WAR (Warhammer Online)

A side from the FAQ's, mass videos of game play and interviews, what ELSE would you like to see at launch.

Besides a smooth launch. hehe

For me would be cool to see weather effects, like a heavy rain/snow storm that would cut you distance viewing in 1/2 or more.

Would be cool to be in RVR in a heavy snow storm, its so bad you have to be pretty close to see anyone not to mention the enemy. LOL....

think you meant "expectations" not "expiations" in title

Working and posting threads not a good idea at times. hehe

thats a good question.  but what i expect and what i'd like in launch are 2 very different things.  I'd love to see orc growth/dwarf beard growth at launch, but they said it won't make it in, at least not till later on. (how would empire/elves change anyway? not very fair to leave those races out)

Weather and true night/day effects like the old DAOC had would be great. (use to really matter if you lit your torch to see or wore black)

But really, I just want to see a game launched with most of its promised features that doesn't leave me wishing they'd waited  6 more months before releasing it.  Seems to be hard to come by these days.

Yes I saw a vid with a heavy snowstorm, was pretty cool. I just want them to have all promised content basically, and I want them to smooth out the animations a bit (which I'm sure they'll do during beta so I'm not too worried).

Hopefully going to be great!!

I would like to see some personalized interaction from GMs and AGMs in the form of on-the-fly world questing. Most MMOGs don't have this (usually it was only the MUDs that did).

The GMs/AGMs could spawn mobs, play the part of NPCs giving out tips or clues, they could even play the mobs themselves for some more challenge and entertainment.

I think most MMOGs have lost the personal touch that MUDs used to have (and still do), and getting part of that back would go a long way to diversifying the game from all the others out there saturating the market.

they do have weather in the game. not sure on night/day don't think anyone has asked em.

about the only thing i think that might not make it is the character "growth" feature. where orcs get bigger, dwarfs beards can grow longer etc. that i heard they are only had a 25% of making it at launch.

 I expect the game to be fun and I expect it not to require 10+ hours per day to be competitive (ie. in order to not get 1 or 2 shotted in RvR).  If both of those expectations are met, I'll be a happy WAR player. :)

I have no expectations since every time I had them they were not met.  I'll just wait till it drops then make the call.

What I'd personally like to see is that they get rid of the names above enemy heads so that I can in fact stand behind a tree or crouch behind some bushes and not have my name be like gigantic arrow saying "I'M OVER HERE!!!!!".  You can keep the names above friendly people but the enemy thing is a bit annoying.  Other then that, whatever they manage to put in to the launch will more then likely run well.
