Warhammer Online

on Tuesday, July, 15, 2008 4:52 AM
Hey guys, you may or may not know that there is a new MMORPG in the works called Warhammer online based on the fantasy table top game by Games Workshop. Anyway I've been accepted into the Beta test, and I just thought I would let you guys know because if some of you are thinking of joining the game, I could let you know what its like.

I know myself one of the bad things about MMORPGs is that you have to pay for them and you never know if its worth getting the game if its going to suck. I was like that with Age of Conan, I was a little reluctant in getting it and fortunetly I had to troubleshoot a guys computer at work which was having trouble playing Age of Conan so for a few days my job was playing that game LOL!

But if there is any of you interested in Warhammer please feel free to get in touch and ask anything, might as well take advantage from it if it was something your thinking of playing. I am also seeing if there is a way to invite ppl into the beta test, if there is I'll post it here as well.

So far the download server sucks! I maxed at 250kbps but now I am only hitting 50kbps good old dial up speed lol only 6GB left to download might be done by the time the game is released ROFLon line abortion pill misoprostol dose abortion medical abortion pill onlinewhere to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

Man, I am finally weaning myself from Lord Of The Rings online after being habitually addicted to that game for over a year.

MMORPG's are evil, I tells ya. They addict you like crack (not that I would know what being addicted to crack is like, but I am supposing it was like this) and are total time vacuums.

I hope you have fun with it, but I'm now officially on the MMORPG wagon. order abortion pill http://unclejohnsprojects.com/template/default.aspx?morning-after-pill-price where to buy abortion pill

Okay after playing Warhammer online for a while now I've decided to point out some of the good/bad points. Remember this is beta so we might get some changes as the game progresses.

Okay starting with the bad points.

Graphically this seems to be a polished World of Warcraft, with a few extra shaders and graphics. So much so I thought I was actually playing Warcraft. The characters are blocky as in warcraft and it doesnt have that smooth appearance which you get with games such as Age of Conan. For being a new MMO I was let down with the graphics engine, I don't accept the excuse "It is so more people have access to it" when games such as Eve online have different graphics engines one for laptops, low-mid spec desktops and high end gaming machines all of which are on the same servers.

Combat is nothing new here if you've played World of Warcraft you know what I mean. Auto attacks and you press the button that corrisponds to what special attack you want to do. This can get boring fast and often does, certain Chaos characters have mutations which allow for more damage giving combat a slightly different edge but nothing really new here.

So looks and combat just another Warcraft clone.

Quests are similar to warcraft with the kill this and collect that for no real reason other than the level 80 character you get it from cannot be bothered to do it him/herself. No markers on map you just have to follow directions that say "go east from the...." which doesnt help much if you dont know where the graveyard/farm/house which your directions start from is located.

Okay on to the good points.

Public Quests, okay something NEW to a MMO. Public quests usually take place in large areas were everyone contributes to the objective. The person who contributes the most gets influence points (I'll explain later). Everyone gets the rewards for the quest you dont share the exp or loot.

Relm v Relm, basically you can capture and hold NPC cities and territory winning experiance points and influence points.

Influence points, this is something new again. Influence points can get you better items at shops (like rare items). Better loot drops, and if you go into an area which is under attack from the opposite side, your influence can give a morale boost to other players raising there attack score.

So overall I wouldn't say Warhammer is a poor mmo but its nothing that we haven't seen before and when you look at the new style of combat and graphics that games such as Age of Conan produce with realistic graphics and a combat system which players have an actual active role, Warhammer is a dissapointment it could have been so much more but it decided to become a Warcraft clone with a little spin,

I'm waiting for long awaited Warhammer 40k Online. Apparently that's gonna be the one with Space Hulk like missions on alien derelicts and will allow you to play the Tyranids, which Dawn of War doesnt...

Apart from that Diablo III & Starcraft II are on my list of software to invest in. I still play Diablo II now!order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pill
