Well, for me it is because a game based on PvP is not my cup of tea... I do like pvp occationally  but after beign burned  at recent launched games.. not going to try  a brand new game at launch... I want something that has worked its bugs out.. (who knows might try it in a few months down the road but not now...)

secondly i really wanted a MASSIVE game... this just doesnt seem massive enuff..  I do hope everyone has a good time though and wish WAR  a fair start...   The next game I truely wish to wait for is Kotor being published by Bioware...  anyway   have a good one all

The funniest thing about the charging for expansion packs is that part of the excuse for the monthly charge is updates.

For me its cold hard cash, I won't pay £30 pounds for a game, I always wait until the price drops

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.

What this guy said.. minus the eve stuff, that game is boring. I dont buy unfinished games, unfinished games wind up being trash... case in point... age of conan.

The only creative devolopers left seem to be the korean ones, and everyone bashes them instinctively, but at least the korean devolopers come out with unique storylines and we dont have too spend  6 years debating the next star wars rehash....

   Because I can't weild a light saber.

i wont be playing because the community is as rabid as AOCs. And Spamming the pub about Warhammer threads makes me want to play it even less. And i never cared about the WAR universe, also the combat is stale and Worse the WoWs

I think it will be a great game, better than DAoC.  But.. I'm tired of fantasy genre mmo's.  Waiting for a good sci-fi mmo.

Enjoying Eve Online and looking forward to it's ambulation expansion. And Star Trek Online after that. I'm not really interested in fantasy MMOs anymore.

Leaving any flames etc out of the picture..

The main reason is:

The first MMO I played was Ultima Online.. the idea of the early game and what the early game was... is still the best memory for *me* ever in an MMO.

SWG was very close for *me* at one time anyway.

Levels, classes etc... just don't do it for me.

I'm obviously not the demographic that mmo developers are looking for.. simple as that.

Hope that those who play enjoy the game.

I won't be playing it until it's been released a few months, because by then the circus of hype that new MMOs generate will have died down, and other players will have seen what the game is REALLY like to play.

There's been too many games of late that - as they always do - seem like the Second Coming of online gaming, only to be revealed as the usual bug-ridden, rush-released grinfests that are trying to scrape by on eye-candy.  Hellgate: London and Age of Conan, for example, step forward and take the bow of shame, please.

No I'll wait for the free trial

I think Its clear that this game was made for a 10 year old.

Not too clear to me.  I've already pre ordered.  And I'm pretty darned excited! 

I can't wait to play the game.  It seems like a pretty good time it going to be had by a lot of people.

It seems like they dipped into the standard MMORPG "parts bin" a little too often for game features and ideas.  It leaves me asking "haven't i played this game before and didn't I just quit a game that was like this?"

When you consider the talent behind this game it seems off.

Quoting this part because this is a huge chunk of what I'm looking for in the next MMO I'd want to play.  If it would ever come out that is.

I'd only add I'm looking for an exploration game.  I'm less pvp oriented oriented and would like the skill and exploration parts instead.   Take awhile to get from point A to B and discover a forgotten underground city along the way.  Stuff like that.

Exactly what I'm looking for. Same old same old, (with solid RvR) in a shiny new package. I'm not being sarcastic, I am looking forward to playing WAR.

Waiting for Darkfall seems like this to me. I will make you a meal from a new recipe. When you eat it, you will see angels, and hear trumpets blow, you can eat as much as you want and never get fat, if you're bald you will grow hair, if you're fat it will make you skinny, if you're a woman it will enlarge your breasts, if you're a guy, it will make your penis hard, AND it will make you young forever.

I havent' finished the recipe yet, but I'm very close. Now, I suggest you starve yourself to death until I"m finished making it.

Or, you could have a nice juicy steak, or some pie while you're waiting. But probably you should starve yourself until I'm finished.

I won't be playing WAR because it is another god dammed Big Mac in an industry full of Big Macs.  I rather not eat Big Macs and save my money while I wait for SWG Pre-CU, STO possibly (its FAQ and recent video looks interesting), on the off chance Darkfall, or some other MMORPG that is finally at least a quality hamburger.

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.

I said the same thing about a year ago. People will get bored fast with the LINEAR play style of WAR and the RVR tiers. Not much here then this aspect of the game. It is weak on PVE which is what WAR is about anyway with the RVR aspect and not being much a PVE game.

I just don't see this one holding much attention to players in the long run.

Because no matter how good or bad the scenarios, public quests, and RvR are I just can't bring myself to shell out $50 to go through another large stupid series of linear quests to get to an endgame in a universe that while I enjoy isn't my favorite.

Which is the same reason why I stoped playing WoW, LorR, and AoC , its all the same shit, and why I won't even bother with most other MMOs.  I just don't wanna spend $15 a month to go on a linear path of scripted pez despenser quests and the only thing that could  maybe make be able to stomach this is beeing in a universe that I absolutely love like Star Wars or Stargate.

You sir sum it up nicely everything in this industry is the same old hamburger including WAR.  And I for one would like to be served a meal with a hamburger, a taco, and a hotdog.

I am looking for a UO-esque experiance, but it has to be the right setting. I thought that the Star Wars Galaxies, did a decent job of being like UO, but I dislike the Star Wars Setting. Star Trek on the other hand I could go for! Golbins and orcs are really not my cup of tea either.

That is a fair question,that most developers should look at.I am never too busy to move to or play another game.I do not get tied up in my character nor do i feel the need to hang onto a game just because i accumulated 70 levels and tons of gear.

I look at just about every game that comes out and look for many factors.When i first started looking at warhammer,i did so by watching the videos of course.They really turned me off because the people in the vids were acting bigtime immature,so it left a bad impression.I saw a lot of the public react to the videos in a positive manner,therefore it left me feeling this game was going to have an immature base as WOW did.

The other part that turned me off was there crafting.I have to have a totally complete game to qualify it as being an MMORPG.These guys started talking like they were making crafting streamlined,when in reality i took there expressions as one meaning they were making crafting very simple/boring and not much of a data base to craft from.

This also lent it self to being a totally PVP game only,all other aspects of MMORPG's were left out.There is a lot of people out there who couldn't give a squat about PVP in a MMORPG.I use games like unreal tournament to feed my PVP need.

So over all the game offered pretty much nothing to me,so it was one of the few games i didn't bother to try for beta or give it anymore consideration.
