Seriously so they're pulling another 60-80 again. You're splitting people up for what reason? It's ridiculous. So now you first have to select a time and then go through each one with the random dungeon finder to find the one the most people are playing on. Good job Blizzard.

The thing I miss most about the OLD way levelling worked was the ability to attempt areas that were above my level and thus more challenging. I can't tell if this does or doesn't bring this back in any fashion, if you're NOT in Chromie Time for instance?
I doubt "Vanilla" is available here. You're talking Cata.
can someone use chromie leveling when they are unsubbed? I know there are little to no beenfits doing so but i am curious if they allow it or not. Also, how does blizzard control unsubbed/ starter accounts in the next expansion? I know they said 'new' players will be forced to the island and play bfa content. However they didn't talk much about the existing trial accounts. With the new leveling scheme, they have scaled most of the vanilla content at or under level 10(which may or may not be the new level for starters)-50. This gives alot of free content for f2ps and this kinda feels like loophole or maybe blizzard is thinking of going with a freemium model.
I don't see why people are complaining that they are going to be split... everyone is going to level in WoD. There's too much free XP(treasures, objectives, quests that give higher than normal XP) in WoD to level in any other expansion.
@ WoWhead staffYou should add that after a certain bit of time while queued for a random dungeons in Chromie Time, you'll get a message asking if you want to expand your search to dungeons from all expansions. I want to say it's between 10 and 15 minutes after queuing, and that's as a DPSI feel like this is SUPER IMPORTANT to add as judging by the comments it's not a well-known feature that's available even on the PTR where I found it :) .
Crap..So I got a mate of mine to play WoW when pre patch hits.I want to level a toon with him.. So he starts his first time ever and needs to do BFA?So I need to do BFA too then... For the 6th time... And now from 10 to 50 instead of 110 to 120... This sucks donkey balls... :(
It is bad to lock people into the dungeons of a specific expansion.Since that is the case, I'll always choose Vanilla, cuz there are way more dungeons to choose from, so that I won't get sick and tired of running the same dungeon over and over again.
I posted this on the guide itself, but I'll repost it here too: isn't this feature called "Timewalking Campaigns"? Isn't it a little confusing to call it Chromie Time when there's nothing in-game that calls it that?
Reason I see against global scaling without opt-in is it makes legacy raids / dungeons impossible to solo. I was actually concerned that if the entire world was being scaled to level 50 how would folks farm legacy content. This may not be the most elegant solution but it works, which I'm fine with.
hmm. This better be good.
