wow Players Stuck on Loading Screens and Waiting for Boats, Portals Appear

[Starym 3,726]

 

It seems the Dragonflight launch is having some issues, as we're seeing plenty of players have some issues.

We'll be updating this post as more reports come in, but the main message is - if you're having trouble logging in or getting to the Dragon Isles, you're not the only one.

This last one is just too good to believe, as Raszageth's timing could not have been better:

Another tragic tale:

Some of those that made it through decided to show some solidarity to their party members, and use their time in the Isles wisely:

Another warning to always think before you hearth:

Say what you will about Shadowlands, but it had a smooth launch, and players are already re-evaluating their views on the now former expansion:

Some players didn't even know how lucky they were, as they made it to the Dragon Isles just fine, played a little, but then DARED to log out:

Then there's the usual source of trouble for a game:

The greatest horror of all: some players can't even leave the Shadowlands due to the world server being down:

And the memes have started already:

Original post:

From long or infinite loading screens to the Dragon Isle boats just not showing up, with "unknown time until arrival" there's a lot happening at the expansion's launch.

Meanwhile the boat to Boralus hasn't despawned and the boat for Dragon Isles has yet to spawn and the guy now says "Unknown Arrival Time". Oh boy.

After the long waits for the boat Blizzard finally spawned a portal to the Dragon Isles, but those that entered faced long and/or infinite loading screens, and some are just getting "Transnsfer aborted: instance not found" errors.

Even those that made the original boats didn't quite make it across.

And then there's those that don't even have world servers!

Just tried and was stuck on loading, then boat never came and had some dcs. Nothing surprising here, EU is big, but we had better launches.

The "World Server Down" boss is not fun, guys.

That's quite the combo there.

Yeah! Over an hour later it turned out fine, looks like EU had more issues than NA.
