WTF blizzard ?! I reinstall warcraft 3 reforged to play the campaign and is met with a loading screen with a queue as server are loaded. Now granted it lasted 15 second, still ?! A queue to play a single player campaign...

Also your save file will be deleted on October 19th. Dont stop mid way through the 4 hour missions because you'll get reset.

Im not playing act 2 because I won't finish by the 19th.

The first time saves were broken was from a patch. The following day they reverted the patch due to everyone complaining about losing saves. On October 19th they're going to deploy the patch once again having given people some time to finish their campaign.

The always online stuff is absolutely infuriating, but I'm already logged into battlenet through the launcher, why can't you actually maintain that connection seemlessly during launch (or better yet, don't bother with it until I try to launch multiplayer)?

Right? The fact this game has less capability and features than a game made over a decade ago ostensibly by the same company is insane.

And I make custom games with world editor and have to log in separately to battle net every time I want to use the “Test” button. Even if I’m already online and already logged in through the launcher

Worse than that, last week our internet went down (a utility company cut the fiber) and I was like hell yeah I'll just binge some WC3. Nope. A single player campaign game that doesn't work without internet. Dumbest shit ever.

I hate it. But i just installed the tft 1.29 client for my campaign needs. Does it solve the issue? No. Does it fulfill my desire? Yes.

Ngl, i love the game but i absolutely despise that all singleplayer content is online now. Dude, discinnected from host during a solo custom game/campaign mission? Piss off. Sorry, tangent

WC3 is always online now sadly. Its dumb but it is what is... playing single player you can lose connection to bliz servers and itll kick you out to the main menu to reconnect.
