Originally posted by Vertex1980 I'm a fan of PvP and won't be playing this game. Just doesn't look like something I would enjoy. Well what about it won't you enjoy? I suppose there are those PvPers who prefer worlds where you can't trust anyone like EVE whilst there are RvRers like me who like the idea of each side of the community working together to beat the crap out of the other.

I enjoy PvP to the fullest. Why else would I play Guild Wars and Shadowbane? Just something about the game itself that doesn't apeal to me. Maybe because I know it's going to be riddled with children??

Maybe because I know it's going to be riddled with children?? Oh I dunno...I don't think WoW will be losing that subscriber base for a while, despite what anyone says. And if they do come off it, they'll be much more likely to flock to Age of Conan, because they're more 'mature' and will give into their adolescent desire for blood and bewbs.

I play EVE as well and the folks at mythic would do well to give it a try also. The core of all PVP action in EVE IS RvR warfare, or Factional warfare as the game nomenclature goes. And the best thing is it doesnt happen cause of some ruleset thats been synthetically grafted on over the game rules but rather cause its what people have to do to survive and actually control zones or protect their interests in the area they live in. Personally i hate the fact that because someone at some point in game design history decided to come up with "concensual" pvp we now have to play lame games who are crippled by extra rulesets dedicated to create "safe" but unnatural enclosures.

What people forget is that this Warhammer Online has nothing to do with the one that was started some time ago, and then given up. This Warhammer Online is based more on the battle game with figures rather than Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, which was what the old WO was based on. So sure maybe they'll stay true to the game, but it will be nothing like what many people think.

LOL kekek I think you're confused. Mythic doesn't surprise people. It's going to be what we all expect, a DaoC clone with races that dont look like crap.

I can see why people look at this and think WoW clone... it's another fantasy MMO with a similar graphical style. As has been pointed out, WoW borrowed it's style from Warhammer in the first place but thats kinda beside the point... the reason it'll be a better game (or more to my taste at any rate) is PvP. WoW pvp sucks. The only people I know still playing WoW are the PvEers and people for whom it was their first MMO. All the hardcore PvPers from my guild, and others I'm friendly with have moved back to games like DAoC and EVE (sorry Gorukha!) which have PvP that actually changes the game rather than just earning your individual character honour (ego) points. I can fight in a WoW pvp instance for 100 years and win every fight but never make a jot of difference on the actual world. My achievements will never free lands from the grip of an enemy, will never allow my side access to new ares of content, will never mean my enemy pulls out of a region or suffers material losses. It's meaningless except for bragging rights.
User Deleted	9/05/06 3:50:16 AM#36 Report this post Explain why you are reporting this post: (750 characters max.) For those of you who think that this game copies WoW, it doesn't. The RvR mentioned in this article is similar to mythics other game DAOC. WoW's pvp does not live up, and will never live up to Daocs rvr when it was in its prime. Though I will say, it looks like they took Daocs rvr concept and just copied to Warhammer with a little different objectives.

First of all I love the Warhammer universe even though I have never played the miniature game. And that Mythic Entertainment makes it makes it even better! And the footage that's leaked out fo far looks great! WAR will either the next generation of MMOG's or the greatest disappointment in Mythics history.. crossing fingers for the first alternative "What's a cocksmoker?"

This game will definently kick ass, and like everyone says it looks like WoW..or rather WoW looks like the tabletop game this game is based on. However the lore and such is totally diffrent and much more thourough since this game has been around for alot of years and worked on before it was even made into a mmorpg

Originally posted by ccaine This game will definently kick ass, and like everyone says it looks like WoW..or rather WoW looks like the tabletop game this game is based on. Well, I personally don't care which was first. The makers of this game and WOW are pretty much the only two game developers who seem to know what a dwarf should look like and that alone puts them above anything like EQ2 or DDO. Now if they can match the Gameplay and fun factor of WOW they will have a hit on their hands.

They made one of the better pvp systems in any MMO to date( wow shouldve taken a page out of their book). I love warhammer series as well but PLEASE do not make the graphics look like WoW. I really really do not want to see this becoming a trend in graphics.
