Warhammer Online

ah... but will there be targetting capability.. and can you run it in windowed mode?

[Contents]

In regards to a few things:

I'm positive that WAR will have a customizable UI. Even DAoC had that, even though it wasn't quite as simple to setup as WoW is.

And as far as nerfs, Ugh I don't want to hear it... I played a scout from day 1. I went from one-shotting anybody to having a chance to impale myself (slightly exaggerated, but still...)

Now if anybody knows of a way for me to sneak into the beta...

[MrLonghair]

Try doing a preorder of the CE if it's not too late, suposedly you'll get three beta entry codes out of that. If I only get one preorder of the CE I'll be using my three

WAR's got LUA going on, targetting yes, everything you need for multiboxing, but I don't know about windowed action. Hopefully though..

Or working with ATIs 3D acceleration with multiple monitors properly so I can dual monitor dualbox at full framerate. Something happened that made WoW a choppy (not performance-wise) experience when using two monitors

[MrLonghair]

If someone is in the EU beta english server, I suggest /chan join multiboxing if on destruction side, /chan join multiboxing2 on order side. Respect the NDA and lets keep all the stuff in there until the NDA is torn up later this year. Need some people to theorycraft and try things with.

I've got a Pre order, and I wish you luck to get one so we could start together , Hope to come into Closed to get expierence because I don't know which class especially which side to chose.

Warriorpriest/Witchhunter (this is one I first hated)
Engineer? Or these Emo darkelves I mean these with this Armor that's going into the the Face like it's going to be devoured by evil power or something, that looks cool, and they are healers ,too. Disciple of Khaine (?).

And the more I read about it (and watch...watched all Podcasts about 100 times) the more I wanna test things. I could Imagine to only Dualbox it and Quit WoW for it, because it's boring me for some reason.

Hope the Crafting system is gonna be cool I'm more addicted to it, then WoW for 4 Years or so.

ARGH , CAN'T WAIT FOR IT ...

btw, got no Beta keys, only one for the open beta , and starting before other people start.

That pre-order thing is sweet. I'm not going to break any NDA so here's what I've got from official material and wrote a while back:

Ranged classes will be The Thing, doesn't look like there are any AEs or things that require mouse-targetting (various videos), even engineer grenades (gamespot videos), you just point, assist and click and the multiboxed folks all throw their grenades, so that's sweet. Squig Hunter and Engineer have a five feet minimum range, whereas the casters do not. They might be a tiny bit more squishy though

As for chosing your career; (cut and paste this for people who cant decide elsewhere)

Once you enter beta or retail with a mind full of indecisions, get a regular six sided die:
-
A) Faction
1,2,3 - Destruction
4,5,6 - Order
-
B) Race
1,2 - Dwarf/Greenskin
3,4 - Empire/Chaos
5,6 - High Elf/Dark Elf
-
C) Career
1 - Career 1
2 - Career 2
3 - Career 3
4 - Career 4
5,6 - Roll again

Haha, that's a nice Idea, but then I get something I'm not really addicted to .. that's going to be really annoying I prefer a healer(because I love healing, and the style of healing in this game sounds to me most interesting. Like the shaman, if he casts nukes his healing spells get stronger), so I only had to choose the Race which healer I'm going to play , guess I roll only once to get the race But this Idea sounds really cool, That's so easy, I would have never figured it out for myself.

*cry* I wanna play it ...

So theres someone that could tell me if theres a class that can dot and cast spells? I'm really looking for a class similar to a Warlock

I think that's like most casters including healers. Try the videos on Curse, they're from really old versions of the game shown at meetings but still give a good idea of how the action works
