Wintergrasp Busted & Server Crashes in 3.0.8 Live UPDATE!
Update: We’re actively investigating Wintergrasp impacting realm stability and we’re working to resolve these issues. If needed, we may temporarily disable the Battle for Wintergrasp on all realms. If this should happen, players will still be able to venture into the zone, but will not be able to participate in the Battle itself.
We thank you for your patience as we work to address these issues.
Wintergrasp is causing crashes. Well there’s no confirmation as I am writing this ont he official forums by Blizzard but I expect them to bring down the servers for some emergency maintenance which sucks terribly. You can squeek in some gameplay during the battles but as soon as one faction or the other wins, it crashes Northrend and all Wrath of the Lich King areas and then resets starting the battle anew. It’s a great place right now for players to exploit ENDLESS HONOR, chop chop my minions.
I love how Blizzard has pushed out this MINOR content patch to fix a lot of bugs and problems with the game as well as balancing and it seems they’ve just traded them for the same amount of new problems. Like wintergrasp breaking servers when Blizzard’s original goal was to make it suck less. Then there’s the problem with Death Knight creation simply not working like they promised us. Hunter aspects aren’t off the global cooldown after all. Then there’s the list of bugs they told us about that were still going live like the 2 minute cooldown on warlock summons…
Yeah what the fuck are they doing in Irvine?


It’s wierd; I was actually able to make a DK on a server where I had characters, just not a 55, like in the patch notes, but when I was logging in I saw the message saying it was broken.
I’m gonna go off on a limb and say that somewhere down the line one of the server techs hit the [CANCEL] button in the center of the screen…
But in all seriousness, I’ve seen the bugs, and I’m sure the support teams are going ballistic. “Fire fights”, anyone?
HAha yea i thought this patch was ment to fix some of the server lag caused by WG… (i never really had a problem before only really minior lag) yesterday i logged in and went to WG and soon as the battle ended it lagged out for a good solid 5min. good job bliz.. working as intended…
