Warhammer 40k: The MMORPG

Let’s talk about the past for a brief moment. World of Warcraft vs Warhammer. Remember that rivalry between players? So what happened?

Warhammer Online was sucessful enough to warrant the opening of more servers when it was released. It all happened very fast. They were not that fast when the servers needed an urgent merge to keep balance and healthy population among all servers. Anyway, a lot of things happened (I will not discuss any of these things) and the great people at Mythic found themselves in a lot of trouble. My question is: Is Vigil Games up to develop a different kind of MMO? From the looks of the trailer, it seems they are.

The trailer features units and armor that matches the tabletop game. The combat is something that is getting me excited. It looks a bit like Tabula’s system. I just hope is a more robust combat system if it’s going to be hybrid. If they go “pure FPS” controllers, I am happy too.



Here’s a better view of the image that I used in the headline:
