It's not been bad so far, but could we keep posts that contain nothing but "I hate all MMO's" out of this topic? There are at least fifteen threads for that stuff already, and I really want to talk about Warhammer Online!

then you can help me!! i am stuck on the fence between black ork and chosen i used to play chaos when i was into the hobby but i rely like the orks as well, i know the chosen has the nifty aura skills and can help out more in a team but i also was told the ork is a better melee dps class

and from what i have seen the chosen gets more aggro from people because of his aura affecting anything within 30ft

the other races will be released with expansion packs most probably and the skaven and vampire counts are in the game as enemies you have to think they need to look to the future if the game is a big success they will need to add content they cant add everything in one and they did add there core army's as i said wait and see they will add more in the future

i think they'll do undead before vampire counts probly, i'd like to see more specific chaos stuff, like being able to select which chaos god you follow

but skaven ARE in the game just not playable at the moment

hmm..

well andy hoare did verify lizards for a release next year, and having a lustria expansion would certainly open up the world...

i want lizards and skaven for the first expansion, wood elves and beastmen as the second- to allow players to enter the great forests.

just my 2 pennies

You should probably have a look at the wiki. I'm not really an expert, but the Chosen looks like a paladin-style tank to me (just y'know... evil) and the Black Orc more like a traditional warrior tank.

Necro'ed!

I just got my game today, half an hour ago actually. Since my measly 512k connection gave up at the mere thought of downloading the 10G client, it is currently struggling with updating the game as well (I can't decide if a 822 MB patch released before the game oficially starts is good or bad).

So! While I waste my time here not righteously blasting dark elves, I was wondering if the people who are already in the game, or the ones just starting out want to post some info on what server they are playing/intend to play on? Don't forget to add your continent as well, i.e. Europe, North America, Oceania, the Moon...

I know my room mate is all Waaaaagh about Warhammer Online, I for one never really cared for the game. I'm not a Warhammer Fantasy fan, and I HATE MMORPGs. Had they done it as a RTS, FPS, single player action/adventure, or even a puzzle game, I'd probably gotten interested, but the second Mumorpeger gets slapped on the box, it's a no-sale.

Hmmm. Warhammer Fantasy Puzzle game... The Rubix Squig, Chaos Word Searches, and Tau Sudoku?
Warhammer SPORTS game. Bloodbowl. Woot.

This defender of righteousness is waiting on reviews of endgame before spending his hard earned gold on this game. Looks like the MMO breaker, though, with the combat system being more than click until dead.

The combat system's not really any different from other MMO's, except the auto-attack is painfully slow. If you adore PvP (and of course the Warhammer universe) you'll adore WAR. It has all the immediacy of WoW, but none of LotRO's swooning beauty. Public quests work well, and the fact that you can gain experience purely through PvP should be applauded. It's uglier than a bag of tongues, but you won't give a shit about that when you're getting humiliatingly "pwnt" by 12 year-old for the fifteenth time. I couldn't keep up with it all to be honest, I was like a Christopher Reeve in a world of Usain Bolts.

Jesus guys, how many times do I have to necro this? Am I the only one playing the game or what? I'm playing on Karak-a-Kazak, EU Roleplay server and highly enjoying it. People are friendly and very good at staying in character. My main character is Calavel (rank 9 Archmage). Send me a message if you want to hang out or do some quests.

Yeah, I like that every faction has "unique" careers, even if they did cut out some of them. I have a rank 5 Black Orc and I have to say, so far it's kinda boring. Do the abilities get more interesting or is it all use ability A which leads to B then to C and then over again? I have a Witch Hunter and Archmage too, and I think they are much more fun to play. And I usually enjoy tanking.

What server are you on, by the way?
