If there where a EU Origin server I think it should be German since they have the highest population, I wouldn't mind since I wouldn't consider setting my foot on a GOA ran server this lifetime  Not a bad tradeoff having english language and play on "offtimes" on a server wich will probably have a 3k population on primetime. Alot of people who did play DAoC in its height, moved on to WoW, EVE, Lineage, The lord of the ring thing, AoC. WoW - people are leaving WoW in droves it seems. AoC - once you get 80, get Teir1 epics your done, there is nothing to do but ffa pvp wich is a "waste of time" at this stage. EVE - getting old people moving to new games, such as AoC ( look above ) Lineage died no? I think if mythic market their Origin server, offer free 8 days play time for all old subscribers and get the server correct ( as in not going through with alot of the crap they are thinking about  ) it could work well in their favor while other games mature and before their own new launch.

a few hundred ppl from my country, who tried aoc are back in wow.
most of them in the forums were disappointed by: the requirements, the lack of support, the slug speed of patching important stuff, the lack of contain, the lack of class balance, especially the buffs and nerfs of the casters the lack of role play in general the lack of pvp motivation the lack of economy and crafts in their words : aoc was hyped, only some nice graphics who demand to much and everything else pales to wow. they just can't wait for the new expansion

Looks like they are trying to do the same as they are in WAR. For most classes there will be an almost exact equivalent for each realm and then there will be slight differences with the hybrids. The main difference in the realms at the moment is in the CC and buffing characters and both of these are being looked at.
Heavy Tanks Alb: Armsmen Hib: Hero Mid: Warrior Light Tanks Alb: Mercenary Hib: Blademaster Mid: Berserker Melee Healer Alb: Friar Hib: Warden Mid: Valk Hybrid Melee Alb: Paladin Hib: Champion Mid: Thane Pet Caster Alb: Cabalist Hib: Enchanter Mid: Spiritmaster Bolt Caster Alb: Wizard Hib: Eldritch Mid: Runemaster Music Class Alb: Minstrel Hib: Bard Mid: Skald Primary Healer Alb: Cleric Hib: Druid Mid: Healer Ranged Hybrid Alb: Sorc Hib: Mentalist Mid: Shaman Stealthers Alb: Infiltrator, Scout Hib: Nightshade, Ranger Mid: ShadowBlade, Hunter I know some of these don't quite match up yet but from what is being said about changes to buffing and CC I wouldn't be surprised if classes got made alot more similar. For example: If they nerf mezz they need to give bards a boost and who would bet against them being given improved melee to make them more like skald/minstrel?

tanks are quite similar, but casters and support classes are a lot different and complex.
and i think there are too few caster / healer classes in war. if i am not mistaken there are 1/4 casters 1/4 healers 2/4 tanks atm

This thread fails!
3rd page and not 1 possible 8v8 setup has been suggested for Origins!! Anyway, our guild realm poll has hibs winning atm, so we'll probably roll hib. I think we're probably going to run 1 tank and 1 caster group (we have about 24 oldschool prydwen'ers signed up for origins) as seperate FGs ofc. Tank group we're thinking along the lines of: BM/BM/Hero or Champ/Mana Eld/Druid/Druid/Bard/Warden Caster Group: Mana Eld/Mana Ench/Light Ench or Ment/BM/Warden/Bard/Druid/Druid alternatively Light Eld/Light Eld/Mana Ench as casting crew. Depends how well the guys end up playing together as to what exact caster crew we'll run.

But keep going so I can keep giggling at the guys looking for the holy grail aka THE NEXT/RIGHT/ONLY GAME which I am sure DAoC Origins will be for them for 1 month until they make a whine thread about it.

even after 2 months aoc is not even close to 1/10 of wow at its current state... they got all things sorted out in wow and they have a nice time and most of them are seasoned players and 20+ of age. i have played with them in daoc or wow and met them in rl, but its much easier to post in forums
