    I think we should just not wear any nacy boy color like purple and paint our selves in the blood of our enemies.

    Purple and silver looks so much better then purple and gold.

    So, how quickly is it going to take for WAGGGHHH to get irritatingly over used? I give it three days tops.

    "For the horde" was abused the moment I logged in during open beta.

    Yeah, after seeing the length of the Disciple's blades and the style of their attacks I'm even more sold on the career. As long as they don't look completely awkward with a single blade and chalice that is. Long rapiers and lots of flourish? Yes please!

    It also looks like a lot of stuff doesn't have textures; I have a feeling beta has just about everything turned off or down for the mechanics testing phases.

    The elf animations still look bland too, though the marauders and witch hunter looked alright.

    I'm also happy to hear that it doesn't sound horrible like many of the earlier videos. All sword clashing and explosions. Perfect.

    At points it does. The witch elf who wasn't actually attacking and kept jumping was annoying.

    Also, those videos really give the sense of scale I noticed when playing the demos. The game doesn't feel like a WoW-style miniature toy world. Terrain is appropriately large.

    Goddamnit, I want to watch, but I'm at work. Fuck.

    I am becoming more and more iffy about my choice of class after going back and re-reading them last night. Marauders just seem so much more awesome every time I read about them.

    Also, I need to formulate a plan to get my girlfriend into MMOs before this game comes out so I can make her play it with me. Hmm.

    Warhammer is always a tough sell for women.

    Is she into knives and stabbing at all? Witch elves might be an option.

    She's more into punching and stomping.

    EDIT: And she's into painting minis, so I figure that's the gateway.

    Is there any chance that we could get a list of the people who are in beta going at some point? Maybe on the first post? Forums names of course so there is no NDA breakage, but those people could like PM each other or some crap.

    I'm in the beta.

    We should kill and/or anti-kill each other.

    Does it break an NDA to post your in-game name , in said game? I mean, I don't think it would, but I've been wrong plenty of times in my life. What do you guys think?

    I'd say it is safe to post the name of your character so others in the beta may get into contact with you. The name means nothing, unless your name is WARactuallysucksdon'tbuyit.

    Yeah, one would think that. However, as a (allegedly) a member of the not-yet-existant guild beta, I do think I was told to not even post prospective names. I'm pretty sure there are beta forums (somewhere) where beta people can talk about stuff.
