Why dont the most people read my whole first post before responding?

First it was about the Wow players who was COMPLAINING
about War beeing a Wow clone or whatever

I did not say all where complaining so If you dont Complain why does it bother you?
I dont say that the game are useless. I say its easy/boring
I Say that if you like Wow you will love War
I Say that War got better graphics

Well I said what I think about the game why does it bother you?
I think some people realy have to read the whole post before responding-
Like he knows everything and are the best :)

did the OP actually just say 'grownupstyle'?

 

Didn't know what to call it heh

It is somehow more realistic than many other mmorpg's
You dont got your spacesword that looks like glas
Or a korean superarmor that does not protect your body. its only for the looks

The game is age 18+ from what ive seen
It is a nice game :)

ah, I see your are from Sweden.   That explains it.  The word is 'mature'.

Hi. I hate WoW. I know about the Warhammer tabletop game. Been dabbing at it before WoW was even a though.

Not sure about NOW, but I know watching the earlier Warhammer Online beta videos, it looks exactly like WoW. Of course it doesn't say anything about the gameplay. Just wanted to let you know all people who says WAR looks like WoW isn't a "Fanboy".

I am sick of the WAR fanboys who believe WAR is 100% original and that WH created orks, elves, dwarfs etc. create stylised graphics and created the Interenet.

If you honestly dont believe that WARs development has not been heavily influenced by WoW then you need to get out more.

The funniest part about all the WAR is just WOW threads is, alot of us have played wow, and hate it.........yet we are excited about WAR. Call me a fanboy I really dont give a crap. I dont like wow, I am verry excited about WAR. Makes no sense I would be looking forward to one if it was a carbon copy (which is what clone means) of the other.

Its all good though. I like playing with mature people who can think for themself. Thoes of you that swear WAR is a WoW clone are not the type of people I want to share my gametime with and hopefully since you think they are the same, I wont have to put up with you.

Well yes ofcourse they have. But its not a WoW clone. Its not the same universe either.
Mythic uses an terrain that they know will work and can handle a couple of hundreds
on the RvR Field and not crash because many people does not have AOC computers :)

WoW where heavily influenced By Warhammer also.
so I dont realy know what some Wow boys are complaining about.

Warcraft borrows from Warhammer and Warhammer borrows from Warcraft
its a fair deal,

Yes I know but I wrote Grownupstyle because thats what I came up with when I where writing the thing :)

funny thing is everyone forgets that EVERYTHING is based off books and myths written between the dawn of time and (roughly) 40 years ago.  everything from classes to races to worlds to quests, its all taken from books and ideas that others have created years and years ago.

all these stupid debates over who copied who is irrelevent and stupid unless you state a time period for your comparison.  WoW copied Warhammer  if you are taking the past 20 years as your comparison timeframe.  they both copied storytellers and books if we take anything over 40 years.  they both copied DnD if we take a 30 year timeframe.

Seems to be a trend for the WoW fanboi kiddies to put down any other new game than WoW coming out.

AoC has been constantly bombarded by these children and have been angering us over on the AoC forums now for over a month. Now, we are labeled as "evil" and "immature" simply because we are flaming every single WoW fanboi who comes into our forums proclaiming their 4yr old game's superiority over a new-not-even-out mature and graphic game.

WoW = FAIL

AOC = FTW

WAR = FTW

insert graphic of beating a dead horse here------->   X

OK, so this topic has been brought up a dozen times before in these forums, OP doesn't seem to realize that so might as well play along.

First, there's no reason to assume that the people calling WAR a WOW clone are all WOW fanbois.  I'm sure some are, but just as many are WOW haters, and hence they bash WAR because they feel it brings nothing new to the table.

I myself watched the Mexican standoff video the other night, and had to say, you know, I see why people think it looks like WOW, it really sort of does.  Sure, I can see the differences, but the similarities are there and of course people make the comparison.  This isn't a bad thing btw, unless of course you hate that graphical style. (which many do).

BTW, in the video I was impressed with the smoothness that the characters moved, the combat looked fun, and other than it appeared people were jumping back and forth between a pvp and no pvp zone, (reminded me of the Tauren Mills days in WOW) it really made me want to play WAR.

Who cares what other folks think about WAR?  I'm going to play it no matter what, that I'm sure of.

The question is: Have YOU played WAR? I mean longer than 5 mins at a public showing? ^^

I have not played WAR but I have played Dark Age Of Camelot alot.
Daoc had RvR and
RvR with your guild is the funniest thing ever :)

Having played DAoC myself, let me just say that you are in for a surprise if you expect WAR to be the true spiritual successor of DAoC....

You should really avoid making such threads if all you know about a game comes from hype and carefully picked footage and developer infos. It is of course perfectly fine to have high hopes for a game - but you can not claim superiority for a game that you have not even tested yet. Believe me, there are people on these boards who have a much more educated opinion on WAR.

The one thing i hope they bring to WAR from DAoC is /stick

i dont care if people disagree. its a imo thing. it makes people actually go toe to toe with eachother and win/loss is depending on your choice of armor, class, and skills. as in wow where alot of it is just dependant on who has better FPS. Jumping around like an idiot isnt a skill!

ya know what we called people back in the day who ran around the world constantly hitting the jump key? n00bz :P

Funny, that's the same i call them in WoW and I assume the the same would hold true for the people that actually believe that jumping actually makes a difference in WoW like all these people claiming so.

Would it piss the WoW fanboys if I said that WoW was an Everquest clone? I mean it did come out before WoW alongside UO and I think it was the first 3d MMO, UO being 2d right? Anyways just because something shares similarities doesn't mean its a clone.

Edit: Oh I forgot about Diablo 2 but I don't think its consider an MMO though. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Actually... your assumption is incorrect. I think the people complaining about WAR being similer to WoW are actually WoW Haters, not Fanbois... who are thusly afraid to go near anything that smells even remotely like WoW. And to them WAR smells like WoW, and anyone who can't understand how one would arrive at the position is just silly, I mean Warcraft was based on Warhammer after all.

Perhaps instead of just crying about how stupid people are, you should focusing on what WAR brings to the table, because honestly, I haven't seen a damned thing in these forums that is not either AoC bashing, or calling people who compare WAR to WoW stupid without providing anything to demonstrate what sets WAR apart, other than claiming that the stupid idiots who think WAR looks like WoW should have figured it out on their own by now.

Its easier and better to just go somewhere else for true Warhammer Online discussions like at WarhammerAlliance.com  War - Rvr.net and a few others.  no offense to the MMORPG.com mods but you know your site is filled with goons, trolls and zealots that take over whatever forum they feel obligated too depending on the crap storm from supposed opposing game.   Since AoC is having major issues in its forums & game...WAR is having major issues in its Forum here on MMORPG.com   

Honestly AoC & WAR posters (actual real posters and not the not so random anymore troll) should ban together and just ignore these repeated dead horse topics & idiot flame war threads that keep popping up in BOTH our forums.   Or just report every single one till they do something about the infestation problem.

Normally I like a good fight & heated argument about a game but these are turning more into retaliation & defensive threads instead of debates on whats going on with a game.

thats all recent behavior that just exploded after the AoC open beta started for whatever reason we just have to deal with it for now.  Any threads that actually have to do with the game mechanics that have come out recently like Guilds and Cities etc etc disappear under the boggle of old ancient threads being revived by idiots who don't check the original start date of the thread or by trolls that have nothing better to do than fire up all the usual WAR posters.   Infact over half the posters i've seen in the WAR forums lately are not usual WAR forum posters.

As a dedicated AoC poster.... I can get onboard with everything you said. We should make one of those commercials for Global Warming... the one's where they have like Nancy Pelosi and Newt Gingrich together...

Yeah...

Or we can just reply to any troll flamer with this link:

(No it is not Rick Astley, it is something much, much worse...)

I'm not going to quote anyone...because I'm just lazy.

Moving on, I've played WoW for a long time. I have 3 70's played all the classes, played both sides, blah, blah, blah. I'm not here to defend WoW since I quit for good recently. My reason for quitting is was really simple and not over anything like guild drama, gold spammers, kids playing...it just got boring. The end game is the same repetitive things over and over, some guilds raiding 5-7 days a week, pvping obsessively, and for what? Shinies.

More recently, the -new- endgame was an idea to put all the 70's on both sides together on an island that causes lag no no other, PVPing...or I should say Ganking like mad, and it's the same quests over...and over again. It's like being stuck on a subway in Japan during Battle Royale

But it's not the game's fault. The fan base of WoW is why Blizzard has decided to make the game practically idiot proof, because people want a game they can have bragging rights as a God with the smallest amount of effort. It's a profit margin, the kids and adults alike are willing to spend so much money to play and have claim to Godhood.

In games, there hasn't been an original idea since Pong, so I don't see why everyone is ready to throw down over who copied who. If WoW fans want to cry copycats, let them. Warhammer is older, but it's the cornerstone of World Conquering Fantasy-gaming to begin with, so just chill. You want to get start around the beginning, try playing Risk which started in 1957.
