watch and weep

Goodness gracious, we ran out of mayonnaise back there, but no worries, I went to the shop and got some fresh from the ermmm Mayo-creator-thing.

I'm now up to rank 21, which is some pretty fast leveling for me personally. It took me 2 years to get to 54 in WoW. I've so far rearranged 836 faces of Order, killed a huge amount of mobs, bought a horse named Desire and wielded an axe vaguely resembling a vase.
I've seen myself die at least 200 times (if not more), became a chicken twice and had one as a sidekick. It took me three weeks to kill 20 Witch Hunters in RvR and auctioned two things for over 1 gold which were barely worth 5 silver.
I've also unlocked over 500 tome unlocks and went from wearing pants to a tuff of bear fur and back to pants never losing my village people-style leather breast-straps. I've seen wizards setting themselves on fire and I fought several deamons. Those to weak to follow the Host were sentenced to death and I have had to kill them frequently. I murdered once a defenseless player, 6 ranks lower than me because he was unlucky enough to happen to be flagged while running around. I did some crafting only to abandon it and go for scavenging instead looting charming stuff like "a tuff of hair".
I wore a hat and turned into a bear, but no-one was impressed so I did a public quest. I wasted hours running around and twice as much getting drunk on a friday night with my mates. I've killed trolls and met some on a messageboard. I've been shot at, stabbed and burned and resurrected time after time.

I play WAR and I like it.

Darkhawk had like aeons to claim his turn, but did he noooo...and yes its teh keen.

Anyway, creating one is not as fun as guessing one...so that would have been my last one

Going to post my first.
This will be an easy one.

Destruction RP Server players are amongst the dullest people around when it comes down to creating a guild name. You can quote me on that.

Examples: Lobotomy, Army Of Darkness, In With The Darkness, Waaagh! (at least this more or less WH orientated), etc.

The best guild names, "best" being a relative term here, are coming from the Dark Elves. They either work with "Houses" or names referring to various legends, mostly in one or other Scandinavian language.

Character driven RP is very thinly spread, at least for Destruction. Of course this does not come completely as a surprise as Greenskins and Chaos are not exactly communicative societies and WAR on it self doesn't really seem to offer many places where you can have quiet and nice talk.
First off, you have the zones that are almost directly tied to your game progression. Once you're engaged in Tier 3, there is little point in going back to Tier 1 and people still in Tier 1 can't easily hop over to Tier 3.
Zoning is where the traditional successful mmorpg's still score far better.
Secondly Capital cities are use for endgame and not as hubs in the currently established mmorpg's
Does the average non-rp'r care about this, not likely. They use the chat functionality to communicate, there is no need for virtual personal interaction and in my own current experience is doesn't influence the joy that I get out if playing WAR. It's just and issue that pops up for rp'ers when it comes to social interaction.

As far as I know only trail after buy. Get 30 days
Maybe 10 day trials will be appearing in a month or so.

@Mir. I'll make sure to claim your weakling life in the name of the Raven God

[big]Kinky Carpenter's Escape From New Emskrang[/big]

Last time I complained about the apparent lack of initiative on Destruction side when it comes to world RvR. Yesterday we kicked Order out of New Emskrang (RvR zone in Northland).
Again RvR showed it's charm here and we even managed to pull some tactics off. One of the players actually managed to get the warband (raid party in wow) to listen to his or her orders and as an effect we fought with some cohesion and sent Order crying after their mums.

Yet a good experience in the magical world of the mmo's is never without its little niggling issues.
Lets first state the obvious.

Tanks and melee dps fight upclose
Casters, ranged dps, etc fight from a distance.

That was the obvious

None of classes have a far reach when doing something en unless one of the sides rushes in (usually the ones that need to capture or recapture something) the game can quickly turn into a stalemate were both sides stay out of each others fighting range and do nothing much other than taking potshots at each other.
As effect once we had captured the city there was little else for us to do other than guard it. I'd like to point out that once a point has been conquered it can't be reclaimed for the following 15 minutes
Yesterday Order decided to amass their forces and basically do nothing, my guess is that they planned on waiting till all 3 points of New Emskrang became reclaimable and rush on all three at once. To be honest I couldn't be bothered to wait around 30 - 35 minutes to see some action.

Now I had a peek at some of my class it's advanced skills and one of them is getting tentacles and drawing an enemy closer to you. Is suspect  other classes have something similar or a mindcontrol thing, so the stalemate issue might only be a low-rank issue.
Overall I'm truly enjoying RvR and it must be said Mythic really knows how do draw traditional PvE-ists like me into the PvP-land.

[big]Sqarak Big World Adventure: RvR for the Masses[/big]

Yesterday evening was pretty much "RvR Unleashed: Prime Time Edition" for me. I only played with my main (Sqarak, Destruction, Burlok) and started of with some PvE missions. They were mostly mop-ups with very easy kills and thanks to the 100% droprate not much of a timesink.

As I was on my way to Norsca I notice an Open RvR zone just near the sea. It was currently in the hands of Destruction (yay). As I did a little quest on the way to Northland the zone was taken by Order. I as a loyal servant of the Raven God rushed down to meet the enemy. I saw one slip out into "logout" as I ran down. I charged completely alone with no backup into the fray and was greeted by....no one, except a couple of low level guards and a lvl 10 Champion. I soloed the low level mobs, expecting an invasion by my Chaos brethren by the time I got to the Champion.
None came, not even Order. So I left the level 10 Champion to prance around on his own and continued on to Northland. Here I discovered a new RvR zone, a town, completely dominated by Destruction (yay and a cheer!). I picked up some quests (some involving RvR objectives), did a little PQ and by the time it was done Order was reclaiming the town, this time I would intervene.
I saw a Bright Wizard dancing around and went after him, but he nuked me pretty fast. I spawned and ran back only to be greeted by 3 other Order players....long story short, I spawned and ran back. By then they were with eight...and Destruction had gathered an army....three strong.

Warcamps were literally crawling with Destruction players,  but somehow they don't care about  Open RvR. They continue doing their little PvE quests or they just rush by RvR zones onto the next Region.
Again the Lore issue shows itself here. People don't care about the lore, they don't realise that Destruction, esp Greenskins and Chaos, live to fight and kill.  I'm not advocating ganking, but if people start ignoring the core element of a games setting, something is very wrong.

Basically Destruction should invade Order territory and Order defends it.  Order defends their ground allright, but Destruction is plain laizy. They might invade, but preferably without to much resistance.

I'm Chaos, I fight to appease my gods and strive to become their Champion, no matter what the cost is....dressing up like a Elf is the limit..or maybe not. Failing to impress them leads to punishment and imo running past a battle is not going to impress them much, unless you worship Slaanesh, then you have a slight chance of being noticed if you bother doing it gracefull or while torturing a kitten....guess what! There are no kittens and WAR is no Devil May Cry so no Style points either! You kill! Kill kill kill kill, can't be to hard can it?

That's why I'd like to see some negative buffs bestowed on players who ignore RvR! I'm not expecting people to RvR aaaalll the time, but FFS, at least bother to do it when the game asks you kindly to do so....it even guides you into these RvR zones.

I also played a RvR scenario and Order got kicked in the ass with 215 to 500 \x0x/

I'm not yet in a guild, but RvR is accessible from the go.
Where I started out as my Chaos marauder I could immediately find a NPC that offered me access to a battleground (it's called differently in WAR ofcourse, but i can't remember).

I was already able to enter at rank 3, once in I got the temporal status of a rank 8 (just the stats, not the gear or skills).  Chaos got canned by Order, but that's likely because it was mostly free for all with little team-work on our side, while Order backed each other up. So entering it with a guild or predetermined group might open it up to more tactics.
If you got killed you spawn almost immediately. It was a bit like like Battlefield, but then with a bunch freaks kicking each other heads in and the point was to capture certain points on a map and convert them to your side

Can't say if this is any better or worse than what WoW is offering as I never got into the whole PvP Battlegrounds over there, but it at least feels like good fun. Once out I wanted to go immediately back in, but I had to log off.

As soon as you start playing anything relating to RvR you gain Renoun, so although you might get killed more often than you like, you still make some progression.
