For the people who have difficulty teling one screen from another ,this is for you.
For the people who have crawled to WAR after they`re fanboyiusm got the better of them over at the AOC forums,this is for you.
For the people who cant get WOW out of they`re heads, this is for you.
For the troll who has the hump because AOC wasnt all its cracked up to be , now they feel like a fool for buying it,this is for.
We are seeing a lot of WAR/WOW comparisons just lately..why? ,i don`t no. Maybe the fact that these people are new or have not been following the game that long and are mmorpg hoppers.

I could go on and on but i wont,lets just say that, people see bright colours and the style of WAR which we no has been around for years and we no the story behind WOW/WAR.
From the screens anyone with half they`re eye siight intact should see the my point.

My guess is because we keep seeing so many WAR fanbois over on the AoC forums that admit they've never even tried it but bash it all the same, saying we should all be waiting to play WAR instead.
Congrats on a good flamer thread title but ya your still pretty lame in your desire to try and Hype WAR.. People who want to play WAR will, those who don't won't and theres enough room in the world for both view points not just your own. If the games any good it really won't need all the hype which in turn just leads people to having unrealistic expectations of the game.
people are sick of wow (some not all) and aoc game engine is a pile of crap funcom released half ass done. also warhammer is before warcraft. warhammer been around for like 25 years warcraft only like 15. how stole whos ideas

Wow has been on PCs way longer than warhammer and with way more success, I'd say that war is going to use WoW's success for their own good now, just like warcraft used Warhammer's success 15 years ago.

WoW has been on the PC longer than Warhammer yes, but the overall art designs and art concepts of Warhammer have been around a lot longer, even before WoW was thought of as a fantasy world. So the poster you've quoted is somewhat correct in the idea that Blizzard took many art designs from the Warhammer universe.

This thread is about screenshots or have you not noticed. I don`t need to hype WAR because Paul does a very good job already. I f this thread was made in the AOC forums i could see your point but incase you havent noticed this is the WAR forums.
I don`t need to have unrealistic expectations about WAR . If any game had unrealistic hype it was AOC wouldnt you say? We are going off subject here anyway,so what do you think about the WOW/WAR screenshot comparisons.
This thread is not a AOCV WAR thread even though you would like it to be,its about screenshots.

This what i am saying? Many people still cant get it through their skulls that Warhammer has been around for 25 years and has a massive following through TT. The screenshots i have posted should convince the not so informed trhat WAR grathics are nothing like WOW ..at all.

They`re you go, its not hard to grasp.
The games do not look anything alike to me.
Know what the best part is? No gnomes.
(Yes, I know this comment isn't constructive at all, but I hate gnomes, and don't have time to post a long thoughtful commentary before work)
Well, that is quite a contrast between WAR and WoW in graphics! WAR looks more realistic with a more immersive environment.
I'm looking forward to WAR's release!
I don't know why so many people are always throwing WOW out there against all new games. Yes WOW is a great game for some, for others like myself I find it repeatative and boring. As for the graphics it's quite obvious by the pics the OP posted that WAR is alot more detailed and realistic then WOW. I love the way the Elves look in WAR and I must admit this is the first time I've seen a pic of them. Too bad WAR is all about PVP or I'd really think about playing but I'm not a pvper at all, being female I have a hard time dealign with the pvp egos that seem to go hand in hand with that game play style.
Thanks for the pics though it's nice to see what the game will look like even if I won't be playing.
I am blind as the title stated....but I was unable to read any of this, because....well...I'm blind.
So I know one of you is going to be a wise a** and ask how I was able to read it in the first place....duh...Braille on the flat screen.
Warhammer Short Story Chap. 6 updated 6/28/08

Listen you guys you've got it all wrong! WoW copied WAR, trust me on this.
We're all Geniuses. Most of us just don't know it.
this is just stupid.. I am currently in beta and I can tell you its not even close to wow in graphic or gameplay. if you gonna compare it then compare war with daoc
iv been playing WARHAMMER table top for almost ten years im a WARHAMMER fanboy....still not sure if i will be getting this game or not
March on! - Lets Invade Pekopon
Correct.
Warhammer is Age of loading screens all over again...
No copies of zones (what a relief !) but even the final city fights are ..... instanced.
It looks that WotLK will be the ONLY new fantasy game with real open world PvP.
Rejoice old gamers of DAoC !!!
We get it, You love WoW.
There are 3 types of people in the world.
1.) Those who make things happen
2.) Those who watch things happen
3.) And those who wonder "What the %#*& just happened?!"
We get it, You love WoW.
your speaking evil.

you sir are speaking the faith.........
Chaos!!!!! because we can.
WoW is getting old and boring as hell with all this star wars fantasy items, real wow was pre tbc after that its just horrible crap. Next hope Diablo 3 from blizzard.
but in while il go for WAR
We get it, You love WoW.
your speaking evil.
*stuffs a bar of Ivory Soap in his mouth*
Sowry

Instances are a must for city sieges, because the entire server will be at the gates.
It is not possible to have a 1000+ vs 1000+ battle without the lag being absolutely insane.
If you have the solution (not instancing) to allowing an entire server of 5000 players to participate in the same battle without lag, please feel free to educate everyone here on these forums.
Also, 90% of RvR will occur in Open World PvP. Open World PvP is 100% open and you can cram as many players into one keep as you would like. Just thought you should know this..........
Keeps, sieges, and fortresses..... rejoice old DAoC gamers indeed.
STOP WHINING!
