New Oceanic PvP realm for transfer

by Eliah Hecht Apr 19th 2008 at 9:00AM

Well, now it seems that you can't say Blizzard's ignoring the Oceanic community any more. Starting next Monday, April 21, at 12 PM PST, free character transfers will be made available from the following Oceanic PvP realms:

Barthilas
Frostmourne
Jubei'Thos
Thaurissan

The destination will be a brand-new Oceanic PvP realm called Dreadmaul. It will be in the Bloodlust battlegroup. New character creation on Dreadmaul will be disabled until transfers are over, and the realm will have its Ahn'Qiraj gates open automatically. As always, transfer early if you want to, because Blizzard may close the transfers before the deadline if there's a mad rush on them. The transfers are scheduled to run for a week, until April 28, 12 PM PST.

Isn't the call for a new pvp server to get OUT of that battle group? Doesn't make much sense to me..

Throw them right into BG9!

So.

When are we actually going to get a Oceanic servers that are in... like...Oceania?

I wouldn't hold your breath. It would cost Blizzard too much for it to be cost effective, what with the server setup, employees, new HQ, and whatever else would come with it.

Unlucky :(

Finally an Oceanic server that isn't in that damn BG9... O WAIT.

It will however ease some of the stress on all the oceanic pvp servers during the night when they usually get laggy so I'm grateful for the afterthought, Blizzard.

I wonder if/when they'll add at least one RP server to the Oceanic selection. I know there are quite a few people asking for one over there.

Is there a max number of toons you can xfer to a realm?

They may not be ignoring Oceanic players but they sure as hell are ignoring the real issue with the servers...

*Yawn* Oh hooray another server that is located in American.

Seriously how hard would it be to put a bunch of oceanic servers in with the Chinese ones in China were they're allready set up? So you know, we could have servers on the same side of the god damm planet as us?
