Anyone who think realm imbalance isn't an issue haven't played DAoC. If Chaos is going dominate the population then it seems WAR will share the same flaw as Mythic's previous game.

Sure being the underdog can be cool, and getting bonuses on a under pop realm is a nice but that will fade, and quickly when you're fighting out numbered 2 to 1 in every keep battle and frontier encounter. Another major problem with being the under pop realm is it tend to bleed population. A few hardcore guilds will stay and some might even relocate to your server but when the word gets out that the realm is getting blasted with zerg raids day in day out, the general population will take a dive as people start leaving for more populated realms on other servers.

Chaos will always triumph, because Order is dumb.

Follow the lore. ;) Chaos is stronger individually, the Order should get their forces by numbers. You are doomed to think there'll ever be more people in the Order than in Chaos (for that exact same reason) in an MMo though.

I hope they'll fix that with implanting NPC's to help the Order, to keep the numbers up. Otherwise, it's doomed I'm afraid.

Chaos has more complete classes. That's why...

A 3 class Empire with ... a mage and ... a witch hunter .... Who wants to play with that???

Mythic doesn't know 70% of all warhammer miniatures players have an Empire block in their closet.

To me its clear : Mythic designers hardly played the minature game at all.

But of course 95% of the MMORPG players are not even interested in the miniatures game. Who cares.

Well the WH clubs care.

It surprises me every time I play at my club that interest of those Warhammer players is so low. You hardly find anyhting in the MMO that makes the Warhammer miniatures game so interesting.

If they had deleted the WP, it would have been  a complete disaster.

 

Chaos may have more classes, but the destruction and order sides have the same number. And the Mythic guys worked closely with Gamesworkshop when designing the game, originally having 250 classes.

see all destruction players are mature

order ftw.

What's really amazing is the OP made all that up and so many of you fell for it, you might want to wait until the NDA is lifted before having said discussion.
