Sweet. I'm set, then!
everyone needs to look at these 3 "Old warhammer" gameplay vids and appreciate what we have now instead of what we could have gotten
it should be mandatory
But Climax was not the company to realize that potential.
is someone else hosting the beta client?
There is a torrent up.
this game has come a long way. huzzah!
That voice is awesome though
Thoroughly agreed.

Mythic has confirmed repeatedly that Skaven are not ingame.
These baseless assertions grate more on my nerves every day.

Skaven don't exist at all, in fact. Those rumors of giant ratmen? All false.
The irony!
All suspects who have seen the imaginary ratmen report to your nearest Witch Hunter, for investigation.
But I long ago vowed never again to purchase a mmo that I haven't tried out first. (thats for you, Horizons)
Those of you who are playing it, does it have staying power? Or are people going to flock to it, then bail on it like AoC?
I'd say it has staying power. The problem with AoC is that it's content sparse. It's basically half a game. The first 20-30 levels are fine, but then you get left in a barren wasteland of nothing. WAR has the content, right now, even with those announced cuts.
Fuck no, Mythic has been taking great lengths to make sure that WAR is NOT another generic WoW clone or a complete failure like AoC.
The main difference is that Mythic knows WAR is a PvP game. PvP is the real end game in an MMO, not doing a dungeon instance 50 times with friends. WAR is a PvP game, and PvE is the side. That is the main difference and assuring that the PvP is very high quality, they already have assured that the game is not a surefire flop like AoC.
I don't like MMO PvP, generally, and I love WAR. It could have something to do with being a Warhammer nut though.
I don't usually, either, but I loved PvP in DAoC. Sieges were fantastic. Big surprise that I enjoy WAR, then, eh?

I am seriously crying right now. You should see it. My wife is laughing at me.
Or I would be if you weren't propagating ridiculous myths.
Always take Scenario rankings with a huge grain of salt ... I've been in matches with tanks being on top of the list by far. It's not that they do more DPS but if they have good healers, they'll never die so by default they do more total damage. Also, Sorc/BW self-damage is calculated in their totals, too.
Doesn't mean I'm not happy when I'm top though!
Ahaha, Cotswold. Nice Mythic. Nice.
I thought that Moon one was the only one. XD
It's a little tough but not too unusual for MMOs and better than most except for WoW. Definitely easier going than EQ2 or VG. The only time I personally notice any issues is in certain towns when there's tons of people and sometimes after playing for a while but otherwise it's pretty smooth (there's some slight jerkiness/tearing in their engine but that's not computer's issue, that's their end and hopefully they'll clean that up as time goes on)
I believe there are screenshots from those places in the other thread. Cool to see it in motion though :0
It's not that much of a heavy hitter on graphics tbh. Just as long as you have a nimble enough of a card because there really isn't a lot of post processing.
I have only seen it once dip down to 20fps with an 2.66ghz core 2 duo proc, 5gigs of DDR2 ram, and an 8800GT. Most of the time it is up to 40-50. They have done a good job making sure that the game is optimized even when there are 50+ characters on screen.
Woe betide my grades.
Well, you might be dissapointed.
WoW will look okay on almost any graphical level because of the art style.
WAR can start to look kinda iffy on lower levels, because of the more realistic style. But even on lower settings it looks pretty good. All based on your opinion.
I think they may have opened a tad too many servers...
First day of OB was great.
As of today, it takes...I don't know, HOURS, to get into the T2 Dwarves / Greenskins Scenario on my server, and I'm Order even. I'm not sure if the majority of players are above / below T2 on this server, but holy crap this sucks.
