WAR has failed.

Sad to say it but it's true, just like Vanguard before it the 'Next Big Thing' has burned out not with a bang but with a whimper... and before the release date as well. Mythic have made the biggest mistake of their lives going with GOA - now 50% of their playerbase is completely disillusioned with them and a great game with a great franchise behind it, one that COULD have easily contested with WoW is the laughing stock of the industry.
IMO, WAR was the last hope against WoW, and it has completely failed. Looks like there will be no big changes in the MMO world any time soon.

It's only for Europe, not sure they ever gave a toss about us to begin with. This is why WAR will not compete.

I can't speak to any issues you may be having in Europe, but I can say that I am having a blast in WAR over here in the US and that the game itself is very fun and is certainly not on a par with Vanguard.
Good luck overseas though, hopefully they work out these GOA issues before the game launches . Keep in mind that you are still in a BETA and the issues you guys seem to be having (Key Validation etc) all seem to be related to GOA and fairly easy to fix over the next few days. It's not like a major game design issue that can't be fixed.
All time classic MY NEW FAVORITE POST! (Keep laying those bricks)

WAR is one of the best games that came out after WoW, and currently the only game that can compete with it. I dont know what ur smoking and i want to know where u get it because EVERY person who i talked to on test servers LOVED WAR, including my self. You are in this mystical illusion that if u don't like the game NO ONE ELSE DOES. You know what my friend u fail in life for that because if u go and look on Ebay the Collector edition pre-oders are going for over 200$ a pop (80 original store price).
WAR is great its no AOC, Mythic has made its name in making good game, if u dont like that game stay away from it and dont complain about it here, cause in my opinion its one of the best games since WoW (and WoW isnt that great eithr if u look at it closly)
Damn drama queens...
-Currently looking forward to FFXIV
-Currently playing EvE and Global Agenda
Tend to agree with Rollo. Broad sweeping claims of failure is ridiculus. The game will go through a lot of flack for there choices. The game itself is mostly fun though and it still have a considerable amount of subscribers in the USA. That being said, you could say WAR didnt live up to its potential.

I'm not talking about the actual software... you can have the best game ever but if noone can run it properly then what's the point. I'm talking about the incompetant fools hosting the game in europe who don't have a chance in hell of matching the professionalism of Blizzard.
No joke, i get sick of reading all this FAIL bs, games not even out of beta yet and its already failed according to half the people, its like that in every damn game, i try not to even read many posts here anymore because of the pointless negativity just so somebody can hear their head rattle spamming off a buncha useless blather. Pass or Fail, nobody here knows until that day comes and you cant have an end when the damn beginning hasnt even came yet lol.
Well, people who want to play on EU servers are kinda screwed, sad but true.
If you think a game has failed because of a problem that was encountered in BETA, than something is wrong.
Yeah, GOA obviously messed up, but that has nothing to do with whether WAR is a great game or whether it will be a success or not.
I hope for future games they eliminate open beta completely becuase people think they are enititled to playing the beta and expect everything to be perfect and basically play the game for free. That's not the point of beta at all...it is not a free trial.
Yet another post where frustration eclipsed common sense. Regardless, heres hoping they get the GOA issues solved before launch. And keep in mind, claiming a game to be failed before launch is just
.

I cant speak for EU servers but me personally I DONT LAG at ALL on FULL test servers in the game...check ur computer. The only time i lag is right before server crack, otherwise i am satisfied with the connection. Perhaps try un-installing all that porn on ur computer, i hear it helps.
I thought I was a fanboi but the trash in this post is beyond funny.
You dont know if a games failed until the free 30 days runs out
But in terms of EU, people will go NA instead.

GOA has failed, not WAR.
It's not been released, and you are ranting because you can't play 2 weeks BEFORE launch...
You declare the game failed because a handful of open beta freaks from ONE continent are experiencing problems that don't have ANYTHING to do with the actual game...
I've been here for some time now, and I know these forums are full of trolls, but this is about the most pathetic, most off-the-wall post I have ever read. It's stupidity in its essence, a thrown-up half digested pile of emotional garbage you swallowed while sitting in front of your PC like a fat kid that doesn't get its cheese-tacos...
wait... no, I still don't believe it....
some more please (and I don't do flameposts normally)

Aion....
Before the storm....
Well it's still better wait till release is here maybe they'll pull it through and WAR will live in GOA's hands just as well as in the US, doubtful but there's always some hope..... they aren't Failcom afterall.
Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz.
Love how our europian brethren cry foul when an American product turns out to be slightly problematic when exported to europe.
WAR would fail if it failed on the home front, where it's main market is... North America.
Europe just has to be patient while the product goes through the export process, thats all. Like most other products on the market, be it movies or gadgets or games or whatnot.
Same goes for Europe products being exported to North America.. no doubt if Darkfall ever came out us north americans would have our own export issues to deal with, to give an example.
I laughed out loud. Once again leave it to someone in the MMORPG.com community to bemoan the abortion of another game before it is even born.

how can it have failed, when it isnt even released yet?
its beta, its stress testing.,,, and the registration servers didnt handle it,
Want to play: Lego Universe
so true
and after GOa have fixed this, peeps can get in and see how great the GAME are, this has nothing to do with the game itself, i dont belive a sec this will hard war in the longer run
man, those peeps who say it has failed either wow, aoc fans or just need to let it all out, its freaking beta lolz
IMO WOTC made a mistake by chosing such a comparitively small developer such as Mythic to develop a game for such a HUGE license. (Yes, 'Warhammer' is bigger than 'Warcraft' and thus should in theory sell loads more) And Mythic made a massive mistake by chosing such an incompetant company as GOA to host it for Europe.
Ah well, here's hoping KOTORO will dethrone WoW.
First off, what is GOA?
Secondly, I was a serious doubter of Warhammer Online till I got in the Open Beta. I am now gonna purchase it.
What made me change my mind you ask? Well, I was never into PvP or RvR type of gameplay until now. Warhammer has made it truly fun and engaging. I actually enjoy PvP in this game. There is no trash talking (that I could see). I am really looking forward to the release.
Who?
