• • Why does WoW look quite like WAR?

  • WAR is SUPPOSED to look like that. It wouldent really be warhammer if they changed the look. Also there would be no way you could RvR with 200 people or whatever if the graphics was super uber. Would be nothing but laaaag. Untill every person has a super computer sitting on thier desks thats just how it is. Honestly sometimes I think people wont be happy untill they are plugged into the matrix. Then again if you want that much realism then the best thing to do is /quit and go outside.. lol

    WoW is a good game if your a hardcore PvE'er. I like the game but since I have played it since the day it released im just way to bored of it. However... it is a fact blizz has been ripping off  warhammer since Warcraft: orcs and humans. Why should WAR change its look because another game has been ripping it off?

    WAR (Warhammer Online)
• • Warhammer Online lacks end game

  • not a fanboy. doubt i will even play it for atleast a few months after release. got better stuff in RL to do. but they said at the start this game would have very little crafting. so again ya cant really bitch about it to much. since they told you up front. but the stuff you can make is usefull on the battle field so whats the complaint? like i said this game is all about the rvr. next people will bitch they cant go fishing and bake birthday cakes. dude there are TONS of other games with all that type of stuff. just go play one of those and not bitch about a game thats not about such stuff an never pretended to be:P

    Let me get straight to the point, this game has very little end game and they've been covering it up for months tryting to get you hyped with the PvP. Umm they arnt covering it up with PvP, this game IS pvp(rvr). But there's honestly nothing to do after level 40 and renown rank 80. Umm go kill the enemy? I guess you have to be a hard core pvper or atleast a old DAoC player like me.. but after I got max level/RA I never got bored of playing that toon. Running around killin the other realms, taking keeps, taking relics was always fun and never got boring.

    End Game:

    - Crafting I guess if you like to craft rather than gutting your enemy like a fish...

    - Guild Sieging You dont have to be in a guild to rvr or help with a siege. Thought id throw that out there.. either way sieging is fun :P

    - Enemy capital city Hmm slaugter the enemy, sack his city, kill his king, open locked areas and quests.. im guess im missing the part where thats not fun? lol

    - Scenarios (Gonna be tired of them by lvl 40) Then dont do them, do some real rvr.

    Have I missed anything, I mean is there really anything else to do, open world RvR is just like guild sieging, so basically this game has empty end game just like the rest of them. If you don't have a guild, don't plan on seeing good end game because there's not. No competition, nothing, and in the end, they may come out with some type of updates, but I'll be still playing Warhammer because I have a guild, I don't know about u guys, nothing really in this game besides guild competition.

    No competition? Are you nuts? Order vs Chaos! There will always be competition unless one side suddenly never logs into the game for some reason lol and I dont get what you mean about guild competition, this isnt AoC, this is WAR and its about order vs chaos.. good vs evil.. RVfreakinR! not guild vs guild. Sounds like you want to play a game like WoW or something.. where once you work your ass off to get max level an good gear they slap you in the face with some retarded expantion and make you grind all over again for levels and gear. Personaly I hate that crap. If I wanted to grind again id make a new toon to level up. Annoys the hell out of me they take your hard earned toon and make him suck all over again. WAR does have end game, its called RVR! Thats always what the game has been about. That fact has never been hidden. No one has any right to complain about lack of anything else beyond rvr since you go into the game knowing what its about. Thats like playing hello kitty online an then complaining you cant decapitate fellow players and drink thier blood.

    So to overcome grind...you replace the gear grind with a skill grind?

    Very true. I always find it funny how people go all boohoo about grinding and want a skill based game but you STILL have to grind in one way or another to get your skill up. Take UO for example, I was a long time UO player.. and I cant even remember how many hours a day I spent fireballing myself to get resist up an shit like that. Way to many fuckin hours tho I asure you that lol. About the best way to do it was macro skills and gain while you sleep or expliot a bug (like the blade spirit bug before they fixed it to get resist up).. but then you run the risk of getting your account banned an shit. I wasted more hours of my life trying to get 7xgm skills in UO than I ever have getting to max level in any other game. lol

     

    Dont get me wrong I like skill based games. UO was the shit! But its still a grind no matter how you look at it in ANY game no matter if its skill based or level based. About the only way to get around the grind is if they give you max skills/level as soon as you start your character. But that would be lame. Sure they could just make leveling skills or levels up super fast and easy but then that would get kinda lame too.. cuz if there is no challenge.. whats the point of even playing?

    When it comes to the grind there is no difference when it comes to..

    "woot! finaly dinged 20!"

    "woot! finaly got .5 more skill in (insert skill name here)"

    Now im not bashing skill based games at all. They have good points to them over some level based games. Just saying when it comes to the grind its pretty much all the same.
