Just a simple question here as to why you will not be playing the game. Too busy with your current mmo ? Waiting for other games ? Whatever the reason may be just put it here. No bashing the game, keep it clean and have fun!

I will be buying the game.  I will keep playing the game if it has good PVE.  PVP is the primary selling point of the game, but as with all PVP games (mostly FPS) I usually get bored after a few months.  CoD4 for example, was and is a great game.... ,but kill after kill got a little repetitious and I eventually quit and moved onto another game.  All in all I hear WAR will have great PVE and I am hoping for that.  However, if it does not than I will play for a few months and put it down most likely.

My Top 3 List:
1) EverQuest
2) Dark Age of Camelot
3) Star Wars Galaxies

Only reason really is if the CTD / RvR Latency persists through the rest of beta. I'll just wait a while before activating my accounts once its launched.

The game is fine, but if I can't play it for more than 15-30 minutes without having to memory dump, whats the point.

I used to be able to come up with a ton of reasons, but now that i've played in beta I can't come up with anything.

Yeah for me I'm not 100% convinced yet this game will have alot of replayability. I know it is new and alot will try it bt I think for me it is best I wait and see how things go after launch before trying it for myself.

Firstly like many mmos the game will not be a finished product when it is released. Yes I know Mythic has announced this to everyone and what they do release may very well be in good working condition but it doesnt change the fact that 4 cities will be missing along with a number of classes. Considering that there were only going to be 4 classes on each side that limits my choice even further. Yes I know that means 24 classes in total which is more than previous games but I like to be creative with what I play as and WAR doesnt offer that level of variety. I'm sure the game will be quite good fun as it is but I would rather wait for 6 months or a year when hopefully the game will be closer to what it was originally meant to be.

Also I am playing EVE at the moment and I just cant see myself going from a game with lots of choice into one that limits what I can be and do and forces me to pick cookie-cutter classes along with everyone else. I still hate the fact that human wizards all have to be fire mages! Isnt that gonna look a bit silly?

Also I'm a bit tired of all these story-driven games to be honest. Its about time that more sandbox-style online games started coming out where the players create the situations rather than us getting told what to do and where to go. I will still probably give WAR a bash at some point though if I get bored with EVE.

It´s not my kind of game. I cant really find anything with it that would appeal to my game style. I´m looking for something more sandbox, low fantasy, with a realistic art style and good character customization. At the moment the only game on my list is Fallen Earth.

In the middle still at the moment.

- European service is looking as if it will be sub par

- Same as the poster above me: constant CTDs. Waiting for a miracle patch at the moment

- The game is decent, but it feels like most of the other MMOs (just with a more fleshed out PvP part), and it just doesn't get me passionate or excited. Again, nothing wrong with the game (content is there, features are there), but coupled with the above 2 reasons, I'm not sure if it will be worth it for me.

I am waiting for OB and Head Start and I will see what that brings, in terms of service and patches for nasty issues. If it isn't better or solved, I won't be picking up my CE that I preordered.

I'm huge Fan of Warhammer 40K but the medieval era... not so much. I played WOW for 6 months and really got bored then my entire guild and I left for other games. Most of us went back to FPS while others back to SWG O_o.....

All in all, I'm waiting AION and Stargate Online. I'm currently hanging out in EVE and i'm quite happy there.

Why would i play warhammer when i can play vanguard , for me though it looks to much like WoW. Plus i was looking at peoples screens and the way they named armor and spells and stuff is like 5 year old dribble and i cant stand shit like that in my games

It just doesn't look like anything new to me.  It's the same old, same old in a shiny new package.  Classes, levels, end game is raiding or pvp...no thanks, been there done that.  I'm with the other people waiting for a good sandbox game that doesn't depend on gear or require the players to min/max.  Darkfall's concept is fantastic, now if only someone would actually make it a reality, I'd probably play that.

Sooo many games like Fallout 3, left4dead and spore are coming out that'll keep me busy till into next year and then I'll look into WAR to see how it's doing because atm the game is very buggy and suffers from balance issues and just isn't very fun. So I'll give the game 6 months to see how they've progressed but if the population is low then I wont bother.

Thats pretty much what I thought too

......although I was thinking of rubbing a cheese grater over my face instead. I guess the self-inflicted torture theme is still there though.

Because I will be playing Ryzom until they turn the lights off... again.

That and its focus on PvP isn't something I am to entirely thrilled about.  "It's WAR" yeah I know.  I am tired of fighting against people, I do it all day at work and at home.  I enjoy doing other things than just fighting as well, and enjoy a good mature, adult, and friendly community.  So overall, I will be busy in my current MMO, there's nothing to entice me as a player to come join WAR.

Won't be buying/playing WAR because Mythic went with GOA to handle the European part of things. After playing (putting up with) Dark Age of Camelot being run into the ground by GOA I will not be giving my money to a bunch of idiots again.

Maybe one day I may just pick up a US copy when I can get it for about £5 including shipping

I'm going to wait a few months to play any new MMO. I've been burned too many times in the past buying new games that turned out to be still in beta. I'm going to let the devs work out the kinks first and read some reviews before I consider trying Warhammer.

After the whole AoC debacle I have become increasingly more sceptical of new MMOs. Even with playing beta versions of games I am still going to wait at least a month before I pony up the money, because honestly I just don't wat to get burned again. Add onto that the fact that I recently sold of my desktop for a shiny new laptop, and picked up a Xbox 360, I am just not sure if I will have any time for PC games anymore.
