- I once watched some beta footage of a necromancer (?) that was fighting with some orcs versus some dwarfs. The pvp looked so darn nice.

- This game is highly interesting compared to others. Sure the graphics aren't special in any way but I know these guys know how to make an interesting game. Best games I've played never had the best graphics.

- People that only get their WAR info here on MMORPG are sadly mis/uninformed. Last time I checked, they didn't even update the the newest beta news. And comparisons are stupid. Stop it.

- I want to see some proper combat sequences instead of this scripted crap.. Lets see some beta footage!!

- i honestly don't see how anyone can consider DAOC's pvp superior to ANY mmo's pvp, it was a zergfest and only botters with high RR were worth anything, sorry, but mythics pvp team is horse shize
felatio(posted Sat Nov 24 2007)
- warhammer was created over 20 years ago so the warcraft franchise is the clone/ripoff. The game will also be based off of DAOC and that is the all time greatest RVR game. This will blow away wow's pvp even when you're lvl 1 but all the carebears may still like wow better cause raiding is so "hardcore" ....lol

- Going to reserve my opinions until after I've personally played the game... looking forward to it! :)

- If this looks like WOW than whos rip-off who? I played pen and paper RPGs in this city in the 80s. Its look right but it need shades and a bit of tuning. Graphic isn't WARs best point, if your after that Conan or GW2 will be your game but it have quite a lot interesting gameplay features. And the world of Warhamster is way better than warcrafts, every inch of it is mapped. And I guarantee theres no magical aliens...
Jester135(posted Fri Nov 16 2007)
- why does everyone compare every mmo that's coming to wow? What would be the point of making a new mmo if it's gonna be just like wow? Do these people have issues? Just go play WoW if you're waiting for another game just like it or go play lotr online
AmazingAvery(posted Thu Nov 15 2007)
- buildings look quite good, nice detail, combat still looks a little slow though.
Spitfyre1(posted Thu Nov 15 2007)
- Not even close to wow. Its a clone of DAOC....made by the same people. And DAOC has the best PVP in any mmo bar none.
Archin(posted Thu Nov 15 2007)
- You wanna know why people say It looks crap? they have either spent hours playing one game and put them selves into a state of denial so 'its ok ill keep playing this game' or they think 'its 2007 all games need to be DX10 now' all views are from narrow minded assholes who are better off staying away from WAR imo.
Archin(posted Thu Nov 15 2007)
- This looks amazing, did you see thjat lazy old Dog ? :D I really like the detail in the Tudor style buildings too. The game is going to be N1 of 2008.
Maedusa109(posted Wed Nov 14 2007)
- As I always say...if you think its crap don't play it. Games that were accused of looking like crap not only went on to sell well, some are, point of fact, still doing well and are still around.
Toufas(posted Wed Nov 14 2007)
- Rofl kids think that wow was the first rpg to use this combat system :P
vesavius(posted Wed Nov 14 2007)
- The problem is that everyone got their knickers in a twist based off one (admittedly) cool video at the start, which obviously had nothing to do with the actual game but inspired people to a massive extent. Now we have this... The truth. Like I say, makes Dungeon Runners look good lol.
butters88(posted Wed Nov 14 2007)
- I absolutely 100% do not understand how that looks like crap to some people... It looked great, and it even said 'Work in progress.'
MetaSeven(posted Wed Nov 14 2007)
- The Warhammer world was created in the 80ties and it features a »Holy Roman Empire« based medieval setting with some steampunk elements, green and massive orks, exaggerated proportions (armors, shoulders, weapons etc). Warcraft, in fact, was hugely inspired by that. Secondly, the gameplay of WOW is in the legacy of EverQuest (and it's predeccessors). The video looks okay, though it doesn't make me want to write home about it.
antoniuspius(posted Wed Nov 14 2007)
- It will fail!
Lobotomist(posted Wed Nov 14 2007)
- Is this NWN1 ? ... :) I mean seriously , this footage looks strangely similar to NWN1 (released 2002) city of Newerwinter ! Amazing
kerlon44(posted Wed Nov 14 2007)
- This game looks to be the best mmo to come out next year and from watching this video, it is clearly my most anticipated mmo!!
azador(posted Wed Nov 14 2007)
- It says "WORK IN PROGRESS" at the bottom because it's um, a work in progress. The game isn't due until march. It's November. It doesn't look amazing, nor am I defending it, but rather, pointing out the obvious. You actually can't bash a game that you haven't played yet. You sound like children making judgments over food that you haven't tasted.
Mortemia(posted Wed Nov 14 2007)
- Yeah, it really does look like crap "since it's in beta". You actually think they can do some major improvement to it before launch? I'd really like to see that. Bash bash.

- To all the Retards claiming WAR is a WoW clone. http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2006/04/10
nmaxlak(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- Does anyone want to point out Warcraft was based one Warhammer? Also this isn't a WoW clone, you only say that because WoW is a medieval, fantasy style game. If you don't like the game don't say 'Wow this game is going to suck' there are plenty of logical people who see that the game is going down a different path than WoW. And the city looks rather bland because they are in Beta guys, quite saying it looks like crap.
JoeJustJoe(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- It's giving you a small taste of what the city looks like, all these negative posts about WoW Clone...WTF are you talking about? I've played WoW since release (quit recently) with 3 lvl 70's (2 rogues and a mage) WoW does NOT deliver good PVP, Warhammer will dominate by taking WoW's PVP player's. It may look like WoW to an inexperienced gamer, but it has a much darker tone than WoW will ever have.
SaintViktor(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- A gameplay video with 10 seconds of gameplay ? Why even bother. I want WAR to be successful for the people that like it but everytime they show something it just makes me cringe in such a bad way. Do they even know what mmo gamers really like ?
gamegeek1(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- Obviously many of you don't know very much about WAR. First the combat is relatively like WoW from what I have heard and seen however it is in no way a WoW clone. If you are referring to the newest WoW expansion which has destructible buildings like WAR. WAR announced that it was going to have destructible buildings far before the new WoW expansion was announced, most of the common buildings look the same. To differentiate them from the important ones like the bright wizard collage(tall tower with fire) and the temple of Sigmar(domed building), that and the fact that the WAR team is going off of GWs explanation of that Altdorf should look like which is a very dark monotone medieval looking city. Some of the monotone however is the fact that in the video there is no shadowing which in a 3d game is what truly adds depth...

- Asa119, your logic is seriously flawed. You might want to think about your points before leaving worthless comments. Secondly, towns, cities, villages or any society structure, usually share some type of consistency in their architectural design. Sure, they're somewhat similar, but it's only to show some consistency. A town with none would look something like one who's inhabitants are anarchist clowns.
heroatheart(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- I thought it looked pretty cool. And I dont see how anyone can say the combat looked like WoW?! it only had a quick flash of characters casting stuff or swinging stuff. some people...
Gidion(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- Dunno i think it looked cool. And if im not mistaken it looked like they were showing some destructible buildings in that vid
Leucent(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- Oh btw nda safe comment i know for a fact it s good thats all i m saying
Leucent(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- WOW clone rofl get a grip
Lunar_Knight(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- I'm not a Warhammer guy, so I'm not sure if it's supposed to be like that but...that city looked really sterile. All the buildings looked exactly like each other with very little variation in architecture. And the combat and fighting does look a lot like "you know what game".
asa119(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- sorry, but this is 100% a WoW Clone. And WoW sucks, therefore WAR sucks
Shadin(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- And now I've Completly given up on this game.. Though I still hope others will enjyo it. ^^
Mortemia(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- Seriously, people are going to be disappointed.
ValUkr(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- this is going to be the biggest flop in the world
vesavius(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- boy, this game is starting to make Dungeon Runners look good!
gatheris(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- well, that was boring... what was the point
Violentsin(posted Tue Nov 13 2007)
- I just want the game to be done... I'm so sick of waiting. Looks great, can't wait.
