WARHAMMER ONLINE: The Preview Weekend for WARHAMMER ONLINE has taken place and I got some major time in with the game Saturday and Sunday.
I made a wide range of characters, trying out various races and classes and had a grand ol’ time. Other than crashing to desktop from time to time and having to run the game on lower graphics settings - I loved every minute of it. Take a look at some fun (but mediocre visual quality) screens I grabbed for you and read fresh WAR looks at: G-Spy, Keen & Graev, Ten Ton Hammer and Massively. Waaagh = fun!
“G-Spy Quote: It’s impossible to describe in the space of a short article all the different varieties of PvP available in Warhammer Online. Scenarios run the gamut from simple timed slaughterfests for points to take-and-hold actions to king-of-the-hill games to capture-the-flag. As players ascend in level, they’ll be asked to take part in more elaborate Scenarios that will require more coordination and planning. The beauty of all of this PvP is the way it’s all tied together into the ultimate end game of taking the enemy capitol. Low-level players in early areas of the game, PvE players and Scenario players all contribute by opening up zone locks and giving bonuses to higher level players. From level one, players are thrust into a larger “end game” that they can contribute to merely by pursuing their own agenda.”
