A screw-up in EA’s Warhammer Online billing system has resulted in many players being charged upwards of 22 times for a one-month subscription, filling bank accounts with overdraft fees and the Warhammer forums with very angry players.
Because there are two sides to every conflict, Mythic and Games Workshop publishing arm The Black Library have released Forged By Chaos, a novel that explores the fragile, deadly alliance of the forces of Destruction.
With Electronic Arts cutting back in a major way, fans of Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning, Ultima Online and Dark Age of Camelot are justifiably concerned about rumoured layoffs at Mythic Entertainment, development home to those online multiplayer games.
EA’s Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning – a subscriber-based MMO – has gone completely free of charge, forever. Provided you don’t mind playing the trial version. Forever.
Forget that old 10-day timed trial nonsense. Warhammer Online’s new trial lets you play any of the game’s 24 careers as long as you like, with the new streaming client keeping things all speedy-like.
Mythic entertainment opens the world of Warhammer Online to a whole new group of players later this month, when the MAC version of the MMO goes live.
Massively-multiplayer RPG Warhammer Online just got a bit more Mac friendly, as Mythic announces the availability of the beta for the Mac version of the game.
Of all the packages I was actually looking forward to today, a human skull emblazoned with a secret code for an in-game Warhammer Online item was definitely not one of them.
