The grind honestly isn't that bad. They have things in the game to make it easier then normal to level 2 classes at the same time.

 

1. It seems quests open up when you go back as another class, which helps.

2. Daily quest items drop regardless if you even have the quest or not, so you can bank them and use them for your second class.

3. There's daily quests right off the bat, it's a bit of a grind but because it's questing, it does sort of alleviate some of the pain with just killing mobs for no reason.

4. It really doesn't take that long to leve classes. I'm asuuming later levels will take longer, but getting to level 15-20 is pretty fast.

5. The death penalty really isn't THAt bad, especially if you get to your tombstone and get some of the pentaly take off.

I'm incredibly impressed with this game, though I'm assuming endgame isn't finished. However this game is still in beta.

Clearly other F2P MMO makers should take note of this game.

Even though it's still massive grinding, doing it with quests alleviates the pain of it by a ton and can actually make the game quite enjoyable.

The dual class system is nice too.

You can't make the Mech insides too complex or it'll get confusing with the overlaying UI.

 

Course they could make the UI into the mech, which would require reloading the UI everytime you log in, so I dunno.

Would be a neat idea, but might be too complex.

 

Also I like where this game is going, sounds tempting. It's been a long time since i played, dunno what it's like anymore, but it sounds like it finally going in A directiong. lol

lets hope EA dont destroy the game like they did with UO.

 

Wait...I thought the lead developer that stepped in for the game ruined it.

 

You know.... The one that's now lead developer for WoW.

WotLK won't come out till November.

Blizzards counter to the release is patch 3.0 on the PTR (or live for that matter), and CE information and preorders.

It won't dethrone WoW, but yes, it would be nice for more solid competition in the marketplace.

AoC is still alive, so is EQII, FFXI, etc, but we need a real big contender for Pay to Play MMOs, and hopefully Warhammer is it.

I don't have much PvP experience because my computer sucks and in the fun areas it slows to a crawl, but I have to say I'm enjoying it.

The fights take longer and feel more epics. I was running around the beginning RvR zone on the east control point looking in a building and I saw an Orc chasing me (I'm a warrior priest)

I run around the corner and wait for him and wham, start attacking him! Then I see he's 3 levels higher then me, so I was about to give up when another warrior priest my level showed up and it was epic. lol

It lasted like 3-4 minutes before the orc ran away.

Obviously it could change completely end game, but this PvP is WAY better then WoW PvP, if that's what your going to base it on.

 

I did one scenario which is very AB like, they are fun, but the world PvP is much better.

I'm waiting till live before I even bother with professions.

I suggest you wait too when more people know how they work if you have questions or the mats pop up in the auction.

Aparently in WoW during beta before it game out, Horde outnumbered Alliance.

Then it went live and it was reversed.

Who knows what'll happen, but at least their putting caps on sides so it doesn't become like 2:1 or worse. Something I wish WoW did.

I think the more important question you should be demanding is a gurantee that the servers will be stable when the game goes live, or whatever is messing up the Euro logins right now.

They don't rule the servers at 3 in the morning. lol All the kids are asleep.

Yeah I saw that map in game and zoomed in on each area.  You will see that each area  is setup virtually identically.  My question is if you can switch areas and at what lvl can you do that or if they are completely separate.

Someone answered that there are flight masters but at what lvl do you get them?

 

As far as I know, as long as you have the money to fly there, you can at any level.

You just need to get to the flight master.

Eventually, all 3 areas will have tier capitals and what not in place.

I paid to be in Beta, so for me it was not some kind of freebie for which I should be grateful.

It was one of the reasons I bought the Collectors edition of the game..and took time off work to play.

I agree with the OP whole-heartedly as I too am past being annoyed now as it's been almost 24 hrs with no email.

Honestly..If I'm not in beta today then that's it for me..I quit

 

No you didn't. You either paid for the game and this is a bonus that couldn't happen. Big deal.

OR you're a moron and Ebayed a beta or something.

Either way, just play the game when it comes out, yesh, relax.

still, I bet the only reason a lot of players even considered the preorder was because they thought they would get an extra week of free gaming.  That is how EAMythic sold so many units of Preorder game.  Would you still buy the Preorder box if you knew that GOA weren't ready to take beta accounts from day one?  Of course you wouldn't you would have to be an idiot.

Usually the pre order items, or...I don't know, they really want the game? lol

At least you'll get the items because that' Mythics side, not the ISP.

We demand answers! We can't play for free! This is a complete outrage!

I'm going to have to go out and BUY the game to play it. WHO'S EVER HEARD OF THAT!?

 

lol funny Europeans.

 

No, we have paid to play beta, as it was specifically stated as part of the 'pre-order package'.

 

NOoooooo... You paid for the GAME, everyone else is a pre order BONUS.

So you don't get it, or you get it late, big deal.

Maybe they'll compensate you for it, who knows, but you paid for the GAME, the GAME, not the beta.

CC? That's the LAST thing I want in an MMO after seeing how much it ruined WoW PvP for me (among other things)

 

I'd rather PvP be about skill and not completely 1 sided fights.

LotRO PvE is so good and well execute because that's the focus.

Have you tried their PvP? It's a joke, but their PvE is really awesome.

I'm saving the quest text for live for Warhammer, but considering the history I'm sure it's going to have a great story, just not as interactive and the focus.

Ah this is so amusing.

Can someone PLEASE tell me where such hard judgment on a game nobody has played all the way through came from?

No ones played tier 3 and up, the graphics aren't fully in, most people probably only played for about 10 hours.

I mean it's a matter of taste, but this isn't even really the "real" game. It's missing a lot.

Why is it only MMOs that get this treatment? Why don't console games get this?

"OMG I still can't swim in GTA, it fails!"

"What? I still can't fly in Gears of War? Fail!"

"I can't believe I can't flip over the chess board on yahoo free chess if I'm losing. I'm never buying this game!"

The basic question was simple:
 

Why does WAR have so little? And all you can come up with is even more "little words" which don't mean a thing.

Words like "sucks" "bad" "CC is "cheap" "stupid" are hardly answers to his question.

 The above words are meaningless answers to his questions.

It's personal opinion. His response was fine.

Such stupid responses means your stupid. Why did you come up with just words like so little.

Why don't you actually talk about what you didn't like in the game instead making generalities.
