DeathNote said:So I only played the beta.
How is the game nowadays?
phinious said:Ok I resubscribed to check out the changes, Look for Vent. Hopefully I can still transfer!
phinious said: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.
On which server are you? I keep doing RVR in BadLands. I joined a guild now. I am loving the game.phinious said: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.

Thant annecdote refers to WC III not WoW. Also, Morale abilities do fell unresponsive sometimes.Zefah said: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.
Ganking is not much of an issue. each zone is basically cut in half between Order and Destruction and it is a pain in the ass to get to the opposing fraction's side.witness said:Okay, I know I'm getting this game for christmas tomorrow, can someone recommend a good PVE (in a WoW sense) server? I like opting into PVP when I'm in the mood and don't have to worry about getting ganked when I'm out and about.
phinious 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.
Kintaro said: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.
OmegaErock said: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.![]()

whiterabbit said: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
phinious said: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.

parasight said:Wow, is it really that good? How come I never hear about this?
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.
RiverBed said:question time:
I want to change my account name. if I close my account and start a new one, can I still use the same game key to register or do I have to buy another copy of the game?

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..
TheOneGuy said:Has the game stopped being insanely repetitive, yet.
I once said I'd come back to play the choppa, because goddamnit that's what I wanted from the getgo, but after a few months off...
