WAR (Warhammer Online)

Bah, I just found out this game will not have housing options. That's a serious blow against it.

Hope they'll implement it at a later point.

theres always a chance for housing. as nice as it would be if there was housing on a MMO's release. i doubt well see much of it. houseing is great to help add hype to an expansion or patch. thow there isnt much need for housing in WoW im still waitin on it ^_^

It sounds like a waste of development time...though It would be cool if they added some sort of housing like they did with Lord of the Rings..the only issues I see with is that every single races would have to have their own types of houses, their own furniture or accents since you know Orcs live in huts and shacks or just on the ground...Chaos where would one live in a Vat of evil?   Crypts?    

What would happen to your hosues when your capitol has been sieged and basically set on fire by the enemy? Do you get cut off from your home until they've been thrust out of the city?  I could see alot of people relay pissed off at not being able to go to their home...mostly the ones that don't understand the focus core of the game.  

Still cool ..and I dontthink they've ever said "no" to housing just 'no' to housing at Launch.

btw when are we getting a Dead Horse Icon? 

OP:

Just TRY to understand what type of game we're dealing with here!

At the highest they'd have guild houses.

Whoa, whoa, whoa...

Guild housing has been promised from the start though there has been no mention of it recently.

Probably they'll release without it but it is definitely going to be included at a later date... However it might still be in the works - there has been curiously little detail on guild benefits so far. We do know that there will be a bunch of guild levels and that they will carry some kind of benefits for the members. They've even come up with a fresh new TM term for it: "Living Guilds system" (TM)On the other hand the devs are pretty adamant in their protection of the solo/casuals so in order not to imbalance the game I suppose guild benefits will be pretty much cosmetic and that's where guild housing might come in, maybe even at release. They might be saving this for hype purposes just before the release - this last postponement is forcing their marketing team to spread new info pretty thin.

As for personal housing I suppose we can forget about it. The devs have repeatedly stated that it would go against the very philosophy of the game." This is WAR! Soldiers sleep in their regimental barracks and don't have the time to tend the roses or do interior decorating!".. or something along those lines...

Who needs a house when theirs so much WAAGHH!

I have a hard time picturing an orc that's into interior design. But maybe that's me

Housing would be cool, even instanced housing would keep me happy.

A place to stick weapons and trophies etc :)

how about in your hand (preferably in an opponents chest), and the trophies on your armor :)
