Many people wonder what's next for Firestorm Servers, and we'll let you know many things are coming. However, it's with great pleasure that we'll be announcing our newest project to Firestorm; this has been a project that we thought about for years. We have decided to commit ourselves to offering a stable realm to the community! Are you ready to travel back in time and explore Vanilla? Firestorm is proud to introduce you our newest realm "Blackrock".

Blackrock will release content following a predefined timeline similar to the patch release calendar made by Blizzard in 2004. All content will be progressively unlocked to let player experience the initial experience of World of Warcraft.

Why choose Firestorm over other any other Vanilla project that exists:

• A team who has ten years of experience in World of Warcraft private servers.
• We can guarantee your characters won't be deleted or wiped resulting from to technical issues or something. We have daily backups of the databases.
• Unlike other projects that support English, we'll have English, French, and Spanish community to provide support in those languages (Game Masters, Forum, and Technical Support).
• We have a well developed DDoS protection after 10 years of improvements which guarantees no realm unavailability
• Nostalrius core is used as a base in order to keep developing on a quality proved code base
• A fresh start with progressive releases of content.

Realm Details:

• All experience rates will be x1-5.
• Ability to support up to 10,000 players online.
• Realm type: Player vs .Player (PvP).
• Progressive release of the content.
• No shop at the opening.

The development of other expansions isn't affected at all since it's handled by old developers who stepped back from the Private Server community a few months/years ago and came back to offer us to open a Vanilla realm on Firestorm. Most of us are early World of Warcraft players who have played Vanilla! We are proud, eager to work and play on a realm that offers the first version of World of Warcraft that was so amazing. The realm will be opening on July 1st, 2017.
