I highly recommend downloading rather then streaming if you want decent quality.

    War Shaman is nothing like WoW Shaman. One thing is that WoW Spells and talents don't have stupid names.

    All MMO's have grinds. If you don't like to Grind then MMO's are not for you.

    I think he means the game in general, which no one can deny has large similarities to WoW.

     

    Im not saying in gameplay, but in interface and layout of maps.

    because of the lore, but i know nother about WoW, could not even last playing that game for a month.





    very good commentry and a nice vid, also it should show people that even if destruction outnumber order on the server order side can still kick ass in scenarios.

     the last two mmo's that were promised to be good, look nothing like wow and they both sucked. im refering to conan and vanguard. LOTRO was ok, but is so boring after you reach 40, everything looks the same, you alway fight goblin, trolls or undead and everyone is human.

    Lets compare that to the new LK battleground found here:

     

    www.wegame.com/watch/Jayde_PvP_Video/

     

    What do guys think of the general combat, abilities, fluidness, skill level, BG design and finally graphics. From watching these 2 videos I know which one I would rather be playing, and it's not the WAR one.

    Well, that's your choice.. personally I think it looks like crap compared to WAR.

    Waiting for Fallen Earth, World of Darkness, Old Republic, FFXIV

    I'll have a go at comparing the 2.

     

    First thing to notice is that the BG/Scenarios are basically the same. You have a small group of players of oposing faction fighting against each other to accomplish the BG requirement. In this case in the WOW BG, the attacking force arrives at a beach on boats and need to fight their way up to the top of the beach with the help of some small siege tanks.

     

    The combat is much faster in WOW and there is a lot more movement and spells being used. This could be due to the fact that players have played WoW for longer and know the spells better. Players haven't had as much time to get used to WAR so this could be a reason why. The combat in WoW seems to be more diverse due to CC/counter CC. WAR combat seems to be all about dpsing a single target until it dies, there doesn't seem to be any interuption or much tactical gameplay happening.

     

    The Combat animations seem more fluid in WoW than WAR. In fact the whole combat seemed a lot more fluid, although this could be due to people not being able to run through eachother in WAR.

     

    The graphics seem to be a lot darker and grittier in WAR which is what they were aiming for. WoW seems more cartoonish, which is also what WoW is aiming for. Having said that the general art style is similar. The UI are pretty much identical, although there seems to be a lot more abilities that can be used being displayed in WoW.

     

    Both look fun to me, but the combat in WoW seems more engaging.

    Please stay at least roughly on topic. Thanks.

    I hate people who say the game is nothing like WOW because it clearly is and plays esactly the same. Even Paul B said it's 80% WOW and 20% their own.

    You're telling me, I'm not even sure what video they are talking about, and I made it.
