thisgame going to have wrap gate not like wow u walk and use pet to travel
this got a great story line
it have wonderful characters
nice pvp rvr pvr abc etc........
what does it have
Comments
one thing it doesn't have is nansy pansy almost at war but not quite factions -
WoW - horde v alliance (we're not really at open war, kinda good friends (AQ/Naxx/Outland [dark portal] team up) but we're not sure what the hell we are)
EQ2 - Q and Freeport (not really at war, we just don't like each other)
Guild Wars - Wait until the sequel to see factions
WAR is full on brutalness.. humans and orcs ARE NEVER going to shake hands, half the time the dwarfs hate humans too (if it wasn;t for sigmar the dwarfs wouldn't even glance twice at the kingdom of men)
brittonia and the dwarfs still have issues
If they do have a barrier it's because of "cheating." By cheating I mean say you are on X side, and you're giving Y side info on your X side. For me, I could care less if they have a barrier or not, but that is the only thing I can think of, but then again... this is war...
You want to hate the enemy Realm, not their Players.
Smack Talk does take the hatred to another, personal Level. It has nothing to do with competitive hatred anymore, it's just "Ohhh, that Jerk "Ipwnurmom" again....: "HEY F**KER YOUR MOM STINKS! BWAAHAHA""...
Sorry, I don't want my Chat Channel flooded with idiotic immature smack talk instead of general Status Reports and Tactics.
I'm even for not showing enemy Names. Just some "Dwarfen Ironbreaker" as Destruction Player is all you need.
You aren't supposed to chat with 'em, you are supposed to KILL 'EM!
(EDIT: In case it isn't clear yet: It is already Officially Stated that you won't be able to communicate with the Opposite Realm, apart from certain, Pre-Set Emotions)
And to the OP:
Warhammer will ONLY have Warpgates between Capitols. You will have Ground Travel mounts, as well as faster, aerial Travel methods between outposts. (Orcapults for Greenskins, for example)

Oh I beg to differ, it is alot more personal. When you constantly fight the same people in world area, it becomes very comptetive. It can also make the fight alot more passionate. If your worried about channels filling with smack talk I think thats kind of sad. For the most part unless your near them I don't think you will see what they are saying. Stop comparing everything to WoW. Back in Shadowbane smack talk wasn't huge but talking in general made alot of fights necessary and possible.
You just want to mindlessly kill chaos or order? Don't care who it is? Why play an MMO then? There are people playing this not NPCs. Sounds to me like you want to farm NPCs.
One more thing, if your typing tactics your going to have alot of trouble. I think this game will be Vent heavy.
I am still enjoying DAoC, although getting rather old after 5 years+...
but the emote system is all you have to communicate in game to the opposing factions. This imo is a much better way to prevent cross realming problems. Smack talk can be done on the games official forums.. or take it to their guild's forums. You still recognize names of players who fought well, or who you just straight out hate. The competition is still there even if you can't make someone /quit with some shyt talk.
I want fights to be passionate at default, because it's your REALM, your RACE you fight for!
I never compared WAR to WoW in my Post. But imagine this: 250vs250 People in a Capital City War. People dieing everywhere, people getting ganked and everything. Pure havoc. I don't want to read the 1800 Smack Talk Messages that are written near me then.
And you do know that post-WoW, the MMORPG COmmunity got Many MANY more baaaad, childish Members, don't you? Simply because WoW finally made MMORPGs mainstream.
I never played Shadowbane, and never heard of it in the first place O_o, but I guess it had less than 10 million subscribers simultaneously...
I don't want to "mindlessly kill order" (btw, the opposite of Order is Destruction in WAR, Chaos is only one of the three destruction races), I don't want to kill NPCs.
I want to feel like it's a War I'm participating in. A War is anonymus. You don't know the Names of your Enemy, you don't know their families, you don't know their traditions.
All you know is: There is some guy facing you, and he wants to beat the hell out of you.
I want to feel like a Soldier in the epic struggle to win the perpetual War. I don't want to feel like I'm a Hero who fights other Heroes.
I want a game, where...well hard to describe... where you don't even have time to smacktalk before or after the fights, because the next wave is just coming at you.
I want to slaughter the opposition for my Realm, an opposition that adapts to my tactics, experiments with new tactics I have to adapt to...only other players can create such an interesting opposition, but I don't have to know how their Characters are named.
And to the Tactic/Status Typing vs. Vent:
You'll probably be in Vent with your Guildmates. That's like...well I dunno, 20-50 Players. But in a Capital City Raid, with more than 200 players on each side, there'll fight Players alongside each other that are NOT connected through Vent. And if one Player sees another Guild starting to flank your Army, it wouldn't make too much sense to say that in vent. Instead, he just types it down in General Chat, so that everyone knows it.
Simple, eh?
Won't work when every 0.1 Second a new Smack Talk message pops up though :-/
WAR will deliver most of what I want in "my perfect Game", and since DAoC didn't feature enemy player names above their heads either, my hope's still up

You raise a good point about not knowing your enemys name in an all out war, I didn't really think of it that way. I think I used to get caught up in the politics in alot of pvp games. As for WoW with the whiney babys, I reference them because in most every other game I played the community has been so much more mature. I've never actually been annoyed by any other community like WoW. You occasionally have some little moron spouting stupid remarks but not like WoW. The Realm, Asheron's Call, Shadowbane, hell even Runescape has a less obnoxious community then WoW.
Plus I believe being able to communicate with the otherside will have cool reactions. Such as spys, false information, tactical confusion. It is more realistic (even in a fantasy game) to get some communication accross to the opposing faction.
I still think vent will play a heavy roll in even capital raids, with guilds there will be some major strategys you simply can't slap out in the middle of combat. But I do agree that having a city wide announcement for 200 players will be definetly used, but not sure if it will be heavily relied upon.
Even if there language isn't coherent isn't it possible we would still see it? Wouldn't that still flood chat channels? Just ignore it. I'm sure there will be so much you won't be able to keep up anyway.
And character naming should stay in place. It's quite possible that certain players will be notice above all others and targeted. If you don't want to think of it in terms of skill think of it in terms of rank. If you know Garuk10 is a wicked player, go beat his ass first before he beats yours. Hes a general take him down! I don't think the war trophies will be enough to differentiate between low skill players and high skill players.
You want to hate the enemy Realm, not their Players.

Don't need smack talk. I know today's generation of kids are all about the smack talk.
