Where have you been? There's been a dedicated private server forum here for the past 5 years. And they've allowed EMU discussions since the shut down of SWG 8 years ago.

Since when are private servers an actual news? A bit of a dry spell?

With that said, how's RoR? I still have unfinished WAR business. Given, I mostly care about PvE and Warhammer side, I feel like PvP's nice only when there are no artificial skill variations(think Tekken or the like ; nothing like WAR's obscene RvR rank discrepancy).

Is it for any games?

"Players now only respawn in keeps if they are safe, no longer if outer door is already under attack."

Thats a signifigant change , As Defending Keeps will now have to alter there tactics some and help guard Posterns much better Inside and out, further to get help inside the Keep

It is the only forum topic I have been interested in for awile. I would say a dry spell. I did try this server out before and it ran very well. I might have to check it out again. I am just always worried about these things shutting down. .actually I think this server has been live longer?

Why so negative all the time? Take the time to read. Try something new. Lord knows, you may learn a thing or two.

Thank you for covering RoR.

I don't care when it shuts down as long as some good, memorable experiences are had. With that said, it's doubtful a PvP game will me give that without some outer drive. I just want a good, story rich Warhammer Fantasy game. There is some bloody good writing in WAR, mostly Epic Quests, it is often very memorable.

damn when i saw this i thought the actual game was back! oh well...

It's a dead game, EA even lets it stay up as long as they don't take donations. Either you're ignorant to this or you are hung up on something you have no business being angry about.

The game IS back, only now you don't have to pay for it. This is the Warhammer you remember, with some tweaks.

Slapshot1188 · July 2020

Been playing for about a month now and it's really good. Plenty of people on and lots of action.

Essentially it is back. I was dubious at first as well, but the game runs great and has a lot of people online pretty much all the time. Its awesome.

Time to return to da Choppa!

My friend and I have been duoing as Choppa and DoK. Fantastic pairing.

Gorwe · July 2020

It's too bad that WAR's PvE was always as overlooked as it was. There are some pretty nice, atmospheric quests. Orks using catapults to lob themselves, Chaos just murderraping their way through the Empire, Dark Elves...so depraved I can barely play them, "the lesser of two evils" EQ basically spanning TWO chapters(from Troll Country to Talabecland)...

...it's probably because you traditionally had to choose between PvE and PvP. Due to Purple Ranks etc. Stupid piece of game design(imo).

As someone whose friends don't touch anything that isn't WoW, CS Go or Path of Exile/Conan Exiles and IF they play an MMORPG tend to avoid playing healers like the plague, I am really jealous. At least you are minimizing the 'getting guard in one out of ten games' problem with those big brain tanks out there ;-)

Agreed, the lore and atmosphere were very well done.

We are running through the Public Quests now... some of them are very cool! One or two of them have been bugged, but over all I think it's really a well done server.

Yes, a LOT of people wouldn't even know about how cool, tragic, depraved etc some Quests are. Mostly because "WAR = PvP ; nub scrub!" kind of stupidity. It's a BIG shame and it is, imo, one of the big reasons why WAR died.

I'll have to have a run through the PvE. I know the limitations, but have they at least fixed the bug with "Quest Complete" text?

I don't know about this version, but in the original the game pretty much became unplayable for melee classes once the third tier started. The crowd control was so ridiculous it just wasn't much fun.

The free version is actually better than it was in the official version. These guys have even added their own PvE chapters and PvP scenarios.
