    Default Warhammer Online: Character Info

    Screw you, WoW! You're fat and ugly! Warhammer is shiny and new. And better. BETTER.

    Post your character name!

    On Grimnir server:
    Mine is Laulkaat. Dark Elf race, Witch Elf class.
    And I just made an alt to play when BJ isn't home: Cheasbegyr. Chaos race, Zealot class.

    I swear if I'm the only person on this whole forum playing this game I'm leaving EoFF forever. WAR is so much better than WoW.

    A friend of mine wants to get it but only if I get it as well. My computer is a piece of crap at the moment though and cannot run it. What's the game like? He says it's more PVP-oriented than WoW and has lots more things to do. I haven't read a thing about it though :P

    It does take a decent machine to run it. The minimum required memory (which I think is 1.3GB) is going to make any PvP hard. My machine works great with 2GB memory though.

    So far I've only gotten to level rank seven, so I haven't explored much. But so far there's the basic stuff like tons of quests and exploring, then there are public quests (which I love), RvR areas, RvR scenarios, PvP. In addition to being rank seven, I'm renoun rank six and have full influence in Dark Elf chapter 1 and 2. You also get a job rank once you get a job (butcher, scavenger, etc), and your guild gets a rank.

    I haven't yet figured out how the actual "war" works since I haven't gotten very far, but it looks cool.

    So, basically, there's lots to do. I think a lot of people are biased against it because they <3 <3 WoW, but I thought WoW was lame when I played the beta, not to mention ugly, so I <3 <3 WAR.

    I played it in beta and since release, but dropped it until it gets upgraded more. Keep battles just lag too badly, no matter what computer you have. Classes are horribly unbalanced, city sieges (end game) are instanced and capped at 35 or 45 players(forgot) which I find to take out the epicness of the game. The whole PQ system is pretty much garbage considering barely anyone does them, there is simply way too many of them and people are too scattered around, doesn't help that guilds do them alone and don't let strangers join them.

    It is a pretty cool idea for a game, though, I'll give it that, it simply just needs some work. Reasonable though since it has only been out for a month.

    Anywho I only commented like this since I saw you guys chatting it up.

    Awww I'd try again.

    But SotNW is so awesome atm.

    That and they have massive... MASSIVE Imbas between classes that are yet to be vanquished, almost made me fake-vommit.

    It needs some major updates before I see it agenz :3

    I rarely have a problem with being unable to finish a public quest. There are plenty of people around and I've never had a problem joining an open party. Don't often experience lag either, except when those Order bastards AOE like hell.

    There is some class imbalance but they're updating those kinds of things very regularly.

    For how much I've been enjoying this game, it'll be super awesome once they've gotten to the point where they've fixed the release bugs and are adding new features.

    Aha!

    See this is why I hate people who review MMOs, they don't understand the concept of updates, even now as you say, it's changing for the better

    Yeah, updates are pretty constant. Just a few days ago the mail system went from useless crap to absolute perfection. I have no real complaints about the game.

    Diligence, the Witch Hunter reports for duty on the Phoenix Throne RP server. I had suffered from Alt-itis for months, but I think I'm cured. I hope... I can heartily recommend Phoenix Throne for a server, because it's always packed, and the RP'ers do a pretty good job of always keeping things entertaining. Also, no stupid names allowed. It's a dream come true. Minimal internet-speak, and no dumb names.

    Seems you beat the minimum CPU by .5ghz.

    You double the minimum gfx card memory, and your card is supported.

    Do you have one or two gbs of ram depending on your OS?

    If so, what are you waiting for? War is everywhere, soldier. Get out there and kick some...
