Mid is cool and doing well at the moment.
Alb are the underdogs.
I would roll on one of those before Hib.
I hate dem Hibbies

Haven't been following origins that closely but i've seen some news about it.. i thought uthgaard was pretty much the "p99" of DAoC? What is the difference between these servers and why all the hype for this new server?

Ive never played Uthgard but the way I understand it they had a lot of broken shit and empty promises that never got addressed.

Lets say Uthgard was p99 and a new classic server opened up with Velious and no tmo bs, most people would jump ship right?

Well thats what happened to Uthgard, so many quit that they wiped the server and are revamping it now

But it seems like all I read about origins is how broken the realms are lol.. like the post right above yours. insta 50's, 1 realm steamrolling RvR from exploiting lvl's etc.

What are they revamping about uthgard? A wiped DAoC server sounds pretty cool

edit: just read their "revamp" post on their site. i didn't realize how bad it was with their pop and stuff. guess their server is closed for the time being and origins is the big one for now lol

Not sure, I hear they could never support a large player base and have too few GM's, like 2, so yeah

The biggest problem with origins/ genisis is that the population is capped during the day and it's hard to log on, also they seem to reboot the server a ton, which is annoying

Uthgard has been out forever, which made it really difficult on new players. I had a 50 Skald but it was really difficult for me to do much when I logged in, especially after the NA guild I was in broke up. People had nearly a decade to form cliques and gain massive amounts of RR, players without the connections, gear, or RR were pretty unwanted.

So, those people went to Origins and Uthgard had a nearly unplayable population. The reboot was a great move, and honestly something Uthgard has needed for awhile.

Uthgard is quality. It is the P99 to Origins' Kegzbox. As soon as Uthgard relaunches in a few months, everyone will come back and Origins will be a ghost town.

not unless they up the max population they can handle, guys were telling me it could only handle like half what origins can now.
