I patched up today and gave it a free trial... One of the great things was creating great looking charactars in Vanguard . With expression on their faces... Nown there are just 5 sliders that create a characters face....am i overlooking something, why did they dumb this down?

Any news on the MMO title that 38 studios (formerly known as green monster games) is developing...
Its a company owned/ started by Curt Schilling and they have RA Salvatore (Story) and Todd McFarlane (art) involved in their dev team.... I just found out the working title of the project, its "Copernicus" from this video. crackle.com/c/Jace_Hall/Jace_Hall_Ep_6_Curt_Schilling_and_Wiimbledon_/2333072 They'll use the Unreal 3 engine, with tools like "Natural Motions Morhene annimation tool" and "Bigworld" server software.
Now thats prolly all info available, but i was wondering if someone knew something more. Just those names should be enough to draw huge attention. There is a few secconds of game art in the video above. (its near the end iof the short interview with Curt.
Seems like a this will be one of the main titles to follow in development for the next years to come...
[[I am secretly hoping they'll build the game around the forgotten realms, with RA Salvatore's knowledge this could be possible, but for now i beleive they are creating a new twisted fantasy world]]

Untill a week ago this was my biggest problem with the european rel;ease... GOA..
But, after reading up a lot on the company, its obvious that you can't compare the current GOA with the GOA from 6 years ago..
They have failed with DAoC, and they realise, they have learned from their mistakes and have changed their whole company structure... So when they use their previous experience and improve their service to a level equall or even better then people are used to from other MMO's i guess i think GOA will be a fine choice. The MMO service department has changed over the last 6 years and so has GOA.

First choose if you want to play....
Healer Tank Mellee DPS CAster
Then choose your race based on your roleplay preferences, and you'll know your class.
Its so easy.... i allways play smaller races, that leaves me with dwarves and goblins, only option for me is a healer class. So i will probably end up with a disciple of Khain. Thats logic. |

I played almost all big MMO's since EQ, and i played DAoC both on US and european servers... Mythics US service was okay.....
But GOA ruined much of the european version for me despite their promisses of special content. Game updates lagged months behind the US game updates, servers where buggy and service was non existent if you didn't speak any french.
And now they will let GOA handle the release of Warhammer online in europe... seriously, if its still the same comapny as 5 years ago, they can't handle it.
Am i the only one that has such negative feelings about GOA? |

While Warhammer is certainly not a game focussing on this aspect of MMO gaming...i bet i will still spend atleast 30% of my game time soloing and exploring..
What game mechanics will Warhammer use to make this "most boring" part of the MMO game interesting ? |

But WoW did improve some things from the wheel (while sadly also removing some good things from it)
Warhammer is just the next improvement from the wheel. WHile bringing back the stuff that Blizzard foolishly removed and adding new stuff thats supposed to make the game even more immersing then WoW.
((If you want a game thats taking a whole new direction you need to check Spellborn that crosses between an MMO and a FPS game))

Things like this are needed to create the next generation MMO...
Not all over the place, but just in a few static spots.
And Warhammer surely has the ingame setting and attitude to pull off something like this. |

The world is shaping up day by day now, but i am still missing plant growth on the ground, I like to wade my character through knee high grasses and corn, stuff like that. But most of the ground looks like the needly cut stuff we know from our local city park.
Great visualls is not about a pixel count for me.... But its all about Annimations, art style and atmosphere... By adding a lot more dense growth in the wild areas they could improve the atmosphere a lot. |

I think that Mythic still holds most of the horses needed to pull of this game. I am more worried about their european partner then about EA. I played both US as European servers for DAoC, and service in europe was the worst seen on any MMO i ever played. EA must realise by now how fragile and demanding an MMO community can be.

I have been in AoC beta, and the game misses something, its hard to describe, but the whole world feels like loose sands... It could not give me a reason to play after level 50
Beleive me that EA will hype this game like nothing before...be also sure to check the new video's on IGN they show how much the graphics (and mob AI) have improved these last few months. |

Just read this article and watch the 5 new video's that come with it in HD.(640x480) and you know why Warhammer will rock. http://pc.ign.com/articles/883/883295p1.html
Now we can all rest reasured, warhammers video quallity will be on the same level as the gameplay. This game will be the winner of 2008.
None can complain anymore about the graphics quallity. It only keeps me wondering at what cost this will come, what system will be needed to play the game with 100 characters in PvP battle. |

I think closed beta is just a name....
The early phase of the beta most other companies would have named Friends and fammily Alpha... |
