Hi, this thread is for all the fanbois. At the end of the day fanbois, when your WAR uniform comes off, when the "I love WAR" banners are stoved away, what are the most annoying thing(s) you never really speak of, but which still piss you off at some level deep down in your little fanboihart.
Let me start:
1. I hate all the lag we get every time I stick my snoute into one of the RvR scenarios.
2. I hate my pets running off to never never land.
3. I hate to show up in my best armor, with weapons up to my eyeballs, but no Order are around to kill.
4. I hate that my character runs as if he got something stuck up his rear end.

and you just said how much fun you were having in the game on the thread i just started and called me a troll . make up your mind .lol
Ohh... I don't have to be a hater to post the comments above. I play and like the game somewhat, but putting all that aside I want to say what really annoys me. Fanbois it's time to come out of your little shrine and share your darkest secret thoughts on WARhammer. Whats the most annoying issues in your favorite game?
I'm not a fanboy.
I hate grinding PQ's alone. I would like to see some kind of list showing the number of players in each PQ. This way I could see which ones were nicely populated and go there and join in.
The PvP is fun and all (well at least the scenarios as nobody does open pvp except the wee hours of the morning to take keeps).... But my biggest disappointed in WAR is the terrible PvE and Crafting.... It's obvious they tacked it on at the last second and didn't put much thought into it...
I thought PvE was not that bad, even though it's clearly not a PvE game. can you elaborate a bit?

There's no story arc to follow in PvE, its just a linear trail you follow from chapter to chapter, theres no reason to even read the quest text, just grab it and go kill "x" amount of creatures or find some dead body or find some item and bring it back to the quest giver for xp and reward....
The problem is there's no big story arc to suck you into the Warhammer Universe... They should of created a story arc that went through all the chapters, maybe throw in some CG cinematics to get you more into the story.... and use some voice overs on the NPC's to make it feel less Zork like (Zork, an old text adventure game where you had to read everything)....
As it is theres no reason to even do quests as doing scenerios gives you better XP and renown points...
I hate scenarios, they have screwed this game out of all its potential.
Solution.. give Open world RVR much more exp and reknown, nerf Scenario exp and reknown.
So much to say. We could talk about cheap budgets (like the missing flying paths and lacking PVE), BUT as WAR was made as a PvP game ....
--------
The lame tactical PVP fights, with slow, laggy and unresponsive controls of the avatar.
If the RvR of WAR (without scenario's !!!) was combined with the fluid, fast and responsive controls of Wow on the tactical side, I would have loved this kind of RvR game.
But as it is: if you want to do a PvP based game at least have the best PvP fluid responsive controls on the tactical side.
RVR was already good in DAoC, but the tactical PvP animation and controls are far too slow and sometimes laggy to be considered a REAL person vs person skill based game.
Maybe after a few months....when the subs increase, then WAR will really begin to shine
.....but Please read my post title, I need reviews of other games also.
I dont know of any other games that have PQ's I can compare it to. The post title reads " What do you really hate about WAR". I believe I did answer that.
Waiting for the next thing
what i hate about war, is that it's so extremly mutch better than every outher game on the market.
i whas hopeing i whas done with playing mmo games forever now, but that may not work with sutch a badass game like this
Want to play: Lego Universe
All these reasons are why I didnt even bother wasting my time with WAR. The more I read the more I knew it wasnt gonna be what was said it would...
What i hate:
1)Lag
2)Stuttering
3)Boring PVE
4)Non-existence of crafting
5)No one doing PQ
6) Doing the same scenarious again and again, its like doing BGs....
7) Stupid chat system, should be tier base. World seems so quiet...
8) Boring as i only see my own race all the time
9) No choppa
10) etc....
RIP Orc Choppa
I thought PvE was not that bad, even though it's clearly not a PvE game. can you elaborate a bit?
How is this CLEARLY not a PvE game. To me it looks like both a PvE and PvP game. Its got some of the best PvE out there.
Scenarios. They take away from what WAR should be. Open RVR in a persistent world. I so long for the day when WAR's main focus is on open RVR, and all the carrots are dangled in that direction.
CRY !!!CRY!!wah wah ...go QQ in your baby bed...thats all people do is complain about everything....this game has only been out a month they are working hard to fix alot of issues i think they listen to the fans of the game better then any other MMO out there right now hell there bringing back two classes in Dec.
why must you QQ so much ...
1 get a better computer
2 they will fix that the game has been out a month ...quit crying
3 you should have joined a more populated server thats your own fault
4 ok ...go back and play your stupid blood elf ....and do you dumb dances ....
why must you QQ so much ...

I have much fun in WAR even here's the list :
The only thing I dislike about WAR right now is how they rolled out the servers. Giving us an exceptionally overwhelming amount of choices but nothing to back up why we needed all of them. Being he gameplay of WAR is almost totally dependante of the amount of people you have to work with, they should have done a sort of "funneling" for those coming in.
Example:
All new character created would have to select from a small series of questions, maybe 3 total questions that help to decide what ruleset and server they should join. Then a small list of servers, 3 or 4 tops would show up for them to select and choose from. If you have a specific server you want to join (say your joining an existing guild or joining up with friends) then have the option to see a full server list.
But at least if they did this they would have had a better chance of filling up servers and controlling population better than just giving everyone all of the choices ahead of time. This could have also helped them save resources and paying for servers not really being used. There are far to many Low/Low servers in WAR right now and it could have been alleviated if they did something like this.
Umm... This thread is about posting complaints. If you dont want to read about people complaining you should then stop reading threads about people complaining and then wasting space complaining about people complaining.
Total lack of an addicting gameplay qualities.
Horrible combat responsiveness, and animations. Leads to feeling like at times you have almost no control over your character.
Very anti-social chat system, mostly feels like a single player game. (chat wise)
Am I the only one seeing the irony in this post?
One quick question for you Zanzeer, what exactly do you think the Mythic is listening to that is giving them all these things to fix? Take your time and I think the answer will come to you, considering it is staring you in the face right now.
'Hate' is too strong a word, but here are my main complaints:
1. Logging on and not finding any RvR or PQ's to join in - only happened once so far, but it gave me a glimpse of the problems on low-pop servers, and it's something they need to fix in this game ASAP!
2. Long travel times - joined a PQ group once and couldn't even get there until the final boss fight. Need more quick-travel routes within the zones, will be good for RvR too.
3. Scenarios - being instanced, they don't feel like part of the main world (like WoW BG's), and although they can be fun (except when being rolled by a pre-made!) I would like to seem them de-emphasized and/or integrated into the world RvR better.
I like this game a lot, and if they can fix the population issues (balance, quantity), WAR will be insanely great. But it's not there yet.
