I admite, as a gay man, feeling pleasure in seeing this kind of hypocrite who is against same sex couples having the same rights as the others and defend the holiness of the traditional family, but then falling short than their own self made standards. It's a guilty pleasure, like eating too much chocolate.... and he had it coming...

Since i canceled my account like 2 weeks ago, I was like "wow let's check the patch" and then I noticed that they nerfed the 3 classes I have lvl40.... the already completly sucky Blackguard, nerfed.... the somewhat useless Zealot (the other healers can do the same stuff, better) nerfed, and the Sorc underdog, nerfed.... Well no point in even trying it...

For me it was Dark and Light, lies + horrible game + bugs + horrible graphics + an endless mob of mindless fanboys = the worst experience ever

Will a korean grinder revamp of L2 affect Champion? huh no...

Get the Assassin Triology from Robin Hobbs, they are a great read!

Eragorn takes just too much ideas from the "Dragon Riders of Pern" Chronicles, which are so much better, Harry Potter isn't half bad, and the third I didnt read so wouldnt know.

If you get a blue screen with ANY computer you bougnt within 30 minutes of using it, it means it's something external, like a power plug with a short circuit, or the space where you put the computer is too hot causing overheating, or even a USB device you use on all the computers within this lapse of time. Try to think outside the box.

I have been playing Warhammer nearly 30 days up to now and I found out the players are so much different from other games I have played before. I'd rather think it was the game shaped out the players than the player adapt to the game. I only playing on Orders because the Chaos looks terrible, at least for myself. Just like WOW, I don't want to play undead rogue because they can't even run properly, and it affects my RL somehow. Therefore, I would not want to try again. There is nothing to talk about because it is just like food, you have your favorite and I have mine.

Gosh, where to start... well okay you choose order, no need to have a phylosofical discussion about how the walking affect your real life...

Warhammer is not actually one on one PVP game because it is designed for group PVP (GPVP), because the class balance is not based on each, therefore, you may seen high level is not necessary able to kill a low level, because no matter what class you chosen, all skills are nearly the same. The game is heavily based on Armors and Weapons which you will get better armors/weapons through GPVP or Capturing Battle Objectives in a conflict zone to earn yourself with the renown point to increase your stats so this is very important enhancements. And level will enhanced your skills either mostly are damaging or healing. A high level without renown point means your performance are much lower because your stats are lower too.

I wouldnt say realm rank is that important, but high lvl is more important, like a lvl 31 killing a lvl 21 in a scenario even when the lvl 21 is boosted to 28, will happen 100% of the time. But a lvl 21 with 21rr has no chance against his mirror lvl 31 with rr5 or 6... And no, you dont get loot from battle objectives, from keeps maybe, but not from BO.

I don't like to play any PVE contents because the core of the game is GPVP or CBO (capturing battle objectives in conflict zone), I think PVE contents only help yourself to make gold or unlock certain quest. I can't see it will help you performing better since I can't see the difference between killing 1,000 certain mob and if you killed 10,000 mobs. I can't see the difference if you completed or not complete the Public Quest. In LOTRO, you need to kill hundreds of certain mob to gain enhancements and title but not in Warhammer, you may gain a title just like a trophy to decorate your armors without any real value. So the grind in Warhammer is mainly for gold or a slim chance to get rare armors/weapons. However, if the quest have chance to drop rare armors, you can be sure that it is similar to a Raid size in LOTRO, and people still can roll the thing they already have and it is quite rare to gain something you really needed. The PVE contents are very poor and it is not able to compete with other PVE mmo.

In fact questing is one of the fastest way to lvl in the game (if u dont mind not getting any realm rank). There is no grind for gold as gold is meaningless in WAR, gear yes, gold no. And to do the PVE set parts quests u just need 2 or 3 players... is that the raid size of LOTRO? or maybe you are talking about the public quests, well the bags can be given to somebody else with master loot, and in 1.3 anybody will be able to pass the bag. No comment on the last sentence...

My experiences on EU Core server, especially on Order side is most people like to do PVP or GPVP. And they are enjoy soloing. Soloing in a group. Because the game provides 9 characters, therefore it is so easy to forming your own guild. And the game keeps educating players in loading screen that if you need a party just join a open warband, and you can leave or join without any reason. This is the playing style Mythic expect everyone to have. So we all playing with our own style. Not all healers want to heal you because they prefer to play for themselves than make you play better. The most terrible thing is playing the wizard, when you deal lets said 300 damages, you have very high chance to hurt yourself with 384 damages up to 540 damages, so the wizard always killed himself. Without healing, you won't be able to use your skills 5 times.

Soloing in a group? the game provides 9 character so it's easy to form your own guild.... those 2 sentences dont even make sense... You know, if you join a guild with players, well you wont have to join PUGs... I can guarantee that all healers heal, since there is a huge RP reward from healing, maybe they dont heal you, because you are out of range or suicidal...

Wow just wow, you are the first person to even complain about playing the Bright Wizard... God forbids...

I have played healer in most mmorpgs, and I also playing healer in Warhammer, all my skills are for healings, and I only heal but then when I play other class, I barely to see other healer so generously to heal people. I found out many healers are trying to deal damaging than healing or they just don't want to heal. When there was someone chased by a destruction, I usually will joined but then the Order just run away. And many times, when I engaged with a destruction, the Order just run by without help. And one time, I was grinding gold in a public quest, I was high level, there were some Order just asked me to leave because I also have the chance to roll. This also explains why Destruction is dominant on our server just because the player on Order are solo player in a group. And now, when I playing healer, I do my best not heal anyone or ressurect any dead. There were many times, a healer stood on my corpse without ressurection. Sorry for my honest, but I swear to God, there are so many healers they don't heal. Furthermore, the healer in Warhammer is extremely boring class and they died fast in GPVP.

Well, if you were solo grouping to grind for gold, It's no wonder that healers who were dpsing the mobs would ask you to leave (sarcasm). So you love healers in other games but hate healers in WAR, where they are exactly the same as in all other generic mmo, figures. 

What about defending a keep? most people died before the real defensive comes, because they so enjoyed for dog fight, again solo in a group. Therefore, when the Destruction breaks in, there wasn't enough live people left and many people included melee all run to the roof instead of blocking on stairs. If I remembered right, I had only one time attacking a defended keep, the other times, Orders are not able to attack a well defended keep, but Orders are only capable to attack empty Keep.
So I'd say Warhammer is a big PUG game just like you go to internet cafe to play a F2P game.

I have seen reviews, and negative reviews, but non-sense reviews, that's my first time seeing.

You know what the saddest thing about Warhammer Online is?

The original game that got shut down because Games Workshop thought it wasn't "economically viable" was going to be akin to a sandbox game, as it was based off the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplaying game. Thing SWGs system in a fantasy setting and you're pretty damn close.

So, yeah...

It's pretty much GW's fault that we don't have a very nice sandbox game sitting on the market right now.

( Well, other than Wish, which also got shut down due to the fact it cost too much. I'm seeing a pattern, here. )

Video of original Warhammer Online: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkQvPQJ1_Dk

What a bunch of lies you got there, the original Warhammer Online was a PVE only game where you could play Empire only!!!

So please don't make up stuff.

And WoW is a copy of Everquest which was a copy of Ultima which was a copy of Meridian which was a copy of old telnet stuff...

Or do you mean the art design that Blizzard stole from Game Workshop's Warhammer years ago?

Your opinion only means you saw the game and didnt actually played it.

That's just my opinion... 

I had the same problem u did, until i picked my warhammer folder and copied it on the same hard drive than the OS just to try it, and the diference was like night from day, i got a 50% performance improvement.... Try it, u dont even have to uninstall WAR just copy or move the folder to the main disk... That and creating a profile in the nvidia control panel for war and forcing AA made the game run faster (as strange as it seems).

My CPU is a AMD X2 4800, had a Gforce 8800 GT at the time, 4 gigs of Ram and Vista 64, so i doubt it's really that CPU heavy...

Edit. oh and you can also try to turn off the virtual memory completely...

When a game looks like Dark and Light, feels like DnL and smells like DnL, when their publisher, developper and fans feel like Farlan and their paid follower... then it wasnt hard to guess what would be the end result of Darkfall.... Dark and Light 2 the return...

(if you want you can change the Dark and Light game for Mourning... same story... diferent name)

Strange as the same persons that complain about it, are the first to do it on the WAR forum for exemple.... hypocrites ftw

 Well, from persoanl experience I can tell you the server is quite stable.

They don't have the resources to add more servers yet, and even if they did, as he said, it's not that simple nor a fast process. Everyone seems to of been spoiled by the larger corporations, and now they all expect this level of perfection from smallyer companies trying to make a different game. It really disgusts me.

So you are saying that the larger corporation launchs are perfect.... mmmmm if those were perfect i wonder what to expect from the Darkfall launch... since we shouldnt expect perfection from a small company, nice way explaining their logic haha

God, looking at this thread makes me remember that, people never learn.... Dark and Light, Mourning>Age of Mourning, preorder scams to crappy unfinished games that promised everything and showed nothing... and in the end they sucked as much technically as entertainly.... boring bug ridden slug fests...

This feels like Dark and Light all over again, the only thing entertaining about DnL was the forum, i laugh so much on the forums about it that it was ALMOST worth the money... but no quiet... hey.... do they promise cloth maps too?

I just wanted to share my story, yes, i m gay, i live in a relationship for the last 11 years, oh and we are very happy, i live in a country where it's not possible to marry yet, but they are talking a lot about it lately.

My partner (since i cant use husban so i dont insulte the sanctity of marriage) was diagnosed Lateral Amyotrophic sclerosis (no idea if it's spelt this way in english) this year, meaning he will eventually end up in a bed without moving anything but his eyeballs. Since we CANT marry we have been busy running (well he cant run anymore but u understand...) from on place to another preparing for his death, while he is still alive, it's almost as if we were giving up hope while spending fortunes at the lawyer.

The stranger thing is, by law, I will have to hand half the stuff in his name to a family who never cared for him and put him on the street when he said to them he was gay, and even the other half, that will be handle to me via a testament, can be contested...

Who can honestly say this is fair, can the righteous Christian say my family is not worthy of protection, how can they say I dont deserve to marry the person i love, and not having him worry the last years of his life about if i m gonna be okay after he dies, or if I will be able to make his will happens when he will be so sick he wont be able to move.

You guys against marriage dont understand we are humans, we have relashionships, i love my husband, and I will stay by his side whatever happens, it's probably more than most "traditional family" zealots would do. 

yeah in my server the oRVR never stopped from that day on... lol, everyday when i get home, there is some huge fights in oRvR.

Scenarios are popular becaus they reward both sides unlike RVR lakes which only rewards attackers who are successful.    it doesn't take 7 - 8 hours to go after any of the Open World objectives unless there's a steady stream of defenders / attackers and thats incredibly rare.  People play Scenarios because they're techincally still more 'rewarding' on an equal level than Open RVR.  THe game is designed to work around the Open RVR...those of us that ARE players that ARE complaining complain because Scenarios took away from the main reason we got into the game its also destroying any chance of reaching End Game since not enough people ever show up to do anything.

Scenarios were meant to be something to do during non prime time hours and for casuals it was NOT meant to be the heavy focus  of the entire populace.  As it stands now when my subs runs out in december I will not be resubscribing until they fix the issues between Open RVR & Scenarios and if that means making a server thats Scenario less then I'll take it.  I'm essentially staying long enough to see what they do with Patch 1.1.   

 I think Scenarios are fun but I hate that if i want to PVP I have to essentially play the same couple of Scenarios over and over and over again.  I'm not paying 15 dollars a month to play a game style i can play for free with an FPS game.

btw the fact that you say Open RvR raids take 7- 8 hours shows you've never even attempted any of it which is a shame.  I'm a casual player myself with only 2 or 3 hours a night to play and before things went completely crap I was able to take several keeps sometimes even with defenders holding us off and tons of OB's with it taking us a max of 2 to 3 hours sometimes 4 if it was a huge skirmish.

Please reread my post, has i never even talked about oRVR, i was just comparing to other mmo, where you have to do 7-8 hour raids to get gear in PVE... In  WAR i dont have to waste time in PvE and having a chance to win nothing in return...

I have done oRVR raids that took one or two hours, and i never complained about the oRvR, i was just talking about the way people complain too much about Scenarios and that for casual players, it's better to do scenarios than being gimped for not doing 7-8 hours instances.... (please check that i didnt edit the original post and i didnt talk about oRVR)

(hell i know my english sucks, but is it that bad :D )

I was just wondering why there is so much players that dont actually play the game complaining, i m having a great time playing WAR. I m not hardcore, far from it, i work and actually have a life and WAR is just great in the way that i dont have to do a 7-8 hour raid to win nothing to play it.

That's why scenarios are so populares, people in the boards dont think about it because most are way too hardcore, but for us, normal players, it's a lot easier to get a quick pvp fix by joining a scenario, doing one or two, feeling we have achieve something (xp/rp and loot) and just leave after a bit.

I understand WAR has it's problem but for me, it's the only MMO i can actually play... and have fun
