Default WoW vs. WAR

This is the first match of MMORPG Showdown 3. Although the match will be officially be decided in the Review Directory again, this forum battle will be for extra comments and will serve as a tie breaker if one is needed for the match.



vs.

WoW and WAR are both great. The cool thing is that each one complements the other one. For example, if you like PvE or soloing choose WoW. On the other side, WAR is mostly about PvP so pick WAR if you love killing other players more than killing monsters or crafting.

Although WAR does bring in some new ideas, I think World of Warcraft is still the best P2P MMORPG. What happens when World of Warcraft starts using WAR's ideas? I already see that WoW has a new achievement sytem.

WAR started the new ideas so if WoW uses them it wont matter imo.

Why not? Won't WoW still benefit from the new ideas or do u think using those ideas first makes WAR better than WoW?

WoW will benefit but because WAR did it first it will be better. WoW hasn't come up with anything new (excluding the expansion pack) in a while.

I wish this counted instead of the reviews because Warhammer is winning this, but losing in reviews. I agree with Aaddron. WAR came up withy with these new ideas while Wow has rested on its fat laurels for some time. I think its time a game with fresh ideas knocked WoW from its pedastel.

WoW overdoes the nerf bat. Just look at the patch today. WoW finally has the big WoLK patch last month, but it just got nerfed today. Why add all that content if you are only going to nerf it in less than a month. Its stupid@! Warhammer is brand new but it hasnt brought out the nerf bat that strong yet.

As I mentioned in my reviews, Warhammer is a far superior MMORPG if you compare PvP. In War, the entire game is wrapped around PvP in a tight little package. The atmosphere feels like you are in the middle of a war. Quests are aimed at war instead of just being mindless like most of WoWs. Pvp in WoW? You go into a battle ground for metals and have to listen to people whine and try to be general. Its painful!

World of Warcraft vs. Warhammer Online? Warhammer Online will win eventually.
