[WAR] Are you in the beta action, or are you some kinda sissy girl?
I have to wait another day but I already have the client downloaded this is killing me
hey
are you sure sure sure that's the right client?
should i get down on the torrent action right now or try and suck it up until tommorow?
Well it opens up and says "BETA WOT IS CLOSED". I knew I was only approved for Open Beta so unless I am incredibly lucky I wasn't gonna be playing, I was just assuming that I could patch the Closed Beta client tomorrow when they release the shit.
I'm pretty much playing the career I will in Live so I can chill reading Lore and Tome pages. So much good stuff in this game, at least come live I can speed through the clusterfuck in the first few chapters.

I don't see how the choppa/hammerer can work as a light dps class
maybe as a tank
but if you're supposed to get into combat and stay in combat for as long as possible to get the most out of your class, what are you going to be able to hit? Tanks? Hell, didn't one of their interviews state that support/healy classes and tanks have an advantage against melee dps -- what would the choppa/hammerer actually be good against?
Retarded people playing ranged dps classes don't count.
they'd be good against the same targets the marauder and white lions are supposed to be good against

I thought the other melee dps like the marauder weren't so focused around grinding/charging up time in melee.
I mean, the remaining light melee classes theoretically can jump around and hit shit and still be able to use most of your abilities if you're, say, being kited. Like a rogue in WoW still generates energy while not in melee.
I don't really know much of anything other than the two melee dps classes removed were basically identical -- light melee that wanted to remain in something's face as long as possible in order to use their rage/momentum abilities.

Err... Was that their mechanic? I got to be careful what I say here, NDA and all.

Just sayin'. Lore and stuff, y'now.
I'm surprised people still are talking about this.
Look, the class flat sucked. It play mechanics and stuff pretty much boiled down to intricate combos and craptacular fight style.
Note: I didn't actually play the choppa, but from everyone I have heard, including a dev, that's pretty much what ended up happening.
No one wants you here, go back to the cruel reality that you came from.
Well, write up a design doc and send it there way
Also, MAKE TORRENT GO FASTER

Whoa whoa whoa
Since when has Wren been smart?
If they bring back the Choppa the Hammerer will be back too, to balance out the idiocy.
Do they have to market either class? They're like the two most iconic classes in Warhammer.
They marketed Choppa and Hammerer more than most classes.
The only class that never had any marketing at all (minus the announcement) was the Blackguard.

I shall talk when they lift ze NDA.
If we're talking Warhammer universe in general, you have to go with Troll Slayer for most iconic.
