Just a simple question here as to why you will not be playing the game. Too busy with your current mmo ? Waiting for other games ? Whatever the reason may be just put it here. No bashing the game, keep it clean and have fun!

I will be buying the game.  I will keep playing the game if it has good PVE.  PVP is the primary selling point of the game, but as with all PVP games (mostly FPS) I usually get bored after a few months.  CoD4 for example, was and is a great game.... ,but kill after kill got a little repetitious and I eventually quit and moved onto another game.  All in all I hear WAR will have great PVE and I am hoping for that.  However, if it does not than I will play for a few months and put it down most likely.

Don''t reply to me or quote me if you can''t do so without breaking Forum TOS cause I will report you!

Only reason really is if the CTD / RvR Latency persists through the rest of beta. I'll just wait a while before activating my accounts once its launched.

The game is fine, but if I can't play it for more than 15-30 minutes without having to memory dump, whats the point.

I used to be able to come up with a ton of reasons, but now that i've played in beta I can't come up with anything.

Yeah for me I'm not 100% convinced yet this game will have alot of replayability. I know it is new and alot will try it bt I think for me it is best I wait and see how things go after launch before trying it for myself.

Firstly like many mmos the game will not be a finished product when it is released. Yes I know Mythic has announced this to everyone and what they do release may very well be in good working condition but it doesnt change the fact that 4 cities will be missing along with a number of classes. Considering that there were only going to be 4 classes on each side that limits my choice even further. Yes I know that means 24 classes in total which is more than previous games but I like to be creative with what I play as and WAR doesnt offer that level of variety. I'm sure the game will be quite good fun as it is but I would rather wait for 6 months or a year when hopefully the game will be closer to what it was originally meant to be.

Also I am playing EVE at the moment and I just cant see myself going from a game with lots of choice into one that limits what I can be and do and forces me to pick cookie-cutter classes along with everyone else. I still hate the fact that human wizards all have to be fire mages! Isnt that gonna look a bit silly?

Also I'm a bit tired of all these story-driven games to be honest. Its about time that more sandbox-style online games started coming out where the players create the situations rather than us getting told what to do and where to go. I will still probably give WAR a bash at some point though if I get bored with EVE.

It´s not my kind of game. I cant really find anything with it that would appeal to my game style. I´m looking for something more sandbox, low fantasy, with a realistic art style and good character customization. At the moment the only game on my list is Fallen Earth.

In the middle still at the moment.

- European service is looking as if it will be sub par

- Same as the poster above me: constant CTDs. Waiting for a miracle patch at the moment

- The game is decent, but it feels like most of the other MMOs (just with a more fleshed out PvP part), and it just doesn't get me passionate or excited. Again, nothing wrong with the game (content is there, features are there), but coupled with the above 2 reasons, I'm not sure if it will be worth it for me.

I am waiting for OB and Head Start and I will see what that brings, in terms of service and patches for nasty issues. If it isn't better or solved, I won't be picking up my CE that I preordered.
