WAR (Warhammer Online)

 I gave it at 8 so far. The main aspects I like include the grittier feel to the art without trying to be a tech demo (AoC), the feel of being in a constant warzone (like TR) and the stability of the client especially at launch. I also love the variations on a theme of the class types.

I am sure the score will change after 3 or so months of play because I truly believe that an MMO takes such an amount of time to really get to know and commit to, unless you instantly hate it. I just hope it is positive and I continue to play alongside WOW and Eve rather than get bored as I level.

I think a pat on the back to GOA for a great game relase and certainly not a disaster of marketing meets reality that unfortunatly have hit too many titles.

I gave the game a 9.  I almost gave it an 8 but a few of my issues are strickly personal and related to the guild Im stuck in at the moment.  All personal issues aside the game launch was fine, the content works, there's a few performance bugs, a random minor loot bug, and the server queuing is annoying but for an MMO its all super minimal which is nice.

Having all the content working is the most important to me, performance issues are just going to happen no matter what you do with an MMO game.

 people love the game and are having fun.

all it matters eheh

WAR being what it is....IS A FUN GAME!!!! Not, it is not my perfect MMO...but I am happy to accept it for what it is and play and have fun accordingly!

I give it a 5. And I know most wont agree with my score, but the reason I gave it that score is because I stopped playing it already.

I was an SE customer and had access to the open beta and headstart when the servers werent so clogged up. I could log in and play with my guild and friends with no waiting. Now, I am put in que and have to wait 20 to 30 minutes to get in, forcing me to go onto another server if I want to play. They created cloned servers in hopes that this would reduce some of the load on the most populated servers, which did not improve my server's population. When you have 30 to 40 people in your guild who had CE accounts and didnt want to move to a cloned server, you are pretty much stuck.

The other reason for the score is that I am bored with it. It sort of reminds me of DAoC, where you level and gear up for PvP. The RvR in this game is boring and unbalanced.THe PvE is fun but how many PQs can you do before you realize how redundant it all is.

6 here. 

Graphics are okay, but nothing to write home about.

In game chat is near non-existant.

PvP seems meaningless to me.  It's almost like a fantasy version of a game like Warrock.  Spawn on opposite sides of the map, race to the middle, die, respawn, rinse, repeat.  You get the flag, they get the flag.  Not really meaningful at all IMO.

The one thing that I do like about WAR is how they handle grouping and solo players.  I spend zero time trying to find a group in this game.  If I need one, the game kind of just puts me into one sort of.

Anywho, it seems pretty shallow so far.  Not really my typeof MMO, so I guess I'm a little biased.

      At the 271 vote mark it looks like the majority of people like the game......The problem with these boards is that a few naysayers sound like 99 percent of the people hate the game when it is only a very small minority......I think every game needs a rating system on each board.......

A 1,2,3 already after a few  votes. Yes, people who dislike this game for whatever reason are really an unbiased, fair bunch. Goes for the 10's as well, in a way. Though they are closer to my 9; highly entertaining, kick ass game, imo.

Too bad most folks who like the game so much that they forgot about these boards for a while won't be here to vote, they have a damn sweet mmo to play :)

yea, the only reason I've been posting so much, is i finally gota  computer at work. If i were at home, i'd be playing. I gave it a 9.

Hell after 700+ votes it's still 8.93 on the mmorpg rating.  I was surprised by that as much as the votes on this poll.
