Argh, when is this NY Comic Con stuff going to stop coming in?! Still, Ten Ton Hammer has a great video of a WAR presentation with Hickman, Drescher, and Barnett. As noted by a Warhammer Alliance member Paul Barnett seems to be wearing some sweet WAR jeans (jealous much?).

Ten Ton Hammer has both the Moderator Q&A and Audience Q&A for the MMORPG Developer Panel at NY Comic Con. Whilst not directly related to WAR, it has the good ol’ Hickman in it, along with:

Some great content is still flowing in from Comic Con! But seriously, we just can’t get enough of these guys. Ten Ton Hammer’s Garret Fuller spent a few minutes with Paul Barnett, Jeff Hickman, and Josh Drescher and all their crazy antics just before Comic Con started. Kind of makes me want to get a real job…for a minute.

This is the first image I’ve seen of WAR’s booth at Comic Con, and sadly it’s the only one this site posted, nevertheless lets all bask in its glory as it does look like a pretty sweet booth.
I found this image at Newsarama.com and there are some other great photos of Comic Con there too.

At this year’s New York Comic Con, Managing Editor Jon Wood had the chance to talk with Josh Drescher, Jeff Hickman and Paul Barnett about the perception held by some that their roles at EA Mythic are purely PR. The three talk openly about their roles at the company beyond what we see at shows, in video dev dairies and elsewhere.
What can I say about this? If you can’t get enough off Josh, Jeff, and Paul then you’ll definitely get your fix from the article, as for nuggets of Warhammer Online information, you’ll have to keep looking.

Another great piece of RvR footage from the same guy who brought the previous footage of the Zealot. This time you get a decent look at Chaos Chosen RvR gameplay, and apart from the quality (damn YouTube!) it’s well worth a watch.

It’s footage like this that makes me that much more excited for Warhammer Online. The content isn’t breathtaking, but the polish of the game, and how finished it looks (even though it’s over 6 months away from launch) is amazing.
The video is some RvR footage in a Scenario, with the player playing a Chaos Zealot. My concerns about the combat being too slow have definitely been thwarted, that’s for sure.

People recently got to go hands on with Warhammer Online at Comic Con in New York. Warhammer Vault nicely summed up the important points gained from players impressions:
Members over at Warhammer Alliance have written up their full impressions from the event and it’s sounding pretty good, the main issues being focused more on balancing and small(ish) tweaks.
What stood out to me is peoples thoughts about the Disciple of Khaine class, and their opinion that its damage output is simply not enough to be effective. Once again though, that would surely just require some minor tweaking, so it isn’t much of a concern at this point in the Beta. There were a few people that shared this same concern.
