As I am not under NDA, since I am not in beta, I can tell you for a fact Destruction is more popular and to prove it without needing to be in beta: http://www.warhammeralliance.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=8a01f81bed823951fcea4bf6d4ee5789&f=20

 

I'm estimating based on that alone there are at least 3:1 good experienced guilds/clans planning on going Destruction over Order. In fact, I was looking for a good group of experienced PvPers (I have a bias toward old Shadowbane/Guild Wars groups) on Order and basically found nothing other than the Mithril Warhammers, who are Dwarf only. There are some really good guilds/clans who are going to be rolling Destruction making me almost feel like going Order will just cause me to quit in frustration due to the incompetency of many of the players who will be on it.

 

The exact number listed there on the guild list is 49:32 (Destruction to Order). Basically that comes out to be about 5:3, which is only represantive of guilds and not actually member size.

What if?

well all i have to say about this issue,

is that there may be more order on RP servers than anything else.

 

I've seen some groups of elite DAoC people who are forming alot of different order based RP guilds,

52% Destruction, 47% order.

But again in WoW we saw Horde overwhelmingly outnumber alliance in beta and in polls yet at release alliance outnumbered horde.  I wouldn't read too much into it.

As the title states, I believe the world PvP in Warhammer Online will be a lop-sided affair.  As we've heard from some beta information (which, granted, could be hearsay), Order is a fair amount more popular than Destruction. 

 

And that is where I stop reading.

From the very start you are wrong.  Whereever you are getting your info from, it is not correct. I am not going to bother reading the rest of your post as you have already proven to be misinformed, and thus everything you are saying is from a skewed, incorrect viewpoint.

its really going to dpend on how well the classes are made.  Since i imagine the majority of player will have decent pvp experince, they will graviatate to the classes/builds that have the best burst damage and survivability.  What will decide any lopsidedness is the game mechanics of the classes.  i know you are trying to make yet another WoW comparision in that all of the little kids will go for the "good guys" just like they do in Alliance vs Horde. 

I will predict that you will be chappoing through alot of lions however lol.  That class is goign to be everywhere.

Probably because a lot of people who want to play ally / order don't really read or post on forums much.

I did see it in one of the interviews,if one side is losing alot they plan to buff them w/ invisible buffs to help them win ....eventually .

But i did not see any specifics about how long the flogging would continue before they stepped in and started buffing.

I stated previously that from my own quick browsing of the forums on Warhammer Alliance, Destruction is not only going to have quantity, but quality too.

actually they do have ways of balancing it , the side with less people gets bonuses.
