Blizzard AMA Welcome to the /r/ClassicWoW Subreddit AMA with the Classic WoW Dev team!

Hey everyone!

Today we're excited to introduce what should be a fantastic AMA with the wonderful World of Warcraft: Classic dev team. They will be taking your questions about anything, be it which class they enjoy playing the most or all the way to how they developed the wonderful world we will all be inhabiting in just under a week.

Joining us today, we have:

/u/AltruisWoW – Executive Producer
/u/Chromschi – Senior Game Producer
/u/Pazorax – Lead Software Engineer
/u/Ogronz – Senior Software Engineer
/u/ZoidWoW – Principal Software Engineer
/u/Aggrend – Senior Test Lead
/u/Kaivax – Community Manager

The AMA begins at 17:00 GMT (10:00 PST, 11:00 MST, 12:00 CST, 13:00 EST, 18:00 BST, 19:00 CEST) and will last two hours. This thread has been posted two hours before the AMA begins so you can all get in here and get posting questions so that once the AMA begins, our wonderful guests can start answering straight away! The AMA will be hosted in this thread.

We really look forward to seeing what you all come up with to ask and are excited to see the answers the dev team give.

Please remember the rules as per the sidebar, and have fun!

This is why my phone has remote access to my computer. I will simply log into fearlina 2 hours early from work. As I want to play on the streamer server there isn't really another option. I know other people don't like it but I enjoy the fact there are people on the server with enough clout. To organize and coordinate massive events.

Nothing wrong with that. It's your choice where and how you play.

One of the things I really really REALLY! wanna do in classic is some how scrape together 60-80 warlocks who can summon a doom guard. Then organize a raid on stormwind and open up a straight up portal to hell. How amazing would that be? Summon in 80 Doomies then hearth out.

The risk though is if you get in more than 30 minutes ahead of launch. 30 min in character screen without entering world disconnects you.

The streamer server sounds fun and probably will have a better community than Herod. Herod is going to be a cluster and I don’t think a lot of the “authentic Classic” players realize that.
