I got a little question to add there Avery. A lot of ppl might find it stupid - but I was wondering if a guild could exist of both stygians and cimmerians ?
Sorry for the late reply.
Yes in AoC a guild can compromise of all 3 races. You can fight too against someone from you same race too and aren't bound by a faction type limitation.
Also guilds can be themed by the leader, For example a Cimmerian guild might have a different theme of ranks within compared to an Aquilonian. Like an Aquilonian guild might have a leader under a particular type of name to do with the background of that country and then officers might be called officers too. where as a Cimmerian leader might be called a war chief or something similar - so its kinda cool like that.
Wow - that is awesome!
I especially hated that in WoW (I got a little thaaaang about hating WoW) when some brain damaged freak would piss me off from time to time - and there wasn't anything I could do about it
It seems that my love for AoC just gets bigger for every day
No worries 'bout the "late" reply since I live in Europe... so the timezone is pretty much NOT the same as in the US!
This was pretty informative. I am, however, concerned about the solo aspect of the game. While it says the game is solo-able to 80, the focus post-30 seems to be on grouping. I tend to prefer how WoW has things, with soloing being the primary and group quests thrown in. Further, I'm wondering if only certain classes will be able to pull off soloing until 80 or if every class will be able to spec for successful soloing.
I really don't want to go back to my days in CoH where you sat around LFG so you could try to get things done (especially if you were a utility built, since they did pretty poor damage a lot of times). WoW at least allowed me to run with a friend a lot and solo plenty.
Perhaps the server populations will make grouping easy, though I remain skeptical on this.

Hi there, yea its a shame Stage 6 shut down, just working out the best choice to host from some other sites, and will ammend the list in the next few days.
wow amazing job there mate, thanks alot Some great information, and really cleared up a few unanswered questions for me. A shame about Stage6 though, it was a great place for movies, loved their player, but I hope you find another site where you can up the movies, I'd love to watch em.
thanks Avery for all the info. Cant wait for this game! I am so excited and with all the goodies you provided i have alot to tie me over till the game comes out. Thanks again.
I have a question answered that I didnt see any info on. How many characters can you have per server? If this question was asked and I missed it, I apologize.
p.s. Im counting the days that this game is released.

Hey there I believe you can have 8 characters per account. Each server will have a limit, maybe 3k at a time with 5k total. Not sure about alts on same server as your main though. It might be that once the quoted for the server is filled you wont be able to add more. But to be honest still waiting for clarification on this, as a bit has been said here and there, but nothing that i've seen for sure though.

PS i'll be updating the thread tomorrow
Unless you can play your alts at the same time, I'd say it would be just like any other game. Server limit would be based on accounts, not characters. Now if you make an alt account, that's a different story. If the server has the maximum amount of accounts, then you might not be able to have your second account on the same server.

Yep that how I see it too. Just like other games in this regard.
I would hope they would offer maybe 12 character slots though instead of 8.
