(bonus article before I leave! enter the contest already!) Although a lot of people refuse to see it or write it off as a conspiratoid mindset, every bit of released news and my entire gut is telling me that Blizzard is not writing off Warhammer Online as a minor threat — a la Age of [...]

…The NDA is sure to drop. Or not. But really, considering my general luck with the scheme of the world, it would drop the one and only week I’ll be gone this summer. I actually kind of doubt it will (it’s far too soon after guild beta just began), but that won’t [...]

Is it futile to even talk about anything else this week? I guess so! We here at WAAAGH! Labs have been slaving hard to find the right formula to deliver the E3 experience straight to your brain, but considering that you might end up like Keen over there, it’d probably be best if you [...]

Let’s wrap this little baby up: what type of servers am I leaning toward, and which of the two factions in general? SERVERS TYPE: (as of right now, no official server rulesets have been declared, and it’s quite possible there will only be one ruleset to choose from) Normal Ruleset: In most MMOs, if given a choice, [...]

My future’s so bright, I gotta wear shades! With WAR fulfilling any fantasy/PvP needs, Champions Online for the superhero geek in me, and now KOTOR Online covering scifi… really, will I ever be able to leave my home? Random thought: with WAR, KOTOR, DAoC and Ultima Online, how cool would it be if they’d get a Station [...]

Well, I guess it’s official. Over a month and a half ago, I reported on a World of Warcraft beta leak in which an “Achievements” system — which eerily echoed Warhammer Online’s Tome of Knowledge — was being tested. People’s responses to the news ranged from “So what, it’s not like the Tome [...]

So as you may have noticed from this week’s edition of Da Newz, we’re not only growing bigger and bigger in the WAR community, but when major news happens — multiple times, no less, in the space of a week — it just gets nigh ridiculous to try to cover it all. I’ve been asked how [...]

Story of the Week: Four capital cities and four classes cut from launch. Frankly, we at WAAAGH! have never seen the WAR community so frenzied, emotional and opinionated about any event to date. As “Black Friday” rolled around, Mark Jacobs lowered the boom: four careers and four capital cities would be cut from the launch. [...]

A month ago, Mythic announced that each server will allow a maximum of 10 character slots, of which all have to be of the same faction (Order or Destruction).  I mused, “Why not 12, so you could make one of each?” Huh.  Think that was part of the plan?

Destruction seems to have been given preferential treatment in WAR so far — the more “flavorful” classes exist on this side, it’s gotten more press, and the prelaunch fans seem to favor it statistically. So, if I roll Destruction, what classes am I looking at? (again, 1 - most likely to make my [...]
