Confident, cocky, lazy, dead.

Welcome!

 

 

 

 

p.s. Nah, not yet I think. Would be nice to have them though; especially realm forums. Essential part of a server's community / social aspect imo.

DAOC never had official forums either, seems to be Mythics style.

 

The IGN boards see a lot of of Mythic employee posts though.

When you are in the game, hit the H key and VOILA! a magic screen pops up with a "FEEDBACK" section.  Thus, they can listen directly to their players without listening to the 3452 replies that come after someone posts something telling the person why they are an idiot.  *Ponders that for a moment*  Stupid Warhammer!  How dare they take away one of my favorite past times!  Luckily we still have these forums and Warhammeralliance.... and a few fansites that will keep the tradition alive. :)

For the record, their Devs are active within these forums and others.  So they do see the "feedback" that is posted and discussions that take place.  They do so without having to maintain and moderate a forums and have a staff dedicated to such.  Instead they are able to focus all of their attention to perfecting (or attempting to perfect) their games. :)

I have never seen them active in these forums, but will concede that they are probably here under normal accounts.

No, this was about the $$$$$ so now everyone has to search the web and dig around for anything that is relevant (but if its news how would they know what to search for?) but more likely they will rely on he-said-she-said BS.

 

The people involved directly with the game and game mechanics would never have been 'distracted' by official forums, but they might have been more informed.

Please stop trying to excuse this guys, even though every. last. one. of. you. attach at least one ":)" to your posts it doesn't make this smiles and giggles. It was just them being cheap, end of story.

edit: We could REALLY use some official forums right about now too. I am scrapping around trying to find people for obscure PQs, life would be easier if there were realm boards for exactly that kind of thing.

I wouldn't cry if they decided to start up some real offical forum.

Here we go again.  If you need to know anything about the game go Here.  They've been telling you to go to the War Herald for ages now.  After every pod cast and every video you've seen by them they always tell you at the end to go to either the herald or warhammer online website.

I'm actually glad they have no "official" forums.  I personally agree with their philosophy where if you have a problem or wish to give feedback it's all in the game for you to use.  Just go to the help screen by hitting the letter H and send your feed back.  It goes directly to where you want it to go without even leaving the game.  After all I'd think you were there to play the game and not sit on some forum bemoaning how gimp your throw axe skill is unless sitting on a board and complaining is actually what you like doing.... If I was Mythic, I'd go the same way because quite frankly listening to the horde of vapid mouth breathers is tiresome and without merit.
