Just what the title says what do you look foward to seeing!

Spears, which actually function like spears.

Very rare in mmorpgs.

Hylor · April 2006

woot one day closer lol!

What good would it be to play as an empire soldier and not have handgunners?

Bhazrak · April 2006

I expect they'll have all those and many more...

...Though, I'm still looking forward to seeing if they will design special looking weapons/armour for the magical ones from the books themselves, or just make up entirely new ones all together.

I voted other because I'm more looking forward to what Magic Items they use in this game. As far as Magic Items that I am looking forward to the most is the Carstein Ring. Of course I don't know if they'll have it or not since in Warhammer only Carstein Vampires can wear it. But if they include it, it'd be great to be able to either;...1) stand back up after you die (5th ed WFB) or even;....2) have a Ward save and Regeneration (6th ed WFB) Although I don't know what that might mean in game terms, but I think it would be cool to find out, even if I couldn't play a vampire, just having the ring could substitute for it. :P

Keep Mythic Away from the Dev's.......... ahh fook nvm ToA inc..

phosphoros · April 2006

Mythic ARE the Devs you dingleberry

checkthis500 · April 2006

I took it literally in the sense of visually see that I haven't seen, so I said armor, because I"m betting that the dark elf, high elf, and chaos armos is going to be a-freaking-mazing.

OnyxBMW · April 2006

I chose staff. Not because I doubt that staves will exist in this game (in fact I expect them to some degree) but that I would love to see staves that exist as melee weapons, not just as a spellcaster's trinket.

Seeing real spears would be cool too.

Accidental double-post.

Hylor · April 2006

I personlay cantwait for the rifles cause we all know what they look like but will they also have bayonnets (knifes on the end) or like jewel incrusted and will they be able to have spells on them that would rock to enchant it to have your reload time cut in half or damage doubled for ex.

z80paranoia · April 2006

pistols and rifels.

Wolfjunkie · April 2006

Everything.
From the common short sword, to the pair of duel-pistols, the hoch-land long rifle, full-plate armor, and the migthy 2h-warhammer.
Less magic items, more normal items, though. Heck, maybe even Gromril :P Tho' that would be fairly unfair to 'the evil' side, since dwarfs would never craft a full-plate armour fitable on an orc, in Gromril!

No, but the Chaos would have Chaos armor, and that would be comparable.

And although I still say I hope there are more Magic Items, I agree with you in the aspect that I hope they are more "endgame" type items, and that the bulk of the people running around will have normal types of items.

Although I wasn't saying I was looking forward to guns, mainly because, well, it's just a gun. However, the Hochland Long Rifle would be an item I would like to see very much. It'd be awesome to see a gun that is as long as a human is tall!!!

Hylor · April 2006

Guns Guns Guns everywhere now lets fight

-Akkarin- · April 2006

Well I voted armour becasue in WOW you stand out when you have good armour and you are unique. Where as in Guild Wars everyone wheres the same armour so you dont stand out so much (also you cant tell which are the powerful characters on Guild Wars)

Gota be able to dual wield two Choppas if your an Orc.

anduz · April 2006

What, no axes?

Boomsticks

Skod32 · April 2006

I'm looking forward to seeing if they get some spears/polearms that function differently from regular weapons and attack a little more differently than most games make them.

Varangarian · April 2006

There's just so much that i'm looking forward to. Chaos armor, guns, spears (that are spears). Halberds would be great as well.

One thing no one mentioned: mounts! There better be some, as they're the norm nowadays. Cool racial ones like in WoW would be awesome, except maybe some more variety. Like dark elves can get horses but at high level they can do some epic quest for a Cold One, that'd be awesome. Something equaly cool for the other races (Chaos with Juggernauhts of Khorn or Steeds of Slaanash). I know this could be hard for the good races (horses, more horses), but just makeing the regular "horse" graphic vs the epic "warhorse" graphic could spice it up. Maybe a customizeing screen and dare I suggest gear for your mount? Like barding with your guild emblem on it for human warhorses, and different head sets for their horse like a metal spike or something. In WoW you get 3 varieties + special damn near impossible mounts you can get. Lets have customizable options with color schemes and gear, now that woudl be awesome.

Hylor · April 2006

I cant wait to get 3 or 4 friends together to just volley those musketers around at enemys. And to ambush people with guns will add a hole new feeling of battle with the smoke and loud bangs will probly make whole groups get scared when you hear cannons and guns going off.

Kubar · April 2006

Daggers Daggers Daggers!!!!!

Really hope they do mounts justice in this game. There are so many possibilities. Make mounted combat an option, but not the only option. I'd still like to see attacking on foot as viable possibility. Another thing that will ruin the game is if everyone is running around on awesome, epic mounts by endgame. I.e. Every orc is riding a wyvern and every knight of the empire is perched on a gryphon (griffon??). A way around this is to make these ultra-mounts like battlefield only buffs. Before you go out onto a battlefield, you can spend points you have saved up throughout the many battles you've been in for temporary gear. One of the more expensive pieces of gear could be your race's ultra-mount, that you ride until it is killed or until you leave the battlefield. In tabletop battles, there would usually only be one char mounted on a monster per side, if that. Who wants to see a battlefield full of generals, we need foot soldiers too! (Although it would be cool to see a whole army of Wyvern riding orcs obliterate an army of High Elves on Unicorns, pansies.)

Other than that, every race has some sort of normal mount, cept for the dwarves, but the devs said you can get gyrocopters ( Lucky!). Orcs have boars, gobbos have wolves and squigs, high elves have fast elvish horses, Empire have more sturdy warhorses, dark elves have cold ones, chaos has those weird mutant things. Everyone is covered.

Spears need to be a big part of combat as well as shields and 2 handed weapons, just like tabletop. Spears should give the bearer an advantage against mounted opponents. :
