Daoc had three realms, all with different classes, unlike two realms in wow, and warhammer. Warhammer seems alot more like wow and the amount of classes, compared to daoc.
One word:

I feel the same. I want to play whatever is the least popular basically. I have a feeling that'll be the greenies. Empire is the 'normal' choice and chaos is the 'cool' choice.

greenskins is basically orcs and goblins isnt it ?

Not really a fan of them well i could stomach playing an orc but not a goblin.

As for which race ill choose itll be whichever i like the sound of the most. Dont like playing a race just because its leasyt p[opular i want to play something ill be happy with.

Probably will choose dark elf or chaos me thinks.

As long as I'm happy with the class I have, the race I couldn't care less about, I'll stare at a slithering lump of goo if I enjoy the class. If the classes are radically different across the races though, then there might be something to think about. The classes will most likely fit some kind of stereotypical MMORPG mould, and I'm just a fan of the underdogs.

Orcs 4TW! Tis why I'm going back to Horde side in WoW.

I have no idea on the Warhammer setting but people who know say WoW is a basic rip off. So basically its gonna be WoW in a Warhammer setting.

I'm gonna play it regardless, it looks good.

And another thing you couldnt chain mez, stun, or root like you can chain fear in wow. After the first one you was immune for a 1 min.

Daoc balance> wow balance. That is all.

When the game first started, you could chain, and they didnt really have ways to break any of those things.

Same as wow has tweaked the system, after a few months, and patches, they added the changes.

Fear is alot worse than mez. With mez it put you to sleep in the same spot and any damage breaks it. Fear on the other hand, can send you into mobs, and people can still damage you without it breaking.

Goblins > all. Take a look at the shots and those goblin shamans and hunter like guys with the armor parts made out of those red monster thingies hehe. Just funky stuff.

If wow would make goblins a player race I would be the first to go for them

About daoc balance and pvp system in general. WoW copied alot of things but they somehow forgot to take the best part from daoc. The keep and relics system, which still makes the game standout from all the others. I really hope warhammer will take this and build around it. Huge potential. The only part I never liked about daoc pvp was the silly animations and particles and all those damn bubbles for shields and aoe effects. Never really liked that stuff...

Thats the norm tho in mmos, most of them have effects like that, even wow.

I like it myself but can understand why others wouldnt.

I doubt it will be anywhere near wow at the release day.
Considering how long it took to develop wow and to the point it is today.

patches, balancing, bugs, lags etc...

Weird, since everything I've ever read and everyone I've ever spoken to who played it and every video I've ever seen said it was a oneshot nightmare of a game with stupidly overpowered AOE dots, stupidly overpowered mez, 'he who attacks first wins' combat and was so badly balanced it practically defined the term "FOTM".

The only good thing I've really heard about the PVP was that it had a great PVP system.
