Yeah I wasn't impressed early on in Tier1/2 when some Chosen clown rolled need on some Blue Black Orc only gear then tried to justify it with 'if they allow you to need on it, I'm going to click Need!'

/chat channels are overrated, find a good focused guild that's organized on what YOU want to accomplish in the game and get in there. There's plenty of guild chat going on in these guilds. Not having /1  blaring with 'OMFG Chuck Norris!' jokes 24/7 is very refreshing.

Depending on your server I see 100+ battles every other night depending on when the 'big guilds' decide to move on keeps, this is just going to get bigger and bigger as everyone levels and joins the 'logjam' at Rank 40 when they're all in Tier 4.

It's a pretty common rule with MMOs, you will find grouping easier and engage in more PvP on a higher Pop server. Not really sure what the issue here is, does someone really have to spell it out for those who haven't played enough MMOs?

And yes, powerleveling is pointless in this game thankfully. Enjoy the ride and don't worry about the fact that you don't reach Rank 40 in a week. This isn't a single player game where you brag to your friends about how quickly you 'beat' a game.

I went into this game looking for a solid guild focuses on RvR and group scenarios/PQs etc. A group of people who were willing to stick together and really push forward to see what the game had to offer. I found these people and I'm having a blast, of coarse I'm renewing.

Those who are still on the fence need to find a guild and stop being so passive about Open RvR, guilds are out there right now every night taking keeps for hours on end. Get in those guilds, this game is not a soloers paradise like other games. Unless you're well connected(talk to allot of guild leaders) you're not going to know where they're hitting until it's all over so you can 'hitch a ride'.

Brand new game, new computer. Not a bad theory.

I always laugh at people who try to play a brand new game with a 8 year old computer and then come here or the WAR forums and complain because they can't run the game off their PDA like WoW.

That been said I haven't had any performance problems running WAR off my 2 year old rig aside from the random D/C(known bug).

They best eliminate Gold spamming in chat channels or that's going to be the majority of the action in those channels.

Do NOT allow item linking in chat channels either or Mr. Fxjadfadgjjj will spam every Blue armor piece in the game all day and night.

People complaining about scenarios need to get in a guild focused on RvR 1st and scenarios/PQs second. These battles happen all the time but in order to start one you have to be proactive and not passive like 80% of most random players.

Find a RvR focused guild with a solid number of members and have fun or stay and sit on the sidelines, you choice.

Those of you wanting more Scenarios because of lack of Open RvR need to remember two things.

It isn't hard to realize that the true RvR battles will happen in Tier 4 once a vast majority of the server reaches 40, be patient.

Secondly why aren't you starting RvR? Are you guilded? What's the problem? If you're the type to just join in and not start/organize a Warband to take a keep then you're part of the problem.

I feel sorry for servers that are full of passive people. I'm in a decent sized guild on Ironfist Destruction side and the other night we did a planned keep right in Avelorn. Our warband wasn't full and left it open to PuGs and sent the word out via /1 in a couple areas.

We got the first keep door down with little problem with the exception of a couple boiling oil dumps(THAT BURNS!! ahhhh) heh. We reached the 2nd door and had about a dozen or so casters in addition to the oil so it took a bit longer.

The real party started once the final door was down and we headed up to the keep lord. Now our force consisted of a solid 24 person warband and there was another warband of simular size that was made up of random people. The Order on the other hand had stuffed atleast 3 full warbands in the Keep Lords room and proceeded to have fun with us.

Needless to say they rolled us all the way back to our Warcamp and that fight went on for hours. Basically it turned the whole zone into a war and we tried to shift our focus onto the southern keep while the PuGs and random types keep the 3 guild forces busy. That didn't work well either but it sure was a blast.

This is only a Tier 3 zone and the point of this is to say there's RvR out there but it doesn't happen when people sit back and just 'hope someone else does it'.

This simple little battle the other day only represents around 100 or so people in the zone, imagine when a majority of people are 30+ and the only place to go is Tier 4 Keep and objectives.

Give it a break. This ain't a 1v1 game in any way.

 

Incorrect. Despite many other people around you, at least 50% of the time I find one of them attacking me and the rest of my group doesnt give a shit.

The game is designed for RvR team fighting not 1vs1, if you're getting owned 1vs1 find better teammates/guildies. No one cares if a tank can't kill a healer or vice versa, do your job in PvP and help the team win.

First of all, your server sucks if there's no RvR going on. You can correct that problem anytime you want.

But most importantly everyone is trying to get into the upper tiers as soon as possible, Warhammer is truly a game where you don't need to max level quickly in order to have fun. But as with most games, the avid PvPers will get to 40 as soon as they can. Unfortunately this means less people running around causing trouble in the Tier 1-3 zones but when the log jam at 35+ hits you'll be having allot of fun.

Everything changes depending on what level range you're in, a tank however should not lose to Melee dps(except another tank). Don't bother beating on healers unless there's nothing else to do, against Caster dps you can do pretty well at the earlier levels when you get your snare removal.

Get yourself in a guild and do mass RvR, if you don't like PvPing in groups then WAR will not be a game for you.

Enough with this 'give me loot because I PvP'd' WoW mentallity, just because you killed someone or did a PQ doesn't justify you getting an immediate reward for that. This isn't WoW where you're guaranteed loot if you PvP for a week, if you can't handle that then WAR isn't the game for you.

If you're unguilded or in a small guild you will be missing out on the real fun of the game later on. Once most of the servers reach Rank 40 and everyone is in Tier 4 zones you will begin to see the real game unfold. You will learn to hate Guild X because their keep cannot be taken or never has. That is where WARs PvP is at, community based PvP that is not limited to a 10man scenario like other games.

Yep they did do a nice of job of inspiring hatred without the 'corpse camping' mechanic being added. I rolled a Black Orc and when you're constantly knockeddown or knocked back by Ironbreakers for a dozen levels you just want to stomp the hell out of those darn stunties. Everything gets peachy at Rank 18, AOE knockback ftw.

You've given the game what, 4 days and now you're going to quit?  If you are going to complain about the order to chaos ratio in WAR you just have to wait and everything will even out in about a week. A reason why everyone is picking chaos is because its the same reason why everyone picks Horde on WoW. It's just a perference to be on the 'bad' side or because the characters look more 'cool'. Just give the game some time and you will enjoy it.

 

On the main server I played order has lost far more players than it gained it went from med med pop to low high  pop at peck times and I can only see that ratio getting worse as alot of the order players telling me there rerolling dest.

Once a server population(that's online) reaches a certain cutoff that's when the queues start for the other side. You're simply not going to see 4:1 odds online at a time, if you can't drag your fellow Order types out to RvR then that's your(the servers) problem not the population imbalance.

I'am sorry to say I've just deleted war from my computer playing as order for me has just been a complete waste of time, I've  played on 5 different servers and it's been the same on every one order getting completely rolled in world RVR sadly if that continues the way it is it will kill the end game and ultimately the game itself, it's pretty sad because I over all like the game but sadly as it is at the moment I don't see this game haveing any long term lifespan.

I'll come back in a few months time to see if things have impoved so in the mentime have fun fun playing.

LOL

And you may want to consider that the problem may be you. Order has lost their Main City already? Quite impressive for the Destruction types to already be that dominant.

By the way which Server,Guild and Rank were you?

Most servers are just beginning to get a decent amount of people into the Tier 3 area for RvR, you'll have to wait a couple weeks and check back if you want to be sure of getting onto a Order dominated server and reap the benefits.

Warhammer Online Patch Notes 9/23

-Fixed a bug causing players to lose Morale during combat when no debuffs are applied.

-Yes in Tier 1 tanks still can't kill healers unless they're AFK.

-Order players will continue to claim l33t and truly 'skilled' status due to the fact that server wide there may be more Destruction players online. The phrases 'Destruction kiddies' and 'Destruction has no skill' becuase they outnumber us will also be frequently used.

-When using Boiling Oil during a keep siege, your character will grin as big as you are IRL.

Check Warhammer Alliance, they keep pretty much up to date on most things. Btw, for someone with such a low opinion of Mythic why are you paying them to play the game?

That is emotional.  Wanting a challenge is fundamentally emotional. 

 

I guess we disagree on the definition of emotional.

And sorry, but the rest of that post wasn't worth quoting. You make assumptions and cite them as fact.

There's not a lot of point in me having a discussion with someone that does that.

Enjoy your game; I know I shall :)

 

 

ince some assclown decided to not have official forums, it's rather a pain in the ass to try to see who all is where and how many guilds are on what faction in which server.

 

Warhammer Alliance has server forums along with many other forums.

For those people who think RvR is a bit slow and unorganized now, it is. People are leveling, looking for guilds and just doing other random crap along the way. Once a majority of the server is running around in Tier 3 zones you'll get a better idea of what is actually going to take place.

The Tier 3 Keeps will require more than just a random PuG to take assuming that keep has defenders. They're pretty darn huge with multiple Keep gates and a ton of ranged weapon placements.

Good thing there's no Arenas in Warhammer.

/endthread

In Tier 1 scenario as a Stunty Runepriest, if you are running for your life from a Black Orc then YOU are doing something wrong. Unless you're naked he won't be able to kill you and you should still be able to heal your teammates.

If you're losing every match I'd say find new teammates, Order has more snares than Destruction has snare breakers USE THEM.  If you're getting stomped you need to look around and say why aren't my Ironbreakers using their knockdown? Black Orcs don't get a knockdown until Rank 18....
