I see all this stuff on why the game is dying, stuff about pvp, and gear, and being like a bad wow clone or something. But you wanna know one of the biggest reasons this game flopped so bad? I'll tell you why. The women. Everyone knows sex sells in these games right? I mean let's see, all the asian mmos have hot ass bitches, WoW has hot women like night elves, blood elves, humans, draenei, trolls. Aion has those hot chicks too, AOC has naked bitches with big fat titties shaking in your face. What does War have? Fucking man faced shemale bitches. You seen the women in this game? They're ugly as shit man! AOC women aren't hot really, but least they can get naked and shit. War is a bunch of women in crappy ass clothes with man faces.

Wanna see what War women look like? Look at the tan elf chick with white hair(named Morgana) near the beginning of this crappy cartoon at like 25 seconds in, and see how ugly and jagged her shemale face looks. That is how all the women in War look, especially the elves. it's sad as shit, guess Mythic copied their face design from Morgana from this shit old cartoonXD

Wtf was Mythic thinking, lmfao They should have made the women look asian like the chicks in Aion. retarded ass mythic, and Paul Barnett did vids hyping up dark elves, going on and on about how hot they are, and they end up looking like fuckin shemales lmfao

Basically people only play warhammer for rvr(pvp).  Because their pve, crafting, economy sucks.

But their rvr isn't even good.  Due to class imbalance and population imbalance.

And doing the same rvr(pvp) thing over and over again get people bored fast.

lastly, it's hard to make expansion for warhammer.  To make a new expansion for wow, you just throw in a new zone.  To make expansion for warhammer you need to extend the rvr concept.

wow trolls are not hot. War diddnty fail because the women are ugly, War diddnt live up to the expectations of the consumer, and they gimped the game. Also a game hasnt failed until its closed down. The problem with IP mmos is that they attempt to cash in on fans of the IP, and end up with an overhyped mess. The launch sees alot of sales and large numbers, but once the fanboys of the IP start playing it, they realize that this isnt what they were expecting and leave. Add to that all of the people who want to leave wow for the next big thing, who end up complaining that it isnt as polished as wow, and then ake there asses back to wow.

It's pretty simple.  If WAR was fun, people would play it.  It's not (for various reasons), so they don't.

Okay so it's not really simple (because the "various reasons" are actually quite varied and would require a lot to fully explain.)  The main ones being that people don't like:

• getting stuck on rocks.
• ultra-shallow class mechanics.
• ultra-simplistic PVE mobs.

And spending ~10 mins attacking a stationary door isn't terribly amazing either.  At least in Planetside if something wasn't guarded we just ran in and began a capture countdown where the enemy could attempt to wrest control back.  Then again, Planetside didn't try to divide its focus between PVP and PVE either.  It knew the type of game it was, and that focus created a great game.

LOL - this person just doesn't quit do they?

That was one of Warhammer's greatest design flaws - it was a PvE/PvP game which tried to lure PvE players into PvP.

Well, PvE players don't like PvP. They never will. Any game which makes PvP tolerable to PvE fans will drive away the PvP players due to it being pointless and boring.

Mythic tried to please both groups and pleased neither.

New theory: Warhammer failed because the gameplay sucked and the graphics or art style for any game means very little.

You're all still ignoring the fact that no guy wants to play a game full of man faced shemales lmfao
