Succeeding in WAR means knowing how to equip yourself for a fight. In recent patches, a ton of new weapons have been added to the game. To help find the right fit, I made a new item database called the Arsenal of WAR.
The Dressed to Kill contest ends tomorrow morning! Be sure to get your screenshots in. There have been some really nice submissions so far. I am still working out how to show them all off and get them judged, more info on that later this week.
The last couple of weeks have been filled with RvR Pack news from gaming events in Cologne and Baltimore. While we did get some good information from the attendees, Mythic wanted to take a more direct route with their players. Andy, community manager, started up a Q&A thread on the forums.
After a short vacation, the News from the Front has returned! You guys may have missed it, but Mythic announced the RvR Pack. Next time I'll try to cover it more. The 1.3.6 patch has been overshadowed by the Pack news, but has been a lot of fun. It just might be the best Warhammer Online patch yet. On to the community news.
I'm starting to run out of titles for these posts. Yesterday saw some interesting news for Warhammer's RvR Pack. Nothing too exact, but it definitely gives us an idea of what to expect, especially when it comes to Skaven. Read on for the details.
One of the lesser known features of Warhammer's 1.3.6 patch is the addition of several new emotes. They don't have animations but are fun none the less. I put together a list all of the emotes in Warhammer Online, including the new ones. You can find it after the break.
A new interview is up from Gamescom. This one comes to us from WAR-Welten and is a 30 minute video. It is in English, so be sure to watch it. It's a great way to slack err... spend your lunch hour. I did pick out some of the interesting bits, read them after the jump.
Now that we are not at the mercy of our loot, we can start looking somewhat decent. The appearance system, introduced in 1.3.6, allows for lot more customization. To celebrate, it is time for a contest! Yep, win stuff just for looking good. Read on for the details.
Did you think the Warhammer Online news was over? Not quite yet. We'll be getting more news as attendees get their articles up. I'm not expecting any great revelations, but the picture of the RvR Pack should become a bit more clear.
With Gamescom and Gamesday Baltimore complete, it's now time to reflect on what we've heard. The reaction from the community has been mixed, which is not surprising. I'm actually torn about the announcement of the RvR Pack.
