More Warhammer Online Than You Can Shake A Stick At

Posted by Stropp on August 20, 2008

I know. It might seem a bit like Stropp’s World is becoming a Warhammer Online blog, but that’s not the case at all. It’s just that I’m getting a little excited.

Now that the NDA has been lifted, there’s a whole bunch of new info and opinion about WAR appearing in a frenzied Wargasm of posting. The days of frustrated blogger having to hold their tongues are over.

We already know a lot of the features that have been promised for WAR. Now we get to find out the intimate details of Public Quests, The Tome of Knowledge, and the RvR Combat everyone has been pining for. And what I’m already reading is part of the reason for the excitement I’ve been feeling.

I mentioned yesterday that I have been invited to the Preview Weekend. I’m pretty happy about that because I’ll get to experience what everyone else has been involved with for the last six months. I’ve got a birthday dinner for friends on Saturday night, a dual combined level 40 celebration in fact, but other than that I’m clearing my slate.

I’ve now downloaded the beta client, but I can’t patch it yet. I expect that the patching will be available when the preview goes live. Although I really do hope that the update will be available a day or so before the preview. I’d like to get that out the way before the weekend starts.

So, you should expect a lot of Warhammer Online talk on this blog for the next few weeks, and probably for a while after that too. But I will post about other MMOG topics as well. Just because WAR is coming doesn’t mean that there are a lot of other topics to consider as well.
