IainC, Magnus we need some answers !

1) Item linking. Heck, this was even in DaoC - why oh why is this function not available ? It truly sucks. It really lets down an otherwise excellent UI.

2) Cloaks - any specific reason why ( all the ones I have used so far) have zero colour ( ie an off whilte colour) and cannot by dyed ?

3) Quests - all lovely n all that. But Why oh Why give us access to 1000s of quests if the "quest log" can only take is it 20 ? Would it Reeeally be that difficult to give each "zone" ( dwarf/empire/elf) its own quest page ?( ie where the quest started)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

If anyone else can think of any omissions/bad design - im not talking bugs and glitches here - they can be fixed.

I think item linking is one of the most obvious/useful that's been missed. It's very manual to show your guild mates what shiny items you've found at the moment.

My level 9 Witch Hunter has a cloak which I got from the librarians in Altdorf after killing a Treant :p

Search for Spring or something on wardb.com and you can go to comments and learn how to get it. Not very hard.

Oh, and it's awsome, different dark-blue'ish colors with roman numbers at the bottom and a "emblem" of a phoenix or something in the middle.

I am really missing autoloot or the old H+G spam to pick up the loot. Such a pain in the arse to right click on everything and when we do big pulls a lot of the item sparkles can't be picked up.

Shift-click loots all on the body.

I really miss a global channel of sorts. With no official forums and only area-wide chat (which no one knows how to access unless they've played WoW), it's hard getting the community to flourish.

I also miss an ingame clock and latency/fps meter.

Curse.com add-ons do almost most of the things mentioned above, apart from item linking of course :<

Hahahaha... no comment.

There should be random and team scenarios.
Auto-looting is missing.
UI is really lacking, Mxn-style group bars would be nice.
Estimated time until scenario comes up would be nice.
Generally I find the whole of PvE quite boring so far, the quests are so bloody linear, the public quests seem always to have the same style, kill x mobs, kill x champs, kill x heroes. At least one gets to see some of the world and one can get the exp from PvP :).
High Elves are a joke.

No autoloot option is a bit odd.

Estimated time till a scenario is impossible, you can't predict when enough players will have joined the queue.

PvE is much the same as any other mmorpg, but then Warhammer is more about pvp. To my mind pve is more of an optional extra. That being said there are tons of things to find and places to explore, loads of hidden areas etc. Found several areas that I haven't figured out just yet.

Never understood the skirt :)

How do I activate my Death Knight slot?

<runs away>


press [Delete] then type YES, exit game, find the folder where the game is installed, click one time and then hit the Delete button, right click on papercan and select empty.

there you have your own DK!

Member and officer notes in guild roster.

Maybe not the most missed in the game, but still cant figure out why it was in the beta and not release.
