Update 2:30pm PDT: It seems like most of the issues have been resolved for players disconnecting, but other issues such as missing rulesets are being reported by players in both regions.
Update 1:05pm PDT: NA players are now able to log in and reserve names, however many are facing queues and then instantly disconnect.
Update 12:40pm PDT: EU players can now reserve their names! NA players still have about 20 minutes to wait until their scheduled time, so any delays are still unknown.
Update 11:20am PDT: The banner alert for many players has now changed to the following:
However, reports are that all rulesets are grayed out for those able to log in, meaning no names can currently be saved or reserved.
Via a notification on the Battle.net launcher, Blizzard has announced a delay in reserving names for WoW: Forever.
Players are eagerly awaiting the launch of WoW: Forever on November 4th, and to get ahead of the massive crowds (and hopefully snag the name they want), those who pre-purchased the Skyborne Heroic Pack, Skyborne Epic Pack, and Warcraft Forever Collection are eligible to reserve names ahead of time. However, while those reservations were set to go live today, Blizzard has quietly announced that there are technical difficulties which are pushing the launch of this feature back an undetermined amount of time.
Whether this will impact NA servers is yet to be seen, since the only players currently eligible for the reservation window are EU. We'll update this article as we find out more - stay tuned, and get your names ready for when reservations go live!
