Not only is the description of sieges entirely false on that picture, but the picture itself is a lie - it's taken from some pre-launch video on sieges where it shows a siege that to this day does not exist (precise military formations, mounted combat, siege taking place in some area that's not even in-game, etc.).
Well, the majority of Fury players have this love-the-game-you-hate attitude, so the situation is indeed bizarre. I was actually one of those for a couple of months, but since I am an intelligent being I didn't continue this self-destructing trend for TWO YEARS. And gotta love the unfounded and fanatic statements from Fury players - "AoC does suck, but there is no other pvp game like it". Rofl and facepalm in perfect synthesis!
There is no other decent PvP game out there
Btw Krewel I think you will come back to us once expansion is released, Iam getting a lot of positive feedback from some of our "pve" members playing beta.
We like gank paradise thats the beauty of AoC, its all about players controling the PvP and not some mechanics its already bad enough they have guards next to all zones enterances. Well thank god with upcoming Shrines of Bori (hopefully) most of PvP will move to Cimmerian End and there is no guards and only one instance + players cant port out using path of asura etc.. they need to get to exit of the map and use NPC to port out. ( only 2 exits available on that map)
As for PvE I dont know as Iam not much into PvE and it pains me that I will need to do some in upcoming expansion but so far a lot of people like what they did with PvE recently and whats coming with expansion.
Yes Funcom is slow when it comes to patching and they like to promise more then they can deliver but still game is decent and I must say that despite the huge subs drops in recent two years they are still supporting game and adding stuff, most of other devs would give up ages ago when subs were really low.
Omg, those videos made my evening. Decap sure has talent.
P.S. - me playing the expansion? No idea, maybe, maybe not. It sure looks like they're adding, changins stuff that I want, but so many things can go wrong and I can't take them seriously after Fury still being such a mess. It just pains me to think about those huge Khitai zones and Fury!

different strokes and al that. Myself I enjoyed DAoC's PvP where you could find a fair fight when you wanted but did not have to worry about 5 level 40's jumping you when you were level 15 and were trying to get to 16.
Oh and sieges and siege engines worked w/o crashing the servers in DAoC also.

I miss DAoC
Well, you can always find fair fight in minis. And in Bori. Damn ... I might even retry the game post expansion
