Right now many players panic about their old Warcraft 3 accounts<\/strong>!
\nWhat will happen to them?<\/span><\/p>\n

The old Warcraft 3 Accounts<\/h2>\nSome old or active Warcraft 3 TFT accounts<\/strong> have so many games… it took ages to reach that.
\nPlayers with a WC3 1500 pic<\/strong> want to keep their accounts no matter what will happen.
\nAlso the tournament statistics<\/strong> are an issue, it is super time consuming to create a really nice tournament account<\/strong> and there is so much effort in it.<\/p>\n

Will Blizzard allow us to transfer or keep these accounts<\/strong>?<\/p>\n

Here is a screenshot of one of my Warcraft 3 accounts<\/strong>, I would like to keep! (Nothrend, Europe)
\nI have a bloodmage and a doom pic:
\n\"Warcraft<\/p>\n

Blizzard announced that the Warcraft 3 Accounts will be useable in Reforged<\/h2>\n

Blizzard announced that they will not take away something from the user, that they will not remove a progress a user hase worked hard for:
\nThey will either keep the Warcraft 3 game statistics in the new profiles<\/strong> OR will reward the player with a new reward with the same value<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It is great to hear that Blizzard said, more achievements will come. The current Warcraft 3 achievements<\/strong> are really simple and needily, you know we all just had profile pictures and percentages that’ all! But we have been happy with it, I hope the new achievments will not break this concept.<\/p>\n

If done right the new Warcraft 3 Reforged achievements and rewards<\/strong> could possibly motivate me a lot and bring activity back into the game<\/strong>. bizeps<\/p>\n

Will Blizzard allow Smurf Accounts in Warcraft 3 Reforged?<\/h2>\n

It is not quite sure if Blizzard will allow smurf accounts in Warcraft 3 Reforged<\/strong>, but in a first interview with Pete Stillwell, one of the Reforged developers, it got announced that they want to keep the basics…<\/p>\n

They want to keep what Warcraft III made popular<\/strong> and the chat channels and smurf accounts<\/strong> are a big part of this. They do not plan to take this away from the players.<\/p>\n

It is not a final information yet, but I am looking forward that this will have an happy end – I just love smurfs and new accounts, you know: new account, new luck! \ud83d\ude00 <\/span><\/p>\n

We will know more once the Beta<\/a> is out!<\/p>\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
