At this point, servers are stable and we aren't seeing any major login issues.

Thanks for your patience as we worked this out!

Updated 7/19

We’re planning to run an initial test of re-activating the Communities feature on a few realms this morning. Those realms are:

• Black Dragonflight
• Gul’dan
• Skullcrusher
• Lightbringer
• Mal’ganis

This test is scheduled to begin at roughly 9 AM Pacific time. If you’re on one of the above realms, please let us know if you experience any issues once Communities have been re-enabled. Thanks!

Hi everyone,

So, as you’ve noticed, today’s patch release has not gone nearly as smoothly as we would have liked. We’re sorry for how this has affected the stability and playability of the game while these issues have been ongoing. This has obviously not been the launch that any of us wanted.

That said, we want you to know that there are currently several teams of people working hard to get you back in Azeroth and enjoying the Battle for Azeroth Pre-Patch as quickly as possible. We’ll share more details in this thread when we can.

Thanks for your patience,

The World of Warcraft Team

As we work to identify the cause of these issues, we will be temporarily disabling the World of Warcraft Communities feature. The in-game and guild chat channels will still be available for use. The Guild Calendar may also be missing events while we address these concerns.

Any word on how it's going in the servers with iCommunities turned back on yet?


Things are looking good and testing is going to happen on other realms.
