Ok listen to me Anofalye, if you would like to go spend hours on end standing in front of 5 black orcs all day while you are a warrior priest or something and farm kill them instead of raiding capitol cities, then go ahead and waste your life on something that is completely ridiculous. In case you didn't realize this yet, this is game, and the reason you play a game is to have fun and what fun comes out of farm killing players without them fighting back? Wow, just wow. You are so strange. Stop posting about topics that are completely clueless and non-sensical. Do you have nothing better to do?

Honestly this is what it has in common.... quests (what game doesnt have quests), lvls (almost every game has lvls in some way), name starts with the letter "W", um...graphics are somewhat similiar although WAR's are less cartoony, oh and it has PvP, lots and lots of PvP, and it also has monsters to kill. So yes i guess u can say WAR is a WoW clone... definitely. Like who wouldn't think that? Man you gotta be crazy not to.

Sorry man, theres not much of a difference. Wow, this actually more than confirms my thoughts. Warhammer online definitly has cartoony graphics, in addition to WoW ish gameplay.

Yes, Warcraft is based on Warhmmer....

Not sure how you get that perspective but to me they look way different. But whatever, not like it matters, I'm still gonna play, cartoony or not.

Ok first off, WAR's graphics are nowhere near as cartoony as WoW. I posted this before and i'll post it again if you havent't seen it as proof.

Do you see the difference? Yes? Good. And second, there is nothing wrong with cartoony graphics. The only thing it might do is draw in a younger crowd MAYBE in the end. Otherwise, if the game is fun and enjoyable and plays great, why the hell not play it? Everyone's getting worked up over the fact that WAR has cartoony graphics when the fact is, they really aren't. Maybe just a tiny little bit in some way. But you know it IS possible to make an orc look realistic in and I think they've done a good job with that. So enough with this cartoony crap cuz it's going nowhere and alot of people are fed up with it.

It's WoW with more emphasis on PVP. Seriously.. WoW came from a strategy game too. The only thing the same really is the lore.. even then that's like non-existant.

As far as Warhammer Online, the graphics blow. I quit cartoon land years ago. New day of age. Get rid of those god awful graphics. Nuff said. Lame game.

That should clear things up a bit. Enjoy!

Nothing really new. Just auto-attack hotkey mashing combat and those two geeks in their shades lmao. They really need to stop wearing those.

 

I was hoping to actually see some details in E3 but it seams that WAR didn't even have a presence. :/

Warhammer is totally differrent than WoW.  WoW you can go anywhere on the map and explore, grind, farm, etc.  Warhammer you are put on a set path and have to follow it.  That's my problem with it.  I like to explore every corner, every nook and cranny without being forced down the "yellow brick road".

 

Set path? What are you talking about?

I checked on the EBgames website and it says the game releases Feb. 1 2008. Not sure if that's correct though. You can also pre-order it there.

This game is so gonna wipe the floor with all other mmorpgs. I'm going chaos! CHAOS WARRIOR!

This game looks so awesome, I'm most looking forward to the awesome pvp and capturing land, since pvp in WoW was absolutely useless.

this game will be my favorite mmorpg...EVER!

LOL! Yesterday you said Aion would be the best... What's up with that? Just goes to show you never to judge a game before reading about it. Theres probably alot more like you.

Cool video. Why does he do a whole 'swinging my staff over my head and turning around' every time he uses his simple spell. The first time it's like 'that was kinda cool' but after that it gets old and kinda stupid. The second guy was a bit better. Animation wasn't needlessly long and flashy. Still was 'click 1, wait for animation to fire, click 2, repeat.' Wish also the combat wasn't so bleeding repetative 'wack a mole' like every other MMOG.

 

UI is nice though, I like the bestiary. You don't see many MMOGs with those anymore. Video was pretty solid quality too. Nice find. :)

Well, you have to remember that these characters are only about lvl 1-3. So they dont really have much to do. Video was pretty cool though. Bout time we get to see the starting characters with no gear at all. Fun to watch.

Much, much better. Sure was gruesome lol. Would of been cool if they showed a bigger battle or more fighting. Pretty cool though.

Well that does kinda suck. Hope they respond with a solution.

lol to be honest that's a bit scary but hey, I'm freakishly excited too so no big deal. Everyone's different. Hope you can make it through the next 7 months wothout going insane. 

Let's just say that WoW will be around for a long long time before it is driven out of business by another MMO. I mean, with over 8 million subscribers, you would have to make one hell of a game to steal most of the customers and eventually wipe out the WoW community. The only possible way of threatening WoW's numbers is to make a game that has the same feel as WoW, but with new and better improvements to the gameplay, and alot more emphasis on PvP. Oh wait... Warhammer! Woot! Thank God for you.

So you see, this is why many people will leave WoW for games like Warhammer, and of course AoC or Aion etc. More PvP + innovative ideas + WoW feel = WoW killer. I wonder who will take the icing on the cake.

Actually AOC and WAR are TIED with 7.3.

 

LOL

 

its funny how many people miss that, and that AoC is only listed on top due to alphabetical order

It's not alphabetical...

No clue. But when sacking a city you can expect hundreds vs. hundreds

I think instanced PvP sucks cuz you dont learn as much about your enemy OR your comrades.  In DAOC, if I saw spam from someone I fought often it was exciting to know that they were out there fighting too.

Instanced junk like GW or WOW I could never get into because you had no friends really or knew your enemies, you just ran out there fought , died , and then ran out there again over and over.  LAME!

So whats WAR gunna do for us true PvPers who have the patience and skillz to go out and do real battle?

well it cant be zero cuz i already left 

But anyways i chose 200k - 600k cuz i know for a fact that many many ppl want more PvP implemented into WoW. And we all know that ain't gonna happen so after 3 moths i'd say roughly 300k people. Although in a way i hope I'm wrong cuz the majority of WoW players are very immature and would probably end of being a pain in the arse anyways.
