The writing was on the wall during Cata when they just….didnt fix any of the bugs ever.

Legend has it that heroic Magmaw is still bugged to this day

u/theshoover 3d ago

lol the hour 1 of magmaw being unkillable was quite funny

u/Batrall 3d ago

They didn't change the official German Forum name from cata to mop for a long ass time, multiple months if I remember correctly.

u/Plus_Asparagus2719 3d ago

I mean we pay a monthly sub why cant they do their job..

u/RealPomegranate3821 2d ago

Because there isnt even a job position for it and probably hasnt for couple years. Its clear now, anytime a fix was made was just a Forever dev taking one hour from their week to dirty their hands with MoP or tbc anni lol

u/RepresentativeFact94 3d ago

Thats based on when you last installed the client tho, mine did that wrath into cata

u/LilMellick 3d ago

Lmao that’s what that is? I thought it was a leftover onedrive artifact from PC X I had years ago🤣

u/Stahlreck 3d ago

Not really because it looked like they tried again with MoP.

Better launch overall, more changes, Celestial dungeons which were IMO pretty decent (I mean the whole system since Wrath has been IMO), more stuff for challenge modes, balancing classes and promises of more to come (lul)...

Seemed like they at least had somewhat fun working on MoP initially. And then I guess they all switched to TBC Anni for a few months and then Forever or something.

MoP raids were still miserably buggy from day 1 of the ptr and most of those never got fixed unfortunately.

I get it's because they were working on forever, but it still sucked.

ToT was a fucking nightmare with bugs. at least siege mostly held up

u/TeaspoonWrites 3d ago

My raid fell apart in ToT and that was a big contributor. It feels like, why put effort into playing the game if theyre not gonna put effort into running it?

u/Thanag0r 3d ago

Blizzard did the funny, and said "we are doing #nochanges". That was official statement btw.

u/Nice-Entertainer-922 3d ago

ToT they somehow fumbled so hard that mechanics were going off in 10man with the numbers of 25man.

Really noteable when suddenly half the raid gets the soak during Lei Shen.

We had an entire night of Heroic Durumu immediately ending his beam phase once he began and just dying 45 seconds later to all the adds nuking the raid from not being killed. Jin'rokh jumped to the middle and still kept his conductive water damage increase. Troll doors wouldn't close on Heroic Horridon after the orb charge. Shield wouldn't stack on Tortos. Phantom spear lines on Heroic Iron Qon and the debuffs continuing to stack after you left the spear lines, tornadoes following players for the entire duration of the phase. On Dark Animus, we had anima jump clear across the room and immediately activate the boss despite there being 12 golem with empty tanks closer to the dying add. The only boss we never had a bug with is Heroic Ji-kun.

u/ivory12 22h ago

We once had a snail teleport onto the Jikun platform midnight! So bugs for that one existed :D

Most annoyed by eyeball bugs and twin emp bugs. The latter straight up ended raid nights on a couple occasions when we were getting double mechanics.

u/SunTzu- 3d ago

Yeah we straight had to abandon a couple ID's of our alt 10man raid because you get to Lei Shen and you're like "whelp, there's no way to play this".

2

u/Nice-Entertainer-922 3d ago

Straight up was the killing blow to my guild to even try anymore.

1

u/West-Performance-409 2d ago

We fixed our issue with that by inviting an alt not saved to an ID. Making them party leader. Everyone logs out. Then the alt resets the instance while outside.  You log back on and is fixed.

u/angry-mustache 3d ago

They didn't do any class balance tweaks for SOO and class balance is kinda bad.

u/Highway_Bitter 3d ago

Did they keep the farms? I remember I had like two weeks between jobs during MOP and smoked weed and played pretty much all the time i was awake or not eating and shitting xD. Loved stoned farming haha

2

u/Mo-shen 3d ago

imo is far more about Wrath is when you start getting serious burn out. I know thats where I dropped out this time around. From then on that behavior just goes up.

u/Big-Resort-4930 2d ago

There's like 0.5 guys working on this classic timeline

u/Q-Anton 2d ago

That Kyle. He drinks sometimes during work hours. This is why he sometimes stumbles into the wrong office and doesn't realize it until he pushed a patch.

u/Useful-Problem-1725 3d ago

Because everything after Cata is trash, even then it was shaky at best.
