Playtime Limitations

Blizzard

When the World of Warcraft: Classic demo becomes available to play at home on Friday, November 2, we will ensure maximum availability to players at home by initially establishing session limits.

When the demo goes live, we’ll use a playtime time limit and a cooldown (that starts when you first log in) to help as many people as possible play the Classic demo as much as possible. We’ll start with a playtime limit of a cumulative 60 minutes and a cooldown of 90 minutes. Here are some examples of how that might work:

• If you play for 30 minutes and then log off for 60 minutes, when you come back you’ll have a fresh 60 minutes.
• If you play for 60 minutes, you’ll be disconnected and then have to wait 30 minutes before you can play again.
• If you play for 20 minutes, log off for 20 minutes, then play 40 more minutes, you’ll be logged off and wait 10 more minutes.

Our goal is to lift session limits as quickly as we feasibly can after the demo goes live. We will then only reinstate session limits if unexpectedly high demand returns.

We will update this post with further information on this, as necessary.

Thank you!

Violations

Blizzard

As an additional note for your awareness, any behavior that would result in a player being suspended from the WoW Classic Demo will also cause them to be suspended from the live game. This includes suspensions for things like naming violations.

Available Content in the Demo

All characters will start the demo at level 15 to get a taste of talents and professions. The demo level cap will be 19.

The two available zones will be Westfall and Barrens, but Deadmines and Wailing Caverns will not be available. You'll be able to experience Barrens chat and getting one-shot by Defias mages!

The Classic Demo will come with Battle.net chat integration and right-click player reporting.

There is improved support for widescreen monitors.

Support for the 32-bit client has been removed.
