[QUOTE="christinme1234"]

1. Its not newbie friendly. I have play just about every mmo I can download, and there is so much stuff going on with WAR that it is offputting.

  • you have scenarios, campaigns, skirmishes, battlefields and all of these words are ambiguous and aren't explained very well in the game.
  • With all of these things, there is nothing to tell you what they are or how you join them. There was a point in a game where i was
  • I have to keep checking that dumb accept button because the eula keeps poping up each time i load the game
  • THe game takes forever to load
  • The animation and game in general is glitchy. I joined a low population server and it is still glitchy. Up against a fence? get ready to not be able to jump over it unless you spam the jump key.
  • What the hell is area influence, Renown,etc.
  • Why am I getting abilities and not able to use them: Im Rank 4 and i have Eagle's Flight but i don't have improved balance...wth is up with that. Do i need to go somewhere to get this?
  • THe graphics aren't that good, and I would venture to bet that the models have aless poly count than wow.
  • It pretty much is wow. They have all the same aspects and ideas of wow except they call it different. THe UI is the same pretty much. The gear is colored the same (green, blue, purple, white, grey). The money is all the same just called different (instead of copper you have brass)
  • I stumbled in on a public quest and did it solo by just running around and killing the same guys over and over and over. The DEFINITION of a grind.
  • The bounding box collision sucks Ba!!$. There are times when i will try to run past a fence and will clearly be out of its way and the game still decides to stop me from moving.
  • The environment is completely boring...There are no butterflys, birds, squirrels, deer, snakes, etc....I realize that this environment is not meant for something like this but still. All the enemies just sit in one place (I have only gotten to rank 4 so my experience from there) and they don't do anything special at all.
  • The game just seems unpolished and unresponsive.

This is not a bad game but it is not all you crack it up to be.Phenom316

Lol everything u just said was horribly untrue, you could say u hate the game and thats cool, but u talked about all the best things of the game and slammed it with BS. And u know nothing about it, some of the questions u asked prove how u played this game for 20 minutes. Sad, sad. Reminds me of the lemmings telling me how PC gaming is the worst.

Lol im suprised at the amount of people hating on this game without playing (im not talking abou the guy i quoted). It seems that same WoW fans are threatened by this game, and wanna lash out by bashing it. IMO, this game is phenomenal, and any MMO fan, anyone who wants to be brought into the genre or any MMO haters should try it out :D

hey im a wow fan, and im not bashing it at all.

just i will not get the game until i try out a 14 day or (however long) free trial of it...

just as i did for wow.

but, i understand your post, just wanted to point out not all wow-likers are bashing it.

and not about the guy i quoted..........................

oh and i love how when someone talks good about a game ...(or bad about a game, referring to the devs "rival" company or some crap) ask how much are these guys paying you?

yeah 40% of the posters here at gamespot are on some developers payroll, please.

the closest things to that is these devs/publishers buy and pay for biased reviews from GAMESPOT, not the posters, thats about it.

Its just another 12 year old magnet. The very reason i left WoW. Its like they combine things from EQ and WoW. Same cartoon feel Also every 2 or 3 toons look alike. Not much to customizing your looks.

About the Cartoon part; I think he's reffering to the graphics (?).

About the customisation part; if you really want to customise the way you look, then I would highly recommend CoH/V. I guarantee that you will never look like someone else in the game (unless you want too or if you copy an existing hero's costume). And yes of course the game is good...

lol settle down you hypocritical ****, don't get all butt hurt now.

It's not like you rabid WAR fans (haha, look at your sig) weren't so determined to take pot shots at WoW and its players whenever talking about WAR.

Don't think I love WoW and hate WAR, I just hate the lies and cheap shots that you use to sing praises for your game and put the other down.-wildflower-

Ha, hypocrite? I've never liked WoW so my opinion has very little to do with my liking WAR. I just get a little tired of all the WoW fans raging on every other MMORPG as something that's inferior or a "clone" of their beloved WoW. Oh, and I'm not sure what my Sig. has to do with anything. I've always thought Blizzard made mediocre McGames and WoW isn't any different, so what? Is your Interwebz-ego some how threatened by my opinion? Grow up.

No, your ego was, and your whiny post showed that. And you're a hypocrite because you were mocking WoW fans for "raging" on WAR while you're quite an enormous hater yourself.

Only 12 year olds mistake concept art for in-game art. Hell, make that 6 year-old. 12 yo can do better than that.

Warhammer Online is not "kiddy" like WoW. Or "as kiddy" for you big time gangsters.

World of Warcraft looks pretty cartoony, i dont find anything wrong with that. TF2 is cartoony also but is great.

Warhammer Online looks much more brutal and crazy.

Heres a perfect comparision:

WoW Tauren (Horde):

http://www.ezoons.com/images/2006/02/carne.png

WAR Chosen (Destruction):

http://img.war-europe.com/syndic_img/nlarchive/2008-03/en/newsletter/Marauder_s.jpg

I picked those two because they are the most similar out of all the dark ****s.

And same with the enviourment and stuff, WAR is more like AoC than WoW if you talk about the characters and enviornment.

I was watching a few Warhammer RVR video clips on YOUtube and it looks like a whole lot of fun. I would probably be interested in playing a shadow warrior.

No you must NOT play Warhammer so that hopefully the mmorpg continues a trend downward towards complete failure and hopefully Blizzard screws up their next mmorpg. These are timesinks that appear to be fun but really are a waste of time. Also if you want people being rude and ridiculous while you are trying to relax playing a pc game well then you are just weird. Hopefully mmorpgs in general die in the next decade.DeViLzzz

So because you dont like mmorpg's they should die?

Well millions love them so its not gonna happen. Im loving WAR. So far i havn't seen any signs that the community is childish or as hostile as WoW's.

I really hope WAR goes on to become a very successfull game, i think it will. It has its faults, WoW had just as many and more on launch and has had years of patches to make it the game it is today, people seem to forget all this though.

I didnt bother reading everything except for the first post and I have to agree with the poster. I just installed the game a few nights ago and it is unlike any other MMO I have played. I havent done any grinding at all! Its amazing I am not even sure if this is an mmo :P well it is but it almost makes me think of some kind of winternights game or something except the main focus is rvr (pvp) which is SO fun! Well I must be going now......to play some WAR :D

Well i have to say its threads like this that make me ashamed to be a PC gamer. SW is correct, some PC gamers are so elitist. Its no wonder PC games dont always sell well. If you pass judgement on this game without even playing the RETAIL version you have no right to comment. This is a great game that deserves a chance.

Why so many PC gamers shun games that are great for reasons unknown is beyond me. So what if its like WoW, so what if WoW is like EQ, it doesn't make them bad games. I'm sick of this crap.

umm im not being biased, or taking either side, just pointing out something fairly obvious here, that WOW pic, is not running at max or anywhere close to max graphical settings... cant say the same for that WAR pic

siiince war is the most generic and easy mmo to be released ever (it's even easier than conan) i was bored and saw all content in the entire game after 15 minutes.

no thanks... and it's not impressive. at all.

WoW can be dark too. You just chose a bright one:

http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/downloads/wallpapers/wallpaper115.html

http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/downloads/wallpapers/wallpaper98.html

http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/downloads/wallpapers/wallpaper101.html

http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/downloads/wallpapers/wallpaper117.html

WoW is dark in some places, bright in others. The graphics arent cartoony, its just how they look, and they do look bright and animated in bright areas, but they also look gloomy in others. People seem to focus on the cartoony part to make some mediocre arguement against the game. And besides, I dont see whats wrong with cartoony. If your going to make an arguement against the game, at least make a reasonable one.

WoW has nothing to do with this thread, just that its not like WAR.

If you want to debate how the look alike (which they dont in the slightest), make a thread on it yourself.

Says the guy with the ego that thinks hes above games like WoW and Halo and is somehow hardcore... how sad.

PC360Wii

I can't recall ever saying anything bad about Halo since I've NEVER played it. Care to refresh my memory there, chief? Of course you can't because it's all in your imagination. I've also NEVER claimed to be hardcore. I actually think it's a ridiculous term and have NEVER used it to describe myself or anyone else for that matter. It's a shame you can't say the same.

Look, I'm sorry that I thought WoW was generic garbage and an endless grind of mediocre PvE, flat graphics, abysmal PvP and filled with pointless time-sinks. I'm not sure why, but you seem to take great offense at anyone who's opinion differs from your own. I suspect or hope that once you move out of mom and dad's you'll find out that, in the real world, no matter what they've told you, you're really not that special. In short, nobody cares.

But, by all means, keep on waving that Blizzard flag. I do sincerely hope they pay you and your comrades well for your raging devotion and fanaticism but, and I hope this doesn't squash your budding little i-ego, I honestly couldn't care less what you or the handful of other WoW snobs (you know, the ones, like you, who berate and belittle every other MMORPG on these boards as something that's inferior to their mighty and cherished golden god) think about anything.

Yes, how sad indeed.

Is there a way to try it out without buying first? Like a demo version of some sort? I know you asked, what do you have to lose by giveing it a shot except a couple hours, but what about the money? I really want to give the game a shot, but idk if I"m ready to put a lot of money on the line for it. Wouldn't I have to actually buy the game itself, and then also a one month subscription just to try it?

You specifically asked me if I play games like Halo because I liked WoW... and said I liked shallow games. try to lie your way out of that huh?

Its funny, you claim I only like WoW, yet you only hate WoW... you come into every thread related and trash it ( although admitedly it should be in this thread. )

I also like it how someone posted an image of a pretty much naked albino tauren compared with a 2008 modeled "deathknight" class equivilant.

You want dark? I dont see many WAR models that look as good as this ( Artistically ).

Teardropmina really needs to quit giving out information when it is obvious they do not know what they are talking about. Earlier in a post this person claimed to another that when a game requires free space it is the amount of space that should be left on your hard drive AFTER the install. I have never heard anything quit so retarded. When a game states it needs a certain amount of free space it means the space required on the hard drive to install the game. not the amount that should be left over after the install. Please, if some of you are really this uninformed go back to playing on your consoles and leave the computers to the big boys.

I'm not sure why, but you seem to take great offense at anyone who's opinion differs from your own. I suspect or hope that once you move out of mom and dad's you'll find out that, in the real world, no matter what they've told you, you're really not that special. In short, nobody cares.

But, by all means, keep on waving that Blizzard flag. I do sincerely hope they pay you and your comrades well for your raging devotion and fanaticism but, and I hope this doesn't squash your budding little i-ego, I honestly couldn't care less what you or the handful of other WoW snobs (you know, the ones, like you, who berate and belittle every other MMORPG on these boards as something that's inferior to their mighty and cherished golden god) think about anything.

Yes, how sad indeed.

Yeah, we all see you in every WoW topic stating the same thing over and over again. It isn't an opinion as much as it is a crusade. I feel mostly the same way about WoW that at 70 it becomes less like a game and more like a job but I learned to LET IT GO.

Please show us on the doll where the bad old game touched you

*sigh* GS should create a new forum area for rants and raves...

Now then, back on topic, I wouldn't say you must play WAR, but, it would be good if you actually tried it. WAR is probably the most highly anticipated MMO I have ever seen. Just don't start judging the game without even trying it...I tried it, wasn't as good as I belived it was going to be, but good nonetheless.

And guys, don't start fighting over which is better. Keep your thoughts to yourself or post a new thread for WoW v WAR or something...

Nomatter who you are, aslong as you enjoy PC games, you should definately try out this game.

There are quite alot of people who arent a fan of the MMO genre, becuase MMO and Mindless Grind coexist. I, and many people who have played the game to a quite high level can tell you that this game has no grind. Seriously, there isnt :o. You guys should definately give this game a try, even if its your first MMO, its newbie friendly and is quite frankly by far the greatest MMO available.

To people turned off the genre because of World Of Warcraft. Asides from the controls, and the MMO Formula, the games are nothing alike.

O yes, and to the people thinking Warhammer Online is a WoW clone, you are SADLY mistaken. The Warhammer fantasy universe is much older then the Warcrafts. This game is unique, and NOT world of warcraft in the slightest.

And lastly, to fellow MMO fans. This game is everything you have loved about MMOs in the past, with everything youv dreamed about, and some more! Trust me guys, you will absolutely LOVE it. The RvR. The unique, detailed, brutal cla$$es. The PQs. The Lairs. The RvR. The Dungeons. The RvR. The Quests. The RvR. The Fantasy Universe. The Monsters. The RvR. The Bosses. And just soooo much more (yes, i know i said RvR 4 times :D). The game is incredibly fun.

Bottom line, nomatter who you are, be it someone who has never played an MMO before, someone who hates the genre or a veteran. Warhammer Online is thee game to play!

O yah, and if ur bored, check out the gamespot discussion / gameplay video , Warhammer CG Trailer , amonst others :)

Hope to see you on the battlefield. WAAARG. :evil:

No, people. Do notwaste your money. You will find an unfinished pile of crap waiting for you after you spend that $50. This MMORPG is not finished, and won't be finished for a long time.

You idiots who are about to reply to me and say, "What MMORPG is ever finished?" are blind, and you have never been apart of another game's release. Warhamer Online has too many flaws to count, and it is a complete waste of your time and money.

Don't just take my word for it! Regardless of my large listof complaints about the game, check out this review:http://www.gamespot.com/pc/rpg/warhammeronline/player_review.html?id=610787

because he captures the game perfectly. No, to this I say: Do not waste your money. I have logged over 50 hours on that game and I participated in a little closed beta myself, so I've experienced all I need to experience to tell me if it's a good game or not.

If it has any content at all, most of it is unfinished. The sound is terrible, and it runs like complete **** on anyone's computer. I have an acquaintence I met on Warhammer Alliance who says he can run Crysis on maximum settings (AA on full) with 1600x1200 resolution or higher, and he has terrible screen tear with Warhammer. Its graphics...simply put, really suck. Yeah. They're not good, at all. Guild Wars has better graphics than it does. It's graphics are terrible, and Mythic themselves have said that "they will work on the graphics post-release." If you had the common sense to know when to release a game, then surely you would have half a brain to know to finish the graphics beforereleasing it--idiots.

Warhammer Online is a waste of your time and money. Avoidthis game, because it is just horrible.

as soon as i loaded the page for that review and it said he spent less than 10 hours i stopped reading.

First off, wasn't WAR only released like 2 weeks ago? So it should be "unfinished" and should have a lot of flaws since it's been running for only 2 weeks.

Secondly, 2 days and 2 hrs+ worth of playing isn't actually that long at all. To get the most out of the game, you should at least give it a week.

Thirdly, of course its graphics aren't as good as Guild Wars, Guild Wars has one of the best MMO graphics.

And finally, about that review...only 10 hrs or less that guy played it for, so his opinion doesn't really mean very much.

Lol sorry but you fail miserably

Professional reviews (GameFocus, G4TV, All Of Them) says this game had a very stable launch, and polished when it comes to an MMO. Remember WoW at launch? Yah, its much better than that. AoC? Dont get me started....

You link a player review of someone that played the game for about 20 minutes .... (the quest he named is the 2nd quest you get at lvl 1).

It's always great when people like you post random crap when you haven't even played the game. I don't get it...what do you get out of trying to put down a game you haven't played...what are these "uninfinished" problems you have?

Yes Warhammer Universe was created before Warcraft but WoW was created before Warhammer Online....did Warcraft rip off stuff originally from warhammer damn right they did!....but did Warhammer Online rip off stuff from WoW...Yes they did! and if you don't believe me look it up...there is actually interviews with the creators of Warhammer stating that they did take some of the functions from World of Warcraft.

The only MMO I played, enjoyed, and was motivated to continue playing was World War II: Online. It was actually different.

Warhammer? No thanks. Same crap, different name.
