Welcome to the first edition of the Warhammer Online Grab Bag, where your friendly neighborhood community manager will answer the most popular, and most interesting, questions in a new regular feature. Many things aren't yet certain, so try to be patient with us. Trust me - we're as eager as you are to see the features finalized, so that we can hear what you've got to say.
A: This was the number one question from you this month, and I can now read it in five languages. From the lead designer, Big Steve: "Empire/Human, High Elves, Dark Elves, Dwarfs, Orcs, Goblins, Chaos Humans." For all the information we have available, check out our previous newsletters and the Warhammer Online website.
A: Some information is available in the backstory we've already released - but Big Steve wanted to make sure that you knew that this early in development, there might still be changes.
A: And this was easily the second most popular question. The answer is simply that we're none of the above. This answer comes to you from our lead writer, one of Mythic's many Matts - Matt Daniels: "The Age of Reckoning is set in the "modern" Warhammer world. This is the world in which Karl Franz is the Emperor in Altdorf, Finubar sits upon the Phoenix Throne, and the High King of the Dwarfs is Thorgrim Grudgebearer. That's as specific as we’re going to get, in order to allow ourselves the maximum creative flexibility in developing the game."
A: Some of our most rabid... er, important and vocal... Warhammer Online players live in Europe and around the world, and we want to make sure we treat them right. We have plans in the works, and details are being finalized as we speak. Keep an eye out for future newsletters.
A: I never say never - but we will only launch WAR on the PC.
A: We're shooting for a Teen rating.
Sure, this Q&A was awfully short - but it's only the first edition. This is your feature, and it all depends on you. Check out the feedback form and send your questions now. We may not be able to answer them all, but we'll read every single one. See you soon.
