How authentic to Vanilla will it be? >The goal is to recreate the exact experience, for better or for worse.
Is it the original code? >We've got an old build that's up and running that we're using for reference. Most of this job is going to be infrastructure: making sure everything can work on a more modern setup.
Why run it on a modern setup? >Classic WoW has all kinds of bugs and problems, it has all kinds of exploits and hacks that everyone knows about. We think we have a way to have the old WoW version work on the modern infrastructure and feel really good. The infrastructure is how we spin up instances and continents, how the database works.
Is this being done by the retail WoW team? >We’re going to hire people specifically for this job, and we’re going to staff it with people who are interested in bringing back Classic WoW in the best, most authentic way.
When is the release date? >We actually don't know when we're going to release it. I know that's a generic answer that we give for all of our Blizzard titles, but with this one, we don't actually know how long it will take. This is a massive effort.
that's why they'd release after BfA overall it's a massive boost to subscriptions, which is why they're doing it
