WAR (Warhammer Online)

I was just wondering from a players standpoint, what you liked and disliked about Warhammer and why?

Pros:

Can get exp from PvPing...... Ya Baby!!!!!

Fast leveling = less monster grinding

Fast Health Regeneration between fights, remember ing the days of having to sit on your butt in EQ between fights for faster health regen

RvR is fast paced, team oriented fun

I think the classes are nicely balanced for team war, not solo war but thats not what the game is designed for

I love the classes, quiet abit of variety

Cons

Could be better graphics, the arts nice however being 2008 it would be nice if the graphics were on par with at least AOC not WOW

Travel sucks

COH spolied me on character customization., I have seen worst but it could be better.

Needs more people

Needs more people

Did I mention it needs more people?

Im sure theres tons more pros and cons but those are the ones that effect me in a positive and negative way.

Pros

- PvP is fun( atleast when the teams are evenly matched)

- Public Quest (if you have people for it)

- Many classes

Cons

- Crafting

- Trading ( you kinda get eveything from quest and such)

- Graphics (but can still be laggy i ORvR)

- Low population

what i can think of now...

PROS:
WAR. the title is what the game is all about baby.
EXP for killing in pvp [less grinding]
Challenging PQ's [atleast for me :(
open rvr sieges are super duper fun!!!
Unique classes

NEUTRAL:
Decent graphics neither great or horrible.

CONS:
needs more people
needs the 4 missing classes [i wanted to play a kotbs :( ]
needs the other 4 cap cities.
needs a bit more endgame [from what iv herd]
needs more more more people

Pros:

The concept of WAR is everywhere is good.

Playable on most pcs.

No major grind to gain max level in pve.

Cons:

PQ's could have been done better.

The content they cut from the game should have been there at launch. This game needed more time in the oven before official launch.

Scenarios are ok but they become too repetitive to gain renown ranks.

PVE is too boring and dull. They need to make this aspect of the game more enjoyable.

On most servers low level tiers are empty.

We really didn't need another game based off the Warhammer IP. I would much rather enjoyed playing a DAOC 2.

Not worthy of a monthly fee just to get a pvp fix.

Lack of replayablilty after you sack the opposing city. You finish the game once and I don't see a major need to redo it all over again.

They seriously need to start merging servers. There are simply too many servers with low population making the game less enjoyable for players. WOW can offer free transfers because it has 11 mill plus playing, you do not. Leaving it up to the players right now is just a bad idea.

Pros

1-Warhammer lore

2-tome of knowledge

3-PVP leveling

Cons

1-Boreing and slow PVP and PVE

2-Poorly implemented ideas

3-Poor itemization

4-Lack of population

5-Poor end game performance

I could go on but I can't be arsed.

Pros

1. Tome of Knowledge
2.  oRvR (in theory)
3.  Lore

Cons

1. Very clunky, non-responsive combat
2. oRvR never happened (trading keeps doesn't count as RvR)
3.  Zone-locking mechanism (best way to keep someone from locking a zone is to not defend at all)
4.  Lack of 'pvp with a purpose'.  Who cares if the other realm wins everything.  It really doesn't afffect you much.

Can't add any more PROS...

Some more CONS and some agreements are...

1.  RvR LAG - GAME BREAKING!!!

2.  Lousy zone design.  Linear paths everywhere.  Its not really open at all.

3.  Lousy map layout.  Every zone is just its own level.  Theres' no real connection between them.  No large map that shows how each zone connects.  The fog or war stinks as well.  Once I discover an area, all NPCs and landmark icons should remain on my map, no matter where I am.

4. UI is buggy.  Skills don't go off.  Abilities don't fire - GAME BREAKING!!!

5.  Animation is poor and buggy.  Lack of intuitive visual feedback for many spells.

6.  Get stuck on objects I shouldn't.

7. Many tool tips are completely incorrect with spelling errors.  Signs of lazyness.   

8.  Not enough interesting items.  Not including gear sets, wheres the utility?  I'm more than 3/4 through the game and I haven't seen any items or gear that offer anything other than stats.  Wheres the extra skill you get when you equip something?  Where are the procs? 

9. PvE is just too easy.  The AI is poor.

10.  Dungeons are simplistic, not on par with other MMOs.

11.  Endgame doesn't work...nuff said=) - GAME BREAKING!!!

12.  TOo much reliance on buffs & debuffs.  Too much stacking. 

13.  R/P/S  Certain classes have no chance against others. - GAME BREAKING!!!
