this game is awesome, don't be too proud to give it a chance.

looks pretty bland to me. Stiff animations, horrible sound effects (why when mounts walk on different terrains its the same noise?) lonely world - where is everyone ?
Is this an NDA break? and why mythic have a limited level beta cap?
its only a limited level cap for open beta..they have been testing high level content for months..seeing is believing.
If you are in the RVR areas it is mostly occupied by players, and NPC's are only around the keeps and outposts.
Animations are not stiff. The game is excellently animated. The environments and sounds are expertly done. This is most likely an NDA break, but youtube doesn't really care about that.
The limited level cap is designed to keep more people in less areas. The open beta will be in place to test server stability, by forcing everyone into a smaller area Mythic will be able to tell if the servers will handle launch conditions.

You wouldn't understand
lol people just have freakishly unrealistic expectations for WaR.
Animations are tight try watching in high quality not to mention the fact its utube,you cant see the clothes moving and hairs moving,changing a sound effect for different terrain is not hard to do shouldnt be high on any developers to do list
Noone is there cause I pkd em all
because all games give a limited cap for open beta or trial programs. Because there's techincally no reason to give people complete access to the game for 1 week seeing as its supposed to be a 'taste' of the game. Because they really arent' doing anything new with their version of Open Beta. Oh and Because ever major system except for the City Siege is available for levels 1 - 20.
The whole point of OB is to get to try out the different systems & get a feel for the classes along with testing & stressing. You get all the different systems & classes so...whats the big whine here??
Bland compared to what? Environments look pretty awesome to me. This video definately trumps the notion that war's graphics are just a little better than wow's, they are actually quite superior.

Didn't Elder testing for T4 only began July 31st....? Google search told me that.

He whines because he is probably a fan of wow, i can see wow fans coming to these forums on release day and posting lies about the game. They don't want any other game to succeed. im looking forward to war but if a game comes out that is better i will play that instead. just wait till release day, you will have rabid wow fans hating big time.
It's from gamespot officially, so probally not a NDA break.

Not all....
Those who have something to hide, usually do though.
And honestly if you think those animation are grand, you really must only have played mmorpgs like EQ2 and VG, who also happens to have NPC's and players with the dynamic animations of a parkinson's aflicted person, not to mention the lack of "action" inbetween the abilities.
Maybe WAR gets to me in the end, who knows, i rather be surprised in a good way of how well the game turned out as i had low expectations to it. But then again i have (had) high expectations to other games, where they either met them quite well, or they fell down in the trash can shortly after birth.
Right now WAR got me a little, each time people praise the RvR....
Those videos do look better than what we have seen in the past though, but i'm not convinced, the animations just ain't my taste, had it just been more smooth and faster paced in animations, then i do probably already be pressing the preorder button.
Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz.

Seriously now, you're sold on a game by animations? Age of Conan should be right up your alley then.
I think you're just full of it, and grasping at straws.
WAR has a mix of some really nice environments and really ugly looking ones, I really wish'd they had the time to redo alot of the ugly ones because man they are UGLY. Also I hate the draw distance and viewing distance because this is 2008 and I want to see nice backgrounds instead of shades in the background like what WOW has. I also think the Animations are all over the place because some are really kool but there are also alot which just look plain back and unfinished like they're placeholders. The worst part though is the sound because you hear alot of the same voice overs again and again and there seems to be a real lack of good music and the sound effects are pretty poor.
So it's a real mix of good and bad but the bad really does stick out.

dont make your decision based on a youtube video..as i said seeing is believing, the animations are on a par with wow and maybe even a little bit better. there is a big difference between watching the game on youtube and playing it at home on your own pc.
