Warhammer Online gives up a point in re-review

11 Aug 2009 09:00:00 PDT

Written by Brooke Pilley
MMO reviews are a funny thing. Besides the fact that they're ripe for subjectivity and personal bias (like all reviews), they're also judging a type of game that is always changing. Maybe that's why Eurogamer does re-reviews. They originally scored Warhammer Online with an 8/10, calling i...

Opinion: Warhammer Online: Bad Live Event, Bad Patch

01 May 2009 14:26:19 PDT

Written by Gas Bandit(noreply@blogger.com)
First, the live event was buggy and poorly planned. Part of it required every single person to pick up 2 crates. Each tier had its own location where the crates spawn, and that location was always in "contested" ORvR territory. So far so good. But here's where the problem starts... the location is a...

Opinion: MMORPG Quality

Written by Tobold(noreply@blogger.com)
I have a shocking theory about why Age of Conan and Warhammer Online had such a low retention rate, losing most of their subscribers after a short time: These games simply weren't very good. Shocking, I'm telling you! I'm arriving at that conclusion from economic theory, particularly the...

Opinion: Warhammer Online down to 300k subscribers

Written by Tobold(noreply@blogger.com)
Via Brokentoys comes the news that EA fessed up to the real Warhammer Online : Age of Reckoning subscription numbers, and they are a lot lower than most people thought: Right now WAR has only 300k subscribers. Which isn't shabby in comparison to any other $15-a-month game except World of Wa...

First off, I'd like you to meet Spazter. Spazter is a level 26 Warrior Priest. Certainly Mythic's staple in MMOs is their concept of Realm versus Realm (RvR). A trademark they coined with the release Dark Age of Camelot back in 2001. Mythic actually takes the concept of RvR a little further w...

Review: Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning

17 Oct 2008 16:20:24 PDT

Written by Gas Bandit(noreply@blogger.com)
Furthermore, Warhammer Online was designed from the ground up as a game where PvP, or rather, RvR, is the focus (as opposed to WoW which was entirely calibrated around PvE and continues to make that the primary focus of the game, all the way through the endgame). You can engage in RvR (Realm v...

Opinion: MMORPG - MMOCrunch - World of Warcraft: Warhammer: Top 5 Issues

13 Oct 2008 08:46:50 PDT

This is issue one for me and a lot of the community at the moment. The entire premise of Warhammer Online is the war in the overworld. I don’t think anyone bought this game to do instanced battlegrounds, but at the present time they seem to be the most rewarding option in regards of using RvR to ad...

Opinion: MMOdus Operandi: Warhammer Online - the next big thing?

27 Sep 2008 12:25:03 PDT

The other main innovation in combat is the fact that there is collision detection, so you can’t just walk through other players (friend or foe). This is very interesting, particularly in siege warfare, as placement thus becomes far more important – particularly for tanks.

Written by Mike Fahey
Warhammer is a pretty big name right now. With the launch of Mythic's epic MMORPG Warhammer Online and previous successes with the Warhammer 40K setting in the PC real-time strategy market, it makes sense for a console game to take advantage of the name recognition. Thus have Black Hole Gam...

WAR review

09 Sep 2008 21:39:35 PDT

Written by Tobold(noreply@blogger.com)
PvE: Despite all the marketing hype praising WAR as a PvP game, WAR is a great PvE game. PvE fun might stop at the level cap, which is only 40. But for making alts and leveling them to the level cap without doing any content twice, WAR even beats WoW. You can level up at least 6 characters to 40 before...
