As an old DAoC fan, I was hoping for something like Darkness Falls. From what they said today about the division of the city into districts, this may top that:

 

(Once again, thanks to Duffy from duffynet for the transcript)

 

Imperial City with Brain Wheeler

  • PVP zone
  • Unlocked by Corydiil Keep ownership.
  • Rid the imperial city of Molag Bal’s Planemeld, tons of bosses and mini bosses to kill.
  • Clear out enemy players.
  • Capture and hold different districts of the city. You get rewards and can respawn in that captured districts.
  • Repeatable PvE quests with high gold and XP reards.
  • Craftable Imperial Daedric Gear.
  • Arena District
    • Daedra taken over the city, thrown the Imperials into the arenas to have some gladiatorial games.
  • Arboretum District
    • Not completely taken over by the Daedra, still have some flora. You get to go in and make sure life goes on when you kick out the daedra.
  • Market District
    • You can capture this district. Once you own it, you can respawn and gain alliance bonus. Specific tradeskill stations that allow you to craft Imperial Daedric gear.
  • Temple District
    • Temple of the One in Oblivion. This is where the daedra trying to start the planemeld.
  • How do I get in?
    • Enter Imperial City via the sewers, a homage to Oblivion. There are three locations to enter the sewer with a safe zone for each alliance once you enter the sewer. There will be a lot of PvP outside the sewer entrances to stop people from getting in.
    • There is a crossroads sewer level where the three alliances cross path. There are portals that pop underneath and spawn monsters.
    • Only one alliance can own a district, you can come in to flip it and kill all the other alliance players that are in there.

    I like the idea of using the different sewer entrances to enter the city, I suggested that a long time ago when detailing my idea of a proper Arena system in the imperial city. I Like most of what I'm hearing from QC14. Nice changes and additions, the guild tabards and emblems are great as well.

    Former DAoC player here as well.  Good information all around.

     

    I think the sewer entrances have already been in game too, I saw one near the middle bridge between Alessia and ... Rayles, I think? The other outer AD keep. There's a path leading down to it and it looked really interesting, but I wasn't able to go inside at the time.
