Trolls are, as usual ignored and shunned.

Just one note on the post by DAS1337. The stuttering issue I had was fixable with tweeking the settings on NVidia controlpanel and turning off lightmaps, specular lighting and keeping shadows on balanced. So I'm not that computer illiterate. My pc-level is backed by a few years in school studying pc's and I built my own rig plus I'm the 'go to' guy with my family, my circle of personal friends and their acquainteces when it comes to pc problems. Fiddled with programming on the side aswell, just as a hobby though. Just cause you don't have issues with that, doesn't mean anyone else have it. Go read some feedback forums concerning Warhammer. Lot's of people complaining about the stutter issue. Haven't had any CTD's though, and if that is just pure luck, or some good programming I dunno. Some people have that issue aswell. On the matter of NVidia-based pc's, either you're shit lucky or you're lying. NVidia got problems with this game. They are fixable with a little tweaking here and there, but that should be totally unnesseccary.

No offense to the OP, but I am glad some people are leaving, no I am not trying to twist this, but there is nothing worse than playing with people that whine in the game about how this game doesnt compare to their XYZ game and how it isnt fun for them.

I am currently in T3 with my guild (despite we got several that are in T4 now), we got over 400+ active members playing both Order and Destruction. Alot of us that are hanging in there and figuring out the game alot better now and knowing what to do instead of running scenarios after scenarios and actually figuring out how to play our characters as a group. As stated, this game is a Alt-Aholic Dream!

Currently I am doing the dungeons (Altdorf) and the PQ's like Mount Gundbad (for example, excellent place however for loot drops) and having a blast with my guildmates. I am finally figuring out the ToK and what to quest for to improve my character.

If your going to pull a -- Hi I am JOE SOLO and I am going to Solo this game - you will quit before your even level 20. Its a shame though, alot of people are missing out just by doing scenarios, since they want to get to level 40 asap and try to capp their renown.

Stop and smell the roses and do the PQ's if you can (I know it tough with ppl in scenarios, but you really dont have to have to group if your just attempting to gain influence and move onto the next chapter). Yeah I know your pulling a JOE SOLO by doing this, its a damn shame and mythic should look more into improving the PQ participation, but get your influence done and get out and try the next chapter.

Unlock some of your ToKs, join a Guild that is active (preferrably a guild thats uses voice chat) in the game that schedule RvR Battlekeeps runs. If you do scenarios everytime you log on, well it was nice knowing you in WAR, cause you wont last and will burn out fast.

-this is my opinion and how I play the game-

The question you have to ask is where does the real problem fall?  Is it really hundreds of thousands of are playing the game "wrong" as you hint at or is it the design of the game not encouraging enough diveristy?

Most of the game mechanic designs seem to be casual solo friendly and the game is certainly lacking any real community building tools, especially if after one month people are already saying the are "hanging in there" and suggesting that a big active guild is almost a must.

I know I am taking some liberties with your post, but I think it unfairly is blaming the players of the game for the issues at hand.  The games populations are just to spread out and need to be consolidated.  That alone would most likely make this game much more enjoyable for many people and take care of many of the issues.  My fear though is doing that will just congest T4 to the point of overpopulation in a few months time.

Sorry but I don't have any of the problems you mentioned. I always get enough people for PQs, don't feel compelled to grind scenarios (why would anyone is a complete mystery to me) and I have no idea what you mean by "balance problems". Oh and yes, I play on an underpopulated server.

We might be playing a different game then, or at least we were playing it as a different game more probably.

Get a guild and try to understand what this game is about. You have to go with the flow of the game and your realm instead of trying to fight it. No, you won't get your open RvR right now and no, that PQ that you got your mind set up on might be well deserted. But hey, go to the other PQ that is populated, get into the group and then after its done say "hey lets do this other PQ or maybe steal a keep?". That's how you do things in this game.

 

 

That might apply for a high - high populated server.

Unfortunately only a handful (lets say around 3-4 here in EU atm) are high populated.

More than half the servers here in EU are low - low to low - med population.

Try getting there some world RvR going or PQ's. Or even a scenario to pop within a reasonable time.

And the retarded comments about: "Then you should reroll to high populated server" don't fly anymore with that many servers on low population!

Cheers

As I mentioned in several other threads I am playing on a low populated server.

No, I won't get much spectacular RvR in the mornings and I do have to actually LFG once or twice in /1 when I want to complete PQs but that's about the extent of my problems. If that's catastrophically "broken" for all those players then just go ahead and enjoy your 2hr + LFG ing to do one measly pug instance in WoW.

Meh, I'm shocked how I find this game fantastically easy to group and no time wasted when I play at all... and yet those haters keep saying just the opposite. I simply do not get it. Sorry but I don't. When I play WAR for 2 hours I PLAY it for 2 hours, non-stop and 90% of the time it is in group content within a group. No other MMO I ever played comes even close in that regard.

Just another hater. I like how one of his first gripes was about how the player models made him feel, sexually. If this is your scale for weather or not you like this game, you should be playing a different game.

First, it was their look, not how they made me feel. I'm way into my 30's and know deadsure where my sexual preferences are thank you. Neither did I scale that on if I wanted to play the game or not. You call me a hater. I got news for you, I aint. Check my post history and you'll find I'm pretty relaxed about the games I comment on. Lastly, If I'm a hater, you are a troll. Your comment is akin to those 'dont let the door hit you' type of comments. Just trolling, and totally useless in any thread.

Edit:Haha...I can't believe I got a mod warning from this thread. Bah, some people are just too fragile.

dang, really good analysis, but to best honest there's a few things. First of all, the graphics aren't as good as Age of Conan, and second of all, umm, the real problem with this game is that the community sux, it's boring cause the combat is outdated, and third of all, the main issue is that there's not competitive end game, I dont' care what you say this game still doesn't have fun, comeptitve, really kool end game

You leave? Great. We're better off without people like you who don't understand that this game is just HALF finished. I mean, it's full of glitches, 4 capital cities aren't finished yet, and they are creating the next 4 classes.

Mythic just didnt want us to wait any longer, cuz they already changed the release date alot of times, and they decided to create the game while we are playing.

And now already I like it even more then Guild Wars and WoW. Imagine how the game will be when it's finished.

Also, this game will offer in the future much more then other mmo's, warhammer has at least 16 races we could use as playable races, while WoW is already on it's limit with 10. Just Naga would be a possible next playable race.

You could say you'll join when the game is finished. But those who start now will be the strongest when that time comes.

My family loves WAR, great game!

If I had a couple of kids say around 10-14 then I would subscribe to WAR.  The death penalty is minimal and combat is basic enough as its click and swing.  Seriously not making fun of your thread but hand on heart I would sub because the game is family friendly.  However for me its way to simple and I need a very strong community to keep me in and the server I was on had less people playing than Vanguard at its low point.  I am talking about seeing 2-3 people in 1 hour.  Unless of course I jumped into another scenario...

I quit too.

It was fun for a while, but not worth my $15 a month.

There's not a whole lot to do. I found myself just logging on to play scenarios.

I'm waiting on Champions Online, DC Universe, Star Trek Online, and SW: TOR.

Maybe I am just sick of the Fantasy setting?

I wrote a long and thoughtful reply to this, read through it and realized -What the hell!, let the post speak for itself.

It definitely does, but please remember that the poster also speaks for himself, not for everyone. ;-)

Ofcourse
