Holy World of Warcrap footage?? Dumb question but does anyone else see the stupid resemblance to this and WOW? Yeah so people say Blizzard stole Warhammer artwork and blahh blah blah!! But has anyone ever thought that Blizzard was the first to put the art onto the screen in a MMORPG called WOW?? Yes Blizzard had the MMORPG artwork and models before Warhammer the MMORPG came to us, I like to see people back this question up. Ok go fanboys take a stab at it. Blizzard created these cartoonish graphics first and it seems everything I see here from Warhammer is an exact clone to Blizzards WOW. WOW sucked hardcore after the first year, why would you play a game that reminds you of World of Warcrap?

Bezado, you are completely wrong. The styling for this game is based off of the figurines, which have been around since the early 80s. It is NOT copying wow. This game looks completely gorgeous. I cant wait to play.

That was pathetic. And people say this is 'beautiful'? Hah! It looks absolutely horrible. Nothing new here either.
And Bezado, yes Blizzard was the first to put this sort of graphics into an MMO.

This is a PRE-ALPHA video. The textures are still low-res, the animations are not fleshed out, the lighting system is not in place. When WAR releases and you see the finished product, then you won't be saying it looks horrible.

The graphic comments are coming from AoC and other fan boys of other games. There are few games out there that can show graphics as good as that for PREALPHA. Some of the newer beta screens are really starting to look great and they do not even have the lighting system in yet. It has already been proven that WAR has vastly improved graphics then most MMOs out to date .

This site attracts a good amount of dumb assess. This is PRE ALPHA its amazingly old and still looks damn good for a pre alpha vid. I'm tired of fanboys just saying "Oh, fuck logic, AoC is the best because it had -insert sad amount of knowledge- and the others suck because their not AoC".

Well little man, Please go to youtube.com (NAY SAYERS TRY THIS) look up "w.o.w. Alpha" . Alpha to release its like comparing half life 1 to half life 2. like comparing KING KONG 1933 to KING KONG 2005.

To junoreactor: Im not little man:) and its my point of view. i dont like the graphics cos i know they can be better in nowadays! But gameplay can be fun, so i'll give it a try anyway!

Some of you people saying that they ripped off of wow... lol that's just hilarious. The warhammer lore and artwork from the table top game have been around well before even Warcraft 1 came out. Not only that, Blizzard is now stealing a mass amount of ideas from WAR and DAoC to put into their next expansion.

Omst tiem past most player begone to be angry, and disapointed, some about graphique other about comparaison with WoW, on design, gameplay, artwork... Still I thinkk like them a bit dont make yourself illusion, the game was classed " most anticipated game only, its not like they got best presentation or best technologie used or innovation title ect... "
Seriously like I say more time past and more that game lost is title of anticipate game.

For all of you people, especially Bezado, who obviously don't understand the term "Pre-Alpha", please stay away and don't play WAR. Those of us with a clue would prefer that we don't have to deal with you.

LOL....early pre triple alpha footage. What a joke....how about something recent? How about something that doesn't resemble WOW. Oh, that must be as close as they can get because the current state of the game is an even closer copy of WOW. This game is setting new standards for fanboi overhype. WOW2!!!

For pre-alpha it looks ok. I'm not a great PvP fan, but I'll check this game out anyway.
Wow Stole this and that from lots of other games so it must be a crappy game. And by judging a game from pictures on the net I can see that Wow is the same game as EQ so I won't play it.

still not excited.I don't see something brand new of what I seen so far of the game. btw this pre alpha video is weary similar to the other MMO"WoW"Everybody knows that wow is the real clone from Warhammer but still wow was 1st to make a mmo look like that, realy disapointed that they did not come up with anything new/else.the pvp and rvr reminds me also a little about DAoC.I'm looking forward to the games that bring me something new...until now I would say that "WAR is old even before it launches"

Even though he is misguided about where Blizzard got their the ideas for the artwork they have in place, I do agree with him on one point: Why the hell would anyone want to play a game that reminds them of WoW? This IP came first, the artwork first, but it can't get away from the comparison. If you hate WoW, won't this remind you of it? Hopefully gameplay answers that.

For all who says this game are exactly like wow,
How can you tell what the game are like by just lookin at a few bad made gamevideos?
Warhammer got plenty of time until release and it already looks more fun than world of warcraft!!
There are MUCH more to do with the game and there are plenty of time left. and when the closed beta starts they will fix the problems with the game and it will be PERFECT, I do realy hope we don't have to play with the wow nerds with a cocky mouth about warhammer online right now
