Before WOW, there were MMORPG''s. After WOW there were online solo single RPG''s.

From many posts, it sounds like DAOC is nearly a ghost town.  However, it was a great game in its day, and in this new era of worsening game designs, DAOC is looking pretty good to me right now.

As Warhammer falters and fails, do you think DAOC might have a resurgence?

I'd love for DAOC to go back to its glory days, Warhammer dosen't hook me like DAOC did, all they would have to do is put Origins server in motion or just give me a deal on War+DAOC sub. Only reason i'm still playing War is since my friends are enjoying it and i'm hoping 1.1 will make the game better. Also hoping the Dwarf Slayer comes in . But honestly I have a hard time believeing it will have a resurgence.

There are 3 kinds of people - those who can count, and those who can''t.

No.

Daoc cant come back.

Just like SOE, Funcom with AOC & Turbine with AC2,

Mythic  now sees the average mmorpg player as a dumb kid.

Time to move on with companies which have a clue,

Companies that thinks the average mmorpg player actually have some kind of a brain.

I intend to live forever -- So far so good!

If warhammer starts stagnating and sees any kind of exodus I have a feeling that a good chunk of the players playing WAR will go back to DAoC since it is where they came from.

In the end there's no real way to tell.  They could put out Origins and see if they draw back any people and if it has any longevity attached to it.  Other then that I'm sad to say that I don't think DAoC will ever be what I remember it being.

Gosh, I hope so.  I have a feeling that Origins is being delayed for fear of the impact it might have on Warhammer.  Could be, eh?

It's one of my theories as well.  I think they're holding it back because they don't want to drain population from their newer games and end up looking like they don't know what they're doing since their older game is better.

I don't think so, and if you read the opinions of people who post here in this thread as well as the others you'd realize that what most of us here are looking for is not Warhammer.

Greatest threat to society is letting casualties of puberty reproduce.

DAoC was truly great minus the botters. Warhammer has nothing and to me felt dead in comparison.
