i think all their effort was spent in advertising, because the game play and design is lacking. melee combat is so slow and dull, spells look just as stupid as they did in daoc, and character models look like some of the repulsive artwork out of a f2p asian game.
you have to realize the majority of people playing war are the ex-wow crew, so obviously they are going to sound like morons when you try to talk to them.
anyone who is not legally blind can agree that lotro looks 1000% better than war, I don't know what ea/mythic were doing with all their delays, but it sure was not in the graphics department.
the animations in war are horrible, spell effects are worse than ultima online.
and anyone who says the character models in war are better than, not just lotro, but ANY game is obviously blind. the high elves and dark elves in war are absolutely freaking horrible, i've never seen such dumb looking characters.
granted, the models in lotro are not 100% what they should be, but geez, war's models are out of some crappy F2P asian game.

I'll take WARs new creative classes, fun and interesting RvR including; open RvR, scenarios, and all else that goes along with it. And call it even then!
creative classes? LOL. hold on, i had to stop laughing. rvr, that is such a joke. MMO pvp is for people who suck at FPS games.
mmo's will always be about PvE, and PvE is where warhammer fails, it fails at everything, but pve especially. it will fail at pvp too because pretty soon people will realize all the class imbalances, people will start to use speed and radar hacks like in daoc, people will start multi boxing and throwing the balance like every ignorant pvp system mmo's have thought up.
i don't know how many times i have said this, but no game will ever be good at pvp while there is a class, race, level, and gear based system in effect. sorry, it just won't happen.
<Mod edit>
the combat in war is boring, the casting in war is boring.. 2008 going on 2009 and the spells in ultima online look better? give me a break. the spells in VANGUARD look better, and they are REALLY bad.
people are just looking for something new and good, and war is the only thing new so they're going to protect it like a little baby lol. and there are A LOT of ugly babies out there.
are you surprised? daoc to this day is the most hack infested piece of garbage pvpfest you could ever play, btw in case you didn't know, was created by the same guys. i take that back, counter-strike is the most hack infested, but as far as mmo's go, daoc is the most hack infested.
if you expect to have a non-hacked fair fight within war, good luck.. i got some real cheap land I can sell you too.
What aspect of MMORPG's are you more into?
