And, at last, we have a Warhammer Online guild. Server – Karak-Hirn (EU), side – Destruction, name – Rock Paper Snotling. Yes. Yes!
In terms of joining, in the short term look out for one of these players:
Loaf (me), Misada (Kieron), Pop, Ugegob, Xanthor, Jeevaargh, Yarisse or Hansibo. Drop one of ‘em a line (saying you want to be in the guild, rather than a vague ‘hello”) and we should be able to get you in. Please do it in-game rather than in comments below, as we won’t necessarily notice otherwise.
More details as we creep closer to having some kind of plan. Sorting out the order Guild is going to be trickier. Any volunteers to handle it?
EDIT: Our friend Schizoslayer is going to try and set up the Order guild at 9:30 or so on Karak Eight Peaks. That means starting to queue now. The contact is Edgald. Just message him whenever you get in. Ah, ended up a bust.
Additionally, we can’t access the US servers, but are more than happy for some of you to found the American branch of Rock Paper Snotling on our behalf.
17/09/2008 at 14:28 Gladman says:
PLAY.COM DIDN’T GIVE ME AN EARLY ACCESS CODE
What’s the guild name?
17/09/2008 at 14:51 darkripper says:
Thumbs up! Will join when the game will be released.
17/09/2008 at 14:56 mpk says:
Difficultderek will give someone a bell next time I’m ingame.
17/09/2008 at 15:02 schizoslayer says:
I’m happy to sort out the Order guild on 8-peaks tonight around 8ish.
Edgald is the name. Burning Heretics is me game!
17/09/2008 at 15:04 chesh says:
That name is just brilliant.
17/09/2008 at 15:12 Gladman says:
Oh I see, edit your post to make it look like im an idiot.
That’s a rather elaborate way to make a fool of someone who has commented nearly five times on your website don’t you think?
P.S
What’s the likeyhood of the guild filling up before the servers go live for us regular folk? Play.com delivered the disk a day early, but no code.
Cheers.
17/09/2008 at 15:13 Thesper says:
Aw yeah.
*Is smug about his guild-naming skills.*
17/09/2008 at 15:52 Rudolf says:
the english server names are hillarious, karak this karak that xD
so rock paper snotling will enforce the correct treatment of those little fellas?

GAME just dropped my copy of WAR through my mail slit; it’s a shame the headstart programme was only available from a select few places.
17/09/2008 at 15:58 Gladman says:
Lolololol “Mail slit”.
What time do servers go live and we’re allowed to register our codes?
17/09/2008 at 16:00 Katsumoto (jvgp100) says:
You will all have to let me know if the full launch tomorrow is a disaster – quite keen to play this but no point buying it until I know it’s stable. Will clearly be signing up to the guild asap!
Can’t wait to hear some more first impressions of the full release.
17/09/2008 at 16:05 Dan Milburn says:

8am CET.
17/09/2008 at 16:08 mpk says:
8am CET.
Good luck with that btw, the launch has been so easy so far :p
17/09/2008 at 16:13 Dan Milburn says:
I’m in the early access so yeah expect to spend a lot of time queueing tomorrow before you actually get to play..
Anyway, I would like to join the guild. Will try and log on in a bit.
17/09/2008 at 16:17 cullnean says:
ill give it a month or two to calmdown/inevitable patching
17/09/2008 at 16:36 Ophois says:
I’ll be on tonight (I think my character is called Sekhmet) and will try to get a message to one of you.
Quite excited really, I’ve never been in a guild from launch time (in fact I’ve only really been in one guild and it was tiny and didn’t last long). Being part of a much larger group should be interesting.
17/09/2008 at 16:37 Ketch says:
Unfortunately, I started my character on a roleplay server, I would have joined this one to be in the guild but I can’t stand all the retards it’ll likely contain “1 GOLD PLZ” etc.
Nothing against you guys!
17/09/2008 at 16:50 Jacques says:
Count me (Temper) in please.
17/09/2008 at 16:51 Kacz says:
Ordered it last night off of Amazon… still waiting for my early access code. Regardless, getting the game tomorrow.
Anyone interested in a US EST time zone guild?
17/09/2008 at 16:51 Gylfi says:
“Additionally, we can’t access the US servers, but are more than happy for some of you to found the American branch of Rock Paper Snotling on our behalf.”
I don’t get it, you bought the EU game version and expected to be able to log into the US servers?
17/09/2008 at 16:56 Jacques says:
Gylfi, I think they just mean that they can’t access the servers to create a guild, that’s all.
17/09/2008 at 17:10 Jeeva says:
So far, seems fun.
A scenario that a good proportion of guild at the time was in did have a slight problem, though. Otherwise, seems fairly bug free.
…on the other hand, the recent sign-ups were a bit of a travesty, so… =\ Good luck all those not already in!
I’ll see those who are online! ;)
Waaaaaaaaaaaaarrrgh!
17/09/2008 at 17:25 Erlam says:
Started up on Chaos Wastes as Destruction (Chosen named Asmodeus,) had quite a lot of fun last night. Did the PQ twice, but didn’t receive a single heal. Seems people are still working that process out ;)
I hear the Orc quests are some of the best ever in an MMO — how do I travel to there from the Chaos starting zone? Anyone know?
17/09/2008 at 17:29 Ansob. says:
Yeah; it’s not like games used to not be region-locked and work fine, eh? Heaven forbid allowing those of us who socialise beyond our borders to play with their friends.
17/09/2008 at 17:30 Jacques says:
Erlam, I was doing a PQ earlier in a group that had a few zealots, there was no healing to be had, even though I was tanking 3 champion mobs by myself.
17/09/2008 at 17:38 mpk says:

One of the joys of EVE is jumping into a random system to find that the local chat is in Cyrillic. It helps to keep space feeling huge. Babelfish chat is always good too.
17/09/2008 at 17:43 John P (Katsumoto) says:
I just hope the server doesn’t get full up by the time I eventually log on this weekend at some point ;) Hopefully they have enough to deal with demand
17/09/2008 at 18:02 Nullh says:
I’ve been impressed by the lack of game spoiling idiots so far. I’m sure they’ll come but at the minute things are quite on the eejit front.
Also, the queue for the server is already filling up.
17/09/2008 at 18:03 Nick says:
“I don’t get it, you bought the EU game version and expected to be able to log into the US servers?”
This is a trend that is starting to fuck me off greatly. It’s an online game, I have a few very close friends whom I have played online games with for nearly 10 years and yet if I want to play with them on any of the new MMOs I have to try and get a US copy or spoof the accounts guys somehow. What the fuck is the reason for that, cause there isn’t a good one.
17/09/2008 at 18:04 KindredPhantom says:
Why do they insist on region locking the game? What harm is it to open up the virtual borders?
17/09/2008 at 18:16 Gladman says:
Immense lag?

17/09/2008 at 18:23 Esha says:
I’ve been avoiding Karak Hirn of late due to the queues it had, and I’ve been playing around some other servers. I’m stoned tired right now though having been up since 4-5AM~ (hence the odd post I made in the Valve/Google thread, I’m sure my mind picks up some odd chemical imbalance when I’m sleep deprived, or perhaps that happens to everyone), so I might not hop on tonight but I’ll be on bright and early tomorrow to try and be the large and somewhat ugly
ducklingbirdOrc that catches the proverbial worm.Groo will be said Orc’s name. And you’d best prepare yourselves, I’ve been practicing my Greenskin accent… on many unfortunate people.
17/09/2008 at 18:40 cyrenic says:
@Erlam
Follow the main road down past the southern border of the starter zone. It will eventually lead you to the first chaos “warcamp”, and there’s a flight master there that will let you fly to the other race’s zones.

My copy of WAR then proceded to crash out on me when I tried to go back to full screen, but thats a trivial matter of a 25 minute wait to log back in :)
See you all soon.

Any preference for classes? I can’t decide what I want to play :o
17/09/2008 at 22:36 Thesper says:
Ranged dps (eg. sorceress) or any of the healing classes would be good, I reckon. I hear Shamans are fun to play, from open beta I know they’re certainly hard to kill!
17/09/2008 at 22:38 Noc says:
All I know is that we need a dispenser here.
17/09/2008 at 22:46 Morningoil says:
Okay. I’m in. I’m Frejya. I thought I’d try playing a healer (disciple of khaine but maybe i’ll try rolling a shaman later this week) for a change! We’ll see how it goes. Looking forward to chatting to you all :)
17/09/2008 at 23:29 Wurzel says:
Wanting to get in on this action, but am being failed by the difficulty of getting my copy of the game. I ordered from EA Store, and got my Product Key, but I can’t see any way of actually getting the game: the WAR website says my key is invalid and the EA Downloader app thing isn’t letting me download the game.
Anyone got any suggestions that can help?
17/09/2008 at 23:42 Butler` says:
You should be able to download the game from the website. If it isn’t working it’s probably a port issue.
17/09/2008 at 23:57 Wurzel says:
I’ve got the game in the download manager, but it’s not downloading, the “Start download” button is grey and unresponsive, and there’s no error messages. Pretty annoying.
EDIT: Also for some reason alongside the WAR download in the download manager there’s two downloads for a “Mercenaries Costume Pack Unlock Code”, which are also unresponsive. Ah well, using Steam in the future.
18/09/2008 at 02:59 Riotpoll says:
I’ll see how full the server is in a few weeks, as my character will be an alt. No internet for a couple of weeks starting Saturday though. *sad face*
Also, those with nvidia cards wanting to make the game prettier you can go on the nvidia control panel advanced settings and force the game to use AF and AA, huzzah!
18/09/2008 at 06:23 mpk says:
Wurzel, you’ll probably have to validate your product key on the War Europe website before it’ll allow your account to patch your install and play.

How come the Order guild creation ended up a bust?
I’ll create an Order alt to help create one tonight if you want.

18/09/2008 at 16:17 Ging says:
hmm, I appear to have forgotten the password to my account, which is odd in itself…
This is a situation made worse by goa closing account management for today, so I can’t even do something as sensible as password recovery… *sigh* I don’t really feel the need to have 2 separate WAR accounts, but I suppose I might have to.
18/09/2008 at 16:24 Katsumoto (jvgp100) says:
GOA have closed account management on the day of release? Ach. I get my copy tomorrow, hopefully I will actually be able to play tomorrow!
18/09/2008 at 19:28 Ging says:
They’re opening it again tomorrow – I just gave up waiting for the customer support to get back to me about password retrieval and made a new account…
Now I’m in the queue to get on the server with my shaman.

I timed out, so am back in the queue… I tried poking a couple of people to get into the guild, but I failed at getting people who are online :D
18/09/2008 at 21:19 Razerious says:
Well, I bought the game. Too bad I can’t play it because the European community site is a worthless piece of doggy poo. Here’s my problem:
I registered myself on that site over a year ago. My password either contained one or zero digits. Apparently they now require TWO digits.
So I type in my CD key on the registration page. Type in my regular password and hope for the best. Oops. It just tells me my password isn’t adhering to their ridiculous standard password formatting. Ah well, maybe I did sign up with two digits in my password after all. I’ll just try a few of my regular variations.
The problem now is that I don’t get immediate feedback telling me the password is wrong. I have to wait 3-4 minutes for an e-mail with a link. When I click that link I get to see what went wrong 3-4 minutes ago. Now that’s what I call intuitive.
That wouldn’t normally be a problem if their site worked like, oh, every other fucking site with user accounts I’ve been to. I’d just have to use the login fields and then get the site to reset or send me my password. Except. Except there is no login field. Well, there seems to be one, but it’s not active (not in any of my browsers, anyway). I’m not able to type anything in the fields.
So I tried making a new account. Nope. Couldn’t do that either. My e-mail address is already associated with another account. WAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!
Whoever made that website (GOA?) is clueless.
Sorry for the (badly written) rant. Just had to vent a bit.
Now the question is, do I wait for customer service to fix this, or do I register myself on yahoo mail or something just for this game?
18/09/2008 at 21:26 Ging says:
Razerious – as I said earlier, they’ve closed account management for today. They’re re-opening it tomorrow at some point.
18/09/2008 at 21:33 Razerious says:
Yeah, I saw that after my rage-induced rant was posted ;)
Made myself a yahoo mail account and registered a new account. Been waiting 5+ minutes now for the account activation email to arrive so I can register my key.
Have they said why they closed account management temporarily? What a mess…
18/09/2008 at 22:44 Razerious says:
Ouch. Quite the queue Karak-Hirn has built up

So. Is WAR a sounding success? I remember back in 2004/2005 WOW had queue lines too. I guess those will be gone in some time.
The launch smooth sailing so far?
19/09/2008 at 09:06 Jim Rossignol says:
The launch seems to be fairly messy. As of last night/this morning new EU players can’t sign up/log in at all.
19/09/2008 at 09:19 Plinglebob says:
I’m hopefully getting this for my Birthday later today or tomorrow so I’m just hoping its al sorted by then.
19/09/2008 at 09:42 Cataclysm says:
As far as WAR goes – its an awesome game. Great fun in PVP and has a very social/groupplay feeling about it. It lags a bit on my CPU and I’m still lovin’ it which is something.
The beta launch was a bit of a mess, but that was GOA’s fault and not really Mythics and the account management system being down on the day of the launch is also a ridiculous problem for anyone who didn’t have headstarts “Grace period”.
I’m not sure where the blame lies on that part.
19/09/2008 at 09:58 Okami says:
I wish I had problems logging on or getting the client to run. Instead, I can’t even install the frigging game. My shitty old DVD drive can’t handle 90 minutes of installing files and just stops working at some point during installation.
At least there was a step by step guide on the support page (on the US support page, mind you. GOA can’t seem to be bothered to compile a good help system) on how to install the game from your hard disk by creating new folders and copying the DVD contents in these folders.
Only problem is: It doesn’t work. At some point the installer asks for the second DVD (without giving you the opportunity to specify a path – great job on the installer guys!) and there the whole thing just stops. You can click “Retry” as much as you want, the installer can’t seem to find the second disk.
Ah well.. I just downloaded the beta client during the night. Maybe I’ll be able to play tonight. Though I wouldn’t count on it…
19/09/2008 at 10:49 Plum says:
I’ve been able to log in, but only during the early evening. If, god forbid, I try to change server after about 8pm then my client can no longer see the main server list and keeps bombing out with an “Unable to authorise” error.
The moral of the story – try to get in straight after work and then stay in!
I also find that I can’t play melee toons in PvP because the lag makes it impossible to hit anything – I don’t know if this is a general problem or is specific to my connection. Playing ranged or healers is doable though. Shame, I really wanted to be a Witch Hunter or Iron Breaker!
19/09/2008 at 11:22 Jockie says:
All the servers are down for maintenance today :(
I experienced a few hiccups with the game yesterday, random CTD’s and lock-ups but not the authentication/installation nightmares of some of you had, but when did an mmo ever launch that didn’t have a few first day issues.
I’ve had to forgo the RPS guild also due to the massive queues on that server, perhaps ill make an alt there when/if the queues calm down a little.
19/09/2008 at 14:25 Cataclysm says:
@Plum
I’m loving my Marauder at the moment and the only lag I get is from my CPU only being a 3700+ Single core.
Their minimum specs are pretty incorrect, I must say, but other than CPU lag, my game runs perfectly fine. (No internet lag is what I’m trying to say).
19/09/2008 at 14:32 ShaunCG says:
Looks like I got off easy, then – 90 minutes to install, 30 mins to give up on my old website account, make a new one and register the code, 30 minutes to patch, and 30 minutes to get through the Karak Hirn server queue. 3 hours isn’t so bad in retrospect! The game was fine once I was in, bar a hang at the end of the night when I was alt-tabbing in and out of the front end.
19/09/2008 at 15:41 Acosta says:
Well, everything up and running, I am going to test classes a little before sending my wave to you. With only a rank 2 character I have little to say except that levelling a tank the first levels is still as boring as in any other game and that I would like to have a gamma level option because everything is fairly dark for me. On the thumb up side, I love the writing and the Tome looks really, really interesing for lore nerds like me.

Hm, maybe I’m underspecced then. The melee is fine in PvE even when the FPS drops low – if it looks like I’m standing next to someone then I am. But in PvP, I’m constantly being told I’m out of range, even when it appears I’m standing right next to someone.
I’ll get it installed on my housemates ninja rig to test it for sure – same connection, kick ass hardware. I don’t need much excuse to upgrade my machine – it’s been a couple of years now!

My Warhammer gaming is sadly being ruined by audiodg.exe chewing up my CPU usage. There’s some problem with something. That’s about as specific as I can get.
I’ve tried disabling my Creative X-fi card and using the Realtek onboard soundcard instead, but that didn’t work. I’ve uninstalling everything that remotely resembles a sound driver, but it still chews up my system resources every two minutes.
Oh yeah, I’m on Vista. I’m considering installing Windows XP tomorrow…

21/09/2008 at 07:25 Dan Milburn says:
Is it too late to suggest that the Order guild be on a different server? Eight Peaks is the most overpopulated server, and the only one as far as I can see that has long queues on the Order side. I’ve started a character there but would prefer restarting to having to queue for all the servers I want to play on..
21/09/2008 at 08:53 wahwah says:
Eight Peaks is not so bad for the order side, I rarely have to wait longer than 8 minutes (Destruction is far more overpopulated)
Besides, sooner or later these queues have to get better… I hope
Now we just have to get the second guild started!
21/09/2008 at 15:28 Dan Milburn says:
The queue on Eight Peaks right now is about half an hour. It is one of only two English realms that have any queues whatsoever on the Order side. We have no idea if or when the queues might improve. Starting a new guild there seems crazy to me when there are 10 other realms we could be playing on without having to queue to get on.

Are there any further plans for a RPS Order Guild somewhere? I would have loved to have joined the RPS guild on Karak-Hirn, but I don’t fancy joining a server with 30+ minute queue times. ;_;
Also, aren’t Mythic/GOA missing a trick by not setting up more obvious and accessible forums for the game? I always thought the WoW forums were important in helping people to set up guilds and socialise. Well… that and whine endlessly.

Yeah, the lack of official forums is weird. The nearest thing I’ve found is http://www.warhammeralliance.com, where the whine level a few days after the game’s release is impressive even to someone who used to follow the official WoW forums. Oh, and they get the occasional post from a developer.
Also, since this hasn’t been mentioned here yet, there are now RPS guild forums at http://rps.justpowerdown.com/forum/. I may have to make a post about the Order guild there.

hmm 16 min queue now on Eight Peaks
I’d still prefer the Order guild on that server, that’s where my main is at =

I’ll bug the destro people again for an order guild, I’d like one on a server without queues so there’s a nice alternative to destro queues.

09/22 21:30 Cloning on Wednesday
We will be cloning some of our most populated servers on Wednesday. That is, we will create exact copies of these servers, allowing players, guilds and entire alliances not to start a new career, but to continue as if nothing has happened on the new server. Well, except server queues, that is… An hour ago, I announced that we’d be cloning the servers during tomorrow’s maintenance. This was originally the plan, as we felt that there was a sense of urgency in implementing this. However, in order to allow for our communities to get themselves organised, we opted to postpone the cloning until Wednesday.
The servers which will be cloned are as follow:
* Karak Eight Peaks > Tor Anroc
* Karak Azgal > Zhufbar
* Karak Hirn > Yvresse
* Eltharion > Tiranoc

Getting REALLY annoyed now that I can’t join Karak-Hirn. Waiting time is almost always around half an hour when I try to get on.

So which of the cloned servers will RPS be continuing on? Karak Hirn or Yvresse?
