Omg thank you for this video bro, it's maybe the best gameplay footage I have ever seen ! The music perfectly fits, and on top of all, your guild name is nirnaeth arnoediad, and I love lotr :D Thank you again, you made me want to play daoc !
Sadly i didn't have the chance to play DAoC in it's prime, wish i did, it looked incomparable. The only modern PvP game i can think of which lives up to an MMORPG for a PvPer is Darkfall, anyone comment on this? How much better was DAoC in it's prime than Darkfall etc?
Check out Guild wars 2, it is the 1st MMO to try and bring back the RvR pvp, they call it World vs World vs World pvp (3 servers battle it out in week-long battles). There will be capturing sieges,castles etc :)
@kozas0 You can RVR beginning at any level. The competitive '8man' in DAoC is unbeatable. Each of the 8 people in your group must work together to make a good group. It was by far the most competitive and balanced PvP/RvR I have ever played.

@kozas0 your missing the point of the game son, the point is you learn your class to its perfection so that you can better defend your relm. In daoc a single person is worth nothing people come in groups after keeps or darkness fall even relics. Thoes require guild upon guilds to defend. It not so much being able to do rvr at lvl 1 or 5 because you can. If you know how to get to the frontier zone you can go there at any lvl but you will be killed easily. Its about learning how to play!
I think it's just your nostalgia talking. I still haven't seen a single rational explanation, from all you DaoC fans, as to why DaoC is better than WAR, as you claim. I haven't even seen as to why DaoC is a good game at all. What i personally know is that in WAR you can jump to RvR right after character creation and have fun with it. In DaoC, as far as i had tried it and as far as i 've been told, you need to level up first in order to RvR... Sorry but for me that makes WAR pretty much superior.
Beautiful fights, pac/mend healers rock the world :) For those playing "new age" and "popular" mmog, this may look like he is not doing much, but what he is doing VERY well is keep his arse out of the melee fight, healing exactly when its needed and not over-using his crowd control (in this game, if you get mezzed and someone breaks it, you are immune to it for 1 min). The chain wake on the caster at the end was nasty, but very very effective. Btw I have a mod skin with those same icons still.
God's I miss DAoC rvr. Nothing comes even close to it, maybe Warhammer but I couldn't bring myself to play it. The korean mmo's, while free usually, don't understand what great pvp is at all. Anyhow was nice to reminesce :)
You mean the crappy freeshard run by anal retentive Germans with god complexes where it takes about 10 times longer to level than even classic Daoc did? Yeah right...
I see so many posts like this.. If you truly miss the old frontiers and the old days. Come back to us! Come to Uthgard! Greatest Free Shard out there! Search for Uthgard and come play!
@hellochris06 Yeah. I really miss the old DAoC, the game was much more fun when fights like this could play out, instead of everything dying in 1-3 shots max.
Looking back on vids like these makes you realize how slow the game used to be and how much room for error there was lol even though it sure didnt seem like it at the time. Also how low damage was. Was nice that the fights lasted a few mins though unlike today.
Yeah, you're not wrong, existing IPs did have to start somewhere. However, all I'm saying is that the current state of the MMO scene is not the best place for ANYTHING to "start." There's just so much competition at present, that unless you have SOMETHING which grabs the public's attention (e.g. a known IP), you're gonna have a hell of a hard time surviving. Sadly. I'd love to see something original instead of Lord of the Rings, DC Comics, Star Trek, Stargate, Star Wars, etc. etc.
Yeah, a DAoC2 would've been awesome. I have a feeling the MMO market is going to be about high-profile IPs, though. I doubt it's possible in the current climate to launch something that isn't already a brand name, if you hope to be successful. And even then, good IPs fail, too. It's so damn hard to compete with WoW, sadly.
One of my favorite daoc video Thanks
From Albion....asishi....infiltrator.....greatest game ever.
Not realy old school. Look at the menu, symbols en quickbars. Stil fun to watch.
Phoenix DAoC, launching Sat. 12th January 2019!
Nirnaeth Arnoediad!
Die guten alten zeiten .__. Einfach zu lange her ^^

Gott ist das lange her ... ich fühl mich jetzt alt.
i miss DAOC...
@arquijhan Yes, the majority of kids today really are stupid...

@Rages80 Genau das dachte ich auch als ich über das Video stolperte ;) Minnesängerin Lingulaca von SH
Don't put this game down folks, this game was and is the king of rvr mmorpgs.
hehe i know the guys here :) gutes vid
@rcknowso they should update the graphics and invite all players back , would be epic to play this game again but atm.. not enough players :/
@whapakwhapak It's really old. Was one of the first mmo's.
the game looks like updated runescape Lol
OMG remember old daoc :( them were the days :( bring back old emain.
Holdan>all!

There are good shards and bad, Uthgard is in my opinion bad. But hell, if anyone is interested they can make their own minds up.
@someguyoketcetc Does it truly matter ? It's free. Once your 50 your pvp'n like the good old days. Some people are never happy.

Or Look up Uthgard its a Freeshard server. Free to play, Classic with OF.
Nobody attacked the Healer in that last battle, what a bunch of idiots, lol.
