Med/Med server (Drakwald) during primetime hours and ZERO T3 scenarios are popping and absolutely no open RvR on my server. Destruction ranked up at normal pace as did Order but then the 2 largest Order guilds left the server. Once you hit T3 it becomes a pve only game. Not going to reroll on another at this point. Cancelled sub before free 30 days ran out and will come back in a few months maybe to check it out.
I found it oh so extremely boring. I bought it from Direct2Drive, played it for an hour and quit. My mistake was probably joining the dark realm first as opposed to good... it was just so dark, gloomy, boring, graphics were terrible. I just was so incredibly uninterested.
I've been playing MMORPG's since AC, and I have to say the graphics that Mythic decided to go with were pretty disappointing. I know they're trying to make low system requirement graphics like WoW, so that it would be more open to a wider range of computers/people, but I think it was a terrible move.
I have played AC, ACII, AO, SWG, COH, etc., etc... the list goes on, but I can't say I've ever been as disappointed as I have with any other game that I've paid $50 for. I just did not feel any attachment or sense of ownership/oneness with my toon. The animations were broken, often stiff. Graphics again, leave little to be desired. I just did not like it.
I'm not trying to bash the fanboi's or this game. I just simply could not get into it. Tried to get a refund lol... I know it's unrefundable, but I tried my luck anyhow. They wouldn't take it back. I told them I'd sell it to the Direct2Drive staff and their friends for $5.. they declined. I would sell it for more, but I would feel like I'm ripping them off.
I simply DO NOT understand the hype around this game, sorry. Although, I admittedly got sucked in by the snazzy cgi intro. Damn it.
I picked an Order server and a Destruction server.
On my Order server, Order loses 90% of its scenarios.
On my Destruction server, Destruction loses 90% of its scenarios.
While scenarios aren't the whole game, they certainly are popular, and a good means of advancement. I play games for enjoyment. Losing 90% of the time I play gives me no enjoyment. If I cancel (still on the fence) this will be the reason why: There's no system in place to balance play, to keep the game competitive. If one side starts to dominate odds are they'll continue dominating. I managed to pick the wrong side twice.
I have decided that I won't be subscribing at the end of my 30 days.. I know I've been defending it too, but two weeks has been enough time for me. I'm in the process of writing a fairly long review about my experiences that I'll probably post in a few days, but for now I'll just say that I have absolutely zero attachment to the game world, to my realm, to my character or to anything else in WAR, and I don't see that changing even after the game has matured, not unless they make a lot of design changes.
I know what you mean when you talk about attachment..
This game is an RvR game. You are soldier in a war. Your life is explendable.
I think one of the reasons you feel this way.. is.. The crowd. You don't feel like you quest.. so much as "quest" (sorry folks, but the quests aren't really quests. There chores). the items you get aren't unique, and you don't really have to work for them. You can get them again.. in.. a matter of days if you create a new character (getting him up to the correct level, Then running him around..)
I think if you found something that was unique to just your character.. it might be a bit different (oh.. and a sandbox would probably help as well)
Too many options, when there's really only one. I'm an emo quitter and am returning to McWoW. (ps. please come with me)
Have fun back in WoW.
That game, sadly, has set a state of games from the time it was released. It's a fun game, don't get my wrong, but the dangling carrot.. is a bit sad.
If WAR some how doesn't have a fun endgame (which I think it will).. I'll probably by wrath of the Lich king.. then quit after a month and check out AoC or VG.. see how things are kicking along.. before ultimately returning to Ac..

Whether people wanna believe it or not all mmo's are the same with a diffrent coat of paint. Its the extras that make some stand out. Hope you find a game that you can lose yourself in, I have found a few. Fortunatly WAR is another to add to the list.
I voted dissappointed in overall game, but I'm more dissappointed in the destruction vs. order imbalance, Why Mythic thought that most players would not run to the Destro side is beyond me, Destruction has all the baddies, that seem cool to most players, while order, ehhh...But it's not just player numbers on the destro, to compound the problem, order has inneffective tanks, while Destro has plenty running around chopping up little squishys, sorry Mythic, yes I bought the game, but I can just as easily sell my account for about 30.00, you have here, a slim potential customer. I can easily pay for this subscription for a year, but why should I? convince me.
I cancelled because the world is empty and I can't do any content besides scenarios and quests, I can't do pqs nor can I do open rvr
**GASP** The Mighty Bladin, defender of all that is Warhammer, has quit his beloved game???
Btw, I like how this thread, which is specifically about why people have quit, is filled with people saying they haven't quit. Priceless.
**GASP** Im surprised that you even bothered to reply just to insult someone. Oh well...I guess this is what to expect with gamers from W.....ahhh hell you can figgure out the rest.

switch servers Badlin because none of that is an issue on mine.
But yes this poll really isn't a good one since it doesn't give the option of still playing thus people can't do the poll and yeah that's just lame.
Exactly. I'm having a blast with this game. Not going to choose some stupid option just to see the results of this thing. OP - L2Poll.
