Yet another record breaking performance by Blizzard to make tons of money of people to play a complete grind fest game,  gotta hand it to Blizzard, they hit the jackpot putting together a mindless playing game...

Shrug, I expect to see many posts like this. I guess My question to the OP is ..the game is the same as it was before, your only now unhappy about the grind?

OP... your post is a load of crap.  All MMO's are a grind fest.  I dont play WoW anymore... but its the best done MMO ever made... and this is coming from an old school EQ1/SWG veteran.

WoW offers solo questing, challenging 5 man dungeons for every level range, tons of endgame raiding with new stuff being released periodically, and decent PvP...   the only thing I think they really screwed up is ruining world PvP by creating PvP instances.

I'm not buying the expansion because its just more of the same... but for the 11 million people still paying to play its more content for them to enjoy.

warhammer is a grind aswell.  Infact, all mmorpgs are a grind in some fashion or another. 

If you dont like grinds, stick to FPS.

lol it's the life...I mean blizzard has been able to spot exactly what players wanted ( not all of them ofc) we cant argue about this

now if you do not like WoW , like me, I mean I totally dislike the leveling curve from 0 -70 ( 80 now ) if they could give me 1 char lvl 80 I would play for the PvP only, you can try other games

and PvP is what I like that's why I am playing WAR ( PvP  from 1 to 40 )

P.s.: do not compare WoW and WAR PvP...WoW is all about who have the biggest E-peen or pseudo e-skill if I want that kind of game I will play Counter-Strike or COD4 or any good FPS

No, far from it! He is trying to save the deluded 11 million of us that have been brainwashed by Blizzard into playing their crapfest. Thank you Vardar for cleansing me of my addiction. I can now go off into the sunset and try one of the far superior MMO's.

Wait ... they're all crap?

Ah yes, another balanced and unbiased post.  I suppose your guilds affiliation with Warhammer has absolutely nothing to do with this huh?

Is WAR boring you that much that you can only get cheap thrills from visiting forums of other games to bash them?

Still, there's plenty of other forums you can visit to spew mindless gibberish.  AOC, DAOC, DDO, SWTOR, oooo the list is endless.  I bet you feel like a kid in a candystore.

Basically, this expansion offers nothing really new, wait a new class!! to do what??? the same thing i have done for the past 3+ years...i am just saying that blizzard makes a killing,, offering nothing new to the table,, but in sense the exact same thing they offered when WoW first launched....i applaud Blizzard, they are the king of the market,  expanding the same original game buy just adding more content that will become boring in a few weeks, change it up abit, make it interesting, nope, why should the? millions of people are playing and buying it...so the saga continues..

Sorry to derail the subject of the thread for a moment but I have to intervene here.

WAR's PvP is quite a bit better  than WoW's, but it's nowhere near the PvP nirvana you seem to think it is. WAR is still -WAY- gear based as far as PvP goes, which means skill doesn't mean as much as it should. PvP should be skill first, gear second. Which means if I'm fighting an equal level person but I'm way better than they are I should win, that's not the case in WAR.

It -is- the case in COD4 and CS (which the fact that you would say those -aren't- good examples of pvp means you don't know anything).

Even then there are some aspects of PvP in WoW that I would say are better than WAR. First and foremost being that the controls in WoW are smoother. For some reason controlling my character in WAR can feel sluggish and "rough".
