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!

Summary: Install problems with DVD version
Comment: As much as I dislike reviewing a product without having played it, EA gives me no choice in the matter. My DVD version of the game was not able to be installed. This is not an isolated incident but from what I've gathered online it is a widespread problem with the DVD version. Those who downloaded the game are lucky (or wise?) Support will run you through many "fixes" which do not work, as I'm sure they know before they tell you. Seeing as how the game takes such a long time to install, having to install the entire game, uninstall, and reinstall again wasted at least 10 hours of my time, which I'd like back please EA, thank you very much.
