I don't know about this subreddit, but there is still a decent amount of players and quite a lot of them kept playing after the release of Tier 2.

holy hell its still not shut down by a C&D. I MAY DL finally, didn't want to go thru the heartbreak of losing the game a second time.

That's pretty interesting that they're doing this, but i wonder why you'd want to recreate the game as is? There was a reason it died - it had big big problems. I was a fan of this in the earlier days but was frustrated by the overall design, specifically how it subjugated the players into different zones/areas, and then later on how you'd get these massive zergs avoiding each other with very little real combat. There was so much potential but it was so unrealised and never improved - imo.
I am also aware there were still a number of players who loved it, I could never understand what they saw in it to keep them going.
The other thing that frustrated me were all the awesome locations in the game that were hardly ever used - all these amazing smaller keeps in the lower/middle tiers that would have been so awesome had combat actually occured there. One thing this game did so well was create good places to fight, but i can count on my hands and toes how often i actually fought in most of them - in a lot of cases only one hand is enough.

Kind of hard to make adjustments to things that aren't working at all. I think the goal is to get it back to something resembling the norm in T4 before really mucking with the RvR system.

Im pretty sure they want to make game working and playable first, and then there's a big chance they will make some actual patches.

Get a different IP address. r/VPN might help

Is achievements / titles working? Really enjoyed running around and doing the small quests / easter eggs that give you a title / achievement.

Really awesome work! Big RvR Zergs. Because its only one server there is always a Scenario popping or RvR action going on.
Loving it! But i loved it back then too so i am a bit biased.
Hope you resolve the ongoing DDOS soon.

Anyone have a summary for the ignorant?
Summary of what? Just in general for the project?
Pretty much. I have no idea what I'm looking at here.
Warhammer Online was a Mythic/EA game released in 2008 and shutdown in 2013. The project has been rebuilding it for a couple years now. 100% volunteer work, no money being made or cost to the players, just a labor of love for the game. Each Tier is another set of zones and a new level cap, with new abilities, items, and areas to fight over.
Thank you! was wondering what i was looking at
