I think Jeff Hickman (Senior *something* from Mythic) said that that Warhammer Online is full playable right now and they can could launch the game today if they wanted to (All conent is done, texture etc) . They just wanna polish and balance it right now.

Actually only one. Although it's probably already finished, they just haven't told us what it is yet.

Wrong. I can think of more than one that hasn't been added and half a dozen that havent been tested since masteries were added.

Not like balance isn't one of the most important parts or anything ^^

Obviously the latter. It's quite clear however that the game wasn't anywhere near *done* if balancing isn't even close to done yet. Having the graphics fini8shed and calling a game done is a ridiculous statement when it comes to a PvP game. Obviously it's just to claim "polish" because it's such a popular remark since the WoW release, even though every MMO ever always extended their release to "improve our game, to add more content and to make it better", which in essence = polish but before noone would have mentioned it like that.

 I'm definately not gonna praise a developer for using a popular word now for doing something that most developers have been doing for years (extending their game to improve upon it) or for doing what they should have done for years and are finally doing now because their game will flop since people know better now. (Going for a decent release state of the game like WoW has upped the bar to (bar server overloads))

Hmmm fairly certain the only class now missing is the final elven one.

We have Witch Hunter, Warrior, Priest, Bright Wizard, Knight of the Blazing Sun for Empire

Ironbreaker, Hammerer, Runepriest and Engineer for Dwarves

Chosen, Zealot, Magus and Marauder for Chaos

Blackguard, Witch Elf, Disciple of Khaine and Sorceress fo the Dark Elves

Swordmaster, Shadow Warrior and Archmage for the Elves

So yep only 1 class missing and they have stated that that class will be revealed in the next news letter.

As for the balance testing thats what they are doing between now and Open Beta so yeah they have plenty of time to get it right.

Just my 2 cents

Blackgaurd we know next to nothing about and has not been tested in beta. Same for the Knights of the Blazing sun. Magus was pulled for some odd reason and has been absent from the lastest conventions. ALL greenskin/dwarves have not been tested since certain things have changed.

So while only 1 class remains to be unveiled it is actually an entire pairing and 4 classes that still need to be tested under the new systems. Go check out
