the other factors that makes war a failiure.

1) is the poorly and confusing quests, wtf why should we be running aimless around.

2) technical issues with vista making the game crash to desktop quite often.

3) poor customer service and response.

4) long queue times for scenarios average 15-30mins and level in-balance (well they could hv done this the counterstrike way which makes it more skill dependent rather than higher levels having quite an advantage in 1vs1 situations).

5) crappy graphics wow has been graphics.

6) no ffa pvp between factions only in designated zones wtf....

just my 2 cents

 

 

 

 

1. and you dont do this in WoW? lol

2. I ran it on Vista... Crashes?

3. I had one problem with a game time card, resolved in a few min over the phone

4. Man i remember waiting for an hour to get into warsong gultch, oh and games been on for a month if your such a wow fanboi then you should know how inbalanced it was at it's launch

5. "crappy graphics wow has been graphics" - doesnt make sense but if your trying to says WAR has bad graphics and WoW's is better, i think you have problems, with your eyesight

6. same with wow

lmao, I was never a wow fan infact i left wow after just 1 year when i realised it's basically Everquest in disguise
 

i bought into the war hype and at launch i even bought the collectors edition but when i started to actually play it i realised its a crappy game with poor design and 3rd world progamming standards.

why can I play AOC w/o much problems whereas with war i keep getting crashed (aka memory leaks and other problems), there a time when i crashed to desktop and guess what the customer service did not have a clue how to fix my problem and I had highlight others which had the same problem and the fix that helped them, this took 3/4 days for them to fix.

well, if u like war then play it, does bother me one inch, I am just voicing my opinion that war is all hype poor quest design and customer service, ask youself one question why do war not have a forum for ppl like us to post our frustration what do they have to hide

just my 2 cents:p


 

Wow, memories are short, aren't they.  WAR had one of the worst launches in MMO history, both technically and in gameplay.  The OOM/CTD problems alone are still ongoing (mostly).  It's absolutely hysterical that you'd compare its launch to AoC's.  By comparison, AoC was a far more complete game than WAR still is, and has been far, FAR more stable.

Additionally, MYTHIC provids absolutely horrific customer service for WAR, just look at the lack of official forums in this day and age.  Just pathetic.  Personally, I've had fewer problems dealing with FC than with MYTHIC.

WAR isn't perfect, but AoC was and still is a lot better in performance.

Wow.  Just... wow.


 

Fixed.

exactly..

i am sorry both AoC and WAR failed. i think it is obvious that mythic paid some reviewers to give 100% score. it is also obvious that WAR failed big time, it drew a bigger crowd (aimed at kids) and therefore there is more failure talk. naturally, my boy comes home from school and tells me how upset all his friends are with WAR that the game crashes and is just boring. Hopes were high and dashed. will never buy a mythic game again. unbalanced classes, crap population, shit fed ex quests, no social aspect, no one talks just plain failhammer...


 

Ah, the "post-fixer".  Is there any more mentally challenged type of forum participant - one that brings less insight or valuable information to a forum - than a habitual "post-fixer"?  I applaud you for your lack of creativity and thought.  Your post almost invalidates itself, with no help required, just by identifying yourself as a "post-fixer".

I am sorry you can't take my opinion as it differs from your own, maybe your lacking somewhere?

As to your assertions, my experience with the game is pretty much diametrically opposed to yours, which makes me wonder if you've ever actually played the game.  In my opinion, this game has better class balance than most MMOs, and they are designed more for group play, which is the crux of the game.

Again you neglect to take my opinion on board and as it differs from yours therefore it is wrong? I could always link the thousands of posts on say warhammer alliance that share my viewpoint, they have to post there you see because Jacobs cant take crititism. Just like yourself.. or respect different viewpoints because it differs from your own perfect little experiences.

The population on many of the servers is very good.  As one example, the population on Ostermark is very good, both in number and Order/Destro balance.

No they are not - please do not lie. Pick 5 servers blindly and then create a new character, good luck in trying to find 10 different people before you hit level 15. "Some" like what 4? from 50 are good.. rofl

"FEDEX" quests are a staple of every game than has quests, which might be a huge surprise to you (the world is also round, which would probably also surprise you, post-fixer).

insults. that is very manly of you

Social aspect is what you make of it.  Join a guild, if you can find one that would accept you.

3 guilds on 3 different servers now, population still sucks.. guilds were not bad, just not many people in them.

Lots of talk goes on while playing the game.  I know, I've heard the "no talk" BS before, too.  When they added the region chat, that improved markedly.  Oh, and again, join a decent guild.

From all 10 people? yep fasinating, 3 of those 10 ppl are all kids playing in my house. Kids are not the really social types for stimulating chat are they..

Anyway, those are my thoughts on WAR.  If you have trouble understanding any of my points, I'll rework it using smaller words.  You are, after all, a post-fixer.


 Game floped i reckon here is the winning t-shirt

 

It flopped because it was released to early behind a lot of bullshit from the devs. good intentions went to waste.
