The things the developers said in their interview were so true. No one is gonna beat WoW in terms of numbers, so Mythic isn't trying to copy and paste their shit.
I have alot of faith in mythic, they have been doing Realm vs Realm for quite some time now. Darkness Falls:The Crusade was one of the greatest pvp game's I have ever played, althought it was text based it made it that much more thriving. After EA bought that out and threw it away, Mythic came out with DAoC, yet another RvR, I loved this game. Great pvp. After watching this video, all I can say is kick ass. Two thumbs up to mythic.
Looks quite interesting, although I was less inpressed with the combat shown afterwards.
I have got to ask though, was I the only person who got a sense of "I'm going to explain this very very slowly, and repeat myself often, because you guys are such idiots you couldn't possibly understand the first time"

Not wanting to start a War Vs WoW hi-jack.. but from that video the fighting seems much slower than WoW epic PvP battles.
In a game im looking for WoW speed but with more depth... will WAR deliver?
As a fan of WoW I think WAR has great potential, looks like WoW (in gfx style), has humor like WoW and does not take its self too seriously, add in the Deep PvP i wish WoW has and.. oh look $50 just fell out my pocket. I through with the lvl grind I want real PvP damn it.
One to watch but not to get too excited over just yet.

Here come the Warbois to tell you "omg wow copied war" lol.
I dunno....Is it just me, or does it look a bit cartoonish and slow moving?? Thx for the link
Not as lacking and cartoonish as WoW, just hope they dont mess up the PvP. It could b a pain at time thought when there are like 400 green skins and 50 dwarfs...... but w.e its about skill not numbers.

To be honest I kind of liked the speed of combat. It leaves more time for tactical thinking instead of simple intuitive button smashing. The one of my turn offs in WoW was that at higher levels a lvl 60 War could 1 hit kill a caster, and w/ charge ability it happened instantly.

It does seem slower but with colision detection I guess it will be. I was hoping combat would be more then just standing there pressing keybinds and more moving around trying to get behind the oppenent to do a special move or such.

Problem w/ positional moves you get people running in circles and jumping while spamming positional move buttons, I think there still be positional moves, we had them in DAoC, as well as WoW. I just hope implementation will be better, and yes colision detection is a very good idea if tanks circle a caster he is safe .

I havn't played DAoC in a while but I remember you couldn't move and attack at the same time in camelot. If this is the same way I wouldn't enjoy the combat and i'll just stick with WoW.

although it sounds interesting, one thing that bothers me...
this RvR is limited...for example if the dwarves and greenskins are fighting each other they cant go fight other racial enemies, and if they do they lose thier capitol...so its basically 2 races fighting each other , just in different lands....
i only played DAoC for like 2 weeks when it first came out, but if i can remember right, you can at least join together with the races that live in your area/continent and invade other continents with other races ( and not jsut 1 race vs 1 race) it seems more fun to me that way...i dont intend to fight greenskins for the entire time i lvl up...it'll just get boring....imo

If it is done right it will be better then DAoC, I only pray that it will be done right....
and to make dark elfs/high elfs =[
Oh shit that was just an ad.
DONT LISTEN TO ME!!!

This is gonna be a really good game.

Great thing about WAR is it aims at WOW's weak spot which is PVP :P Obviously WOW wont be beaten, theres alot of Warcraft fans out there.
more so than the graphics, i think they have really outdone themselves with the concepts.
I dunno....Is it just me, or does it look a bit cartoonish and slow moving?? Thx for the link
Being WH fan, I love it
I hope it will really have heavy persistent rpg elements too though, and not jus a bunch of "arena" type battles which start and end every 10 minutes.

The misconception that targeting another products weakpoints will bring you customers is one of the dumbest mistakes a company can make.
People like the other product because of its strengths. WAR Should target the strengths of WoW while bringing something to PVP.
Though, I know nothing.
