Concerned about balance of factions

Sorry if this has already been brought up but im sure as eggs are eggs that this is going to get one sided.

For me I just do not see anything attractive about the Harani / Firrans. The catty / doggy fellas totally don't do it for me and im guessing that most Europeans / US are going to go with the race that most resembles themselves and im betting that nuians are going to be overpopulated thus in turn leading to a massive imbalance across servers?

Can this be prevented and ill be honest im liking the game but I have this in the back of my mind.

    I hope this doesn't happen.

     

    I'm actually playing East.  I chose it because it is a Korean game so I thought I would go with the most Asian looking avatar. =)

     

    I'm worried you could be right and the PvP will be one sided.

     

    Not that this would be something new.  When I was playing DOAC we had a dominant faction on the server.  (it wasn't my faction!)   I also played on a PvP WoW server and there the Horde were generally a stronger group.

     

    You never will get perfect balance but I hope it is not totally one sided as you presented.  Time will tell...

    I think it definitely will happen and a shame it will be. I believe that all races are lacking but with East there is just nothing to entice us to that side but that's my opinion and way I feel.

    East areas are overflowing with people, same like the west, i could argue that from what i've seen it's more crowded on east than on west, ...

     

    From about 10 people that i know that are playing the game, all picked east, ...

    Many people favor cat races, especially if they have an attractive racial such as reduced damage from falling, since you do fall alot in AA.

    In Alpha it seemed this alone slanted the balance to the east as there were hordes of cat people around. I thought their 4 legged running looked pretty cool as did their mounts.

    Time will tell and likely their will be some imbalance, always is it seems.
