My WAR overview and why i am quitting...

It was a fun start, new animations, new enemies, new places to conquer...
I leveled to 40, gathered a warband and started keep sieges, its fun for the first 20-30 times then its SOOO boring, u spend 1 hr to knock down a door just to die inside because you are frozen and cant move because of lag, basicly this happens anywhere that has more than 30 ppl. Server lag gets horrible, both sides joke about it... quick all low lvls go help T4 castle so everyone crashes and doors reset at that time...
PQ: almost all PQ's are broken after chapter 17, either it resets or boss bugs or no chest appears. We did a 5 stage pq for 30 mins just to have a green loot bag appear, the loot system is terrible btw...
oh also the server imbalance...we have 5 desc players for every 1 order player. The best destruction defense is to just zerg into a zone and lag crash it against a well organized order warband. Mass PvP is a joke with the current servers... I played wow with max settings and never had a problem in alterac valley while 40-50 ppl were running around. I play this game with minimum settings and keep crashing all the time whenever lag spikes. So many ppl in my guild having same proble and many didnt renew subs.
so i am pretty much out until the beta ends... I will come back in 3 months to play the real thing. In the meantime I am not going to buy WOTLK, i will reinstall leisure suit larry maybe...

I really wanted to like this mmorpg
but i ended up quitting also
just feels too unfinished
I am not playing any other mmos either
tried them all
waiting for a good one
never tried leisure suit larry
might have to check it out
hopefully some good mmos will come out soon
I know we can count on Guild wars 2, but thats a ways off still
maybe darkfall will be cool
leisure suit larry is a fun game from the year 1998 or smthg like that... So its not in beta like WAR.
I just feel so disappointed in WAR, i made my whole guild in WOW quit just to get disappointed here again, i guess most of them are going to get WOTLK while the rest like me just quit MMO alltogether..
I feel ya
it proved to me that you cannot have any expectation, not even that it should obviously be on par with other popular mmos as far as quality etc.
warhammer online was hyped huge, many were looking forward to it
how is it that DAOC is a better game?
you would think it would at least be as good as DAOC right?
WARHAMMER setting held them back IMO. DAOC 2 would be better. Regardless, I love the game and as soon as the wowboys leave, I expect we will have about 5 or 6 servers populated with people who WANT to RVR.
Extremism in the defense of Liberty is no vice.
Because the majority of game designers can't figure out what's good and what the market wants but instead try to push off trash on us and call it gold.

I support this post.
I am dwindling out of push to play as well. I loved it at first, and defintely got my moneys worth, but I may have to put this down for a few months while they add to the game.
What killed this game for me was the carebare pvp, namely the scenarios.
On my server there are so many people who are just mindlessly doing scenarios over and over again that we cant ever get enough people to help take keeps. Its terrible when you can get into a scenario every 2 minutes but can't get 15 people organized to take a keep.
Not only that but on an open RVR server no one will do open RvR, mainly because they are too busy grinding scenarios.
Conclusion:
Scenarios ruined this game by taking away from the real RVR experience. This was obviously done as a ploy to try to keep the number of people in one RVR area down to prevent server crashing.
So many Quests bugged in 18-21 order wanna know why? because they had no freaky order beta testing these PQ's. Wanna know why? most beta testers wanted to be DESTRO so they got to fix a lot of the destro side pq's and order got screwed.

6 Servers???? with now many people??? your forgetting about the EVIl, VILE creature that Lurks behind Mythic .....EA...if you think EA will let Mythic keep ONLY 6 servers open so that you Fanbois can live out your Dreams in Warhammer then you my friend, don't know EA very well.....hell EA has it's own graveyards of Game Makers Tombstones in their backyard....EA would shut that $#@ down in minutes. EA has no time to be meddling with 6 servers with a handful of people....you guys don't get it do you...EA wants what WOW has 10 million Subscribers, anything less and this game is a failure to them......besides, EA doesn't care about Warhammer or Mythic, because EA and Bioware (unfortunately) will probably release the grandaddy of all MMO's with OLD Republic, so until then, yes Warhammer might still be going, but not strong, I forsee a bleak future for WAR, very bleak...
