From what I saw from other players, and their reactions in-game...it was just to hard for the normal WoW player - gear did not matter as much as skill or tactics in PvP.
You could tell the WoW players but the constant jumping and running around you in circles.
In WAR, you stand still and beat them down ( your character auto looks at thier target...) while they miss while jumping ( jumping disrupts abilities )
Soo many of them left cos there great WoW skills were so useless.
I must admit i converted to warmachine a long time ago ( and Iron Kingdoms is now my RPG groups play of choice ). The BIG BIG Difference - they like Fan based items and actually SUPPORT them on THEIR website.
like most old timers I drop GW when White Dwarf went bad and you had to by the new mini to match the new books....
Hopefully they will die off soon, or grow up and realise the only bankable thing there IP owns is the FANS
The MAJOR point should also be that australia has more ads per show than ANY country on the planet..
HEROES was almost 2 hours long for the first ep when it aired here (seriously 1min view for 1 min ad)
We are, on average, at 20 minutes of ads per hour. (its sweden or norway next on the list at 17min)
Also for all of us SCIFI watches - BSG, Stargate, Trek, DrWho etc, we want to watch it as it is released as well read the forums etc.
Also in the 90's - did you know that they SPED UP the shows so that a 44minute show ran for 43minutes? Yeap - another minute of ads there. (channel 9 was the main user of this)And that was when they didn't choose to edit Star Trek:Next Gen to fit more ads in..(yeap that's right they cut whole scenes out!)
Another example was with the Muscial Buffy Episode - they sped it up slightly (shown on channel 7) so it was a bit out of key - My Wife was soooo pissed, but loved me for my DVD copy i had got earlier (was first getting tapes sent from the states then dvds - love my mates)
and all this quickly from memory while at work........
