This is most likely the WOW killer for me and I've been playing WOW since beta, with a 70 in every class. This game is a lot of fun for me and since I've started playing there has been no thought of loading up WOW again. Sure, this game has some issues and things to get use to but give it time and it will be even better. WOW came out with tons of problems and this one is running smooth for me right out of the box.
I stil dont see why Swordmaster is restricted or classes like that. Probably fully 3/4ths of the people playing this game doesnt know (or care) about this games lore. Its not called "LOREhammer". Who cares if a human could be a swordmaster? And seriously, how many ppl really want to play Testosteroned Challenged male Elves anyways? Why is it out of the question that a human would have travelled to Elfland and became a swordmaster? I was leveling a Bright Wizard, and when I hit level 8 I saw a Dwarf Engineer doing a PQ in Chapter 2, in the human zone. Now if THAT guy could travel half the world and get to a human zone, why in lore wouldnt he be allowed to train as a bright wizard? This elitist 'lore" stuff makes no sense. Its just a PvP game. This game isnt spose to be heavy on story, its more for the kill factor and achievements and battles.

no, it's not "just pvp game" it's mmoRPG - repeat after me: R P G And if you asking who cares I can tell you: Games Workshop who gave then license.
Good to talk with you on this warhammer issue. If your guild is anything like your personality and maturity on replies, your guild will give warhammer the GOOD name it should have.
I just tend to think based on the usual "fanboi' responses that are given here, that the reverse will happen long term and youll get two types: the elitists and the kiddies from WoW. ( no /facepalm added here.) or other /emote
I can tell Biz, that you and your guild will have much honor and fun. Good luck to you in game with Warhammer, friend!
Oh btw.. do you play on a RP server? you sure seem extremely knowledgeable about this lore...
this thread is seriously stupid the choices int he poll obviously suggest the poll to be bias come on peeps at least make the thread seam legit and not so trollish
How could it be biased dolt? Either or questions. Very straight forward. Muh God!
That being said, the results of the poll should not suprise. One, most people who bought the game on this forum probably played the OB. So, if the OB didn't turn them off for whatever reason and they still bought it then of course they aren't unhappy with it in this short of time. Maybe run the poll a month or two from now to see a different result. Second, this is a poll of players on THIS site, most of which are young fanboys so the poll in no way represents a cross section of average mmo players.
Yea I dont regret my buy but everything I saw from the warhammer open beta video is misleading a lot..
I Don't regret it because I try to not regret anything I do, but damn I got this game for the rvr and it happened once... ONCE.. I am always searching for pvp and almost never find it. The only tier with some pvp is the empire/chaos tier and there is a big lapse of time between them.
So the only option for pvp avid player like me is to go for the full server. Here is the catch: I generally don't have time to queue before playing, waiting an hour before playing is even againt what i heard from the official warhammer podcast.
They clearly say in the "crafting" podcast that if you only have an hour to play, well you craft something that last an hour... lol that was a big joke... okay, I am pretty sure this will switch when everyone hit lvl forty since we will all be in the same tier, but I wanted to go there rvring..
(edit: not sure if I should leave the above line there, i'm in for some flame)
anyway i like warhammer pve... the pvp is nice but it just never (or almost) happen... on my med-med server. It's already the 3rd realm I try (no full) and I hope lots of players will come to my server.
If not I will just look at my character doing nothing. That also happen a lot, it's a habit I got from being bored to hell from wow.. doing nothing and stare at my toon.... meh.. I tried open server, order side to be the underdog and fight everyone but it was impossible to do the quest due to destruction player stoping us to do so (litterally).
I know it's still early to judge since a lot of peeps rolls alts and take their time. I guess I will wait and see for myself like I always do.
First game since eq1 that i actually have to get up and walk away from, or I would not accomplish anything rl wise at all otherwise. Hands down best game i have spent money on in a long time mmorpg or any other genre personally.
I think the slow leveling plus always something to do is just nice. I have actually had the time to learn how to play my character properly. As much as I am doing, I am still not leveling so fast that i am outleveling my ability to learn how to use the new abilities i have.
Did greenskin to chap 4, and now I have moved to Dark Elf and just up to Chap 4. Probably when i get that Chapter done with, I will move over to Chosen and do the same thing. It is just flat out fun. It has been way too long time since I got this much enjoyment out of an game.

I do have my moments . And no, I do not play the RP servers. I'd rather not roll on them and end up NOT RP'ing (due to limited playtime etc.). Servers I play on are in my sig (Im playing a lot with Asteroth at the moment).

You should start the same poll again in a couple of weeks when the overall "new" feeling has worn out.
