is there any place online where I can get just the key for a discounted price or so?
Anyone have any experience with www.allcdkey.com?
I swear Mythic doesn't know how to patch their game without fucking something major up. The past two patches have made the game completely unplayable for me. 1.0.6 in oRvR had major spell casting delay... 1-3 seconds for anything more than an instant ability. Any now with 1.1a I can't get my spells to even cast half the time. I don't know what it is, buf if I'm getting attacked by Destruction players I can't do anything. Instant spells won't cast, anything with a cast bar won't even start casting. I just keep getting the message "That ability is not ready yet" despite there being nothing else preventing me from using my abilities. I get stuck in the animation of an ability and it just never goes off.

Sure it's worth trying. There are some bugs though as Nataku said. However, it's still a lot of fun.
is there any plans to add actual end game content? Seems rvr is the same at 31 as it is at 40, only difference is your toon is stronger. This would normally be enough, but the most efficient way of gaining RP is by taking unguarded keeps and objectives.
The only new content at 40 seems to be pve stuff. I find this confusing given the fact that this is supposed to be the game thats all about pvp

The biggest problem is hardly any servers have been able to do a city invasion due to fortress zone crashing.
End Game RVR itemization is also pretty rough due to the super low timers on keep PQ chests, and the fact that gear drops only occur if your opponent is above a certain RR. IF you win a bag during a rarely successful fortress raid, good luck getting your bag in 30 seconds.

Fuck, all these months and the stupid bug that makes the game crash on window mode is still there.
I am playing on BadLands now, Order. I like the LIVE events, the give me something to do. I am trying to get that damn keg.
BTW, I need a guild, please pm me if you have a hookup.

I've been thinking about getting into WAR but I don't know very much about the, uh, current state of the game.
How is it with bugs and stuff, have they fixed many of the problems/bugs that were discovered at launch? Are the players evenly spread out between Destruction/Order? Are the classes balanced?

The only bug I've noticed is the one I mentioned, besides that my experience is flawless. All classes are balanced afaik since I keep seeing variety. Also, just join a populated server like Badlands and you will always find yourself fighting along dozens of players all the time.

Ok So I transfered to Ungrim (SP?), but I may just let the subscription go for good now. I played last night and I just didnt have any fun.
Granted I didnt do any RvR yet, because none was going on in the 2 hours I logged in. I did some scenerios, and for a game that is suppsed to be more RvR oriented than anything else.... I kinda think it fails. I had more fun in WoW BGs. I lasted a much longer time in WoW, abilities seemed to go off without any lag, and a single person could make a much difference in the outcome of the battle. The opposite is true with WAR. I wish it were better.
Ill play a little more to be certain, but as of now I think this game will be uninstalled after this month.... for good.

This was annoying as hell when I played the game for the first month. UI responsiveness really needs to be one of the primary issues that developers get perfected before releasing their game. I remember reading some interview with a World of Warcraft dev around the time WoW was released and he was talking about how they found something like a 5 millisecond lag between pressing a button on the mouse / keyboard and having the UI respond. Even though it was a tiny amount of lag, it still made the UI feel slightly unresponsive and detracted from the experience, so they hammered it out before release.
Warhammer was particularly bad in this area in my opinion and being primarily a PvP game this really hurt it. Morale abilities were espcially bad in this regard.

Thant annecdote refers to WC III not WoW. Also, Morale abilities do fell unresponsive sometimes.Zefah said:
I really think alot of the concepts for the game are cool. If they could just make the combat more responsive (less lag), and give combat more of a weighted feel. I can't really describe it well, but everything I do in the game feels insignificant. In WoW I could make a huge difference in the outcome of battlegrounds, where in warhammer I feel like no matter what I do its not really gonna change the outcome of the battle. Its almost like your lost in the crowd in Warhammer.
For a game where you can get jibbed so fast, there is way way to much lag involved. Witch Elves, for instance, can kill you before you can get a single ability off due to lag. In WoW if a rogue got the jump on you, you would probably die, but atleast you could do something before that happens.

Warhammer PvP is all about the teamwork. If that's not your style then it's not the game for you. There's no army of one in Warhammer, at least from my experience. When classes devolved into one on one, the game was unfun. When the team played together, it was fantastically awesome.
I'm surprised they haven't fixed the lag issues yet.

I like the team based PVP a lot more than WoWs sorry excuse for PVP.
They did fix the UI lag issues in patch 1.06 and the combat finally felt how it should, but then UI lag came back with 1.1. Now there is animation lag and freezing as well.

Yeah, it was weird. 1.0.6 felt amazing in solo and small group play, but was terrible in large scale RvR. It was actually less responsive than before. With 1.1 they made lare scale RvR better, but the responsiveness of solo and small group play suffered.

I think this is one of the biggest reasons that the game world feels empty on pretty much all servers. The game is way too restrictive and cut up into little pieces that only a small segment of the population has access to at a time. With each zone there are two sides for each faction with a small area designated for PvP. You can't raid each other's areas or camps because there are invincible guards that one-shot anyone who dares come within aggro radius. Then you have the problem of breaking up that system further into "tiers" where you have to be in a specific level range to even participate in the zone. If you are a level too high then you get turned into a chicken and if you are a level too low you can't even enter the area. It creates an extremely linear and extremely controlled environment where there is pretty much zero freedom for dynamic PvP encounters. You either queue up and do scenarios over and over again, or you go to the designated PvP area and hope you find some other people there or just get a couple of friends together and kill the NPC guards for some easy renown points.
For a game that is supposed to be all about PvP and is supposed to be set in a world of constant war and battle, it sure feels empty. They needed to make an open world where there is a lot of overlapping between the two factions' areas so there will constantly be skirmishes happening on the world map. Scenarios were probably a bad idea for the longevity of the game as well in retrospect.
So I got this game yesterday for christmas. I have a warrior priest up to level 8. Starting areas seem crowded, lots of people on. I love the fact that it tells you on the map where to go for your quests, I like how many quests are all about PVP. My only problem is that it doesn't run nearly as well WoW runs on my crappy lap top.
The game is ok, but there are alot of stupid design decisions that kind of crippled it >_<
Things like not having zone wide chat for like a month helped kill off the community feel. And lots of places just feel empty. Opening too many servers at launch with too small player caps... etc...
I hope they fix it, I want to try again in a month or so... but I think there are some pretty big flaws that need to be fixed.
Playing wow, the combat just feels so much tighter and responsive.
I dont know... I want it to do well, but they might have dug themselves in too deep to really fix it.

Have a Rank 24 Knight of the Blazing sun now, damn I love them fucking love how they play. So nice running up to Destro and smashing their faces with just one healer and having them all scatter like chickens cause they ignore me then I kill all their casters and healers hahaha.
I've given up on Warhammer for now, the game has turned into musical chairs, with the sole focus on getting undefended keeps and Battlefield Objectives.
And then there is the fact playing a mdps class you feel useless at keep sieges, won't even start on city sieges that are giant PQ grinds against mobs.
I enjoy the pvp aspect, but the current RvR mechanisms stink.
I also wish the world was not instanced, the one thing I love about Warcraft is the world is nice and streamlined.
Oh and last point, it was rather annoying my White Lion seemed to look the same from level 10-40.

Anyone else think the latest patch is lame. The way they are fixing fortress raid lag, is by limiting the number of people that can participate in the raid. After i read that I didnt even bother logging in last night.
How abotu fixing the netcode or upgrading the servers. I mean seriously, that is LAME.

I have a hard time responding to your posts because it almost seems like you're trolling or something these days. I haven't been playing cuz my computer tied, but I uh think that it's a change for the better, because I've been in more fortress siege/defenses that crashed than ones that I actually got to play through...
Anyway, game got #2 in GotY from GameSpy, check it out: http://goty.gamespy.com/2008/overall/9.html

It is not that easy. You can't just fix it after your game went live. And apparently they had to do something fast. It was a problem for months now and as far as I understand people even joined the fortress fight with low level characters only to crash the server and reset the campaign. Yes, this solution is probably the worst thing they could do to fix this problem, but they had to do something.
whiterabbit said:
Sorry, im not trying to troll. I was actually having fun with the game! I was logging in every night for a couple hours! I love the fortress battles. I shoudl probably make positive poss when I have a fun time to even out all my negative ones.
I'm not complaining that they fixed the crashes, I'm compaining on how they did it. Pretend for a minute your in my shoes, a lvl 37. Noone ever does dungeons anymroe, noone does public quests, scenerios pop and end after 1 minute becuase the teams arent full, but everyone does RvR and its a ton of fun!
Now they make it where you cannot participate in the RvR because there are too many people there..... what do you do?
I mean its kinda lame in a MMO to limit how massively multiplayer it is, you know? All the action happens at the forts, but only a fraction of the people are allowed to participate. Is that how Camelot was?
You say youve been in more fortress battles that have crashed, but are you now prepared to be booted from fort battles because there are too many players there? Personally I dont see the difference.
I really am not trying to pee in your cereal dude! Sorry if you get that impression. I guess I do just come in this thread when I have something to complain about.

It's a pretty awesome game and I think it's deserving of #2 GoTY, hell, it's my personal game of the year, so take that for what it's worth. It still seems pretty lively, I logged on my lvl 5 warrior priest and when I queued for a scenario it immediately popped. I also personally enjoyed the pve leveling aspect of the game, as well as the end game instances, even crafting is fun, and lots of options how to gear, spec, and play your character. Like somebody said, the game of 'musical chairs' of keeps can get tedious, however, when it's good, it's good... so yeah, it is.
Part of this patch as I gather is also to even the sides so that the fight is not unbalanced, like scenarios, where each team has a chance. And, well, some of those crashes we tried the siege again after it crashed, yet to have it crash again, so that's what I was counting. So it's actually even. Ive yet to take part in a SUCCESSFUL fort capture though.
However, you really should give it a chance before you start complaining about it. It doesn't sound like it's actually happened to you yet, and from what I gather, they are trying to implement separate zones so that more people in general will be able to participate, and keep the sides even, and if one slide is full, yes, they will cut off people who are not yet 40 starting at 35,37, and so on or whatever.
Ya know, cuz anything is better than crashing, and I'm sure most 40s who want to will be able to go, since I HAVE been to some sieges/defenses with tons of people that didnt crash. Im not very worried about it, anyway we'll have to see. Also, theres a big announcement set for the end of this month.

so i logged out in reikland, and while offline my side capped the order capital. The zones had reset by the time I logged back on, and reikland was under order control again.
When i logged in i was a chicken in t1, unable to book or scroll, and forced to run to the nearest war camp to leave the zone

T-minus 2.5 days till the announcement (the 29th).
http://thegreenskin.com/2009/01/22/is-mythic-ready-to-unleash-the-orc-choppa/
Looks like Slayer and Choppa are what the announcement will be.
Pretty surprising, to be honest. I never expected them to add the other two careers to the game so soon after Knight of the Blazing Sun and the Black Guard. I was hoping for the capital cities for at least one pairing (Dward vs Greenskins especially).
I really hope they have some big ORvR changes to go along with the announcements. Fortress and Keep lord room designs need to change, IMO. Heck, the entire fortress/keep encounter could use some pretty big changes..

I think it's a good move on Mythic's part to add in the rest of the classes. It'll keep people interested in sticking around or, for somebody like me, resubscribing. As for the Forts, I agree, I would like to see them worked on, because from what I've experienced it is too hard to get to the lord room if it's defended at the top of the ramp, and I'm sure the npc encounter is hard enough as it is. Anyway, there's also a class balancing patch to look out for.
