View Full Version : Warhammer Online
Well, When it is about time to release. I know for a fact that Myself, Wonderbread(jimlaff), TheMakki, and Frenzied Muffin are going to play (along with another friend or two) We are probably all going the good side, Order.
Basically, We are most likely going to make our own guild and anybody that plays on Stompfest is invited. Ofcourse we will get some recruits from the game itself~ But I want to have a Stompfest guild.
Now, I am not sure if they have guild name rules like LOTRO or anything, but if they don't I want to try to name it Stompfest. Not sure what server yet.
If anybody is wondering, Makki, Myself, and Frenzied have leading/raiding exp from WoW(lawl) So we are going to try our best, that is.. If we get the guild up and running :D

I've been following this game for quite a while now (going back to the Climax days) and am psyched about it. Unfortunately I'm already in a guild that will be playing (order side) so good luck and hopefully see you on the battlefield.
:D coolcool.
We will probably end up doing what we did on wow all the time and just end up joining a random guild instead of making one. (easier)
But meh.

meh i will be running a hard core guild from day of release. till i burn out my days of TF2 are limited to how much i will like or dislike warhammer. you all are welcome to join but i take no shit and i set out to be one of the top guilds on server.
Well then, Halfwit.
Because like I said, Makki and Myself have a good record of making guilds and then just leaving them later on. But this is a complete different game, so. We might just join up with you if ya don't mind.

120 wow i am gonna have to see the dynamics of the game first to determine guild size.
i have found for myself when running hard core gaming guilds the number of players should be kept a min amount to do what you need and without getting so big you have alot of personalities clashing and drama.
i am really looking forward to WH and grinding for 2-3-4 days straight to the max level. getting some new server firsts and maybe a world first here or there.
myself and diannne where looking at class selections the other night. i am so torn i dont know if i wanna tank or destroy shit.the new shaman looks nice might go that route gonna have to look at the talent trees.
god dam it you guys now i am gonna be looking at warhammer shit all night.

the 120 will most likely end up as an alliance of about 6 guilds. I ran a gank guild of 12 that worked great, and ran a large guild of 200 that had its perks too. The gank guild was strictly good at pvp. the large guild could do both pretty effectively. Zerging was fun at times :)
I will most likely be a healer sort. Probably a Shaman if we are Destruction or a Warrior Priest if we are Order. We as in our little group of friends, but.. Half I would totally want to join up with you if ya guys are going to. I know for a fact I will play this game like I did WoW pre-bc. hah

Are you sure you know what Hardcore means? Im too old to handle 5-6 hours a day, day in and day out.
One day in the WoW expansion I just said, to heck with this and stopped. Didnt even finish leveling to 70. Was like 66 or something and logged out in the middle of the XP zone. Never been back.
That said, we should make sure we choose same server. Ill introduce you to "Itzrage" on Vent. For a time I thought "Goddamn Buku" was one word.
We wont be at the level we used to, but the old hats will probably play.

yeah i am sure i know what it mean,:) but the things i am not sure about the the pve to pvp balance
i do prefer pve over pvp,always fun to smack people around but i enjoy end game raiding.
there will be level requirements weekly as so we can level up as fast as possible, if the pve content is what i hope we will be raiding nightly sunday-thursday prob 7-12 or 8-12 est.
there is room for casuals for sure depending cause there is always room in a raid for fill ins.
there is alot of details i not sure about depending on game play and what not. including raids times and so forth but i am excited and looking forward to it.
thing i am sure about is loot if loots are to be had it will be done based loosely on a dkp system, but will be officer merit all raids will have a loot council.comprised of class leads and officer's . this is to insure those who deserve the lewts get it . all loot belongs to the guild and it is their decision on who gets whats, loots will be given out to those who of course deserve it and gives us the best chance to advance in content.(this is raid wise of course)
but if your the type of person who wants to raid see end game shit provided there is some type than i will get you their.but the people have to make up their minds they want to do it. we will see once it is released in Oct. what it is like and about for sure. sadly i had a beta pass and lost it casue i wanted to play TF2 i wish i had not lost it now :(
Half
Half, any idea if your guild will be Order or Destruction?
Cause my little group of friends are most likely going Order due to ya know.. every person so far wants to go Destruction.
Meh, j/w
Halfwit
05-18-2008, 12:35 PM
depends on server i guess not looking to go order on a pvp server dominated by destruction if we go pve type server i am fine with order. as long as their is true balance between the sides

I haven't played any MMORPGs (or the like) for a LONG time, but thought I'd share my brother's story in case you guys can use it to your advantage. Granted, this is a totally different game, but someone mentioned Tank and I immediately remembered my brother. Anyway, here it is..
My bro plays City of Heroes/Villains and his main character is THE tank for his clan. He built the char up to have virtually no offensive power but be almost completely indestructible. Other than that, his char has 2 key powers: teleport and taunt. So what he does in a clan v clan battle is teleport right into the middle of the enemy and taunt them, which makes any enemies within a certain radius only able to attack him. He can't really fight back himself, but it doesn't matter. All the other members of his just charge in and kill most of the enemy clan while they're futiley attacking my bro. Apparently they win ALL the time. Maybe you can use this tactic in Warhammer online?
Maybe you can use this tactic in Warhammer online?
Currently at the moment, I don't believe you can tele in Warhammer.

havnt really followed warhammer, been looking to get back into mmorpgs when I get a new comp built one day.
Looking at the classes on the warhammer main page, I dont see anything resembling a rogue/assassin class. This, is a disappointment to me.
The game looks interesting, but not having a assassin type class, i think ill be passing

actualy it does have a assign /rouge class what is really cool about warhammer so it seems is your class are not limited by vertical talent trees but horizontal
check it out i remember seeing something about a rogue class i will see if i can not find it.

eric wins again ! lol also i do not think it will be free and frankly i dont want it to be free.
p2p is the only way if income comes in servers are up kept ..free content patches ect.
if it is free you gotta but expansion after expansions servers are not upkept the best patches are few and far between i rather pay for my experience.

There is no co-mingling of Order and Chaos in a guild. unlike WoW it is all about crushing the other side. That also means an account can't have a Order and Chaos character on the same server like WoW.
EQ2 never had that Good vs Evil feel. Just what class/race you wanted to play. Which I really enjoyed for a PVE game. but now I'm looking to get into the heavy RvR arena and bring my Hammers (http://mythicmktg.fileburst.com/war/us/media/images/careers/ss_june12_hammerer_3.jpg).
I think warhammer will revolutionize the MMO industry, sort of in a way like WoW did. But more.
Then again.. there is always that thought in the back of my head just thinking Warhammer might fail and really I just wasted 4 years of my life looking online all over the place for more info on the game :O

wait.... you cant have 2 chars on 1 account from both factions? WoW just sucked even more for me (played the retarded 14day free trial, never got past 5 hours, was so retarded and cartoonish, couldnt stand it compared to EQ2) with that.
Honestly, if its like that for Warhammer, you can count me out from playing it.
Guess when I finally rebuild a comp, its back to EQ2 and maybe give EQ1 another go...

Presently I'm looking into getting a Chosen (Tank-type) for Chaos (Disorder faction). The Order faction does look good too in general, though I would honestly only play in four out of the six factions, with them being Empire, Dwarves, Greenskins (WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!), and Chaos (I only really like the Chosen class for Chaos). I'll keep y'all in mind when I do go about making an Order character down the line.

Yeah you can't have Order and Chaos characters on the same Server. It'd kind of be counter productive with WAR since your whole goal is to sack the opposing city(ies) so if you have a character on both factions, you'd be killing off a city you just helped built up. (Cities level up just like characters and guilds. if your city gets sacked and your king dragged away, your back to the start and have to build up again)
With EQ2, your actions didn't help or hurt the city you belong to, with WAR, EVERYTHING you do helps your side try and take control of the opposing side. So many people will have their Order Server and then a Alt-Destruction Server (or vice versa). Which looking at the game, it just makes sense to do.
Ganwen
05-23-2008, 09:33 PM
okay, that makes much more sense to me.
Pretty much I am 99.99% sure I will be going Order.
But.. Since the first time I have ever played an MMO I have always been very skilled, and good, with a healer class. Spent near 3 years on my druid(s) on WoW and anybody that has ever grouped with me will tell ya ;D
I am positive I will be making a Warrior Priest, from what I have seen~ They are just Retribution Paladins except actually useful (lolololol)
Nothing like the only way you get healing power is to bash the shit out of somebody.

However, If I do not enjoy them in Open beta then I will probably make a Rune Priest.. just to be a dwarf. :D :D :D :D

It would be unique to have separate servers for each side and then have the servers go against each other at a certain time. It would most likely help..somehow.
So.
Two of my friends and I went to gaming-origins in Columbus Ohio and got to play Warhammer Online in person.
The RvR (pvp) was amazing as far as how balanced it is. (I CAN FINALLY KILL SOMETHING AS A HEALER) We did not get to play the RvR for that long cause we owned the other side so much they didn't re-join. So we just did PvE for like 2 hours.
I must say, I am rather impressed with the way that the Public Quests are set up. It was kind of like raiding, like in WoW with that epic feeling you get, just without 40 retards and instead about 4 retards. :D
---------
Also, we have decided on a guild name.
Slackers.
It was our hardcore PvP guild on the WoW server we used to play on~ And the offer still stands if you want to join just hit me up. I want to be a rather large guild but we shall see. :)
