Post Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning E3 Preview

IGN's Vault Network has whipped up a quick preview of Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning based a demonstration of the MMORPG during E3.
We were then introduced to the incredible additions Mythic has made to character customization. Mythic has taken the approach of Macro Customization by taking a page out of the FPS genre where a character's silhouette says it all. "We want you to feel like you can look like your class right from the beginning", said Adam as he described the various sets of armor players can obtain for each and every class. Referencing Dark Age of Camelot where players could often be picked out of a crowd from a mile away simply by what they were wearing, Adam told us of Mythic's plan to feature over 114 colors for dyes drawing inspiration from Games Workshop. And yes, White dye WILL be in the game!

While Adam finished explaining to us the details of The Inevitable City he opened his inventory and activated his mount in a style very similar to World of Warcraft. Adam told us how players will be able to obtain mounts starting at level twenty and customize them similar to the character customizations we mentioned earlier but even before then they will be able to purchase temporary mounts or "Rent a mule" as Adam said in jest. These mounts are temporary with only a few charges and give everyone the opportunity to experience a mount. When asked about Mounted Combat and flying mounts we were told that they have not been ruled out but will not be in release.
