About european and USA servers

Game is GREAT. U already know that. Excellent graphics, addicting gameplay, dozens of different races and classes, simply the best MMORG available today.

Well, regarding the servers: Theres 2 groups of servers : USA and Europe. The game is oriented to play in 1 of these groups. If u buy the game from amazon.com, ull be able to play only in 1 of the USA servers. No access to european ones.

Case u like to play at european servers (wich is my case), i suggest u to buy the game from amazon.co.uk. Just remember, in this case, ull not be able to play USA servers.

Or, simply buy both, install then and pay the fee twice, and have all servers in the world available to u :). It worth it.

Just plain awesomeness...

I originally tried EQ...and it is SO much harder to learn, and the people there are much less friendly. In DAoC, the people are much more friendly and willing to help (players and support), easier learning curve, but doesn't diminish the game at all! Buy it!

Mythic should have a couple servers without TOA

Before TOA I would give this game a 4.5 star rating, after TOA released I will give it 0.5 stars. It would be nice if Mythic added a couple non TOA servers. I have five level 50 characters that I will not play much longer after my account expires. Since TOA released, the winner in RVR is not the best fighters, the winner is who has the most TOA artifacts. IMO took all the fun away from RvR. I would not suggest buying this game.

So so.

I just want to say b4 I get started that I tried this game after enjoying World of Warcraft for a week or so. What does this mean? It means its like trying a biscuit after eating a pizza and giving a comparison...there is none.

The only reason I even downloaded this game was because I was waiting to get World of Warcraft after its open beta ended and needed something to hold me over. I read up on other mmorpgs out there and saw that this one was very close to WoW. It was...but it was much more boring.

To start, the camera movements were horrible, I couldn't even look behind me without stopping and turning around...this is rediculous when being chased by an enemy and not knowing when its safe to stop running. Moving from side to side(strafing) is slow as hell, to the point you dont even use it most of the time. Leveling is probably the worst thing about this game. You find yourself spending up to 3 or 4 hours a session beating on all sorts of wierd things trying to gain experience points. Masssssivvvveeee unbalanced issues with the character. For example: the fighter(warrior type) is stinged out so bad. He has no chance whatsoever against a caster. I started as a fighter and got to level 9 in about 2 days. When I made a caster I did it in a few hours.

To give the game some credit, it does have a helllll of a lot of stuff to do, you probably wont even do a quarter of the things you can do in this game b4 you are sick of it, but its still there. I was able to play World of Warcraft for 10 days straight. Every waking hour was spent playing or thinking about it. And when the beta was over it left me feeling like I just stopped doing a drug. I felt soooo bored with everything, and still do, which is why im here right now writing this review. The game is PURE masterpiece...its crack. You will be hooked for life, especially if you liked warcraft.

Oh enough of this...buy World of Warcraft, its 20x better...problem is wait a month or two because theres so many people playing it right now that its causing server problems...major ones.

I don't understand who likes this game? The graphics are VERY ancient. There also is no adventure to this game. The only thing you do is level, and level, and level. The adventure tasks that your trainer gives you have about 30 words in them, that's all. 30 words that's all, thats the big adventure in this game? To show that your in a city, there are 4 or 5 stones around in a circle, thats it. I think a high school student could of done a much better job. By the way I only played Midgard, I don't know about the other realms.
But don't take my word for it, you can download and play for free. Just check out the graphics, and redundant music, its embarrassing. Go to the co. main website download the game and play for free if you really want to see BAD.

DAoC Troubles

This game was just outstanding, up to there Trials of Atlants. ToA, changed all formats of the game. You now need not only just a level 50 but the ToA to just survive in this game. If you are looking for the great reviews of the game of DAoC, they are gone.
Anyone starting out new will have the worst time in leveling because all that have level 50 char's do /level 20, so the new person on the block is for the most part out. If some one gets this with out ToA, you will not have the fun that was once there in this game. Over all i will now give this a 1 star from a 5 from 1 year ago and the reason being that anyone that starts now will have a long time too go be compairable to some level 40's. If you think you would like to try the game you will have to get ToA and spend the time to get a level 50 and then try to get there newer stuff in ToA too event survive. Its a sad day for Mythic on New Additions

everyone here who gave it a low rating is stupid

I have been playing for 2 years and the reason why people gave it a bad rating is cause they diddnt follow the rule book or look on the herald. most likely if someone heals themselves during a battle with you and you lose they have ignore pain which is a 100% heal in combat you an only achieve this buy using around 20-30 realm points which is hard to get. another one is dont be stupid about billing. set it up for the 1st one and if you dont like it just go to the start screen, go to billing, and cancel it. its that simple! the only thing bad about this game that i agree with is PvP now a days its mostly whoever has the biggest zerg wins. but in the next few months the frontier patch is coming out which will change everything. so get the game! its great! its fun! my character is on Midgard Merlin name JaggedFel you have any questions if you start to play ask me...hope this helped you

No thanks

Not a fun game at all. I have 4 level 50 maxed out toons. I have played this game for about 1 year. It is all now being hacked out by cheaters. Therefore I would pass on this game. Enemy players now have the ablity to heal themselves as much as they want. Really makes it sad, a once fun game to play , turns out to be a hack. Oh and if you do get the game and have any issues, have fun! Customer service lacks big time!!!!! I came up missing a really nice staff, 6 days later they got back to me , only to say, sorry we cant do anything. Also if somone on this amazon review says its a great game, maybe thats because they have a few to sell ya!!!! They dont want ya to know the real deal!!!

Too Much Fun To Contain

This Game isn't a Game but a World on its own. It has several Career and Class Paths one Person can Choose. In respect to what else you can do for [the money] (Go see 1 movie and get a drink for example,) the monthly fee is well worth it. I have played this game for ages and it still entertains me vs. Playing most solid content games for a few months and getting tired of it.

If you are interested in MMORPG or just out looking for a new and different experience I strongly suggest DAOC.
