World of Warcraft Forever Name Reservation Is Broken Ahead of Launch

The World of Warcraft Forever beta ended last week, and in the space in between that and its full launch on November 4, Blizzard is offering players the ability to reserve character names ahead of release. There's only one problem: the system looks like it's broken.

Right now, the name reservation system is only supposed to be available in Europe, with North American servers getting a name reservation window starting at 1pm PT/4pm ET today. But the WoW Forever team has issued a message to players in the Battle.net client, saying "World of Warcraft: Forever Name Reservations are delayed while we resolve some final technical issues. Thank you for your patience!"

The way the name reservation system is supposed to work is that, by launching the latest version of WoW Forever, players will be able to pick a ruleset (PvE, PvP, etc,) and then create up to three characters with reserved names. But, for a lot of European players, the blue 'Play' button on the Battle.net launcher is grayed out, meaning they can't even get into the game to try and make a new character.

Just like with any sort of World of Warcraft delay, players have taken to the WoW forums to voice their discontent, in a massive 120-post thread. Player Equinox posted, "There is literally nothing going right the first time something new launches. " Meanwhile, Katerlina asked , "They did this already for USA right? S. quite yet.
