Happy New Year and all that jazz. Thought I would post some screen shots of Warhammer and the continuous action on the Darklands Server. As you will see from the number players in some of the screen shots the PvP has a lot of people participating and is a blast. Sure the game has its faults, but I haven't had this much fun PvPing since UO.

Other than taking three week holidays a couple of weeks ago, last night I finally dinged level 40 in Warhammer.



Ill give a more detailed update later, needless to say I am still enjoying the PvP in War and looks like its only getting better.

Warhammer Online went live recently and The Kelly Gang has been out capturing Keeps and laying waste to Destruction when we are grouped and fighting together.

The betas are over and this time it counts. Here's some action shots so far:

Last night was the final night of the preview weekend and a lot of players turned out on the Oceanic server to put on a large scale siege in the tier two area of the game. Below are a number of screen shots I took while fighting with my order mates in an attempt to take back out keep.

One thing that did become obvious to me which I'm seeking answers on is: If Destruction takes our keep like they did last night, how do they defend it and their own keep? I mean as the attackers we only have to attack one keep at a time, but the defenders would have to split there force and try and defend two keeps. Or do both armies just battle it across the map as they run between keeps?

On a side note, if I post screen shots and below the post it has read more, click it because more screen shots will be in the post itself. Click the images and cycling through them from the main page only shows the images on the main page.

Ok here are a series of screen shots from this weekends preview. Most of them are PvP focused with a couple of PvE. I rolled a Witch Hunter and have had such a blast playing this character that I think this will become my main when the game goes live. Though the requirement for healers is still something that we need within the guild, only issue is that an effective healer in RvR is a dead healer as they are the first target.

Yesterday I mentioned that we are looking like we will get three servers down under. Well I logged in this morning to see if the beta was open again and I noticed that the server names from yesterday have been changed. Good news is we definitely look like having three servers on launch.



Also those that are not in the closed beta, but have been accepted to the preview weekend can now patch there client. I tested this with my preview account and it authenticated and patched the client.

Cheers

Mythic have stated they are going to release three server types on launch of Warhammer. Those type are Core, Open RvR and Core RP. So speculation has been what sort of server type would we get down under. Well I think I have the answer.

ALL THREE!!!!!
You heard it here first :-)
Cheers

I managed to get use of a friends closed beta account for Warhammer Online and I have to say my first 6 hours in game have been very impressive. Which I wouldn’t expect anything less, considering Age of Conan for the first twenty levels was content rich and provided a great gaming experience. I mean if you cant get the first twenty levels right, your game is doomed from the onset.

The NDA for Warhammer Online has been lifted as Mythic prepare to launch there next RVR focused MMO. I stated previously that I was not going to play Warhammer, well I have relented as the guild I joined have all moved from AOC and are starting in War.

One thing I can say is the design documents I have read and the way the game is focused around Realm versus Realm this game is certainly shaping up to be an excellent time sink. Mythic have a lot of experience with RvR in Dark Age of Camelot and therefore should have learned a lot to whats required to make the experience fun and addictive. So for your viewing pleasure I am posting some screen shots of my first romp in War.

Expect more to come over the next couple of weeks as I use the beta period to try all of the characters I can so as to know what I want as a main when the game launches.
