all you wow pvp's need to up wow in the back corner and come to dark age of camelot, commonly refered to as daoc. In this game there is 3 realm/factions not just 2, a big open field with keeps and towers that can taken or defended. 3 pvp/pve dungeons. no time limit on how long you can fight, compared to 30-40 min bg's and 20sec arena's. One of these dungeons can only be accessed if your realm owns more towers then the other 2 realms. 14-16 class's and 7 race's per realm, each with their own abilitys. Oh and some fights can get as big as 100+ vs 100+ vs 100+, where in wow most there is a 40vs40vs(oh no 3rd faction, epic fail)

There aren't 100 ppl playing DAoC, much less enough for 100v100.
How funny that on WoW vault, one of the 5 posts today is for another game.

the only thing that made daoc interesting was having 3 factions.
vanilla wow pvp > daoc
bc wow pvp > daoc
now LK and Cata on the other hand...

All we need is more DAoC trolls... 
They will eventually understand nobody wants to play their crap game anymore and give up... since every human dies one day.

DAOC was wonderful, and I am not going to trash you for trying to get people to play. I wish I could find another game to match it. But there's no way I could go back to the game as it currently stands. Even though I totally understand why some people are still playing (there are days I even consider going back to it), the reality is that it's done. It's certainly not "a crap game"...but it's way out of date.
You'd be better off spending your time trying to lobby game companies to create an updated version before the gaming community is taken over entirely by people whose only memories of PvP involve "honor grinding" in WoW instanced battlegrounds.

I have fond memories of DAoC. But I tried it again a couple of years ago while taking a break from WoW and geez, that game is now clunky, ugly and dated by comparison. WoW has raised the bar. DAoC and many other games are relics. Enjoy your small-scale PVP.

Daoc need's to upgrade its game engine and hud.
A good game, prefer the trial over a wow sub,but wont play unless they make a daoc 2.

I also have fond memories of daoc. It was great, for it's time, and I played it for quite a while.
Going back to it, though... I think we paint it in a better light than it was at the time.

It was a GREAT game, until Trials of Sucklantis.
What I loved about that game is I could gring out a max lvl toon rather quickly then craft, enchant a suit with wpns and at least compeat in end game RvR. Keep takes, defense, relic ect... It wasnt AS gear based.

The people who played Daoc made the game good not just the game itself is what people don't understand and the kids these days playing mmo's well what can I say about them just go look at the chat channels in any mmo.

I always had a buffbot (two when I played mid, haha) so I never was worried about that.
And, I always thought it was pretty gear based. Having to have the perfect template to compete at a high level, etc.

DAOC was awesome 10 years ago, but time has passed it by. I will always love the time i had playing that game. Well except for ML3, that time I will never get back!
But as most have said, going back now is just not what it use to be. The community and the people who played then are what made it great, and they are all gone.

THQ are developing it, not due until fiscal year 2013 though. See http://massively.joystiq.com/category/warhammer-40k/ for some articles about it.
The angst from those following it is that it is apparently going to use a two faction system like WAR.

Hell yeah, I'm excited now! I happen to prefer a two faction system, people always forget how stupidly unbalanced the three faction system was in DAoC. It's hard enough to balance two factions, much less three.

You're not concerned that it might fall victim to the "one faction is KEWL, therefore more people play it, therefore they win more, therefore even more people play it, repeat ad infinitum" problem?
