The beta for Warhammer Online is beginning to look a little
grim; with major content cutbacks that will affect the release I’m sure. This
month Warhammer online took out FOUR major cities and FOUR classes…
that is BIG. Warhammer Online is the upcoming major competitor for the
reigning champion of MMO’s, World of Warcraft and with a cut back this big it
is either a really really good thing or a really really bad thing. With Age of
Conan slowly (but trust me it’s not at all yet) falling off a bit, Warhammer
Online really needs to step it up and take advantage. The content cuts may be a
good thing; maybe the developers realized they need to focus their manpower on
a smaller amount of content, but at the same time that could be a bad sign…
that they cannot manage that much. Hopefully this will help a more polished
release. I don’t know, with that much content gone the game may be a little bare bones compared to what they have been promising.
I’m still not in the
beta yet, but hopefully I will be soon.
