Of course they release this news now that they realize they underestimated WAR.

It's just like how they released a metric butt-load of beta keys the day before WAR's head start servers were going live.

I don't care what Blizzard's motives are in the release timing. I'm ready for the new expansion to hit already!

I knew this was comming, not surprised in the least. And they did not underestimate WAR, they have been planning this release date since WAR was sure to come on the current release date.

The only thing that will kill WoW is your mother's syphilis. Stfu

Where is 2moons, where is Conan, where is Perfect World, etc, etc, etc. You believe an unproven product has competition with Blizzard? I predicted the expansion for Nov. 7th (In January), I must of calculated WAR into my equation!!

Er...if Anything Warcraft is a knock off of Warhammer.

at least in terms of the actual universes

However, WAR is also looking like it will take much of Blizzard's PvP fanbase.

Considering this is the part of the base Blizzard has tried to appease for the whole of BC, this is more of a threat to their fanbase than you realize.

And WAR is only just beggining, and it already is competing with a game that has been out 5 years and will have 2 expansions under it's belt.

for them to underestimate WAR would be folly

November 13th puts it a full week before Thanksgiving in the US. That's prime selling period for publishers.

online version of what?
warhammer is an mmo, so of course its online,
or do you mean will the WotLK be a downloadable game, no.

Right before Christmas is too late to get sales, so they have to release before that. The average "holiday season" release is mid November, which is almost exactly what Blizz is doing. They are getting it out in time for it to be purchased before Christmas.
