All whining summed up: " Why can't it be WOW?"

These crybabies who show up blubbering about chat are really getting on my nerves. What they are basically asking is, "why can't I be bored and spend all day endlessly chatting with other 12 year olds like in WOW?"
This sums up all whining. "It's not like WOW!" That's it folks. In a nutshell. These whiny nancy boys will add subterfuge and fog but we all know why they are crying rivers of tears; they want WOW.
No. No. You're not getting WOW. This is WAR...not "bored and chatting with 12 year olds."

I'm glad it's not WoW, personally I wanted something new to learn and discover. But people will always whine, just get over it.

True.
To be honest.. I knew about 3-4 people who logged into WOW just so they could chat with thier guildies.
Wow was one of thier chat clients.
they had AIM, Yahoo Messenger, Google Talk, ICQ, JABBER, MSN Messenger.... and...... WOW.
Sad but True.
Well not me, I despise WoW, I wanted something entirely different, and all I got is an RvR version of WoW.

That is whining in a nutshell nowadays.

STOP WHINING!
Same logic as "better not to have official forums because there are trolls". Silly logic. Better say "I will swallow everything Mithyc throws at me".
The problem is that too many try to PLAY WAR as WoW instead of ya know...
Playing WAR as WAR.
Always change your signature.
the problem is that too many people dont like a game for what its not, instead of liking a game for what it is.
no one said warhammer was going to be everything, what they did say is that it will be an RvR focused game, and they deliverd that very well.
Its not like people are complaining that the game is boring, that it lacks any content, that its a grind fest, or that it lacks any lore, or that its RvR sucks. To me those are major reasons why i like this game.
All the focus is on the fact that its not like wow but it is kinda......that the game lacks a chatroom feeling....that a new game has a few bugs....that theres a lack of RvR players on the low pop servers....
so its not 100% perfict...the "holy grail" of mmo's
what it does accomplish is that it provides solid RvR in a market saturated with pve+pvp games. You get 4 diffrent ways to level a character instead of one pve based path. You get the ability to jump right into the type of action usualy reserved for end game only characters, right off the bat. You also get solid lore, lots of content, and a gameplay style that hasent been done since DAoC (team based RvR rather than solo pvp or RvR focused on 1vs1 pvping)
So whatever, ill take warhammer for what its worth, a fun game.
The game is exactly the same as wow right now. Mythic really screwed up. 90% of the population does scenarios over and over JUST like in world of warcraft. So, at the current state of the game, war = wow.
What game are you playing, because if you can compare wow with war you definitly are not playing warhammer.
that argument stood up right when beta started, when no one had played past level 5, but it just doesnt float anymore. Too many people have played war to know it is nothing like wow, for better or worse.
not even wow's new expansion bring the gameplay close to wars.
wow= pve grind then gear grind, then raids and pvp
war = Team based RvR+PVE then sieges
diffrence is that warhammer is an RvR game from the START wow is a raid/pvp game at the end...huge gameplay diffrence, also wow is more like solo killing sprees while warhammer has no standout "good classes" for pvp, unlike wow.
sorry old argument, long sice has been proven wrong 100%
No most whinning about this game is simply why doesnt this game suck less.
Want it or not it an mmo role playing game not cs or cod... means if ppl in war dont talk eachother its just a bad shoot em up . Unless ofc as war funboys lied about the teamwork needed for pvp and pve.
Seems u r also quite anti-social person
and btw in wow after 3.5 y of playing there 60-70% of ppl i talk ^^ are 24+ y old .
Actually a lot people are complaining about those exact things.
wait.. let me get this straight.. because alot of people are enjoining scenarios and doing them over and over. it makes the game just like World of Warcraft?
I would like you to explain how you came to that. I mean.. play style, pace, graphics, skill trees, lore, leveling types.. stat blocks.. ALL different from wow.. but I wanted to know how you can ignore all that because scenarios are being done alot.

If the game isn't enjoyable to you just go back to what ever game you liked before, but please leave this game the way it is as this is the game I want to play...not WoW!!!
If WAR isn't WOW, then why do I feel like I'm playing WoW with a bit more focus on pvp and a quarter the content of everything else?
I like WAR and play it often, but I don't delude myself by thinking this game is superior to wow. If it wasn't for the pvp focus, it wouldn't be more then a cheap knockoff.
Because your playing it like wow and your choosing not to explore any of the content in the game....
its team based RvR not solo pve with solo pvp killing sprees for its endgame. I dont even see how you could compare the two....unless your jumping into scenarios/RvR alone and trying to rack up pvp kills....which is a recepie for getting steamrolled.
theres so much content in this game that youll never see it all unless you roll one of each race on each side and put RvR on the back burner.
and it has nothing to do with which game is superior, one game is a team based RvR game the other is a pve quest game....totally diffrent.
the question should be, which game type do you like more?
its sounding like your more comfortable with the wow style.
Because you're a logical and analytical person. Also, you're not an idiot.
You know, it's funny, a review could be:
"I don't like WAR, because it's too much like WoW. I hate WoW."
And the typical fanboi response would be something like:
"LOL go back to WoW!"
It appears to me that a majority of the negative reviews of this game recently are absent of the WoW comparison completely (because everyone already knows the two games are nearly identical in play), yet most of the responses from fanbois respond as above. It's like...Idiocracy is becoming a reality...not just a satire...
Well see the topic of this thread is "Why cant it be more like wow" so its in reference to peoples complaint that the game basically isnt wow. This has been a common complaint, not directly said, but implied by a lot of people who do like wow more than warhammer.
SO perhaps you should take that argument to the war vs aoc forum, or to any forum that is directly related to the "why cant it be more like wow" crowd.
misread topics much?
I dunno, my complaint is why can't it be more like DAOC? (because its a very distant cousin)

Actually, the reason the thread exists is because immature fanbois say every complaint of the game has to do with it not being WoW. My point was that, in fact, that bullshit is all in your heads. These negative reviews neither state nor imply any of that crap, it's just an excuse you guys use to make their reviews seem unimportant because they're just "WoWheads."

No, the topic of the thread is saying "all the whining" is from people that the OP thinks want the game to be more like WoW, but he created a straw man arguement and offers no evidence that "all the whining" people actually want it to be like WoW.
Maybe you should read it again.
