400,000 plus lost subscribers in less than a years time.The imbalances were just a figment of our imagination,yeah right.Hey Paul, hows that big friggin foot taste?

[wufuhimself]

he is absolutely right. when people are succeeding, they give all the credit to themselves. when they are losing, they blame it on something that must be wrong with the game or the other player or their class, and not them.

I just had to watch this again, I remember this so clearly. I think this is just before they made Bright Wizards AoE stackable, as if they weren't ridiculously OP already.

Mythic aren't really the ones responsible, though. It was EA who rushed the game and then fired most of the staff and restricted their budget. Paul was probably just trying to cover it up.

Some epic moments I get to keep as memories though. Fun while it lasted.

R.I.P. Warhammer Online, another "EA".

What's wrong with marauders? I've played one as my main since beta and never had any problems.

What the fuck is wrong with the people in the comment section of this video? The class balance in this game has been much better than in any other MMO I've played since day 1. My main is a marauder and i've got alts of each other career as well, and they really are all competetive in RvR.

And I think Mythic have done a great job and are one of the few companies that actually listen to their players. There are only a few things in WAR that need fixing really imo.

I love this game. Been playing since beta. The problem isn't with the game, but the people that play mmo's. The biggest group of whiners/complainers of any genre. MMO subscription numbers fluctuate, it's normal. Just watch Aion lose more than half it's numbers after the first 2 months. Maybe back up after a shiny new patch or expansion. Same story with the next "big thing". Just play the game, have fun, and don't take things too seriously.

Bright Wizard balancing? Failed so far. But I love the game and have tons of fun playing it, even though my Witch Elf toon is nerfed into the ground. The WAR rvr experience owns all, whether I'm underdog or not.

I think the next video of Paul Barnett should be him getting punched in the face.

[idinos]

Mythic developers are stupid twats. They run a shithole of a game that has lost 90%+ of its customers and still try to act as if they know better and that players are morons. Fuck them.

[DoctorCataclysm]

Exactly, when all of the forums (except a few idiots) recognize that there are problems with balance and careers and all Mythic can reply with is "L2P", there's a problem.

[cursedlion]

i play since beta and i play only one class.

i can assure you if they take randomly 6 players from any of the two realms that are actually mature and love the game they would actually balance it within the next pach.

those guys all they do is hide their mistakes behind the whine of inmature children that turn them back as a cover seriously FU mythic if i wasnt a warhammer fun i would so stop playing

rr76 SH of K8Ps and now on norn.

Wait are people giving him gip for talking sense??? IMHO I think he's right

Wow... I must be playing a different game. (btw I've played a Shadow Warrior since beta, it ain't to bad, most of my comment/suggestions in terms of problems are normally fixed within a patch (abilities not working etc etc, graphics bugging at this point etc) So yer, balance in a team game where rarely things are equal is a tricky thing to judge. One person can make the difference in a combat.
