    Well I sent in my vote, I will probably end up being a Dwarf, but I'll have to see...

    Gezz I just took another look at the classes and find myself even more wondering of what I was going to do then before I looked. If I really had to pick right now I would prolly start with the bright wiz then move to either the squig Herder. I just realized that you will have a herd and not just one I find that interesting indeed.If I read that right.

     

    Oh and the engineer looks cool as heck too. I love tossing bombs around in games like these. I though grnades in SWG made it really feel like a battle was happening you know. I can only dream I will be able to set mortar rounds in an area then kite a nasty orc through it to watch him be pulverized by my plethora of detonations and grenades going off about him. to catch a piece of his ear to hang on my earlobe tree.

    yeah this game is one of the first to really get the feeling of a "badass dwarf"

    When I roll a "evil" side char....Chaos just looks nuts...but ill have to see if the other 2 DE classes are rly rly good.

    Don't be worryin about the dwarfs, me and my boys are worth 10 b-net kiddy Orc Choppa's a piece. Not to mention everyone knows in PvP games the dwarf players are always pro-gamer material while the Elves are still trying to mod flowers into their UI's. This aint your momma's EQ clone!

    Surprised to see chaos at 27%.. only 4 months ago chaos definitely wasn't the most popular.

    The numbers will change around more once open beta hits and the people waiting for the game get a taste of what feels most powerful. The people that buy the game off the shelf with no research will play what looks the coolest and in the end if the classes are balanced there will be a slight advantage to the Female Dark Elves as usual heh.

    I chose High Elves, however, I won't make a final decision until I see more information on all of the classes. Information on the High Elves is really skimpy. Either way, I will be playing Empire or High Elves if I choose to play Warhammer.

    Right now, none of the Order classes are that interesting. I prefer to wield a sword or a staff for one, and for two, I must look good and believe in that races cause. The only races that look aesthetically pleasing are the Humans, High Elves, and Dark Elves. I refuse to play Dark Elves, because than I ally myself with the ugly races. Ugliness makes me feel uneasy and not at home in a game.

    Witchhunters are the coolest looking class IMHO and I love their weapons of choice, however, I do not like their techniques of combat. I don't like positional attack fighters...especially when they rely on being undetected. That only leaves the Knight and the Fire Wizard guy. The Knight sounds okay until you see that his main role is in directing combat. Sounds a lot like Captains in LOTRO, which while I find somewhat entertaining, they are not exactly what I like to play. The Fire Wizard guy sounds cool, but too narrow in scope, plus I think they are ugly.

    High Elves look good and I like their cause, but there really isn't enough information. The mages sound cool until you hear they can heal. Any game that offers a mage that can do damage and heal ends up with a community that demands that the mage heal or not be grouped. While I don't mind helping out with the heals, I don't want to be relegated to a healing role when I want to blow stuff up. The Swordmaster sounds cool so far, but I prefer to use a shield and sword. If the Swordmaster has some magic abilities, it will be worth playing then, because I like Spellswords.

    So as you can see, I am still on the fence really. I am a huge fan of Mythic's DAoC and I love Mythic for that game, which in turn had me excited to play WAR. But I cannot play a game unless I can find a race/class combination that I like for starters. I've never been a follower of the Warhammer series, so maybe my problem is that I just don't like the Warhammer setting. Maybe Warhammer is just the type of game that offers undesirable race/class combinations for me. It wouldn't be the first game.

    Currently Playing: WAR
    Preferred Playstyle: Roleplay/adventurous, in a sandbox game.

    I actually am pretty happy about this decision. It shows they want to make it the best game possible and I like that.

    There's no doubt in my mind that I will be rolling Empire. The Empire's background and lore appeals to me quite a lot, with it's gritty and dark elements, as well as it's undercurrents of fanaticism and corruption.

    As for class, I'm definitely intrigued by the Witch Hunter, especially what has been described so far gameplay wise and aesthetically speaking. The class art has simply been amazing, as well as the few screenshots here and there and I must admit I've fallen in love with the background story .

    I doubt I'll ever roll anything else then Empire, simply because the other factions / races have done little to intrigue me the way Empire has.

    As a side note, I am very glad that they decided to postpone the launch to polish the game further, I'd rather wait longer then to have a half finished game and a "What could have been if more time would've been allocated before release" MMO on my comp.

    That's my 2 cents.

    I'm gonna have to wait to make a final decision on this one. Everytime they release a new profession, I go bonkers!

    At this point I cant decide!

  • TyfreakyTyfreaky Member Posts: 239

    My mind changes everytime they announce a new class or give more details about an older class like the Archmage...

    I honestly wont be able to make up my mind till everything is announced and the information about the classes are available,

    I would just keep changing my mind, a few weeks ago, I would have sworn an oath that i would be a Warpriest. now I am wishing on stars and throwing coins in fountains hoping for white tigers to be the next HE class.

    Wow from the newsletter getting a better look at the high elves was awesome. The WAR weapon design and shield design are top notch. and the new classes are just great.

  • TrikaorTrikaor Member Posts: 4

    I'm gonna stick with the tank types to start off eaither a dwarf for a knight then ill go from there.

  • terrantterrant Member Posts: 1,683

    So hard...to choose..

    On one hand there's Swordmaster..a tanking class that relies on skill and swordplay, not bulky armor.

    Or...or..Chaos Marauder...tentacles ftw!

    But what about Witch Hunter? THE HAT!!!
