warhammer

[littledeath]

can any one tell me some stuff about this game besides the stuff i will find on the web cuz if it is as good as it looks i might quit WoW

[John Krayton]

Number 1: That post made no sense.

Number 2: This game sucks at a low level, the game is cruel that way.

Number 3: When you're higher in Raids & Dungeons, it's the best thing that ever happened to you.

Number 4: Making tons of characters will make you desperate for 70, I speak from experience.

Number 5: Don't give up on the low's, Don't expect players to give you money, or gear, or ALWAYS run you through Instances, it will NOT happen. You must play the game long enough until you INTRODUCE yourself to the community.

Keep the chin high & promise you'll have a GREAT time in World of Warcraft.

Respect & Regards,

Lightsky.

Heres some other stuff that makes WAR look like it will own


http://www.warhammeronline.com/english/home/index.php official page

http://www.warhammeronline.com/engli...o/armiesofWAR/ armies page

http://www.warhammeronline.com/engli...gameBackstory/ game backstory. If you want more backstory there are 25 years of army books and novels to go through. If you get a chance check out the backstories on high elves and dark elves, one of the best written stories i ever read. All of the army backstories i have ever seen are awesome though.

Other good points about WAR

*No healbot classes, the healers have to dps in order to heal
*No CC other than snares and stuns that last 1 second, every squishy class has some way of getting people off of them also that does not require robbing the other player of character control
*Collision detection, opposing faction players can't through eachother, tanks get to protect people
*Taunts that work in pvp by making the target do 50% less damage to everybody but the tank
*Detaunts that work in pvp by making the target do 50% less damage to you
*You can level through pvp
*you can loot players and its worth doing
*24 classes designed around 4 architypes, tank, dps/support, ranged dps, melee dps
*The game is balanced around group pvp. period
*Tactics that work like talents in WoW except you can only use a few at a time and you can switch them between battles based on what you want to excell at doing, instead of 50g respec
*The backstory and Warhammer Lore OWNS THE *@@@ OUT OF WOW

probably a lot of other stuff im forgetting. Ive spent some time researching the game and watching podcasts and it looks amazing. I know its 6 or 7 months from release but if it delivers..........

[Enfeebleness]

Still will actually have to play the game before i decide to leave WoW for it.


Edit: Edited because now i made myself feel retarded so i'm just going to leave it edited.

[poisonousone]

Anyone in the beta testing? I signed up but haven't heard anything yet =(

[sineater213]

yeah im beta testing right now I can tell you guys that its not worth leaving wow for this imo. its like counter strike mmo style
