  • The game slows down by T3 (21-31) because quest XP doesn't scale well, even now. So you have to do a healthy mix of PVE and SC and over the last month, T1-T3 Open RVR and seiges are happening almost at all times (the RVR inf rewards are exceptional)…
  • Originally posted by popinjay   Originally posted by Amanautor   So VN boards are full of Daoc Vets and experienced beta testers who through tough love provide constructive critisism for the benefit of the game? While I am the casual gamer who…
  • Originally posted by Mirandel Very well written, just a couple of notes I would say that WAR contributed a few genuine innovations to the genre: Public quests - though the 3-step pattern in WAR is far too predictable, but the concept can be expan…
  • In other words, you've never played it past lvl 5. By the time I was level 22, I had died 100 times in PVE through misadventure, accident or via mobs/questing etc. Likewise, my death in RVR hit 100 by the time I was 15. In contrast to other games,…
  • Mythic has been very upfront what kind of game they were making. They said they were creating a game and not a world. In creating a game, were they successful? Certainly. It's when people go in expecting WAR to be something it just isn't that thin…
  • OP,   Try the newest Nvidia drivers. ver 178 i believe. Just released! Fixes performance for a whole range of issues
  • Please put these things into context. Headstart servers were capped at 500 per side to allow non headstart to also join those servers. The caps were raised. Read that letter from GOA again. They started off with a 500 cap and are raising it ever…
  • WAR has bmp mapping. They are just less liberal and more subtle with its use than some games who completely go overboard with it and bump map every damn thing to the point of unbelievability. LOTRO also uses bmp mapping in subtle ways, leadinigman…
  • To OP, Nice review and I'm pretty much going to start taking some time out from forums for a while as well. You'd swear the earth is ending tomorrow by forum reckoning. Starts to wear a bit think after a while. Only comment I have are 2: 1. So…

  • Originally posted by gorecki WAR has very little it one can use to evaluate it on its "own merits".  You can't legitimately review it without mentioning how deritvative it is! It brings almost nothing new to the table, and manages to make what it…
  • The OP doesn't make any solid arguements. For the uninformed they may think he is right. For those who actually play the game, it coulkdn't be further from the truth. Graphics- wise, it is a style of art you don't like. The quality of the art is v…
  • If you like your current game, you should continue to play it. Play what you are having fun in. That's why they are called "games". Not every game is for everyone. WAR is a different/new game. Try it if you WANT to but don't force yourself or you …
  • There's a lot of story and lore in WAR. Personally I found WAR to be very RPG-esque. Maybe the issue is you're leveling for the sake of leveling? Are you reading the quests? Reading your TOK?---because by lvl 17, it should already have a lot of in…
  • Sorry to see you didn't like the game. you sound pretty sad about it. Hope you find something you like soon. The only thing I'd like to comment on is RVR: How RVR plays out is how much effort you put into it. RVR isn't pvp. It's player created c…
  • Let me guess, you also didn't try talking either and are complainign about other people not talking. Maybe they just started and don't know what the heck they are doing?  You don't bother to chat when you're tryign to figure things out on your own. …
  • 1. Graphics: Are pretty good. Not top of the line but far from pixelated. you need a fairly powerful PC and graphics card for WAR but not as high end as most of the recent releases. You shouldn't be getting pixelated or bad graphics. Animations …
  • If the game isn't for you, it's fine. Not all games suit all tastes. However some of your reasons listed aren't being taken into context. 1. Community: The game officially starts today. What community would anyone expect from a non released game…
  • I think if you look at the classes and compare the abilities and skills available to them, then superficially they do appear to be the same classes. However, they all play quite differently. Witch Hunters tend to follow the tank charge and go he…
