Hail!<\/p>\n
Everyone here at Mythic would like to wish you a wonderful holiday season, filled with the things that make this time of year extra special – and by special we mean the taste of beer, the sounds of battle, and the sight of your enemies weeping on the forums!<\/p>\n
That\u2019s right, Keg End<\/a> is upon us once again, and whether you are a grizzled veteran, a raw recruit, or someone who has been following the action from the sidelines, there has never been a better time to play WAR.\u00a0 Before we head off to battle seeking our own personal keg-toting servant to help us ring in the New Year, take a seat and share some brew with this grizzled old veteran for a moment as we reflect on the year now behind us.<\/p>\n It truly is the Age of Reckoning and the past year has been filled with amazing Live Events, awesome new dungeons, scenarios, and new zones, with grim new foes and fantastic rewards to earn.\u00a0 We have survived the Night of Murder and seen the arrival of the bitterest of rivals, the Slayer and the Choppa.\u00a0 We have seen the portents and events surrounding the Rise of the Tomb Kings and the expedition to the Land of the Dead. We have witnessed the Demon Moon Rising, and partaken in the ancient and challenging Wild Hunt.<\/p>\n In the past year, the Realm versus Realm war has also seen significant action and change: Zone Domination, the Keep Upgrade Ordnance systems, RvR Quartermasters, two-ramp Keeps, City Invasion improvements, a Keep Rating System, the WAR Report, and the recent Realm Underdog System.\u00a0 Countless other changes too numerous to cover have also elevated the RvR experience from good to incredible, not the least of which are significant performance and stability gains.<\/p>\n A toast for stability!<\/p>\n While lowering the bar to enable computers to run higher graphics settings, we also improved the game\u2019s look with HDR and bloom.\u00a0 Suffice it to say, the RvR battles of this winter season are more engaging, more visceral, and more fun than anything else out there. Raise a toast to the veterans here, they know what I mean!<\/p>\n Since we consider WAR to be the best-in-class RvR experience and we wanted to share it with everyone. Thus we\u2019ve launched a Macintosh Version, brought WAR to our Russian friends, and unleashed the mighty WAAAGH! in Taiwan.\u00a0 We also launched our Free Endless Trial<\/a>, complete with a streaming client, so fresh meat, err, new players can play forever (for free!) and bolster the ranks of our armies.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s a toast to the fresh meat!<\/p>\n Looking back at past accomplishments is all well and good, but we\u2019re not resting on our bloodied laurels here in the land of WAR! Next year is going to be an exciting one, and I am looking forward to sharing more of our plans during the frigid days and long winter nights of January.\u00a0 We\u2019ll have exciting new Live Events, new weapons and cloaks earned by spilling the blood of your enemies in RvR, a new Scenario structure, economy and loot drop improvements, adjustments to the King and Warlord encounters to convert them to RvR-only battles, UI customization enhancements, Tier 4 RvR campaign improvements, daily quests and so much more –\u00a0 and that\u2019s just our near term plans for 2010.<\/p>\n Farther into the year we\u2019ll see\u2026oh but you\u2019ve heard me ramble enough! It\u2019s time for that drink, battle, and crying enemies!<\/p>\n Happy Holidays and we\u2019ll see you on the battlefield!<\/p>\n Bruce Maclean, WAR Live Producer<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Warhammer Online’s latest Developer Letter has been released.
