WAR is on it's way.

Ozymandias:
Oh, I totally agree with that.

The Warcraft universe has expanded far away from the original Warhammer setting, mostly thanks to Warcraft 3.

I'm just saying, it's kind of a ridiculously bad spot for GW, now that they're going to have to compete with the people who basically stole their idea and are doing way better with it.

Trollstormur:
Mythic's last major MMORPG has 45 classes, so i don't think balance will be much of an issue, they're clearly very experienced in this regard.


edit: that's not counting the 12ish "starter" classes that you grow out of at level 10 or 15. i don't recall which.

Leinad:
To be honest I enjoy the Warhammer background and story a lot more than the WoW one, but the differences are not, admittedly, huge. It may suck to be living in the shadow of WoW a bit, but I think they tackled this nicely by making the end-game mechanic decidedly different than WoW, and I think the different fluff of Warhammer plus the different end-game content will make it very popular, or at least extremely awesome to me.

A Wet Helmet:
I've been in beta for quite some time.  Now that the NDA is dropped, I think the game is ok.

That's it.  Just ok.  I wanted to love it, I really did.  But I don't.  Is it better than WoW?  That depends on if you prefer PvP or PvE. 


This thing is going to be like an MMO version of Counterstrike for me.  I'm going to have an hour to kill, I'll log in, run to to an RvR zone and fight.  When I log off, I'll be done.   It doesn't compel me to play.  Honestly, the beta forums are more fun than the game, in my opinion.

Covetous:
The amount of game performance I get out of this game compared to my rig is silly. I had max setting in wow and still had better FPS in shat (on a very hight pop server) then I do standing still looking in to a wall with low setting in WAR. Plain silly. The PQs are nice, allthough somewhat unfari. Several times I have just come in to a PQ in the last part, healed some, done some damage and came like second on the rolls.

It is nice and it is not WoW. But they sure as hell have to fix the performance soon. I will probably miss the PvE content that was i WoW but I hope that RvR in big guild groups can compensate. The PvP and RvR is way much better. It really feels like you are two big factions in war with eachother insted of alot of bar brawlers.

I would say that functionallity and concept wise WAR is a more fun game than WoW, but WoW is so much more polished and have had quite a bit more programmer experience behind it so performance wise it is much better.

(Comparing to WoW sins that the only other MMORPG I've played.)
