Sadly, yes. People defend Blizzard even when they know it's retardedly wrong what's happening. And I also know people will tell me to 'transfer to a low pop server'. I have friends on this server, a great guild, and I've been playing here from day 1. No way I'm switching servers!

As long as blizzard wrote something about it, doesnt matter if it was several months ago, you cant compain. Its against blizzard fanboy regulations.

Remember they can only see something that brings in $$$ ahead, not something that will cost them $$$. Instance server problems + 3.2 = Wonder if this will make the problem bigger, hmm.

Yup, a 15 minute dungeon that drops ilvl 200 epics and is farmable is a great idea! Instance servers already overloaded, who cares?!

AND add more content that requires people to do old content for achievements.... Great idea!

I actually DID reroll an alt on Nagrand (most of our other chars are in Misery BG which is VERY WELL NAMED!)... She's level 40something now after 3 days grinding... I have to admit it's nice to not see the instance portal message, but I MISS my 'real' chars. :(

EXACTLY, this is why its so frustrating. It was bad enough before the patch, now its IMPOSSIBLE to get in any lower instances.

FOUR Mother F*****************ing hours now and the last guy finally gave up, including me since I was practically falling asleep, and my A/D key fingers are hurting from continuous strafing. Heck I even had dinner in the middle of it while my group still carried on but no joy.

WHY THE HELL CAN'T WE GET WHAT WE'RE PAYING FOR

I know shouting isn't the way but cmon now! FOUR FECKING HOURS and still NOTHING to show of it. At least with long BG queues and so on you, and the rest of the bloody group can go and do other things in the meantime. Its been over a month since the patch made it worse and still NOTHING for our server. Urgh. Makes me ashamed to pay for this crap.

Yes it may be hard to upgrade servers blablabla, but THIS hard? For a multimillion dollar company thats getting our subscriptions, then denying us content? NO.

I really want to do this content that I had to miss due to Uni, and I'm bein completely denied it, at all times of the day. Even at 2am this problem is still ongoing. Seriously made me think about cancelling and play something else, at least till they fix this crap, sick of it now, can't even count the amount of groups and raids that have disbanded cause of this.

ETA Is like a month or to for most of the servers.

Edit: And am I just lucky that my server is one of the 'few' that has gotten the fix?

They said that last month, and the months before that when this problem was appearing, BEFORE the stupid patch that introduced farmable faceroll dungeons.

FOUR F*****ING HOURS. *Still steaming.

Husband and I spent 3,5 hours bouncing at the portal for BRS... just wanted to do the 2 LBRS pet quests and the Jenkins achievement... got ganked over and over (and ganked back over and over)... world pvp is fine and all, but I would like to be able to zone into the instances I'm paying for.

Never did get in....

Today I spent 5 HOURS bouncing into the instance portal for wailing caverns... at the end of 5 hours.. I didn't get ONE SINGLE RUN (for my deviate raptor hatchling)... but I did wind up with a clean house when I finally gave up.

/sigh

I feel you, I expect thats even more annoying with killing each other there as well, though at least it gave something to do.

WHY couldn't they have just implemented a queue system like bgs temporarily rather than just whapping on a flat instance cap, and then giving it priority to L80s? Do you pay some kinda max fee or entitled to more crap just cause ya doing higher lvl stuff?

At least you'd be able to do other things while waiting for ya instance slot, even if ya never got it.

Its hell getting a full 10-40 man group together and then have everyone FO cause ya can't get in, and I can't even blame em!

We're actually deep into implementing optimisations across all realms due to this instance capacity message. For those realms we have already done these modifications on, people report the message is rarely ever seen, if at all. We realise being unable to access raids and dungeons isn't at all fun and that is why we are working hard at solving this issue. We have been updating you regularly about these modifications, and our latest post about it is located here:
http://forums.wow-europe.com/thread.html?topicId=10543416159&sid=1

I'm sorry to lock your post, but we'd really appreciate it if you posted your comments and feedback in the existing stickied thread that I've linked to above. Thanks for your cooperation in advance. :-)
