Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning

I enjoyed the first month and then it went downhill from there. I played it more because I wanted to enjoy it and for it to be the game I hoped for but deep down it wasn't. I waited years to be disappointed ;/ Just look at the AoC forums m8, peeps are leaving in their droves.

A lot of big guilds have quit, simply because it doesn't cut it.

These games are about teaming up and cracking heads and having fun. After the honeymoon period AoC didn't produce much fun, for me anyhow Smile

I was still enjoying it until I had a week with no time to play. After a week I found I hadn't missed it or even thought about it at all.

I put this down to pvp, plain and simple in wow, conan etc I find myself levelling in pve largely to keep up to be able to pvp, as I play less than most I then end up avoiding pvp so as to pve and not be left behind. This what happened in Conan, I came for PvP and found myself avoiding it to try and keep up.

I wasn't really looking at War at all (despite loving Warhammer lore etc) until I read you can level in PvP which seemed like such a brilliant yet bloody obvious solution I decided to try it. Not been disappointed at all yet.

Whether it will last any longer than Conan is yet to be seen and I reserve the right to quit in 4-8 weeks calling it crap! Very Happy

That smells like plagiarism Razz

My holiday also confirmed that I didn't miss it or care that I wasn't playing it. I do miss the fatalities though Wink

Well after the initial screw-up with the beta registration GOA have shown some class and given all beta players who play on release an extra week gratis, good on them Smile

Dear all,
More than 100,000 European players have now created characters and launched enthusiastically into the violent and bloody battlefields of the Old World every evening. Despite this, for many of you and for us as well, the launch of the open beta has left a bitter taste. While it is true that the purpose of Beta Testing a game is to indeed expose problems before a game launches, the launch did not happen anywhere near as smoothly as we had planned.

Because of this I have decided to offer seven free days to all of the beta testers. If you decide to continue your adventures in WAR, and we certainly hope you do, you will be credited on your account from the 18th of September and will be able to take part in the adventure without any regret. By the beginning of next week, we expect many more to join us as we open the gates for our Head Start, and we look forward to welcoming all of you in the Warhammer world.

Best regards,

Ghislaine Le Rhun
