- I have to say i am disappointed, this is a rip of the original Knights-Online beta log in screen c'mon Warhammr couldn't make anything better?

- WAR: nice demonstration of the lighting. You might want to look into making the flag darker when the lighting goes out ( i assume its a flickering fire and someone is passing in between it and the orc). The orc goes dark.. but the red on the flag stays fairly bright. To the R-Tards: THIS IS NOT WHAT THE FINISHED LOGIN SCREEN WILL BE. IT IS ONLY A DEMONSTRATION OF AS YET, UNREAVELED LIGHTING EFFECTS. GO TO YOUR WOW FORUMS AND BITCH ABOUT YOUR DKP IF YOU ARE TOO FUCKING STUPID TO READ A 4 LINE VIDEO DESCRIPTION.

- saint4god: Nobody officially cares. Anyways, can't wait to see the lighting engine implemented ingame.. Mythic can do no wrong.

- The graphics like this remind me alot of those old Clay animated movies where they take multiple shots of clay and mold it differently for each shot. it just looks like clay! its wierd!.. i dont like..

- Jesus people it's just a log in screen, it's nothing to get worked up about.

blur.murdoc(posted Sun Apr 22 2007)
- haha I keep seeing idiotic comments about people referring to this video as the screen where you enter the world as your character. Its not a "character screen", it is the "login screen"... where you type in your account and password. It is pretty nice compared to some of the other games out there. But then again who cares.. its just a login screen you see it for 2 seconds each time you log on.

- Now why shuld i like to see an character just standing alround on my login screen? looks like something that will get anoying if you aint gona login right away or the server is full so you cant login right away, A nice wallpaper with some movements would be better. like the wc3 loginscreen
Chief021(posted Tue Apr 17 2007)
- Its different, looks cool
DethlyBladeZ(posted Tue Apr 17 2007)
- That looks absolutely Horrible.. At least let me be able to see my character's name. And same for the Graphics.. Horrible, I've seen better on DDO than this junk. Age of Conan will own this game.
Wr3cked(posted Mon Apr 16 2007)
- It's OK but when it gets darker the shadows appear in the wrong place, unless we are assuming there is lighting infront/to the left of him, but that still wouldn't fully explain why the whole of the front of the orc goes dark, especially as there is nothing around to obstruct the light that is falling on the front of the orc in the first place.
noctonaut(posted Mon Apr 16 2007)
- i find the trailer very funny true to the warhammer lineage
aliman(posted Sat Apr 14 2007)
- I believe the entire game will contain lighting of that quality.
chaos91(posted Fri Apr 13 2007)
- Wow that lighting seems cool, i wonder if its in the game too or just the login screen
lilboi(posted Thu Apr 12 2007)
- wtf the video finish buffering, after 2 seconds it buffer's agian.
w175jab(posted Thu Apr 12 2007)
- wtf mate? Rarrr to you too. Nice lighting... still a bit on the flickery side though for being fire in a cave.
Razor_Rox(posted Thu Apr 12 2007)
- ok, some of you should think about jumping off a cliff. the sound quality in this video may not represent(WILL NOT)what you will hear when this game is FINISHED! this is a short video to show you some of the in-game LIGHTING. read the description UNDER the movie. how your parents live with themselves after spawning some of you terds is beyond me.
SmileyMan(posted Thu Apr 12 2007)
- The WAR developers suck at sound quality.
Sk@ven(posted Wed Apr 11 2007)
- Really looking forward to this game, then i can finally leave the crapy WoW grafic behind
mrots(posted Wed Apr 11 2007)
- Looks cool! WWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Dalmar(posted Tue Apr 10 2007)
- Read the freakin' description of the video before posting dumb remarks. The lighting system looks really great, I can't wait for WAR so I can smash in the faces of those who can't even read a small description.
JoeMation(posted Tue Apr 10 2007)
- Its just some orc doing some grunts, whats so special? Most blizzard games have the works too, its a loading screen
Ryun511(posted Mon Apr 09 2007)
- So... how do you log in?
society(posted Sun Apr 08 2007)
- Thats really nice detail. I love the theme and smooth animation. The lighting screams WAR. Bravo Mythic.
checkthis500(posted Sun Apr 08 2007)
- What people aren't understanding is that this is only to demonstrate their "in-game" lighting system. The video is of an "in-game" orc, with their iin-game lighting system that they haven't shown until now with this. It's not even the login screen that'll be in launch it's a placeholder.
LackeyZero(posted Sun Apr 08 2007)
- I think it's stupid. I don't get it, what's the point of having an orc scream? Understandably it's a war game, but still, it looks ridiculous to me and sounds really annoying...
WowMike2002(posted Sat Apr 07 2007)
- Can we say KnightOnline version 2? ;) hehe, reminds me quite a bit with a big ol orc standing there, screaming every few seconds =)
SWGforreva(posted Sat Apr 07 2007)
- oh look mom its a cool login screen, FTW!
Kazzer(posted Fri Apr 06 2007)
- umm, what were so good about that??
jerkson(posted Fri Apr 06 2007)
- Now that looks sweet, and at the same time looks like you really need to be up to date to run that smoothly :)
