Do you know how hard it is to get into beta for warhammer? I do QC for EA for one of their console games, they outsource to us and I make sure people are doing
their jobs right. They wouldn't give anyone here a beta pass to Warhammer, they did give us a 360 for the breakroom and they ship a box of games to us
every couple of months to give to the agents, so I can deal with that.

Well, just got back from the mall. Pre-ordered the collectors edition. I don't care if its a rip-off of WoW, it looks a hell of a lot more fun.

WAR is reminiscent of WoW more because WoW's setting was a complete rip-off of Warhammer than due to any gameplay factor I've noticed.

Yes we all know wow is a rip off of Warhammer. I wasn't referring to that.
I was talking about the UI. Its identical. In the end nothing is original. Tolkien stole his ideas from mythology. Gygax stole his ideas from Tolkien. War stole its shit from Gygax. Wow stole its shit from war. It never ends. people just need to except the fact that all original ideas have been used and that everyone will just steal ideas from otgher from here out. TV and movies are another prime example. Wether you agree with the above is not the point. I was just making a point on the UI being exactly the same and the gamplay ( shown in the trailer ) was the same.

Heh, Zara, those are not trailer videos. Those are closed beta videos that are not meant for public eyes because the beta is still under NDA

The topic, the rest of the post, and the voice chat on the video all gave away that it wasn't "official" what's your point, Zaramus?We have to have a point around here? It was just a rebutal to Soy's pointing of out the ripoff, which seems to be what a lot of people say about WoW being a rip off of Warhammer.

If anything, Gygax "Stole" the idea for the game from various military leaders throughout history. Lord of the Rings helped only in the selling of the game, it had nothing to do with its inspiration. |

I like all the Warcraft games, but Warhammer has been doing the Orcs, Dwarves, steampunk thing long before Blizzard existed. ;) A lot of people say it, because it's true.

genre and a similar setting. There's no need to reinvent the wheel.

Really varies widely from beta to beta. You could say you were in WoW beta and even talk about specific gameplay details if you wanted.

one of the convos I had about sigil's NDA
============================= silky venom guy: Hey, just wanted to drop you a line real quick. I noticed that your prexus forums has a Vanguard section now. silky venom guy: very cool. silky venom guy: I quit that long long ago. silky venom guy: couldn't stand the way Sony was managing it. silky venom guy: anyway. Just thought I'd let you know that Sigil is taking a really hard line on NDA breaks for Vanguard. And you have one in that forum. ello: we do? ello: kk I'll take a look silky venom guy: yeah, Aammeryen posted that he's in beta. silky venom guy: In the 'Who applied for beta' thread. ello: so posting that you're in beta is against the NDA? silky venom guy: yup ello: kk silky venom guy: Just giving you a heads up because someone reported it in the forums on our site, and one of the forum members is almost assured to send it on to Sigil. ello: prexus forum got reported to another forum? silky venom guy: Yeah. There's a lot of hard feelings right now about who's getting beta invites (everyone thinks they should be in...). silky venom guy: So anyone talking about being in beta pretty much anywhere is getting put in the spotlight. silky venom guy: It was in a thread on Silkyvenom.com. ello: ahh ello: wasn't sure how serious it was since on the foh boards there was a guy who posted beta impressions silky venom guy: That's Oloh. He's been cleared by Brad McQuaid specifically to talk about beta. silky venom guy: He's Sigil's lawyer, and he's the guy who owns Silky Venom (where I'm a staffer). ello: ahh ello: cool ello: went ahead and deleted the post (idle chit chat here) silky venom guy: I just got a note asking me about the IP of Aameryen... silky venom guy: It was suggested that you email it to sigil so they can investigate the NDA break. silky venom guy: I don't know... seems kinda over the top to me but.... silky venom guy: the email to send it to would be michelle@sigilgames.com silky venom guy: honestly, I wouldn't bother. If Sigil is interested enough, they'll contact you. silky venom guy: and it's not like the break was much of anything. silky venom guy: I know there have been breaks exactly like that on our forums. And the user actually contacted Sigil saying oops. Sigil's response was "Thanks for your honesty, honest mistake, enjoy the beta": ello: if sigil contacts me, I'll take it from there ============================ and no I didn't send the IP
