classic server with harder to get loot tables, and possibly adding more loot idk. I can definitely see a lot backing that.
Even make the mobs harder.
Look to RS and other games to see the paths they went.
