Yep it did. Even during final beta is was polished. What it did suffer from was server overload during the first few days/week.

Generally, mmo's fail due to lack of initial higher level content, zero dungeon itemisation and class breaking bugs/issues. A few have failed due to major a major rework of certain aspects of the game at some point down the road.

You will never compete sucessfully with WoW if you do 'what Wow does, but do it better'. For sure, you need to it better, however you need it to be way way different imo. I couldnt believe it when I logged into War for the first time and thought 'sheesh, did they borrow the wow artists?'.

What they need to do as far as WoW converts go, is ensure that the people that give War a try for the first included month, will want to continue playing after that month is over.

Most people fail to realise that Warhammer is way older than Warcraft, the actual look of the game reflect the tabletop, and that is what Warcraft totaly stole!

That'll be the patch they were supposed to do this morning at 9am but had put off. Hopefully back up for this evening, it'll be interesting to see how much has been fixed / polished.

Edit - Yep :

"We will be bringing down all open beta servers to apply patch 4.1.1 at 3pm CET today. We expect this operation to take approximately one hour and we will be sure to let you know when the servers are available once more.

While the servers are down, why not take the opportunity to read the patch notes. This update will also include the fixes we mentioned this morning about the crash issue and the character deletion bug"

Please stop.
Just stop.

You have now jumped the shark with that.

If you want to go down that route of "This stole that", then Warhammer stole the whole Orcs/Elves/Dwarfs from LoTR. And LoTR stole that from old myths and legends.

To be honest I find Swordmasters and Black Orc's to be the more "dps" tanks, whilst Ironbreaker and Chosen are a lot more defensive.

Spot on. I played around with an IB last night and nearly fell asleep. They can take huge amounts of damage but it takes a long time to kill anything. Some people love them but I want to see big damage numbers, which is why I'm rolling BW :D I think Mythic have done a great job of the classes as theres something for everyone.

Think they will ever remake UO then ? or do you think it has been ditched all together ?

Well the closer i could find was UOGamers private server, but well i stopped lying to myself and figured that my UO time was gone, it was the best game ever at the time, maybe it was because i was young it was my first mmo etc.. but playing it now was good fun for a few weeks, seeing the graphics and remembering some stuff but that private server remember also that there was a lot of douche bag on UO, aggressive rude etc..
 
Come on GOA get the servers back online, I've got the high elves to try out before launch. Patch was only supposed to take an hour :mad:

The launch date is going to be an absolute nightmare for patching and server crashes. Kill x quest ? forget about it :D

That said, the PQs are going to be a laugh with 100s of people doing it at the same time.
