    Lol, nothing more to say, nice joke, really! :D

    A few of us decided to give the game another shot a couple months ago and had so much fun in tier 1 that we decided to resub.  Once we hit tier 2 we all quit.  Tier 1 and 4 have lots of action, but even the more populated servers are barren in tiers 2 and 3.

    So many great ideas, so badly mangled.

    WAR has some very fun gameplay, but the lack of achievement beyond a few scuffles sinks in over time, is the problem for this game as well as the mangling of lack of 3-factions, not full inclusion of a new race etc etc..

     lol dead!? I've played it for the last 3 months and it's anything but dead! RvR action almost constantly. City sieges pretty often, keep raids take up hours of a day! This game is far from dead if not more alive then ever!


     

    Typical hyperbole of the state of the game. It is barren

     It is far from barren. The game is much more active then it was in the past and the additions coming up will bring more back, I know of at least 10 people doing so.  On top of that it s funner then ever and really thats all that matters.

    Not a good idea.

    Instead add beastmen + Skaven to destruction and rename it to Chaos, then make greenskin a new side and add Lizardmen and Troll or something similar to it.

    It would be closer to the warhammer lore.

    But I agree, the game needs 3 factions.I also think that they should make a revamp and take away the level mechanics and instead use the original system from Warhammer fantasy RPG instead, kinda like an NGE but the other way around. That way they would actually get the Warhammer fans back to the game, but I guess it would cost to much money.

    Another idea is selling the game to Games Workshop, they can afford to actually fix it up and make it into the game it should be. Mythic is slowly dying together with the game and small patches wont fix that, not even when they add Skavens.

    Adding things like this isn't bad but it is too little too late.

    Yeah, it is really fun for the first 3 weeks or so. The problem is that few people continue play it after a month, T4 is boring.

    That is really where they should have put all the work into since launch.

    I think what I'm seeing here in the haters, is an unwillingness to be fully immersed in pvp. This isn't barren, but if your looking for a bunch of quests to do off by yourself then you need to move on my squimish brothers. Yep, zergs are there, but so are traps or ambushes. Baiting people. City sieges take place often. If yer not into pvp I can see why you wouldn't like it. But to say it's barren is admiting you haven't been in it lately. I've got high and low lvl toons on two servers, depending on what I feel like playing, and Never have to worry about finding some fun.

    i just ressub and still the same,still more bugs..t1 is fun but when you get t2 its frustrating to get to another tier,then t3 more frustrating..then when u hit t4 the fun starts again,but i dnt think you will reach that,coz by the time u get to t4 you quit already..sad because this game is good,and i hope they lower the subcription atleast $10..lol

    I really enjoyed the pvp in this game.  But the lack of people in T2 and T3 is what kept me from llving any more.  And the PvE is still very boring and not engaging.  I keep wanting to like this game for an extended period of time but i just can't seem to. 

    And for this asking for a 3rd faction I don't really see how that would revitalize the game.  Granted, I don't know any real lore behind anything Warhammer but wouldn't a 3rd group just split the groups even more and make the pvp pop less waiting for 3 groups to have enough to start a game?

    Heck, WoW still has bugs all over it, I really think MMO players have no idea what they expect of the games they play anymore.

    People can deal with bugs when a game releases as long as the game is fun.  When a game is buggy and is not fun, then people leave.

    One game was pulling in millions of players while the other was losing the million players that initially signed up.  Warhammer launch was a failure.  The horrible release of warhammer ruined mythic, lost most of its employees including the leadership and closed 90% of the games servers.  It wasn't just about the bugs in the game. 

     

    @OP

    Skaven sound really cool, but I'm still curious how it fits in the overall game.  It would be cool if they could only be played as some mercenary faction to even out numbers in battles or whatever, but I doubt the 2 faction system would make this work.

    They are going the right way, adding these adorable rats. I think more things will come for WAR.

    There is a 3d Faction: the haters.

    It is a question of fangs.
