Wayback Wednesday with our own Grakulen will be hosting a live chat and game play session with Dark Age of Camelot devs tonight in the MMORPG.com Live Stream channel. This is definitely something you won't want to miss so be sure to check in at 9:30 p.m. EDT.

I never understood why people speak so highly of DAoC PvP.

Ultimately, it's still just PvP in a dedicated area. I yearn for something much more. I want meaning for PvP within the ENTIRE GAME.

This is the best game ever...the best pvp ever...the only game that delivered pvp FOR ME for more then 3 years....the game where ive played FFA PVP....the game that brought real wars between guilds on Mordred (FFA Server)...the game that made me park alts in keep to defend easily while my main char was in another place...the game with players that were calling you during the nite: "Wake up, we are under attack"....the game where after a major fight your body was shacking. 

Imagine being able with full group of skilled pvpers to farm a guild of 20 people that were getting ready to farm some open world dragon. 

This is by far my 1st game for me and the best game who tought me that "Everyone is KOS" is really fun.

God Bless you DAOC Team, God Bless the ones that work on DAOC 2 :)

And this is the 1st post ive made since 2004..for the only game worth mentioned atm :)

See EVE.

For what it offers, DAOC was a remarkable experience (still is I suppose).

I preferred to play on the FFA (red) servers however I was part of a minority unfortunately.

RIP Andred/Mordred

MmoDad: Daoc had 2 Free for all servers, Mordred and Andred where you could PvP all over the game. The entire game was a FFA area where you could kill any1 but your guildies...and that was awesome :)

Kyleran, who were you on Mordred/Andred and with what guild have you played ?

DAoC PVP was watered down .. except on Mordred.

The pvp there was some of the best I have ever had in a long line of PVP titles.

Yes I didnt fully loot people, but getting gold drops and realm points was pretty fun and made it worth while.

Never played the normal pvp rules DAoC servers mainly because I dont like battle grounds and the idea of not being able to chat with people of other factions seemed HORRIBLE to me.

I"ll be the first person to say Im not a huge fan of pvp, however, DAoC was some really fun pvp in my eyes. It was very delightful and just a fun experience for me and it opened me up to pvp in games after that.  Plus it was always fun to see in the chat box.....

"PlayerOne was just killed by Priest".. then you had to watch your back for PlayerOne to come back and try to kill you specifically to make them feel better hehe. (yes, my name was Priest *smile*.)

No other game will ever have this ammount of races/classes combo. :)

Well, see, this is where you don't understand the concept of (normal) DAoC:

The idea is community, not free for all.

I mean, why would you fight with your buddy? For the fun of it? Fine... it's called duelling and yes, is in DAoC within the realms.

But the actual enemy is sitting out in the battlegrounds! They are the guys you want to beat to pulp. And thanks to DAoC's system getting out of the battlegrounds and into the other realms was pretty much not happening, so, one more reason why all over the place PvP wasn't needed.

Might be that I'm looking at this from a more civilized time of MMOs though... *shrug*
