I don't know why but the vibes of Turtle WoW are just so good. I wouldn't be able to put my finger on it, it's a combination of chill wholesome Vanilla nostalgia and super sweet, flavorful custom content. I REALLY hope they add ogres, if I can finally play as an ogre mage I'm downloading then and there.
I've watched your videos forever, but I subscribed for this series! This was your best format yet. Just leveling, doing the thematic quests, grouping and letting us see the highlights. Thank you for the hard work D, appreciate it! Also, kudos to Turtle wow for the custom content.
@@Boromir2k1 yeah, about half of them, but I don't see many alliance a lot of the time though, I go to a lot of places I don't think most alliance players go to because of the leveling guide I follow
I want to see you take the real pro plunge McDubs -- Take the Hardcore Challenge. This shows your level of true wow badassery as it makes you level 1-60, and if you die a single time, you fail. Bonus points if you can do it as a non pet class.
@@morthim if you turn warmode on, you can absolutely get ganked by other players and it counts as a death. Hardcore players usually have warmode on until 20-25 at most, then they disable it.
Loving this series so far, but have a gripe about Turtle WoW. Was playing earlier today and 5 people waiting for one quest item to spawn with a WAAAAY too long spawn timer. THESE kinds of QoL changes need to be addressed by the devs. It's not 150 people playing your server anymore.
Back in the day only VERY FEW people got it. It was a reward for participating in a Blizzcon. I dont remember which year. So it wasn't even a rare item, it was an exclusive item. One time i saw a guy with it on retail and i made fun of him. I told him i can beat him on foot and i did. He didnt take it very well and he ignored me. What a dumbass! XD
Thank you for actually doing this series, it’s like seeing a new version of the game I love. I can see why this is so popular and so many people are playing! Keep the series up :)
In case you were wondering where the cloud is from, it's a model from Diablo III, from a secret level called Whimsyshire - with flowers and rainbows. And those clouds were the treasure chests.
I just downloaded Project Ascension because of your videos. It always feels super sketchy downloading private servers but I pulled the trigger. Can't wait to catch you slackin in the open world!
Curse of Recklessness was actually a staple must-have for raiding in (I'll say "New-era vanilla wow") since it reduces armor on the boss, allowing rogues and warriors to pump harder
Yo, in game my name is Grogthunk. Just want to thank you for signing my guild charter. Didn’t even know who you were until I watched a video and realized I knew your name. It’s because you signed my charter.
dude, your energy, level headed commentary and all-round pleasantness makes these videos 1000% more enjoyable. Love this channel and your videos, although I probably won't touch any kind of wow for the foreseeable future!
I first wanted to start turtle wow and play alliance, cause i play horde on retail. Then i found your channel. Ill start just horde lol. made me interested in the custom mulgore quests and stuff. Love your content man.
That troll architecture reminded me of the troll area where you do the escort quest in the Blood Elf 10-20 zone, uh ghostlands was it. Void walker best for solo play, and imp for grp play in vanilla. Felhunter was mostly used in PVP for detect invis.

I think this series is a must continue, so much has changed since I played heavily here and I am def getting the itch to come back. Great content, both you and the devs of this awesome server
love seeing you have so much and getting genuinely excited about the potential reward of getting a 5 stamina 3 int ring from a quest. Vanilla wow is absolutely amazing peak wow in my opinion and I even downloaded turtle wow to try to get into the new plus content. Keep the vids up love em mcd
this has been a cool series to watch in contrast to the Ascension videos just because they are so different. Nice to have a change of pace every so often
Can tell you're enjoying the Turtle Wow, your editing on this video is awesome bro. Refreshing change from the ascension grind too! Can always tell how much you've enjoyed your play time by your editing 😂
The server is very nice and friendly. My first thought was also that I need to level fast, as I always have, but I really just like the leveling aspect and usually get bored at max. Now the trip is the destination - something I think Twow cultivates in a very good way. Progressing the character and meeting many awesome people along the way. Edit: but they also absolutely have options to speed up levelling as well with war mode and tents.
Ooof at around 18:16 you mentioned Rev wow...looks like that shitshow crashed and burned REALLY fast, can't even find the website or community anywhere anymore. Not too surprising, considering how the launches went and how sketchy the launcher was, but I'm hella glad to see you on a server that actually gives a damn, ya know? Turtle wow and Mcdoubles is a grand combo I would order any day of the week.
Lool the tent idea is great now I won't have to see all those afk players in all sorts of random places! they got their own little square like smokers started getting a few years back haha
Loving the Tuetle vids. I play alliance on warmode and I get ganked several times a day by max or at least high level people. Hard to say for sure when I'm leveling in Westfall lol.
I played Nostalrius at launch date ♥️ so much fun. I was level 51 I think when blizzard shut it down. I was crushed, it was my only vanilla wow experience, and I wanted to raid. I don’t know if I have time for this now, but it looks amazing. I’m hoping Blizzard/Activision will remember how much bad PR came from shutting down Nost and just let this server play out. You guys have fun!
Hey Master Mcdoubles, I was curious if you could share how you got the HD models in Turtle WoW, the only video on the topic I found was a few years old! Thanks!
curse of recklessness can be surprisingly useful in dungeons that have mobs that like to run and get other packs, especially if group dps is kinda low. recklessness forces them to fight until they die and the extra damage is kind of trivial to a tank.
1:19 “I wanna meet random dudes, random people, all on the different roads, doing their own things, and actually have a common purpose, *come together* , complete it, and have fun in the process.” I think you’re looking for *Grindr* . You’re welcome.
Alliance doesn't like doing warmode that much, westfall is a dead sentence, heard so many gankers there making the defias escort quest basically impossible. Also we reached 3k online players 😃
29:40 I'll have you know that Curse of Recklessness is one of the best tools for warlocks to control FEAR. You have that Fear spell learnt haven't you? Well, guess what, you can control both players and mobs with those.
I have a quick question. Would you in the future make an addon video for the addons you use for this server? Also awesome job with the videos you’ve been making. Very entertaining and fun to watch 😄
@@Ghost-fe1vp I thought he only made an Ascension addon video. I was asking if he would do a turtle wow video for stuff like his custom quest addon. I used pf quest turtle and it doesn’t really show all the custom quests.
Not sure where i read this, but i read that they fixed Lacerate for hunters and they have it. Cant find anything anywhere about it tho...that is the one reason that would make me try this server out. If they dont have it, im not going to turtle wow. Sooo...do they have Lacerate or not?
Personally I'd consider playing it a lot more than I am now, if it had a working questhelper to show the new quests (where quests are) and where the objectives are.
@@Mcdoubles i feel this on the deepest of personal levels. Gun to my head, I would probably choose TW for the long term experience. TW community can be less than pleasant at times but the new content is really refreshing!
Episode 4: th-cam.com/video/N8Vg2Hxsa0g/w-d-xo.html
Your pfui layout is awesome, could you export the config pls? Or link to where you got it
Stop making me want to play turtle wow. I don't have enough time in my life anymore for something like this.
Same..
Exactly
The best part of no subscription is there is no pressure to play. I play 3 hours a week but don't feel guilty because it's free!
Same here..
I was thinking the same thing!
the immersion of these videos is unreal. i feel like im just startling classic again in 2019
Turtle Wow is the best private server Ive played on easily and im glad Mcdoubles plays here and there.
I don't know why but the vibes of Turtle WoW are just so good. I wouldn't be able to put my finger on it, it's a combination of chill wholesome Vanilla nostalgia and super sweet, flavorful custom content. I REALLY hope they add ogres, if I can finally play as an ogre mage I'm downloading then and there.
They would have to make a female ogre as well. Are you prepared to witness that monstrosity ? xD
I've watched your videos forever, but I subscribed for this series!
This was your best format yet. Just leveling, doing the thematic quests, grouping and letting us see the highlights. Thank you for the hard work D, appreciate it!
Also, kudos to Turtle wow for the custom content.
1:18 "I wanna meet random dudes" -McDoubles 2022, RIP his inbox.
Absolutely love the tents. The idea that even just one more play can come chill under your tent in the open world gives the whole thing so much magic.
27:15 as an alliance player, I found it to be the opposite. All of the alliance I meet have war mode on, and all the horde have it off
weird tbh
Can you confirm this after 2 weeks of playing?
@@Boromir2k1 I've had 1, maybe 2 people kill me. That's it
@@JediFrog did you see other allies flagged?
@@Boromir2k1 yeah, about half of them, but I don't see many alliance a lot of the time though, I go to a lot of places I don't think most alliance players go to because of the leveling guide I follow
Glad you enjoy Turtle wow so much
I love that cheetah form so much at 32:35
I want to see you take the real pro plunge McDubs -- Take the Hardcore Challenge. This shows your level of true wow badassery as it makes you level 1-60, and if you die a single time, you fail. Bonus points if you can do it as a non pet class.
1 more bonus point if he does it as warrior
@@morthim turtle wow is a rp server. you're never forced to have pvp mode on
@@huuminbloodborn7570 Except if you take the warmode glpyh :D
@@morthim if you turn warmode on, you can absolutely get ganked by other players and it counts as a death. Hardcore players usually have warmode on until 20-25 at most, then they disable it.
Loving this series so far, but have a gripe about Turtle WoW.
Was playing earlier today and 5 people waiting for one quest item to spawn with a WAAAAY too long spawn timer. THESE kinds of QoL changes need to be addressed by the devs. It's not 150 people playing your server anymore.
im leveling my paladin and its a blast. love turtle wow so far
The Felhunter will be your GOAT vs paladins who needs buffs and seals to function, I main paladin, and, warlocks are my nightmare!
Succubus with no CD on seduce spamm is worse for us paladins
The turtle mount made me smile. It's a neat idea, but more importantly, it is free. They easily could've made it a donation item or sth like that.
Back in the day everyone got the mount at a pretty low lvl without doing anything, they changed that up for doing the quest
@@krisman97 yeah level 5
Back in the day only VERY FEW people got it. It was a reward for participating in a Blizzcon. I dont remember which year. So it wasn't even a rare item, it was an exclusive item.
One time i saw a guy with it on retail and i made fun of him. I told him i can beat him on foot and i did. He didnt take it very well and he ignored me. What a dumbass! XD

FIFTY ONE MINUTES OF MCDOUBLES LET'S GO.
I started Turtle because of you, I just need to find a way to increase my leveling speed
The server is very nice and friendly. My first thought was also that I need to level fast, as I always have, but I really just like the leveling aspect and usually get bored at max. Now the trip is the destination - something I think Twow cultivates in a very good way. Progressing the character and meeting many awesome people along the way.
Edit: but they also absolutely have options to speed up levelling as well with war mode and tents.
Warmode is 30% increased xp. And the best thing is to sit under tents to get 1.5x rested xp. When it runs out, go back and repeat. Helps a lot
I’ve been enjoying turtle wow tons! Joined it a few weeks ago and it’s great!
Ooof at around 18:16 you mentioned Rev wow...looks like that shitshow crashed and burned REALLY fast, can't even find the website or community anywhere anymore.

Lmao I met your warlock in thousand needles on my rogue :)

Lool the tent idea is great now I won't have to see all those afk players in all sorts of random places! they got their own little square like smokers started getting a few years back haha
Thank god for explaining the tents. I am muted in game for some reason and I couldn't ask why people were under the tents or stacking them.
Mcdoubles: " I want to meet random dudes "
There is a custom quest in teldrassil alliance side too where you help the sentinels fight furbolgs to get a nice green right for healers
ahhhh i just did a dungeon yesterday with Darba, the tauren female you saw when arriving at race town.
Loving the Tuetle vids. I play alliance on warmode and I get ganked several times a day by max or at least high level people. Hard to say for sure when I'm leveling in Westfall lol.
51 mins of turtle wow

More turtle wow please!!

REALLY looking forward to turtle wow content! :o
True, spontaneous interactions with strangers in the game are fun, but imagine how much better it would be with voice chat(like in New World)
16:44 what do you mean by new graphics ? An addon ?
It's the graphics retail wow uses, it's a mod in the turtle wow discord
great i enjoy the turtle wow videos a lot !
ohh pfui, love that addon
Downloaded this after I saw how shamans are played with 2h enh hybrids, I love the bonus talents and content in this server
