Anyone on the road-to-war website? From the looks of it there are a lot of destruction players roaming around.

Also, Can someone outside of a US or EU server join it? I'm in Canada and I don't want to be left out of everywhere.

Road-to-War is only for US/Canada/Oceania residents

GoA gave EU players the orcanizer... talk about equal treatment.

orcanizer doesn't sound too interesting, unless you're an orc....

A small qualm with the road-to-war I have is that they don't list all the Canadian provinces, They skip our territories up north (though they are rather empty) and miss my province. I can place a location marker there, but it doesn't appear in there list like the other states/provinces. Sure Canada is there, but only half there.

so what's the orcanizer like?

EDIT: Never mind, I just looked it up. I feel sorry for you guys...

Damnit I did look on the Road to War and well now I am just not going to trust in anything until its all out and ready.

The fact that they will not let your player run back to gank people by locking off areas is incredibly lame system. If I understood that correctly I will not be playing can u clarify Dalamar?

At this point you get chickened as soon as you go into any Tier of lower level than yours. What that means is that after you reach level 32, all, *all* previous content is locked away for you.

They are thinking up of a way to allow players to go back while still not being able to gank with impunity but I just don't see it happening. Chicken will be in.


They are working on another system for the Open RVR server because of that.

@GrogsnotPowwabomba:

What are you talking about? The DK system was about killing "Civilian" which are quest givers but, in my opinion, it was the worst system ever which killed the world PVP and then made the game boring.

Sorry but in my opinion, being ganked is part of the game. I do not gank myself, but knowing that you can be killed anytime by anybody, makes the game a little more fun, for me, of course.

Bad news guys and gals. I won't be able to get Warhammer Online for a while. I hardly have any time to play computer games anymore. But I'd still like to hear what's going on and what you guys are planning. When I get the game, I'll be rolling.

Order

Bright Wizard - Alt
Warrior Priest - Alt

Engineer - Alt
Rune Priest - Alt

No High Elves for me.

Destruction

Sorceress - Main
Disciple - Depends if I like how it feels

Zealot - Main/Alt
Marauder - Main/Alt

Shaman - Main/Alt


When I just have a main (such as the Sorceress), that means I'll be playing it the most. When I have Main/Alt, it means I'll be playing them more occasionally and they'll be more spruced up then my other alts which I'll be making.

The orcaniser is a legend thing!

Although I originally though that it would be an organiser (as in for quests) but brought down to the orc level.

But have a look at it anyways - has all the linguo you need:

I just realised. This game comes out the day I'm supposed to move into my uni apartment. >.< And considering I'm going to uni about 150 miles away from the shop I've pre-ordered my collector's edition from.... I think I might cry.

Damn it. Sular you just made me think exactly the same thing. It comes out like a day before I move to uni. Which means my laptop (if it will be able to run it in the 1st place...) will be neatly packed up

Grrrr


There will be crushing.... but not straight away ;(

What's even worse is that my Dad won't let me stop off in town before we leave for Manchester so I can pick up my collector's edition. I probably won't see it until October-November :(

Have you seen the apology from their CEO? Seems GOA are eating huge amounts of humble pie. Thewy say it should be running better by late this morning. I'm not holding my breath.

I think he means he is Rank 16, with Renown Rank 10 armour. Is this correct?
