Warhammer Online players who want a preview of things to come will want to log into the public test server (PTS). There are several significant changes coming in the next patch including:

• Fashion visibility: Players will be able to toggle which clothing items show and which should be considered 'equipped' for stats. No need to sacrifice looking good for maximum protection.
• Sovereign Armor sets have been redesigned and Split armor sets have been introduced. Each career will have multiple armor options available.
• Scaling bonus, Against All Odds, introduced. This is implemented when one's realm is outnumbered.

Of course a PTS phase wouldn’t be complete without our signature developer lead focused tests and Q&A sessions! Join the WAR Development team, Friday, July  30th at 4:00 PM EDT/22:00 CET, for a Q&A session to be followed up by our normal PTS Stability test (with a special twist!) at 8:00 PM EDT/02:00 CET.

We’ll be doing it one more time on Friday, August 6th at 8:00 PM EDT/02:00 CET as we take to the RvR Lakes to test out the all new “Against All Odds” system with a Developer Q&A following the test.  

Read the full patch note on the official site.

We’re excited to welcome our European community and hope that you’re More >

Warhammer Online producer, Carrie Gouskos, has penned the latest letter outlining the updates coming down the pipe in the near future. At the same time, Gouskos acknowledges players' need to hear more about long term plans for the game.

Through these communications I’ve emphasized how we listen to the community and take your feedback seriously while planning the future of WAR. For the most part, the “P-Letter” (as I like to call it) is intended to be a short term look at the next version or two,  giving you a look forward at the months to come. However, it’s very clear that there is a lot of desire to hear about long term planning. We hear these requests loud and clear, and it is our desire to give you a better sense of WAR’s long term plan by the end of summer. Our detractors like to make fun of us for “being really excited” and “itching to tell you about” some “really cool things” (yes, we read the snarky posts), and in this case we want to shout it from the rooftops…but not just yet.

Gouskos takes a look at the latest v1.3.6 including RVR, incentivizing city armors and appearance slots.
