I'd rather have no chickens, war everywhere. Learn to run, hide, work together, call out enemies, help lower level players. These games seem like they're trying to be everything to everyone and I think that takes away something from the game. Be it challenge, honor, pride, whatever you'd like to call it. Learn to die with honor, not hiding behind a chicken. Will leveling up through PvP just end up run out in a fightfest blindly wailing away, get your kills get your kills. With everyone so concerned how killing lowbies is honorless, will blindly killing for PvP xp be any better? Wouldn't want to hurt anyone's feelings by making them do something they don't want to.
well say you have 3-4 hours to play finally, after working hard all week or whatever you do but at an awkward time... maybe really late and server's abit empty and you're looking forward to some lvling or whatever, and some childish high lvl fuckup (with massive fail irl) corpsecamps you and kills you non-stop until you just have to log coz there's nobody online to help you and those 3-4 hours of fun are just ruined. SOUNDS LIKE FUN TO ME!1!!11
"Learn to die with honor" that statement is such a huge fail it's not even funny... lets just start by asking where's the honor in attacking someone 10 lvls lower then you? Right...
Even in chicken mode you can fight it just debuffs you so you not eleetzor no more.

i think ganking is a good thing in a pvp oriented game. if i were in a army back then wouldnt u want to hit their training facilities? make it so the new recruits take longer to train or jus wipe them out completely? just my thoughts lo.l it doesnt bother me if i get ganked but maybe thats just me, or maybe the gaming universe is 2 carebear these days? *sigh* mmorpgs are going down hill
Are you Kidding???
This is Warhammer!! For any honest to Tzentch Chaos Warrior, engaging an inferior enemy is sacrilege!
what do you think we are? some sissy wimps that need to use such cowardly tactics?
If we would go as low as this it would mean we are not worthy of Tzeentch favor and we would deserve instant chaos spawn degeneration!
Forget military tactics or logic, this is WAR! if you cannot beat the enemy on the battlefield it means you are a wussy! And no self respecting norsca, sigmarite, orc or dwarf would ever be a wussy! cause his friends would make a favor to the world and kill him before he reach maturity!!
So, get your weapons, don your armor, reach the field and cry your best battle cry WAAAAAAAGHHHH!!! WAR may begins!
Yeah, you can probably forget about playing in character. This is WAR not WarHammer.
I think it's one of the best anti-griefing mechanics I've ever seen in a game The idea of 100+ high level players raiding lowbie zones as "war chickens" is probably one of the most entertaining thought imaginable. I can imagine Paul came up with this one all by himself. That's just awesome.
If they gave them more than 1 HP that would be really funny. Seeing chickens attacking people. (I would hate it too)
But they stated that the chicken would be 1-shotted by anyone, so I dont think you'll see many things like that happen. Maybe a few times. But meh, that would be the downside to it for me.
Better than the alternative of 100 debuffed lvl 40 looking players that can get one shotted just for being in the low tier pvp areas. People wouldn't kill them just so they could look at them.

Yeah, you can probably forget about playing in character. This is WAR not WarHammer.
But try harder and make it so you HAVE to play in character. Instead of such silly and artificial limitation make it so that if you do play as a Chaos Warrior in your warriors code is written that attacking weak opponents makes you fall out of grace with your gods and YOU get a debuff, exp loss or whatever, even making you flagged for PVP by your own race that would debuff you even more, not just a temporary debuff but one you need to work off.
I don't have anything against anti griefing mechanics, I just want them to make sense in the game world, instead of showing how you can program game code, show us how you actualy have the imagination to make us belive that that code is more than what it looks like.
If Chaos would have that kind of mechanics, other races would have their own, fitting to their lore.
funny this post is still here. yeah i just got my latest WAR newsletter. looks very good and im surte it will do well but yeah- it looks carebearish too me. safe zones, 12 vs 12 scenarios, blah this game is just nothing new. EVE is the last MMO im going to bother playin this genre is goin down the tubes on a rollercoaster to hell

I noticed one thing. Only those that attack someone who cant win are complaining. Odd huh.
I declare war on chickens. There, war is everywhere now.
