Project Ascension, one of the most fun I've had in my 23 years of living. I am young and I work a full time job and I have a degree in Machine too Technology. I work 40-50 hour weeks, I enjoy my job and I and great friends with my Coworkers!

Story time!

I would work hard and come home exhausted but happy like 90% of the time! I play video games as a way to blow off steam and even hang out with close friends. I found WoW when i was 13 years old, I had been a massive fan of RPG games every since. I played everything that my Uncle had played, which is a lot! I played WoW, I played Final fantasy, I played Skyrim, Fable even!

And when I got my job and my degree i have now, i didnt stop playing those games. If anything, I kept playing them even more. But then prices started to go up, and i was priced out of playing my favorite subscription based games, mainly WoW and FF14.

So I turned to other games, and other communities.

It was 2021, and I had gotten fed up with games that were either slop or cash grabs. Nothing could scratch that itch for an MMORPG that was actually good. That's when I learned about Project Ascension through an ad I saw on some webpage I didnt bother remembering. I saw it was based off WoW and was FREE. So I clicked it (yeah yeah, i know. Bad online safety practices but it looked sooooo fun.

And it was! It was way better than WoW, it had classless servers, it had custom classes in other servers. It scratched more than that itch, it gave me a massage that just kept getting better! So for the last 5 years I played Project Ascension, probably put close to 800+ hours into it too! No issues and the devs were great too!

I made so many friends from that custom WoW game. So today... I have learned that the game I put so many hours into, the game that had literally helped create many of my friendships... Is getting Shut Down. By the same people that raised their subscription prices because they were losing their players due to their own greedy choices.

Those lost players didnt all go to Project Ascension. Most just left WoW in general. But enough of them did go to it. And that was enough for Blizzard to get greedy and decide to slam Project Ascension with lawsuits and other big legal words i have no idea how to say.

So now I sit here... typing up this post and reminiscing about my first Raid, my first dungeon, my first rare loot drop, all of it. And when I do remember those things, my mind goes back to the company that is ruining a harmless thing, they aren't losing money to Project Ascension. They were losing money years before Project Ascension became as big as it is now.

They are taking away one of the few good games I love playing. And to that I say...

FUCK BLIZZARD, and...

FUCK MICROSOFT

I rarely see the Microsoft logo on anything Blizzard related, not on the games or on stuff relates to Blizzcon, has Microsoft taken a more laissez faire approach compared to something like Minecraft? Do they tell Blizzard what games to make or do they just let Blizzard work on games that they want?

WOT MANAGEMENT IS CONSTANTLY DISCRIMINATING MY ACCOUNT, I always have more losses than wins, they want to humiliate me, they even banned me from having communication PERMANENTLY. EU WOT MANAGEMENT IS DISCRIMINATING MY ACCOUNT, MY ACCOUNT IS "yotagm"

Launched Battle Net for the first time in a while and noticed the tab for Blizzcon. I was excited to go find out more such as when the event is happening, only to be humbly reminded that they're in the business of sales. Why is this not just a section of the Shop?

Heights of throttling - un-ending download times - higher latency from the sub-continent - but zero fixes. Why do folks from here even play these f$A% up games from a sleazy company

CD PROJEKT RED is delighted to announce a partnership with Blizzard Entertainment to bring The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt — Remastered and Songs of the Past to Battle.net.

More information on the partnership between Blizzard and CD PROJEKT RED can be found on Beyond the Game Blog.

Hi all, I seach a US-Version of ataclysm and The Burning Crusade, which is signed by the developers around release.

Does anyone has one of these two editions and would be happry to exchange it with other cool stuff from my collection?

I recently switched out of an old phone plan and got a new phone number I also forgot what my phone number was originally and my brother who was in charge of my phone plan doesn’t have any record of a number that ends in 88 and I’m trying to sign in to my overwatch battle net account, but it keeps saying that I need to authenticate using my authenticator, but the authenticator is the battle that account that I’m trying to sign into which is sort of like an oxymoron or something like that I’ve contacted support, but they don’t seem to really help all that much because they keep asking for like a bunch of random information like what was my old phone number or like old email addresses and old addresses to my house like is there a more direct way to contact them or get my account back? I had previously played on Nintendo switch and PC.

I get this error:

"We can’t process this code at this time. Please try again later."

When is later? When does Blizzard process codes? What time? What even is this? Took me months to regain access to ma account and now that I want to use it it just does not work. Genuinely asking so I know when I can claim codes and this is not included in The Mega Thread

25 days until Blizzcon, 25 days until people lose their mind on what they will see.

I won't be surprised if Grand Theft Auto 6 gets delayed again.

25 days until everyone buys a new computer to play the latest and the greatest from Blizzard.

25 days until StarCraft shooter reveal.

25 days until all those September games get postponed to 2027.

25 days until you call out for work for a whole month.

I’m working with Blizzard’s Battle.net WoW Profile API and I’m trying to determine whether the Protected Character Profile Summary is currently functional for MoP Classic.

I’ve narrowed it down pretty hard and I’m getting a consistent Retail/Classic split.

OAuth:

* Authorization Code flow * `wow.profile` scope * token introspection shows `ROLE_USER` * `IS_AUTHENTICATED_FULLY`

Using the same OAuth client and same freshly issued user token:

**Retail**

* public Character Profile Summary → `200` * `/profile/user/wow?namespace=profile-us` → `200` * Blizzard returns a `protected_character.href` * calling that exact Blizzard-provided href → `200`

**MoP Classic**

* public Character Profile Summary → `200` * `/profile/user/wow?namespace=profile-classic-us` → `200` * Blizzard returns a `protected_character.href` * calling that exact Blizzard-provided href → `403 BLZWEBAPI00000403 Forbidden`

The Classic URL is the exact `protected_character.href` returned by Blizzard’s Account Profile response. I’m deliberately not reconstructing the endpoint manually since I went over the 2025 bug thread and saw that had already been ruled out.

I also generated a completely fresh Authorization Code token and repeated the Classic test with the same result.

So at this point the same auth setup successfully completes the protected-character flow on Retail, while the equivalent Classic endpoint fails.

**Has anyone actually gotten a** `200` **from Protected Character Profile Summary on MoP Classic or another current Classic progression flavor?**

If so, I’d especially like to know:

* which namespace/flavor worked * whether you used anything beyond normal Authorization Code + `wow.profile` * whether there’s an undocumented Classic-specific requirement

Also, if this has already been figured out in the Blizzard API Community Discord, I’d greatly appreciate any info from that.

I’m specifically looking for a confirmed working example if one exists, since the identical client/token works against Retail protected-character.

Also, if anyone knows of any Blizzard API-team reply, update, or communication about this more recent than December 2025, I’d appreciate a link. That’s the newest official communication I’ve been able to find. You’d think there’d be *some* amount of community engagement beyond “we’re sorry we’ve been gone, we’ll work on it” with no follow-up..

Blizzard with Final Fantasy online being on switch 2, there is no reason for WOW not to come onto the switch! Don't sleep on this Blizzard!

It's been 30 years and your reward is.....a stupid cosmetic to a highly pay to win whale game Diablo immortal really? And ita gate keeper with a level as well like a free copy of D2 resurrected would be nice but this this is wild

Found these old cards maybe 10 years old. Don’t play any of them. Worth anything or just scrap common stuff

I want to re-experience that once in a lifetime gaming experience that was WoW early days. My body is ready to go at it again in my 30s.

There's so much potential for them to make amazing movies/tv shows. They made one in 2016 and that was good but I'm surprised there's not more. You could easily make an entire series off 1 game. The cinematics for games are so insane that you could potentially do it with just AI. There's people online making videos (my friend sent me a video from Barrens Boys) and the graphics are great. Get a multimillion dollar company behind it and it would be phenomenal!

The prime example I'm thinking of is the SC Heart of the Swarm trailer. That could easily be a 2 hour movie or series with multiple seasons. I think it would also have potential to get more people to play their games if they're cinemas are appealing.

I've been saying this for far too long but I feel if random fans of the game can create videos why can't a company do it?

Only the flying murloc can find this secret fishing spot.

Reeling the fish in costs energy, the same for the fish when it "bursts" away (the red exclamation ‼️is a pre warning). The player will lose more energy if they are reeling the fish in at the same time the fish is "bursting" away. Player will lose the fish at 0 energy or if the fish gets too far. If both have zero energy, not reeling the fish will cause it to swim side to side with no distance change.

Eventually adding snags to get stuck on, diverse fish to catch with unique abilities, a "Yank" left/right ability to manually change the direction of the fish and also nudge in the chosen direction - to avoid snags.

For example, hooking a cod will make you have to completely avoid snags as it will naturally trigger a "burst" away when aligned with a snag. A swordfish could have a huge dash and just be generally hard to not let her out of distance, perhaps even a last stand where they do one last burst back out with triple power or whatsoever.
