Seriously?  Removing two tank classes?  And four capital cities?

(EA announces 4 capitals and two tank classes as pay-per-DLC in 3..2..)

4 out of 6.  That is not a minor cut.

The capital cities are better thought of in pairs, due to the nature of the RVR endgame. I can sort of understand where they're coming from, having seen Altdorf and The Inevitable City myself, they really are something to behold compared to cities in other MMOs, and the idea of focusing the community toward one pairing at the beginning isn't out of line at all.

The classes on the other hand are bit bit more serious. At the most immediate level, there are a lot of people who had already chosen which class they wanted to play, and most of the ones I know wanted to be a Choppa (Greenskins without melee DPS is definitely unfortunate). The reasons they give are understandable, but it's still very disappointing.

This takes me from not giving a shit about WAR (due to hating RvR and having no preexisting interest in the Warhammer IP) to having something additional to mock.

I trust the Warhammer boys to actually deliver on future promises of "here's some amazing new cities to ransack and siege and awesome new classes that are completely unique."

But it still bugs me that such a bomb shell lands when we're facing the Lich King.

Both you AND the link spelled Apocalyptic wrong in different ways.

Normally I don't :thad: but that is remarkable.

Huh.  I wonder if the fact that the Aero is spitting distance away from me is enough to make up for the fact that I don't like Wizards that much.

Wizards is not really a film to like or dislike... more like  :painful: or :perfect:

The rumor right now, regarding the capital cities in WAR, is that all of them will be in the game, but not all of them will be able to be attacked. That sounds back, but you have to remember that city siege is the endgame here, so if this actually is the case it seems to me to be a perfectly acceptable state of affairs.

Thankfully you're not the kind of guy to make a big deal out of minor typos or anything.

So much for that.

Well... maybe Blizzard will hire them back to help with Diablo III.

GP: Judge Tunis recommends permanent disbarment for you-know-who.

More testimony from the bar trial.  I still want to dramatize this.

Thank god, justice is served.  Still can't believe I shelled out money for that piece of junk.

This is some supremely good timing.

Just a note; if the article is telling the truth, Flagship was offered the option to stay afloat by their business partners, and chose to close their doors anyway. Think maybe Roper got a better offer? I wouldn't exactly be shocked if Blizzard had been sniping back former blizzard north people for months.

Barring that, FUCK do they have bad luck with their IP. They should just give up at this point on developing original content.
