WAR (Warhammer Online)

http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=12065276937&sid=1

NOT!  I thoroughly enjoyed all of the speculation this year that AoC and WAR might stand up to WoW, because I believed they wouldn't stand a chance.  Secretly, I was kind of rooting for the underdog, which is why I went out and bought WAR, cancelling my WoW account.  But now I'm back where I expected to be... cancelling WAR after a month and reactivating my WoW account.  I think Blizzard has just had too much time to polish their game and make a bunch of money to pump out new content that just keeps getting better and better.  Graphics aren't everything, especially in MMOs.  Hell, look at this game I used to enjoy back in the 90s and maybe you'll see why:

If WAR ever becomes better than WoW, I estimate it would take at least a year for the developers to polish WAR up enough to stand a chance.  Even then, they wouldn't have the financial resources and WoW would just be that far ahead of them again.

There was no speculation its was just dumb people trying to make crap to talk about. 10million people arn't just going to quit something they like in a matter or weeks. It will take years for WoW to die and it will be years of decline not just one all out BAM no one playing WoW. When EQ1 lost its title it wasnt overnite it took awhile and it was over a few years.

You must really crave approval from random people you've never met on the internet. I'm suprised your entire bio isn't in your signature so we are all "aware" of who you are and what your opinions are.

Do you have a trading card too, mr. important?

btw, if you couldn't see through the sarcasm, or can't read english I basically said "who cares?"

Blizzard made a monster.

I am a big fan of the RTS WC games. Hell i still play WC3.

As an mmo though I am in the minority of gamers that made the jump to WoW. It's a bit classless to hop on the forum for a game you don't enjoy simply to bash.

If you don't like the game thats great, tell your friends and family.

I wouldn't imagine anyone would care, its a gaming forum for !@#$s sake.

btw, if you couldn't see through the sarcasm, or can't read english I basically said "I'm a troll, thanks for feeding me!"

You serious? You're the troll coming from the WOW forums over here to stir the pot. I see you're a level 12 forum troll with 364 hitpoints and about 3 mana. Guess you haven't worked on your INT stat too much, have you?

You should stick to what you're good at, forum troll, and leave the thinking to the non-brutes.

Aw cmon!

Sure beats this stupid meeting I have to be dialed into.

Its not like the forums will ever change, they only get worse every year with all the youngsters and their fancy talk ;)

It has nothing to do with AoC or WaR or any other MMORPG but WoW's heyday is over. The new expansion brings nothing new. WoW will have the EXACT same gameplay next month as it did when it first launched. The MMORPG desperately needs a breath of fresh air. Too bad nothing on the horizon is promising that.
