Wow, some big changes here. Removal of fortresses, making all toons start in one area............

I guess this shows how much the population has declined. Hopefully this will make the gaming experience better for those still playing.

We don't have enough people playing to take a fortress we feel that the fortresses were keeping people from the capital seiges, which are the core of the games RvR

Wow, that's a lot of changes. I wonder if they are just doing away with the other races' starting zones or can you still access them? It's a shame if they are just trashed. I liked the greenskin and the dark elf starter zones.

I wonder if it will be too little too late for WAR? The apprentice system is nice and will help people who want to group with friends and the changes should help the current player base.

I like the bug fixes but hate the RvR changes. Remember back before the game was even in beta, they said city sieges were supposed to be rare. When city sieges are done this often, it will be even harder to facilitate "realm pride." I'm glad I abandoned ship when I did. It seems like they are catering to the loot whores who want the "best gear" now.

It worked for WoW.

Aye, but there already is a Wow and I hear it has quite the playerbase.

WAR can not beat WoW at their own game. What made WAR so appealing was that it was (was) so different. There is no room on the market for a WoW clone.

Yeah, that's what makes my comment funny. Or sad. Depends on your perspective. I (and so many others) were hoping they would make an updated version of Camelot. Fix the things that didn't work there and enhance the things that did work.

I had forgotten that they said that.


Although, loot whores is probably all they have left playing the game, all 41 of them.
