Yoshi, sofar I've been playing that game for about 8 months, and trust me, Akita's closer to the money than you'd think. The cutting of the capitals won't matter all that much. (they changed the City Siege mechanic to compensate)
But the classes are important since they're literally cutting the 2 most fun melee classes (Orc Choppa and Dwarf Hammerer) aswell as the Disorder Caster/Avoidance Tank (the Dark Elf Black Guard) and one of the Order heavy tanks (the human Knight of the Blazing Sun)
Now the loss of one of the heavy tanks isn't to bad for Order, they have another which is the Dwarf Ironbreaker, but the loss of the primary magic tank will hurt Disorder, sure the Chaos Chosen can handle part of what the Black Guard could but doesn't have nearly the anti-magic options of the other.
Add to that the fact that mOlTe combat still feels like fighting while dunked in wallpaper paste (very slow and cumbersome) and you'll see that this game will have some serious problems to overcome to even launch well. It looks a lot better now though, most of the lighting is in place and the game world now feels dark and brooding as it should.

wh online is a facepalm in itself cause they went for the fantasy setting and not 40k. guess that would've been too challenging and they just want a wow clone, not to explore new things.. not all mmog companies can do a ccp :p
Well, THQ holds the complete Warhammer 40K license, so Mythic couldn't have tried even if they wanted to. That said, THQ is working on a 40K MMO, but they only started on it early this year, so it'll be a few years before we see it.
