WAR (Warhammer Online)

I don't understand why everyone doesn't want the games being released to succeed.  I am very much hoping for the success and prosperity of both AoC and WAR so that the MMO market has more choices, options, and variety.  AoC is still in beta and you titled your post the way you did...  It is off to a rocky start but you are the perfect example of 'the grass is greener on the other side'.  If WAR has a rocky OB are you going to go post on the next game forum you find with something similar? 

I do support all games polishing as long as necessary and I hope that Funcom can pull off a decent launch and AoC can be successful as I wish the same things of WAR.

 Aye, whoever thinks that choices are a bad thing in the MMO market needs to step back and look at the limited options we currently have. I have always wanted the best of these two games and love each of their IPs. If you don't like one, or either, of them that is cool, because people have different tastes. We don't need all this "xxxxx will flop, and yyyyy is better" or "xyz is just zyx 2" talk. If you don't like the product them its time to move on.

You're deriving your opinions from a open beta, AKA: Stress Test.

Many many kinks in the game will be gone at release or shortly after, WAR can't touch AoC. They have released a lot of information on Seige Battles, Mounts and Crafting, do your research. WAR is just going to be a game for the little kiddies of WoW to go to, so I'm quite happy about that.

Also, AoC is hardly flopping, they are doing pretty well. They WOULD have lost customers if they delayed the game for a third time, they are releasing it at the right time. I am in the exact opposite position as the thread-starter, I was very much looking forward to WAR, I had pre-ordered my copy, then I looked into AoC and cancled that pre-order and put my cash down on AoC. Best move ever.

ProfRed and vmoped are right.

And it is worse than You think. If WAR flops too the whole MMO genre is in serious trouble. Not dead but in intensive care for sure.

I was mad at first, but then the following week when that new podcast came out i was was all giddy again.

And ya i am glad it got delayed ever new focus test i see huge improvements.

You my dear sir, should do your research properly. While having your own opinion is perfectly fine, dont lie about another game, a lot of kids will be attracted to AoC because AoC have boobs, WAR has also released info on siege battles and crafting, i could easily turn this whole thread into a flamewar but frankly, i wont. Next time you take your precious time to post, make sure you have RESEARCHED (long word innit) what you are about to post about instead of just throwing random stuff out which dont create a base for a proper argument.

I agree, you think of AoC is a mature game wont see any of that, but it has boobs so you know the kiddys /teens/hardcore nerds will flock there

Lol I wondered when the WAR Fanboi's would crawl out of the woodwork , " Sigh" people....
