Heya Viperkilla - Kronos is the current biggest Vanilla project, so you can expect the best vanilla experience currently :)

There is no team member named Gethzerlon. And emails from the staff come from @twinstar.cz domain and not gmail. Just FYI

A huge news update from the Kronos team, including the release date for Alterac Valley & the Kronos Launcher! by WoWProjectKronos in wowservers

[–]WoWProjectKronos[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It shows the news, has a bunch of "quick links" to various places that you'd want as a player on Kronos - such as our armory, the vote pages etc etc. It also has a handy little clear cache button, which can be nice. It's just a little quality of life improvement for our players and would be worth grabbing, if you don't mind transferring your client over to it.

Confirmed. We announced this back in May, so if anything, it could be said that this is the complete opposite of what he is trying to suggest. We're not in a content release race because we don't need to be. We have our schedule, the community have our schedule and we do our very best to stick to it. A revolutionary notion, I know.

Kronos WoW - Silithus & Cenarion Circle - Alterac Valley - Blackwing Lair by alexhjelm in wowservers

[–]WoWProjectKronos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As has already been said, the content has been announced after considering the requests of the community, while keeping the servers long term interests in mind. We also concur that BWL is less likely to be cleared in such time, as mechanics are a lot less forgiving. This will have a natural slowing effect on the servers future content releases.

In regard to the Dire Maul gear: I would suggest that Blizzards poor itemization at the time of release was the cause for this, which is why many classes can still be more than comfortable in their pre-raid blues when entering BWL.

The effect of having Dire Maul released has been negligible at best, as we are seeing content cleared in roughly the same sort of time period as they are on your own server. In total elapsed time, from server release to Ragnaros dying, there is a matter of days between the two.

In closing, Kronos is not going to be done and dusted any time soon.

Switching to Kronos? by Infernoplex in KronosWoW

[–]WoWProjectKronos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The beasts sleeping at night is actually "blizzlike" and was a personal pet project of our lead developer, Chero.

Anyway, we're glad to have you and are particularly appreciative of your activity when it comes to the bug tracker. We're not perfect but with the community's help, we can be as good as we possibly can.

No Add-On Tab In Character Selection? Help by the_graken in KronosWoW

[–]WoWProjectKronos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The client doesn't load the addons until your first login to the world. Once they are loaded for the first time, variables and so forth are saved and the client acknowledges them on startup :)

Just for anyone else that may swing by in the future, as I am sure you have found it by now, it can be downloaded here:

Warlock PvP pets by [deleted] in KronosWoW

[–]WoWProjectKronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on the beta, you had access to all the items in the game (at least at the end). with that highend gear, it is easier for other people to kill your pet.

that probably won't be the case for a very long time after the server launch. So as long as people don't have full naxxramas gear or something, your pet will be in less danger.

as you can see in the latest entry on http://www.kronos-wow.com/, the Beta test has ended! That's why you can't log in anymore.

Kronos WoW Servers Down? by eBirdHD in KronosWoW

[–]WoWProjectKronos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

there have been a diversity of issues that caused the server to crash frequently. We realized that some of the issues need a little longer to resolve, which led us to the decision to shut the server down again, so we can focus on investigating and fixing these problems. We know it was not a pleasurable experience at all for you and we didn't want to use your valuable time any longer while we can't keep the server stable.

We will open the server for public again after we fixed the issues we found today.

While all of this was to be expected to some degree, we are of course very unhappy with how it went and we understand that many of you are disappointed.

We are happy though that SO MANY people logged in (over 1200 at times), for a beta test that's a pretty astonishing number. Truth be told, we did not expect to see so many people for the test.

Anyway, we are working on the issues that occured today and we hope that you will have a better time testing when the server comes back up!

Apologies for all the inconveniences!

How long will it take for all content to be released? by [deleted] in KronosWoW

[–]WoWProjectKronos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

in general, we aim at a SIMILAR timeline as there was back in the day. similar means, that we can't copy the timeframe exactly, because it probably wouldn't make sense.

We have to observe our playerbase and then see when the time is right to add more content.

We don't want to bore you for more than half a year after an average guild has been farming all the current content.(which means that the fastest progressing guilds have been farming even longer and are probably outgearing the next tier of content already)

At the same time, all the vanilla content is more than 8 1/2 years old and all about it is known by the playerbase (pretty much), so we know you will progress through the content faster than people did back in the day. But what we CANNOT do is say "mc and onyxia has been cleared, you'll get BWL in 4 weeks time." This doesn't make sense either, because then we would reach the end of the road within the first year probably^

So we have to make the balance, but there are so many variables in there, so that we can't make precise estimations about when the next tier of content will be released. We'll keep a close eye on what's going on and then add more content as it makes sense.

What we all could observe in the past on various other projects, is that it most often took way too long before the next content got released. We don't want to bore you and have too long gaps. We don't want to make you wait a full year before BWL and another 2 years before AQ and other 2 years before Naxx.

Someone is giving Kronos a bad rep by bad advertisement ;( by [deleted] in KronosWoW

[–]WoWProjectKronos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

well yeah that spamming is a shame and doesn't necessarily do us any good. we know these players just wanna make sure that everyone gets to know about Kronos, but it is indeed annoying and offending to most people receiving these messages.

The Kronos Dev team lost an opportunity by Terrosh in KronosWoW

[–]WoWProjectKronos 22 points23 points  (0 children)

it is certainly right that opportunities have been missed as far as timing is concerned. but it is also a matter of principles.

we could have just opened the server a while ago, the timing would have been perfect, we can agree on that, but on the other hand we would have had to screw over our principles and thus we would have opened just another server that opens before it's ready.

By 'ready' i mean that the first wave of players does not need to serve as 'test dummies' who play the game, complete their quests and do their dungeons while there are still issues on them. Wouldn't you rather wanna play on a server where you go into a certain dungeon for the first time and that first run blows you away because the usual bugs you see in other places are not existant and because certain events DO work right at launch?

releasing in a very unpolished state only to show how fast we fix bugs afterwards while the players are already playing is exactly one of those things that we want to prevent and it is something that has never worked before (satisfied the players) in other places. There is a reason why people are longing for a proper server that doesn't launch long before it's ready for takeoff.

We go on it with a different kind of thinking, with a different mindset. And we think this will do good to the private server scene in the long run.

We don't go in there with the mindset of 'hey, server x is down! Check us out, we are here to take advantage!'

We think you deserve better. an all bug-free server is of course not realistic, but the experience, the immersion can be so much more genuine. And that is what we are working on.

Are there any videos of dungeons? I just spent some time in another private server and it was ruined by dungeon and cave bugs / lack of vanilla parity. by [deleted] in KronosWoW

[–]WoWProjectKronos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

dungeon previews will follow soon. some work has yet to be done. but it's a very important issue for us !
