Mythic is out to get me! O.o
Today, I received my Collector’s Edition of Warhammer Online. Starting off my very first real WAR subscription.
Everything is going really well. My mom also bought the CE because we tend to play together (she’s disabled so its my way of helping keep her sane and interacting with people ‘cuz she can’t leave the house often). Upon activating our accounts we have to download the full client. Because of some error she has to restart her download three or four times. I never had to restart my download. Guess who finished first? Her. By how much? Over an hour and a half before me who started first with no errors. Go figure. It gets better.
We finally get in-game and my client errors out at the server select screen. No biggy. I log back in. We start playing. In the Dwarf starting area we have to do a quest that has a chance of spawning a bad guy. She does 3/4 crates without a spawn. Me? EVERY SINGLE CRATE.
The final proof Mythic Entertainment was out to get me today came about 15 minutes after that quest. One quest involves using cannons to fire across a chasm at some greenskins (orcs/goblins/trolls). I start happily annhilating the NPCs who are incapable of crossing the massive chasm and by no means are intended to attack you. At least that was the idea. Within seconds of firing my first volleys my screen starts flashing red indicating I’m being attacked. I finish annihilating the green menaces across the way and then release the cannon to find a goblin smacking at me. I target the guy and try to attack: “Invalid Target” spams across my screen. What? Here this little green snot is beating on me and I can do nothing to defend myself. I run around hoping to lose him and he keeps following me. HE WON’T LEAVE ME ALONE! My health reaches a point where I need a heal. My mom being a rune priest heals me and finally her heal aggro pulls the mob onto her. Within a matter of seconds she’s able to convince the mob to turn around and leave us alone. Go figure.
Warhammer Online: Collector’s Edition
The CE is awesome. If you use the link above you can get it from Amazon for like $13.95 USD (it includes a free month too). The box was BIG and HEAVY for a video game box. It includes a graphic novel (i.e., lengthy comic) and a book with artwork from the game (both in hard back, both in a collector’s box). You also get some nifty additions to your characters that are CE only.
