Faction Communication Barrier?

Was just wondering if this game blocks communication between the factions like wow does with horde and alliance. Anyone know yet?

Yes it does. The orcs were to busy trying to kill dwarves to learn their language and the same goes for all the other races.
Picture your self as a dwarf in a field hitting a rock trying to find the gold in it. The ground starts to rumble. You glance over your shoulder to see thousands of orc running over a hill - weapons drawn and waving them around franticly. They all start to scream something at you.. it doesn't matter what the hell they are saying you know what they are here to do.

Hi there,
I normally do not post much.... However I would like to voice my opinion.
I sure hope that Warhammer Online will not permit the chatting and understanding of the opposing forces.
I mean at some point someone will figure out (like in WoW) how to type certain things so that the opposing faction will understand it, but I do hope that this would take a significant amount of time for them to achieve.... Good vs. Evil.. kinda would be not as much fun if you could talk to each other. As for the previous poster... yes you got a good point there. Nobody should care what the other faction says when a group of them is charging you... haha.
I for myself can't wait to play that game. All the footage I have seen so far is excellent and I look forward to being invited into beta at some point.. *hopefully*...
Anyways, Thank you for listening !!!
Gets annoy when someone u killed log on his alt just to talk sh1t to u. No thx we dont want direct talk.
Mythic most likely will do the same thing they did in DAoC and have a message that someone speaks in a language you can't understand when you are near an enemy that says something in a chat channel you can hear. I'm hoping they do it this way at any rate.
The alt thing will be impossible for most people as it will require 2 accounts to have 2 characters on opposing sides of the war. So the alt thing will be very limited for the most part. With the removal of Buffbotting, there just isn't a whole ton of benefit to botting. You really need to play your character and fight to be your most effective. Healers that do nothing but heal will be far less effective than healers that build up morale and other attributes while fighting.
hey dude, you dont have to be so polite on these forums. lets face it, whos gonna read these posts? 11 year old kids who addicted to mmos to 44 year old males who work long hours and come home looking for a bit of fun with their friends beating the living shit out of dwarves and goblins over the internet. no royalty there.
nobody gives ten bells of shit if you dont have 9000 posts beside your name, its what you post that counts
They changed in Daoc to allow playing all 3 realms now. So we can only play one side in WAR?
you CAN play both sides.They changed in Daoc to allow playing all 3 realms now. So we can only play one side in WAR?
on 2 different servers. not on the same server.
"If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day, if you teach him how to fish, you feed him for a lifetime"
Perhaps more importantly, can you play every race on the same server? I remember when DAOC was first released you chose a side and you had to stick with it. Otherwise you had to join another server to play a different race or delete all your original characters.
Yes you won't be able to communicate and you will only be able to roll 1 faction on a server. So if you pick the Destruction faction you'll only be able to play and create alts on the Destruction side on the server you are on so choose wisely. You will not be able to re-roll the other side on your server of choice.
Games I've played/tried out:WAR, LOTRO, Tabula Rasa, AoC, EQ1, EQ2, WoW, Vangaurd, FFXI, D&DO, Lineage 2, Saga Of Ryzom, EvE Online, DAoC, Guild Wars,Star Wars Galaxies, Hell Gate London, Auto Assault, Grando Espada ( AKA SoTNW ), Archlord, CoV/H, Star Trek Online, APB, Champions Online, FFXIV, Rift Online, GW2.
Game(s) I Am Currently Playing:
GW2 (+LoL and BF3)
This only took effect once they clustered the servers because they can't delete characters without major backlash.They changed in Daoc to allow playing all 3 realms now. So we can only play one side in WAR?
If you had a character in say Midgard, but none in Albion or Hibernia on a specific cluster, you were not able to create a character in either opposing realms. You could only play multiple realms on the same cluster if you had existing characters before the merges.
Yes, you will only be able to play one side per sever.
