ORIGINAL: Krasny Veldor, I don't believe you preordered a MMO. You will be paying to beta test the thing. I'm assuming your attempting to be humorous here.. MMO's are never finished so looked at that way even a year later its "still in beta". One could say the same thing about virtually every Matrix Game too. For that matter pretty much any PC Game period. For my part the only place where that rule doesn't really apply is console gaming, which in part is why its probably so popular... But there again one of the biggest reasons is the locked down hardware "profile". From an official stance, the beta is over (both closed and open) in approx 30 days, and Amazon doesn't charge my card until the final non-beta product ships. The Warhammer MMO has been in production the longest of any MMO ever and is being made by a company with a good track record. Most "leaked" beta reports are also very favorable. Much unlike pretty much all the recent MMOs (Age of Conan, Vanguard, etc.). And given that I personally find plenty to like about both of those, there is really nothing anyone can say that will stop me from trying Warhammer. Its really about whether your a glass half-empty or glass half-full type. If your looking for something to complain about or some missing content to get all up in arms about... Well I guarantee you'll find it, again like any MMO. Not being humourous in the least. It's true MMOs are never finished in that content and patches are added as time goes by, but in the first few months of a MMO tend to be a chaotic mess, with half the content missing or broken and the gameplay a laggy suckfest. So yeah, if this your idea of a complete game, then I stand corrected, however since the game doesn't do what it says on the tin, most reasonable people would call it 'paying to beta.' Most MMO players are very optimistic about future games. This optimism has absolutly no basis in reality, and is bordering on the delusional. Still saying that I would welcome some feedback on WAR.
