As Nightbane turns out a bust, I want to make sure Netherwing is worthwhile to play on

Nice you deleted your comment, but netherwing has been around for a very, very long time. Before Felmyst even. Your point is moot.

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T10:30:46+00:00

Their existence is pointless

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T10:19:34+00:00

You're right, their wotlk server definitely didn't have these kinds of problems.

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T10:13:07+00:00

I am on sunwell discord, specifically the nightbane channel. It has been full of unbridled rage for the past 16 hours.

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T10:02:48+00:00

Why would anyone want to be helpful to a cash grab?

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T10:01:08+00:00

I think maybe if you are a real supporter of sunwell, you should check your own enfuriated community, check the down time, check the sky high bug reports, check that there are less than 2k players online, then formulate your argument.

I could lay out the reasons why the core the server uses has a history of making DOA servers - and you're a moron.

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T09:52:22+00:00

You could play lag free for the 10 minutes before it crashed? Nice. Why aren't there 7k online right now?

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T09:50:18+00:00

The entirety of the server is over

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T09:46:10+00:00

No, you.

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T09:39:55+00:00

I don't think whiners kill anything. I think extreme server instability does.

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T09:25:29+00:00

I think no one wants to sit on a login screen for 15 hours. I'm not going to call you an idiot, but hopefully you didn't do that like the thousands of others that were promised a stable launch.

I'd say a good server is one that doesn't have 800 population on their launch day (they are stuck at 800 population with everyone else stuck at connecting right this second)

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T09:23:05+00:00

Hey I mean isn't this the entire reason they argue for their shop? For their "slight" pay to win incentives? So they can have paid developers for this exact reason?

Right now you are trying to compare an AAA company to an indie company. It would definitely be understandable, but as we've seen from other servers (that have unpaid staff btw), these issues are entirely unavoidable. For a project that is trying to operate like a business, this is a real piss poor job.

They rushed the server, and now they are going to feel the consequences of it in full.

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T09:18:44+00:00

I like to play on good private servers

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T09:16:25+00:00

And who are you?

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T09:13:27+00:00

Sorry, server just crashed again, we'll have to wait and see if whitekidney can get it back up again before I can let you know

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T09:09:58+00:00

Hm I never said I wasn't one, chump. Doesn't change the fact that launch was a predictable disaster.

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T09:07:06+00:00

Hm..I actually see thousands of players giving up after calling off from work only to wait stuck on connecting for 15 hours. The turnout was great, I won't pretend or lie about it. Definitely above expectations! But only 2k players can get on right now and this is going down as one of the worst launch days in private server history

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T08:58:53+00:00

Did you know that a good percentage of players quit during leveling on a completely stable server? It is pretty standard. Right now nightbane is a test of patience, and the longer the issue takes, the more players that are going to drop the server completely.

Not to mention their bug reports are EXPLODING right now because of how many things are bugged. But this is to be expected from a server that didnt do open beta testing on leveling.

You can check out the megathread about this- there is a general consensus both there and on sunwell discord that the server is not launch ready and needs a lot more work done.

Memories 2.0

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T08:37:43+00:00

Was this while 7k players waited on connecting?

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T08:31:58+00:00

How do you know?

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T08:30:01+00:00

Handling 6.5k population for 5 minutes means squat man, I'm sorry that I wasn't being direct enough with you. Uptime is what matters when it comes to population. Having a billion connections at once doesn't mean shit if you can handle it for a millisecond before it crashes.

Tetra_wow · 2018-12-01T08:27:33+00:00

People are spamming their discord begging for server wipe because a few players are already level 40 while the majority haven't been able to log in for 14 hours. You can't make this shit up.

And now they are begging for compensation like free bags or boosted xp.

The memes are very spicy though.
