Game: Warhammer 40K: Dark Millennium Online
Well it looks good but for those complaining about it looking like WoW, you can't make the game massive with the top of the line graphics because the masses won't be able to play it. WH40k > WoW. :)
As an imperial guard, every key on your keyboard besides the W key and enter key is disabled on your keyboard. Upon hitting the enter key, your character automatically types For The Emporer!, which then you press enter again, to say it.
honestly, how the f*ck does this look like a WoW clone? Since when did WoW have vehicular combat, third person shooting, and blood? There's no pleasing you guys...
And WoW looks EQish-slash-Lineageish. And all that looks like, uh, computer games?
Actually from that trailer it looks much more like DoW than WoW, seems to lack some shaders however. Hoping it's just a quick alpha and eventually they will add some eyecandy for those with higher power PCs
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD... oops wrong faction. What I want to know is it Just the two classes or are there going to be IG and such, they showed a Dred can we become one?? Besides these burning questions whoots looks wicked cool. Even if its taking from already established IP's
How are they going to make this from a tabletop game to a MMORPG. It will be as messed up as WAR, it's a great IP for mass battles between factions but an RPG? No, it won't happen.
im predicting the factions as Space Marines, Orcs, Chaos Marines and Eldar at start, with Tau and Sisters added later. I also predict they will have two PvE NPC races.. Necron and Tyranids.. to fight when not fighting faction pvp.
i also want to say, i want to be able to pilot a Dreadnaught, even if it means being surgically mutilated to be placed inside the dmn thing.
hmmmm looks alot like Dawn of War 2..... I know that the cgi assets at the beginning of the trailer (the imperium ships going into warp) are the exact same as those from DOW2. If they are using the same engine and or alot of already done art assets it may be out too soon.
Looks like fun to me. Waiting on the Orks. DAKA DAKA DAKA DAKA DAK DAKA! 'Ave sum o' dat u hume skuz!.....cof! cof! ahem!.......I'll just be over here. :)
" As a WoW fanatic, I'm going to go right to 40K as soon as it comes out. It's very friendly to the WoW player," Bilson says.
and this:
""They've got 14 million players! Gimme a million and I'm good! We're real good at a million, right?" We don't need everybody to migrate. We just need some of them -- and I'm full confident we're going to get them," he said."
,.. why are people surprised it LOOKS like WoW? Probably will play just like Warhammer Online, the OTHER WoW clone.
Actually WoW is a rip off of Warhammer. Back in the day Blizzard were working on a Warhammer RTS. When Games Workshop changed their mind they were left with a finsihed game. So they rebranded it Warcraft.
So yeah, Warcraft is going to look like Warhammer.
Sounds like the next piece of garbage spewed out by companies who have PHD's in computer programming but 0 experience in actual gaming. Hire me, you will have a great game.
I really hope its WoW-like or a WoW-clone. I hope THQ makes a game as fun as WoW. But fixes all the shit Blizz broke with WoW. The favortism of certain classes, the PvP. But PvP most of all. I hope THQ embraces open world PvP and all that os not "Arena"..
I hope THQ doesnt go down the path of segregating its subscibers because some chose not to embrace an "Arena" style of gameplay. Meaning they dont force people to play PvP only one way. Or only reward people who play what they consider an "E-Sport". I hate the fact that I had to literally PvP 4 times as much to get gear 2 steps below "Arena" players.
Fuck you Blizzard, for making me a 2nd class subscriber while still requiring me to pay $15 a month. Fuck you and you elitist attitude.
Am I bitter, naaa mostly that was drama. But I did feel like a 2nd class subscriber because I chose not to play "Arena".
Holy shit that was a rant.
But I really am looking forward to 40k DM. And hoping THQ captures some of that WoW magic, and fixes what Blizz refuses to.
As said by many people before me and I'm sure many people after me, WoW is a clone of Warhammer not the other way round. If they look alike it is because warcraft copied warhammer and hence all future games related to warhammer and warcraft would always be destined to look pretty similar.
That said I know this is basically alpha footage but from what I've seen so far I'm impressed. If they learn from the mistakes of warhammer age of reckoning then I can see this game being amazing. Definatly one I am keeping my eye on
Got so many combos of classes / equipment in War 40k that i dunno how they'll manage.
Take just a terminator, between a term with claws (pure DPS) a term with hammer (tank + dps) a term with assault cannon (ranged dps) a term with cyclone missile (aoe awesomeness)... so many possibilities, and i'm not talking about tactical marines, or with chaos marines (or blood) who can be both tactical and melee squads. So many options...
Honestly so many people are jaded now from their experence with Warhammer Online and having PVP shoved down their throats and lackluster unfinished graphic quality , they will have to do a really good job on this or some wont give it more than a glance. The graphic quality of that vid does look better than Warhammer already.
Still I;m looking for something like old EQ , not this.
the cartoon style is fine with me as long as they make a good solid MMoRPG that has a little depth and is fun to play, the setting is one of the best, but then again Mythics Warhammer should have been great, but...this is one to watch for sure.
Theres nothing wrong with Warhammer Online, its just people are so addicted to WoW they never will giv ANY other game a chance (and you will have tons of more or less covered WoW fanboys in any discussion).
I cant wait to see 40K online, hope I can play as an Arbitrator.
i dont see this game makeing it to the end at all. it looks like it will die off or just get canceld. who know i may be wrong. seen way to many games get cut off. well good luck! and it does look wowish
not impressed yet. Hoping I will be. Maybe three or more factions would draw me in...but not Order vs Chaos - "let's be friends for a time (in this game) to kill our mutual enemy (too difficult/too expensive/ too involved to have three seperate factions)." Here's wishing for territorial wars over planets.
This give me nothing new, in fact it only makes me think that THQ and Vigil games dont worry with they quality in trailers and dont even get bothered to rush one only for W40K fans, maybe they will rush the game too? i bet...
It will be the same as the others will start with a big hype then a big disapoint and the low playerbase will defend this game to the end, but will be crap anyway.
Players and fans of W40K need and deserve a quality game...
Sincerily, i had lost hope in M(oney) (M)aking Online games long time ago,
Give us something new and fresh like GW2, and i will think in watching your next trailer.

Second, Warhammer and Warhammer-40K existed well before Warcraft was around, so technically Warcraftcopied Warhammer . . . The gameplay doesn't look anything like WoW (guns, missles, vehicles, deadnots), so how else could it possibly be a "clone," since the art style precides WoW?
it's an MMORPG with probably grapphic capabilities of most machines (which was the doom of many an MMO, or the dying of one.. age of conan just won't die, even though it has bugs in it that have been there since launch [hair changing, Xoti hair loss and others straight from tortage])
meh, to be honest it's not by Mythic so high hopes already, i did enjoy THQ's RTS style 40k. So if they actually go for PvP rather than attempt a mix (war) released with half the stuff (cancelled cities and classes; the classes later came back). Now of course WAR has done away with most of the PvE stuff.
Of course WAR is shit, the engine is awful for mass PvP... little or no updates, pretty sure every MMORPG has had more updated in the first 6 months than WAR has ever had or will ever have by the looks of things. Hell even WoW had major updates put in.. WAR got LotD eventually, and that's small and well shit.. I said it.
I have hopes for THQ but again i'll wait until i see some info... i'd rather they concentrated on a small sector of space with a few factions and expanded. (for example cadia space - orcs, chaos, marines and imperial guard with eldar being added as an update for a major storyline)
Advance from there, this looks.... kinda dodgy by story standards..... hmm.. i'll wait to see... but if it's ONE planet with all sorts of factions vying it out. I'll be slightly disapointed. 40K has such rich planets.. more so than star trek (and that crappy MMO)
Oh poor Games Workshop... how are they even going to compete once Guild Wars 2 and World of Starwars... I mean SWTOR are released. This doesn't seem to have even the slightest hint of innovation in it but who knows anything can happen.
It's scary to a degree... Space marines and imperial guard often clashed because of their zealous views/political mumbo jumbo... So if they're continuously locked in an alliance then the storyline will seem pretty simplified. It better not end up "wowish" and have humans(space marine/imperial guard/battle sisters) vs evil.. humans/aliens..(chaos marines/eldar/dark eldar) The story would be horrendous then :(.
I'm still worried out one of their PR people saying it was going to be just like WoW and everyone who liked WoW will like this. Not an exact quote, but pretty much what he said...the trailer looks nice though.
Seriously people who yell wow clone need to grow up now. No MMO is a clone of wow. Every MMO is it's own game. There is no reason to hate a game because there are things in game from wow. Every MMO has things that came from wow.
It is like going to Burger king and saying .. sorry not going to buy your product of a hamburger , fries and soft drink because it is a mcdonalds clone. Since mcdonalds is leading seller in fast food and also supply a burger,fries and soft drink. Seriously who cares I will still buy Burger king product because its food and it makes me full. Though if it is does not taste good dont buy there product. At buger king or any other fast food restraunt you do not see people going up to the clerk and saying mcdonalds clone. Eventhough every fast food restraunt is the same.
So there is no point in calling warhammer 40k a wow clone or any other mmo hince they all have same gameplay but all have diffrent IP. If you do call it a wow clone. I want you to go to a fast food restraunt and go up to counter and say I dont want buy your product because your a mcdonalds clone.

classic idiots with wow all time. This game have history so old that you didnt even borne when and wow was not even game or book so stop this WOW trolling all time when you see one new mmo. Even blizzard pay you to do this you will put an end.
There called electro priests and you can find them in the lexicanum.
Electro-priests are fanatic cult warriors, responsible for supporting other Tech-priest warriors in battle. Their skins are engraved with a metallic electoo circuit which spirals around their bodies and interfaces with their minds, allowing them to build up a tremendous current of electrical energy.
As Electro-priests enter battle they chant Cult litanies, building up their electric energy and driving themselves into a frenzy of destruction.
The art style is TERRIBLE for 40k. Everything looks to soft, to nice. I just about want to puke everytime I see that terrain with the grass and the idylic hills, with chaos and the Imperium fighting on it...
I do not see anything wrong with the scenary LordofTime?
it is just Terrain.?
Dark and Gloom depends on What the planet is like. Is it Industrial? is it Death world? Is it a Sorrow planet like Nocturn?
All we seen here is a Ice world. It looks pretty good to be a ice world. Others types we seen was a feral world or it could be a, inside a imperium ship, desert world, Civilised world. That is all we seen and they look pretty good at the moment.
I didnt recall Calderis to be really dark ? It seemed really light.

i dont know what the hell you all are talking about its not wowish at all in like warhammer online they used the same game engine you all are just wow lovers and think everything is wow get over it wow sux hacked galore my acount got hacked while it was offline i had it off for a year and they hacked it go figure wow sux warhamer is awsome
WoW-ish... Warhammer has been around since the early 80s, Warcraft has never been anything more than a shameless rip of it. (Although blizz did execute the computer gaming side of it better, at first.)
this game is made on a old 3d engine, launch in 1998 seriously this is going to be a joke graphically its going to be rly ugle, now all matter for them its to have content and good game play or it will die like warhammer online.
Man...they better really update the graphics cuz by 2013 (supposed release?) these graphics are gonna be crap.....I mean I'm not a graphics whore but damn...others will crucify it.
to all those that say warhammer is a wow clone ummm ya u have no clue what your talking about warhammer and warhammer 40k have been around longer than Blizzard and well starcraft and warcraft are a cheep knock off`s of the warhammer franchies oh and the space mariens make terran marines look like crud
"The Emperor Protects"
now some one give me a stormbolter and a Mrk 7 armor so i can pwn some wow noob`s :)
sounds wowish? :P

i cant wait for relese.....damn can i sleep and wake up 2morrow and the game is out :D
Fri Aug 20 2010 3:55PM ReportI loved the table-top game so this looks great. And btw for those claiming this looks like WoW...
Warhammer 40k was around long before WoW and already was using this form of stylized art so if anyone looks like anyone, it's WoW that looks like 40k.
Fri Aug 20 2010 4:06PM ReportBLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD... oops wrong faction. What I want to know is it Just the two classes or are there going to be IG and such, they showed a Dred can we become one??

Sun Aug 22 2010 12:36AM ReportLooks nice and don't really care if it looks WoWish. It's based on the same universe/lore
Sun Aug 22 2010 2:38AM ReportAnother MMO, this lore I enjoy, hope it endure.
Sun Aug 22 2010 9:29AM Reportthis gona be tab target or FPS style targeting.?
Sun Aug 22 2010 11:57AM ReportIt's scary to a degree... Space marines and imperial guard often clashed because of their zealous views/political mumbo jumbo... So if they're continuously locked in an alliance then the storyline will seem pretty simplified. It better not end up "wowish" and have humans(space marine/imperial guard/battle sisters) vs evil.. humans/aliens..(chaos marines/eldar/dark eldar) The story would be horrendous then :(.
Sun Aug 22 2010 1:42PM ReportI'm still worried out one of their PR people saying it was going to be just like WoW and everyone who liked WoW will like this. Not an exact quote, but pretty much what he said...the trailer looks nice though.
Sun Aug 22 2010 2:36PM ReportScrew that, this is going to tear WoW a new A-hole.
Sun Aug 22 2010 3:30PM ReportSeriously people who yell wow clone need to grow up now. No MMO is a clone of wow. Every MMO is it's own game. There is no reason to hate a game because there are things in game from wow. Every MMO has things that came from wow.
It is like going to Burger king and saying .. sorry not going to buy your product of a hamburger , fries and soft drink because it is a mcdonalds clone. Since mcdonalds is leading seller in fast food and also supply a burger,fries and soft drink. Seriously who cares I will still buy Burger king product because its food and it makes me full. Though if it is does not taste good dont buy there product. At buger king or any other fast food restraunt you do not see people going up to the clerk and saying mcdonalds clone. Eventhough every fast food restraunt is the same.
So there is no point in calling warhammer 40k a wow clone or any other mmo hince they all have same gameplay but all have diffrent IP. If you do call it a wow clone. I want you to go to a fast food restraunt and go up to counter and say I dont want buy your product because your a mcdonalds clone.

Sun Aug 22 2010 3:36PM Reportsorrie double post , I was trying to edit my 1st one but seems like it double can someone delete it?
Sun Aug 22 2010 3:37PM ReportYour mom's a WoW clone and she wears combat boots.
Sun Aug 22 2010 4:29PM ReportGod I hope Tech Priest are no "mages" of the game. Tech Priest should not e casting lightening bolts! Thats what you have the Psychers for.
Sun Aug 22 2010 8:57PM ReportThis is the right direction! 40K has so much potential for sweet story. Looks awesome so far! I'll be playing the shit outta this game.
Mon Aug 23 2010 1:28AM ReportI'll reserve judgement, but I've wanted to play a tech priest in the warhammer 40k pen&paper game, so I'm thrilled it's a choosable class.
Mon Aug 23 2010 4:08AM ReportMotorbikes + Guns = Awesome. Count me in.
Mon Aug 23 2010 5:13AM Reportthis looks like an MMO clone. LULZ!
*fingers crossed for playable Khorne Berserkers*
Mon Aug 23 2010 6:22AM Reportclassic idiots with wow all time. This game have history so old that you didnt even borne when and wow was not even game or book so stop this WOW trolling all time when you see one new mmo. Even blizzard pay you to do this you will put an end.
Mon Aug 23 2010 7:42AM Report@shadowmage , Um some Techpriests are mages.
There called electro priests and you can find them in the lexicanum.
Electro-priests are fanatic cult warriors, responsible for supporting other Tech-priest warriors in battle. Their skins are engraved with a metallic electoo circuit which spirals around their bodies and interfaces with their minds, allowing them to build up a tremendous current of electrical energy.
As Electro-priests enter battle they chant Cult litanies, building up their electric energy and driving themselves into a frenzy of destruction.

Mon Aug 23 2010 11:19AM ReportAs someone who is a huge Warhammer 40k fan...
I can honestly say I'm hugely dissapointed.
The art style is TERRIBLE for 40k. Everything looks to soft, to nice. I just about want to puke everytime I see that terrain with the grass and the idylic hills, with chaos and the Imperium fighting on it...
Everything about it just feels wrong...
Mon Aug 23 2010 11:48AM ReportI do not see anything wrong with the scenary LordofTime?
it is just Terrain.?
Dark and Gloom depends on What the planet is like. Is it Industrial? is it Death world? Is it a Sorrow planet like Nocturn?
All we seen here is a Ice world. It looks pretty good to be a ice world. Others types we seen was a feral world or it could be a, inside a imperium ship, desert world, Civilised world. That is all we seen and they look pretty good at the moment.
I didnt recall Calderis to be really dark ? It seemed really light.

Mon Aug 23 2010 4:37PM ReportThis is the Warhammer I wanted to be an MMO, hope it's as fun as it looks.
Mon Aug 23 2010 5:50PM Reportfatchicken. ?
When in wow could you travel to other types of planets on a gigantic space ship?
I do not think Orcs in wow are not that smart enough to make a big whopping gothic battlecruiser that can destroy a planet .
Mon Aug 23 2010 9:55PM ReportHoly crap did they just make this game from DOW2 engine minus any sort of effects!
I mean they even had a scene (space ship entering the warp) from DOW2.
Who the f--k thought this video was a good idea!
Well now this game is doomed for lauch any takers on when the next 40K WoW clone will be?
Tue Aug 24 2010 9:10AM ReportHell, I had to wait 2 years for WH40KDMO release. *upset*
Tue Aug 24 2010 1:45PM Reporti dont know what the hell you all are talking about its not wowish at all in like warhammer online they used the same game engine you all are just wow lovers and think everything is wow get over it wow sux hacked galore my acount got hacked while it was offline i had it off for a year and they hacked it go figure wow sux warhamer is awsome
Wed Aug 25 2010 1:23AM ReportHave to admit they know how to sell it.
I really hope that is ingame footage and everything we saw is playable and not just done for the trailer.
Wed Aug 25 2010 1:53PM ReportWoW-ish... Warhammer has been around since the early 80s, Warcraft has never been anything more than a shameless rip of it. (Although blizz did execute the computer gaming side of it better, at first.)
Thu Aug 26 2010 4:03AM ReportWarhammer 40K MMORPG? I'm in!
Fri Sep 03 2010 8:34PM Reportthis game is made on a old 3d engine, launch in 1998 seriously this is going to be a joke graphically its going to be rly ugle, now all matter for them its to have content and good game play or it will die like warhammer online.

Tue Nov 02 2010 7:32AM ReportDO WANT!!! i can't wait for this to come out!
Fri Nov 05 2010 9:46AM ReportIf it's a class system, linear world, grindfest, gear race then yes it will be a WoW clone.
Tue Nov 09 2010 5:38PM ReportMan...they better really update the graphics cuz by 2013 (supposed release?) these graphics are gonna be crap.....I mean I'm not a graphics whore but damn...others will crucify it.
Wed Nov 10 2010 9:12AM ReportYea hope the graphics get better by release time, 2013. Maybe they have a good art person that can handle it.
