Do you have any idea how far away the taste of apples is from the taste of oranges? Apart from the fact that they both are round, they are nowhere *near* similar.

 

this argument is mentally retarded and should just end cuz it has nothing to do with anything. the client has steadily gotten better for me so idk what pos computer or internet some of you have but its not always the developers fault for the game crashing etc.

The game is weak from the core. The patches are nice, and I have no doubt they'll try to do whatever they can to please the players they have now, but what we got is far from what was promised, and to even get RvR to DAoCs standards, they would need to rework the entire game which is never going to happen. We have WoW with keep sieges. Some people like that. Personally, I thought they could at least do as well as they did with DAoC.

Wow with keep sieges? You seem to be well educated.

I totally agree with you. Mythic can patch this game all they like but they would have to completely redesign it to turn it into a good game.

I agree I haven't seen anythign addressing the core problems.  This is not even an RvR game.  Just some throw meat on the table and hope there is a brawl type game.  Gets old fast.  And still does that rather poorly because of the poor design such as the way the tiers and lakes are setup

Fill in the blanks and you have the basic structure of posts in this site.

The game is blunt to you, but for me, it's very enjoyable.

Warhammer has solid foundations and now that its population has stabilized, it will slowly grow larger and better. It deserves so, because Mythic has done a great job in patching the game. I'd suggest trying out WAR after 1.1 goes live since various issues that annoyed a lot of gamers have been fixed like UI responsiveness and additional content is being steadily added (new classes and RvR influence rewards).

Mythic means bussiness and mmorpg competition is a marathon not a sprint race. If you want to talk doom and glood please do so after 6 months have passed since release. Till then, keep in mind that after 1.06, server activity increased greatly, even had a couple of full servers!

I too find the game very enjoyable and am very happy with the responsiveness from the dev team.  The game is shaping up nicely and I will continue to play for a long time.   MMO launches are always a little messy and I know... I've played all these at launch - EQ,DAOC,Horizons,WOW,L2,DnL,Mourning (yes mourning), and now WAR.  

As far as MMO's go, I think it is the best MMO out there for me.

If you haven't seen patch 1.06 and the notes for 1.1, do it, its refreshing. I am very surprised that EA decided to stick with it and keep funding the big and pricy team working on the game. If you have read any of my posts on this forum before then you know that I didn't buy this game because it was an unfinished piece of crap with a good core.

It seems like 1.1 will bring the game to the state it should have been at launch. (better late than never) :)

I think its a good thing that a company finally decided to keep playing instead of running in fear (Funcom). We really need more competition in the MMO sector and this can only bring good things for the gamers. We all benefit from this

I sincerely hope that their sales pick up after this, Mythic deserves it, they have proven that they can listen to the community and work on what is truly wrong with the game to make it a more enjoyable experience. If they keep this up I have no doubt that this could be the best MMO out there and I'm only a few good patches away from buying it :)

 

Good work Mythic (Screw GOA)

 

 

 

I waited for war for close to 4 years and only ended up playing for 3 weeks. The game was nothing like they marketed it to be, they rushed the game out which they said they would never do. I am a huge warhammer fan but the version of the warhammer world EA made makes me sick. I have never in a game seen such dull environments and gameplay. i wanted this game to be great but its horrible, to put it bluntly.

Did you follow WAR before mythic took over?  Now that would have been a good game.

It's ok for people not to like WAR. Game's not for everyone and with titles like darkfall promising the impossible people's expectations are unrealistic imo.

What is really annoying however is bashing WAR so hard while everyone was oh SO MUCH more forgiving when AoC hit the shelves back when it was buggy as hell and at a much worse state than WAR ever was.

War is shaping up nicely, thats for sure.

I have to admit, I didnt follow war back then and so my knowledge is limited, but it seemed more like another EQ pve grinding/raiding clone where you could play.... halfings! The race with the least impact in Warhammer universe with a wooping 1 unit in special army book.

Good game? I doubt it... but even if it was good, WoW would have pulverized it anyway, so its best that Mythic took over.
