I played the E3 beta of this game. Pretty cool game. I have a forum on my site for it which is pretty much updated daily on different things about the game.
The cool thing about it is the 8 player teams max. Then you enter the PvP arena and can take on up to 3 other teams.
What you do from there is you have to kill their Priest and wipe them out. Sometimes teams will double up on you to take yours out. The classes are combo type classes which is cool too.
In the E3 beta I was a Monk/Ranger combo. Until you get a good bow though Ranger kinda sucks if you ask me. They have fire arrows and poison arrows which was kinda cool without any limits on the amount of arrows shot.
The Monk class has buffs such as a health regen which worked out pretty nice for me anyway when I had it.
If you wanna find out more information feel free to stop by my forums at

I know a bunch of my members from my gaming clan will be playing this one when it comes out. The ladder/ranking system is going to be cool too. Oh yeah! Did I mention it's free to play! No online fees like DAoC and other games out there.

Free to play? Whats the catch.....
I was just gonna say "If your not paying for an MMORPG then how do they pay the developers to better the game (bugs/fixes/ect..)
But we see how paying for DaoC, helped the developers ruin the game by introducing NF. So moot point.

there's no monthly fee but for expansions and new content you have to pay for that

so you can pick and choose your content

sorry, moved this to the BWC Only discussion since it wasn't DAoC related.
