From the first paragraph:

So… wow. After all this time, we finally have some solid concrete details on just what World vs. World (WvW) will entail in Guild Wars 2. We’ve digested the info that Mike Ferguson gave us in his blog post, ruminated on it a bit, and are ready to share with your our initial thoughts on just what awaits us in the Mists when GW2 launches later this year. With servers being matched up in battle every two weeks, and the warfront constantly raging day and night during the battle, it’s safe to say that PVP-ers will have a lot to do in GW2. In short, if you don’t fancy reading: Dark Age of Camelot fans are going to love this system.

I'm pumped.

It's still going to be like:

albs v albs v albs

hibs v hibs v hibs

mids v mids v mids

And it does not equal:

albs v hibs v mids

I'm not pumped at all.

IMHO there will never be another game as good as daoc was. you might find a better game but unless they can go back in time and release it in the year 2000, daoc will still have something that you'll never see again.

well gw2 might be ok, but then there is real life, so i'll be happy that I enjoyed daoc for a little while, but i have no goals of getting hooked on another mmo.

Yeah that system is f**king stupid. 3 way mirror battle ftl.

I dislike pvp when they boost level base

Real objectives that affect wvw play. Awesome. This could be a great game.

I've been saying this since people heard about the 3 way pvp and got boners. Nothing does or will ever compare to RvR

The complexity built into different classes and realms in Daoc made the game impossible to balance. With races, traits and professions, there will be sufficient complexity to entertain, but not an inability to balance. Daoc still isn't balanced after a decade.

And WoW is balanced? Lulz
DAoC may have its problems, but it is a very well balanced game. And I would part the imbalanced parts of the game solely on mythic's inadequate view, with extreme lack of testing and resources.

Even in the perfect scenario, where you have like 5 classes for a game, billions of generated revenue, code monkies at your disposal, and thousands of testers, you still end up with imbalanced stuff making it into the game.

In fact, I would much rather play a game with a lot more uniqueness and include imbalances than I would where I have to choose from 5 classes and be perfectly balanced.I would also like to take up arms against an enemy that I can distinguish, and not be killing my fellow races. DAoC isn't necessarily excessively unique when it comes to classes, as most spells are in all 3 realms, with a different spin on them. But bravo to them for spreading these out and making unique classes that won't be the same on all sides.

But to each his own.
