Key Features

  • Realm vs. Realm (RvR) gameplay means you will never fight alone, but as part of an army of allied players sworn to defend your homeland and conquer enemy Realms. Your every action-every quest completed, every battle fought-contributes to the war effort and can turn the tide of battle, bringing victory to your Realm!
  • Experience the camaraderie of fighting side-by-side with allied players against otherwise insurmountable odds in groundbreaking Public Quests. These cooperative PvE encounters unfold across multiple stages and allow solo players to experience the glory of RvR.
  • Embark on the endless quest to complete the Tome of Knowledge and unlock Warhammer lore, detailed monster information, new abilities and rewards, and major story plotlines. The Tome is also the story of your life in the game, tracking your achievements to share and compare with others.
  • Explore massive Living Cities that become more or less prosperous based on a Realm’s overall performance in the ongoing war. Navigate a maze of twisting streets, visit the local tavern, explore a dark under-city, and meet colorful personalities in a city full of adventure.
  • Advanced guild features give unprecedented control to leaders and members, and make guilds an integral part of the war efforts. Guilds can create unique heraldry, capture and claim keeps, and earn Guild Tactics as they grow in power along with their members.

Summary: Software from hell
Comment: This game will chew your computer up and spit it out. It's great in concept but its still in beta. They put it on the market too early. You can expect to crash to desktop at least a few times a week. Every time they introduce a patch, there are more bugs.

There is very little end game content, and it takes no time to get to end game. I think they have a good design, but unfortunately they released it before it was ready maybe. I have a quad core with four gigs of RAM, it crashes. It crashes on most everyone in the guild at one time or another. Should I say - I don't know anyone who is problem free with this game. The player base is diminishing, and with good reason. The software is not stable. Great idea, too. I'm sad.


Added note: If you do not like PVP then keep looking. This game is not a solo-able game, and not heavy on lore and role playing. Mostly pvp.

Summary: Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning
Comment: Great, fun game. Especially for people new to MMORPG's. I'm relatively new to PC games and this is only the second one I've tried, but I'm having a lot of fun with it. The only other one I have to compare it to is Age of Conan.

The game is easy to play and you can get started rather quickly. I seemed to have also picked up the fighting much easier than in Conan. The game also runs better and I don't seem to have as many updates. The quests seem to go faster and it doesn't seem like I have to stay up as long as I did with Conan. Not that I'm not as addicted, but I'm able to find good places to stop.

Summary: fun but with some problems
Comment: This game is awesome! the content, quests, graphics, everything about this game is great. The quest lines (if you read them and not just plow through) really gives you a feeling for the 25 years of lore that was made previous to this game's conception. The big problem, at least on my server is that unlike a PVE based game where the NPCs are always waiting for you when ever you are ready. this is a PVP based game and other people don't always do what you want them to do in order for you to progress further in the endgame. but still the game is far better than many other i've played.

Summary: Save Your Money, Buy World of Warcraft Instead....
Comment: I played this game in beta and into the release for 2 months before I canceled. Mythic dropped the ball and it came down as a big thud...dud of a game. It's an absolutely terrible PvP game and it's an absolutely terrible PvE game. The game seems like it wants to be kinda like WoW but have better PvP, but there's no EPIC pvp as promised.

I played Dark Age of Camelot a game Mythic put out years ago and Warhammer is no where near the game DAOC was for RvR. Warhammer was promised to be an EPIC ongoing battle of RvR, instead it's more like crappier WoW battlegrounds ongoing. It seems like Mythic was trying to grab WoW playerbase and they failed miserably trying. Just save your money, time, and frustration and buy World of Warcraft in my opinon.

Warhammer is in such bad shape with low populated servers, it feels like a ghost town anywhere you go ingame. 60 something US servers all low/low except maybe 4 or 5 that are at med/med. The game is bleeding to death very quickly.

Summary: Great Game!
Comment: I have played World of Warcraft and enjoyed it for many years. But, WAR is a MUCH better game. Mythic does a better job listening to their subscribers and giving them what they want!
