WAR (Warhammer Online)

I keep seeing lots of posts,  that people are leaving WoW for WAR and that is fine. But im warning you now, if WAR is anything like DAoC, it will be a LOT different then WoW in terms of controls, movement, combat, skill system, RvR, ect....

Same thing happened with AoC and look what happened. People expecting a WoW killer and they play it and get disappointed. Wasn't that bad of a game but people expected to much.

I have faith in WAR and I believe itll do great. But just understand that it wont be like WoW and doesn't need to be to be good.

shh no time for stiring up trouble with the natives

WAR is just another mmorpg, it does nothing new to innovate and controls and plays the same as we have now.

It is not? Damn, this changes my whole life

Every MMO is different in it's own way. Don't expect WAR to be a WOW or a GW (Guild Wars) for it's pvp aspect.

It does innovate with Public Quests and RvR...the guys @ 1UP(latest podcast) have even said that  Mythic should have patented it because everybody will be copying them.

Players left AoC because it was released in a horrid state, not because of game mechanics.  If EA/Mythic plans a similar launch, including pulling advertised features days before launch, then yeah WAR will be doomed to a similar fate and rightfully so.

As to mechanics, WAR is a mill standard Themepark with a few added gimics, like RvR.  If you like WoW, chances are you'll like WAR.

Oh no the doom and gloom prophets are here! Run for your lives everyone!

This is what I dont get, why is it such a big deal?
Why so scared?

Its like something isnt adding up...

If you all have pcs nice enough to run it and have a high speed int connection, you cant tell you cant afford the 50 bucks or the monthly subscription.

If your playing a mmo, it will still be there when you get back.

If your not playing a mmo, I would think your pining to play something.

I think I got it

FEAR OF CHANGE.

Fear of the unknown.

Please, dont spread YOUR fear.
I for one am looking forward to something new.
WoW has been good to me and Im ready to move on.

New classes, new abilities, new playstyle, new PeeVeePee

Im game, why arent you?

Theres TONSSS of thing why this game is so diferent than WoW but cant speak atm :P
