The cap city announcement doesn't phase me. I guess from the perspective of having the content from those cities available (unavailable) it's bad, but I rather like the idea of having people in a more confined setting to begin the game.
If they make the other capital cities 'unlockable' and available for future expansion (free), then I'm okay with their releases lagging behind a bit.
...
The announcement of the classes being cut... I'm a bit stung by that, actually. I was very much looking forward to playing 'Blackguard'.
Now, I think the 2 coolest classes left in the game are: Witch Hunter and maybe Swordmaster or White Lion. All 3 of those are Order.
But if I want to play Destruction? For personal preference in visual appeal... I'd play Dark Elf or Chaos.
My options are limited very quickly there, though.
If I want to play as a Dark Elf AND play as a male character... I have to play as a Disciple of Khaine? Sorry, I'd just rather not have to play as a female character. So, Dark Elf is pretty much a 'zero' option for me without Blackguard being there.
Chosen or Zealot would be my choices out of Chaos, and potentially out of all of Destruction.
...
I pre-ordered the Collector's Edition. I'm still wanting to give this game a very solid shot, but cutting classes and cap cities... it takes a bit of wind from the sails prior to launch, imho.
I know, it's all about focus and quality on the remaining classes/cities. I get that. I was just pretty excited about having some additional choices.
Can't get it to work consitantly and it causes nothing but headaches. Just look at YouTube and you'll see just how effective it isn't at stopping cheaters. In the end, just like copy protection, the only person it screws is the consumer. Cheaters will cheat, period.
Oh well, I guess I'll wait for the next big MMO to come along. Have fun (those that can stay connected).

That is the sorriest excuse I have ever seen. You have no clue what punkbuster is putting in the game to start with.
I suggest you grow up a bit and wait to see what they come up with first before whining.
DAoC really suffered from radar users, it was so bad we devoted one night a week to catching radar uses and reporting them. Hopefully this game will not suffer from the same problem.
Have they renamed Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning to Warhammer Online: Age of Conan 2 yet? So many similarities
Heh. trolling? the games not even out yet dude. I played AoC and quit. From what I can see this is nothing like it. Instead of releasing an unfinished game like AoC they are polishing warhammer to make sure they dont follow funcom's example.
If mythic had never said these class/race combos would be in the game none of this bitching would be happening. Thats what beta test is all about. Shit happens things change. 2 melee DPS, 2 tanks.. .so what?? ppl bitching like mad over this.. lol You can still play a tank u can still play a melee DPS..w/e QQ some more. Yea it sucks if you wanted to play one of those "looks".
20 playable classes? Not many other MMO's have this kind of variety.
You know that they will be good classes and balanced because after this move mythic would catch
no end of hell if they are not.
To visciousexe: if you tell me your gonna hit me with something 6 months from now I am gonna f** you up right now.. your whole post is worthless.
The 2 city idea sounds pretty logical to me and I'm kinda glad they took out choppa class lol, seems everyone was gonna play it. Now you get to pick different stuff woot
OMG this sucks. I can't believe Mythic released WAR and then took out 4 cities and 4 classes.... I mean... all those people already made their characters..... What's that? The game isn't released yet?
Then..... why.... er.... why is everyone crying?
I don't get it... you people complain when companies don't release enough info on their unfinished game, then when they have to take something out of said unfinished game that you knew about, you cry then too....
Here's an idea... If you can't handle changes in developing games... then don't follow them...
"There is as yet insufficient data for a meaningful answer."

You are definitely overlooking the fact that those 4 cities, and 4 classes were hyped to hell and back.
Having one capital city per side is just ridiculous....and it definitely does not fit into the lore.

Shut up you dripping fanboy. Every game I ever tried with Punkbuster has resulted in the same thing. Random disconnects, lag and problems. The cheaters get around Punkbuster. You can see all kinds of footage on YouTube. Punkbuster servers with people doing speed hacks and the like.
What is Punkbuster going to do to stop packet sniffers? Nothing. It can't detect it so programs like Odins Eye and the like will still be out there unless they do some pretty good packet encryption which causes lag and overhead. The bottom line is Punkbuster isn't the answer to cheaters anymore then Starforce is an answer to piracy.

Excuse me? You are the one running around making all kinds of absurd assumptions without one iota of knowledge of what you are talking about. You don't have one clue what kind of protection punkbuster will provide for Mythic.
You quite obviously don't know much about computers and programming, if there is a program in memory running it can be found and identified. Sure it is constant battle to keep up with the hackers, but it is doable. Blizzard has done a very good job in that regard.
Let's wait and see what Punkbuster provides before you go whining all over the forums with your silly assumptions. Mythic stated that if it caused any problems it would be removed.
Oh and trying to insult me just makes you look sillier and only gets a chuckle out of me.
IF PUNKBUSTER DOES NOT WORK MYTHIC WILL TAKE IT OUT OF THE GAME. PERIOD.
Mark said that, so if it's so terrible as some people here say, make sure you tell Mythic.

Yeah, it's crazy to think they would install Punkbuster when they said they will install Punkbuster. I'm CRAZY!!
You obviously don't understand how networking works because a packet sniffer doesn't have to run on the computer running the game. How is any program going to find a packet sniffer running on another machine? Please tell me because you obviously are so much more informed about it then I.
And I've been chuckling at you from the start. I love blind faith fanboys. They are so much fun.
IF PUNKBUSTER DOES NOT WORK MYTHIC WILL TAKE IT OUT OF THE GAME. PERIOD. Mark said that, so if it's so terrible as some people here say, make sure you tell Mythic.
The problem is Punkbuster doesn't think they have a problem. Plus it's a different beast dealing with an MMO then a FPS. All I know is I have never been able to get Punkbuster to work consistanly on any system. I've been through their reinstall and redownload dance so many times it stopped me from playing any Battlefield online. Which is a shame. "Does Not Work" is a little vague. If it doesn't work for everyone or some magic percentage? What happens for those it doesn't work for? Those are the questions that I'd like to see answered.
"Well its Mark, so if he thinks something is going to be released half-assed it most likely wont make it out. "
This the same Mark that released DAOC in the sad state it was in? I'll give it one thing, it didn't crash much...
But then, even SW:G released with more "content" than DAOC. Empty dungeons.... and if you happened to find a dungeon WITH monsters in it, the monsters didn't have loot! Exciting!
So, yeah, Mark has a great track record in regards to not releasing half finished stuff... he only releases completely unfinished stuff .
You are definitely overlooking the fact that those 4 cities, and 4 classes were hyped to hell and back. Having one capital city per side is just ridiculous....and it definitely does not fit into the lore.
Betatesters from betaleaks says they're all okay with 1 city... They said that 3 cities just split the players.
You don't even know what you're talking about (same for me).. so just wait and see
Not so bad they just axed half of the game content just that...
LOL u gotta love companies now adays... hey bad news we planned 6 cities but we will have only 2, and we planned 10 clases but we will have 6... Basicly our plans are bs...
Oh and i love the excuse about the delay HEH... and he says later i dont like to lie to players RIGHT
Why dont u tell us already u guys want to cash your juicy check already so your going to release half the game..
Hi all, I have to say frist off I was really looking forward to this title because I play the TTG, I am profoundly displeased that mythic has chosen to remove the class I wanted to play. I am let down by the Mythic team and for the last time, can't say I trust them to do things right if after all the extra time they have spent, I mean it's been delaid a year already. So unfortunately the game is a wash for me all you guys that want to still invest in this title good luck and have fun. I imagine there will be fun to be had.
I'm all for finding ways to kill cheaters,etc.. but jebus, this isn't the best idea. More often than not, that POS causes more issues than it corrects. PB enabled servers are always crashing or kicking people for no apparent reason in FPS games that use it. I can't see how this was supposed to be a feature for WAR.
Had to have been EA that came up with that retard idea. I always thought Mythic had some brains in the outfit.

Thought the extra cities were going to be added later? The 4 classes may be as well, once things get off the ground.
I can see the reasoning behind it. They have to priortize resources, and I'd rather see them release the best stuff they can at launch, and work on adding in the rest afterwards. It may suck if that was your favorite class or city, but it doesn't mean you won't see them at all.
I dont remember them saying they will re-release those 4 class that are cut. But you still have a few monhs now to decide whats your new class, just like me.
sounds like they wouldnt release the game on stated timeline, thats why they are cutting some of the fat. Lord Knows fat makes a steak taste better. After the shit Brad fed us with EQ 3 (vanguard) and then the epic failure that is AoC. All I see here is an excuse to not finish what they started and hurry and release the game on time. I hope thats not the case because i really could use something new and fun to play.
I was really looking forward to this game being Warhammer in a DAOC fashion with great realm vs realm, and you guys couldn't even get the realm vs realm right. So now we only get 2 capital cities instead of 6?! How are the servers going to handle thousands of players in each capital city and continual fights over these very large cities? They won't be able to handle the lag, nor will many of the playerbase have computers able to handle it. I mean at least give us some fortresses to fight over and claim in the game zones.
What happens when a guild of 200 all reach top level and start to continually raid the opposing capital city a few days after launch? Many player won't be able to do any quests in that Capital city. 6 capital cities would have alleviated this issue.
I figure EA told you guys to hold off on 4 classes to include in an expansion pack... we're not dumb enough to think you couldn't get them "right."
It feels like Mythic is really catering this game to the masses. Turning it into a clone of WoW in attempts to draw more players, while killing off the pvp aspect of realm vs realm, bottlenecking the players in 2 lag filled capital cities, and keeping content out of the game to release in future expansion packs. You guys really blew it, I was looking forward to an epic game, but I've decided to cancel my CEdition Pre-Order. Its not worth the price losing 4 cities and 4 classes and who knows what else after the game was already delayed a year.
of course they cater to the masses you dont want this game to be another conan do you? and another flaw in your arguement is saying it like a WoW clone.. i mean comeon.. a WoW clone.. oh you mean a successful game that performs well.. well damn.. these guys made DAOC have faith.

The cap city announcement doesn't phase me. I guess from the perspective of having the content from those cities available (unavailable) it's bad, but I rather like the idea of having people in a more confined setting to begin the game.
If they make the other capital cities 'unlockable' and available for future expansion (free), then I'm okay with their releases lagging behind a bit.
...
The announcement of the classes being cut... I'm a bit stung by that, actually. I was very much looking forward to playing 'Blackguard'.
Now, I think the 2 coolest classes left in the game are: Witch Hunter and maybe Swordmaster or White Lion. All 3 of those are Order.
But if I want to play Destruction? For personal preference in visual appeal... I'd play Dark Elf or Chaos.
My options are limited very quickly there, though.
If I want to play as a Dark Elf AND play as a male character... I have to play as a Disciple of Khaine? Sorry, I'd just rather not have to play as a female character. So, Dark Elf is pretty much a 'zero' option for me without Blackguard being there.
Chosen or Zealot would be my choices out of Chaos, and potentially out of all of Destruction.
...
I pre-ordered the Collector's Edition. I'm still wanting to give this game a very solid shot, but cutting classes and cap cities... it takes a bit of wind from the sails prior to launch, imho.
I know, it's all about focus and quality on the remaining classes/cities. I get that. I was just pretty excited about having some additional choices.
