Age of reckoning

Post by tim »

Since you have a wow thread stickied i thought i would at least mention this game.

Im a big warhammer(+/-40k) nerd and im really looking forward to this; im going to go a black orc (FINALLY TANKING VIABLE IN PVP FUCK YOU WOW)

The game is basically going to play like DAOC mixed with wow and a lot more emphasis on keeps and city seiges as well as numerous other RvR stuff. i'd go into more depth but id just be spitting out what i read on various websites so have some links instead

CGI movie: http://mythicmktg.fileburst.com/war/us/ ... ic_08.html

race/class descriptions (also main website for the game so loads of info here): http://www.warhammeronline.com/armiesofWAR/index.php

beta population summary and other shit: http://thegreenskin.com/2008/08/26/warh ... ening-out/

i've preordered it already 8)

I dont know what it is, but i can never get into MMO's. Diablo2 and such clones like dota suck me in all the time, but alas i just can't get into MMO's.



I must say, with all the war hammer fans there are, this game could thrive.

Well tanks were viable in PVP in Age of Conan also.

But anyway, I have a beta accout for WAR but the damn patch thingy just won't download anything so I cannot try out the beta. I will for sure buy the game and try it out when it gets out. Alas they cut down on a lot of stuff, 4 classes had to go, 4 major cities had to go. :( I don't know if their pvp concept will do with only 2 cities to wage war from and to.

theres going to be a lot more keeps to siege/guard and other stuff besides the main cities, which apparently take quite a big build up to assault. but yeah it does suck that they removed those classes, removing choppas made all the ork fans have to go black ork making it overpop.

apparently they removed them because they didnt think their mechanic was up to much, and are going to reintroduce them later.
