This game is everything and more. It JUST launched so any polish still needed will be there in content updates but so far everything to me is polished besides a few things. (Such as crafting)
 
This game rocks, so I dunno what you guys are complaining about.

Genius f---ing insight. It couldn't be that people have different tastes? 

---

 
No matter HOW many times level-headed objective people make this statement, there will always be people that are so excited and swept up in their latest pet game, that they cannot SEE the truth in the statement you just made.
I have said this same thing, ALMOST word for word, probably 20 times in the past month on these boards.  Some people just cannot IMAGINE that anyone would have different taste than they do in games.  I, being a parent, personally blame it on parents not teaching their children that what is right for one person....is not NECESSARILY right for another.  It goes along with teaching your kids not to be judgmental and self-righteous, and teaching them that the path that is right for THEM, is not perhaps what is right for someone else.  Not everyone teaches their children to be true to themselves, but rather teaches them to be true to what many many others think, say, and believe, rather than teaching them critical thinking skills.  That is very sad, in my opinion.
I have to wonder how many of these people that don't "get this" were raised in a fundamentalist-type faith, and were taught that what they personally believe, is the ONLY thing that is right....and everyone else, by default, is wrong.  Oftentimes these same people believe something, whether it is about their faith, or even....yes....a game....because it is what they have been TOLD to believe.  Some (not all) of them, are like lemmings that will gleefully follow each other off of a cliff.  Others, truly love the game, yet cannot see that it doesn't mean EVERYONE must.
I have absolutely NO issues with anyone that thinks that Warhammer is the best game ever made.  It very well may BE....for THEM.  However, I do take offense when I'm told that it is the best game in the world and told that this is a statement of indisputable FACT.  THAT is nothing but a lie. 
I'm sure WAR is the best game in the world for SOME people, but for ME...it is not.  And while I honor your right to believe WHATEVER you want to believe....you do not have a right to dictate what MY beliefs are to be.
Now, I hate to have to compare games to something as life altering as world religions, but for gamers....they pretty well can be.  So, respectfully I have to say....
I am happy that you found your gaming salvation.  But quit trying to evangelize the world.  Just because it is "the best thing ever" to YOU, does not make it so for EVERYONE.  It also does not mean that those that disagree with your opinion are "idiots" or "morons" or any other derogatory word that you might choose to throw their direction.  I certainly do not think that anyone that loves the game is an idiot.  Maybe they just have very different likes and dislikes than I do.  No big deal.

nice threat i must add something maybe i have wrong... but if people could stop making post with caplock or even saying this is the ultimate game ever, or this is the ultimate worse game ever ... if the communoty could stop saying this .. that could stop those who are always trying to put their taugh and trying to have their ultimate answer behing the real one... and that could shut down a lot of unescesserly post.

Well one thing I love to when I start a game its to start with a friend or to start a real coop mode online with unknown person, The OP is right, the actuall communoty isnt playing in group they waiting to be maximun level to start to thaught about talking to other player or even grouping with them for some raid...

There always something to do at low lvl in group, ill explain myself: ... its better to start and have good memory form lvl 1 with unknown person or some friends by grouping with them until the end of the game, you develop your personal side, you put some funny story or angry one without reveling your real personalty and that making the game alive.
I HATE TO SE something like a starting zone when the game just lunched and behing alone and trying to group with person and they keep fighting alone without even taking consideration grouping or my invit and their a lot of advantage by doing group from the begining and at all level to, you could take advantage of the ability from other classes in the game this is an exemple...

other emxeple :
All player who want to start healer classes are always in front of a wall at the begining they want to group and take full advantage of their ability and they cant because the tank can do everything by himself and dont wanna talk with the communoty " He want the peace to play alone and grinding is caracthere until he reach the miximun lvl and this at the maximun speed that he can".

Finally, there some game who what they did to resolve this problem easy they had removed or minimized the healear classe impact . This is not really a good answer to the problem by making a game with more soloing content, and making those "SOCIAL SOLO QUEST" this isnt not right thing to do, its only removing the oportunity to made a group by gaving more XP you ( social quest gave more because its something cool that they create ) and its requiring less work less socializing and making that one minded communoty.

I dont want to flame I took the exemple of Social Solo quest because War had started this and hope i wont see that idea behing apply to any futur mmo by the reason that could create one minded communoty that even thinking about soloing.

Took Guildwars was nice because from 1 to 20 you have to group.. exemple many person didnt like this game but its reached the top in 2005~­2007 in the best seller in online game for a f2p .

And who didnt play Diablo 2 at teh begining in coop mode that was really exciting moment for me.. when it time to play a MMO i dont want to bother myself with the social aspect because its suppose to be a game for this.. If i wanna play an game alone i will play MassEffect or Neverwinter2, or Diablo, titan qeust etc.. warcraft ...crysis. I wont come on a mmo without even sure to have fun with some comrade.

I have to say that I am one of the gamers that is very disappointed.
 
Art is subjective, but man, the game to me looks and feels like it was made for 8 year olds. I grew tired of it in 15 min much less can I imagine myself spending HOURS in this world. I understand that it's based on the Warhammer IP and this predates WOW by 20 years but I still don't like it. The art, in a word, sucks.
The movement is VERY clunky and annoying. It's terrible.
The character customization is a flat out JOKE. Not to mention the class choices left me unsatisfied. I found that there was not ONE SINGLE CLASS that I wanted to play.
The way the zones are set up is especially uninspiring. Not only are they smallish, but there is only a tiny portion of it set aside for RvR. I just don't like the design as it feels like an afterthought; and it was, according to the developers (originally they planned to have instanced "scenario" battles only).
Oh, and no player housing? No thanks.
In fact, I'm kinda pissed I bought into the hype. Paul Barnett is a great personality and he hyped this game to the max. But it's just not fun to play.
My 2 cents.

 

---

Bitter and clueless.

Coming from a current SWG subscriber too, no thanks I don't trust you to know anything about quality.

---

LOL there more fun in SWG than plaiyng WARHAMMER and we take only the gameplay side lol !

HAHAHA, OMG WTF NO PLAYER HOUSING?! Why on earth would anyone want to play a game that doesn't allow you to fill a house with the most retarded pieces of furniture you can find? Who the hell would even make a game that doesn't include the best aspect of online PvP games that is player housing?
 
On a lighter note, go back to AoC you fanboi.. leave the game to the real players. Better yet. Try Habbo Hotel.. make all the housing you want. Your a joke.

---

BLOCKED Him for behind retarded.

WEll im with you ! There nothing that surprise me in all the futur game that coming and those who are actually online, without one maybe but still not perfect.
(and its not WANNABIEWAR )

---

I actually think that Godager probably played WAR beta and realised, at that point, just how much of a disaster his own game was and is compared with the competition.

---

kill him lol if AoC its a disaster at lunch than warhammer its pretty pretty over hyped

to bad thise type of game was out many year before on console. This kind of system liek entering stuff before and that gonna gave you in futur ACTION mmorpg like god of war :D so this is one step on this direction and this is really brillant !

This is incorrect actually, what they have done is added a 5% sales tax that goes to the trader instead of the player. For example I listed an item on the AH for 1 silver today, the tax was 5 copper. So whoever purchases will have to pay 1 silver, 5 copper for the item. 5% is nothing, as far as I can recall they do this in all popular MMORPG's for example: WOW, LOTRO, EQ2, just off the top of my head. So start flaming all those companies to if your going to flame funcom... On another note, God Im getting tired of the extremely negative bias for this game. Im no fanboy but this is a good game none the less and I'd bet money the majority of you people who are bashing it arent even playing it... Lastly. Please take your hatemongering elsewhere.[/b][/quote]

tumb up your right patch of 17 septembre is pretty pretty nice, those who say this arent able to see the rought dark stone become a nice crystal because they not playing it.

And to further take on what Avery just said...How the hell is it misleading, look at the damn title "Quad Core Conan COMMING". Wow, some people don't think...

---

 
Maybe some people dont think, thats of course possible, though in this case thats not it.  What is IT, is the fact that most of what is printed on the AOC box from launch, remains to be added to the game 4 months later.  Who cares about Quad Core support when the game lacks content, lag free play, the ability to play for hours without crashing, the ability to keep groups together, a world where the zone arent instanced which makes forming groups maddening! I mean what about DX10? ? ? It was promised on the box.

---

Well everyone wanted the game SOON AS POSSIBLE ! there you have ... You dont even think about futur do you prefer a game that gonna be fixed and become the most intereting game from this year. Or put your hope on WoW WOTLK &?????

---
War isnt a game of this century that should be out since 2000 and its as been retarded for nothing its dosent past out the criteria of WoW. So I dont put it in the comparaison. WOTLK its more hyped for many players!

tuesday it theupdate aftert his it gonna left the big update with new content and dx10 :D

certainly, maybe gonna be christmas gift !

There is nothing official yet on such a system but I think it's safe to say we are considering it. We do see the concerns in the community for needing it and that is something I have personally taken up with the dev-team in relation. If we receive any additional information on something like this then we will of course post it in the announcement section of the forums.

Let me first say AoC has set the benchmark in the MMO genre. Combat and graphics are so far ahead of its competitors, that it will take another 3 years for a another game to compare. AoC was fun from the start and  that carried through to level 80.
When funcom implement the PvP patch we will we have one hell of a game.
After playing WAR it was pretty bland and generic. Combat is slow and  painful at times. Animations seem missing and i was lagging alot in PvP encounters. Graphics are subpar for a game released in this day and age. Mythic, as consumers we deserve more than you can provide. So like numerous others i have cancelled my pre-order of WAR, it was a huge failure in my eyes.
 
P.S. AoC 4 life

What has changed since about 2 weeks into release? Which is when I set the game down.
Does armor work? Tempest of Set still OP? Ranger still one/two shotting people? Assassin still considered a horrible class? Levelling content all the way to cap as opposed to grinding a good portion of the levels?

" The following examples have been put together to give you a small glimpse of what can be expected with the next big update which should (pending testing of course) get to the live servers next week:"
Dated sept 1st.

All the information stated in that first link pertained to the all the test server patch notes I listed previous, which, might I add, have had a Sept 10th test server release date attached for quite a few weeks now -
