  • They need to fix the PVP.  Add a DAoC frontiers type PVP endgame and you'll attract the rest of your niche market.  Why mix PvE and PVP?  There are PVE players and PVP players, simple as that.  Each type of player knows where to go to find what th…
  • Why the heck won't they just modernize DAoC?  Throw the CryEngine on that game and resell.  This game has the best RvR/Open PVP ruleset and the 8v8 makes it hella intense for coordinating everything in a fight.  So much more variety on class selecti…
  • Game started out fun, but the PVP turned out to be a pretty big disappointment.  The leveling/grinding was pretty lame at the 40+ but that isn't really the end of the world.  Styling in PVP is kind of a joke (3/4 of your styles you can't even move d…
  • easy answer...DAoC without a doubt New cluster starting around  August too, all servers combined to one, Ywain.
  • First and the last? lol Dungeons and Dragons? Magic the Gathering? Dragon's Gate? Everquest? Ultima Online? Silkroad Online? ----- I'm leaving out a ton of games...Fact is, new games come along all the time and the masses are always…
  • Wish Mythic would bring Magestorm back
  • Too much lacking compared to what?  About the only thing that WAR isn't 100% on yet is PvE.  Their pvp and rvr system is a lot more balanced and accessible than any other game out there besides maybe their parent game, DAoC.  Huge rewrite, lol  
  • There are a lot of good servers out now since the clustering but expect the normal randomness to scenarios and orvr in terms of what kinds of skilled players you'll be fighting.  On Dark Crag there are some pretty big guilds that run around together…
  • Honestly the game isn't really buggy at all, it's pretty smooth.  I do agree with the above though, this game needs content, theres just not a ton of stuff to do after you level a toon to 40, etc.  This is to be expected with any new game but rea…
  • ^^ Excellent post and some really good analogies/examples to put things in perspective.
  • It's been pretty irrelevant for everyone that's still playing.  If anything it's a plus for the people resubbing so they can have their toons on a decent server. Game is fun, endgame pvp still needs tweaking..Once that's set in a couple more patch…
  • If you're playing alone and not going to be relying on a healer often, go with a heavy tank (Iron Breaker, KotBS, Swordmaster, Black Orc, Chosen, Blackguard, etc).   The melee DPS classes are a lot of fun but being new and without heals you'll proba…
  • Always a great read from Mark Jacobs, they've been doing this kind of stuff for over a decade.  Already made a ton of great changes based upon feedback and the future direction looks promising.  Like I've been telling everyone, you can play now a…
  • I'd say this concludes a pretty successful launch.  Mythic created enough servers to deal with the incoming first free month subscriptions to avoid massive queues and within 6 months time have successfully balanced all of the servers by transferri…
  • yeah free trial is great. Game still lacks content but the pieces are in place for a great game to keep growing.  Of all the other MMO's that have been dropping, you arne't going to find one more complete off the get go. If you're still skeptica…
  • daytime pop is med/med and the action is decent for morning/afternoons. I think it's key to note that when playing this game, you take it for what it is currently.  Rushing to 40 to try to get to endgame will ultimately result in some disappointme…
  • Iron Rock, Dark Crag, Volkmar are the current big hitters. Phoenix Throne is a very active RP server and Skull Throne is pretty popular as well.
  • EDIT: Bah, Euro! info below is US! There are 3-4 Full/High servers every night with quick scenario queue's and good orvr.  The game feels alive but it's all in what you're looking for.  I think if you're looking for a fully populated PvE world y…
  • Iron Rock is Full/Full everynight with 100-200+ destruction queues and 50+ on the order queue. The other two servers you mentioned are med/med
  • the game is dead, there is virtually no new content. If you enjoy sub-par populations and sitting around new frontiers saying LFG for hours at a time, enjoy.  Theres just not much left to do unless you're in a guild running groups at night. Stil…
