Warhammer Online Goes Gold

With the September 18 launch for Mythic's Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning now set in stone, publisher and studio owners Electronic Arts today announced the PC MMO has gone gold and entered the manufacturing process.

The MMO has recently become the latest subject in the industry-wide crediting controversy, as past Mythic staff members will not be recognized for their contributions.

In advance of the game's retail release, pre-order customers will gain access to an open beta beginning September 7. Until then, check out the latest CG trailer

I am ready for this to come out so some people will stop making rash generalizations about this game.

Until you either read more about the game mechanics or try it for yourself, you have no idea how different this game feels to play from other MMORPGs out there.

  I'm a Closed Elder Tester and I say the game mechanics are very similar to WoW no matter how you look at it. From the grudge system to the bloodlust points... it's all similar to how WoW is played. This is a good thing for the game in general to attract players but for me, a veteran MMO seeking something new, I was more impressed by AoC's gameplay mechanics (although the game still sucked).
