WvW was losely based of DAOC's RvR. ESO isn't loosely based it's a straight up copy. More importantly, this sieging,zerg warfare style of the game was a HORRIBLE fit for GW2's "Role-less" classes. Unlike in DAOC there's no tactics in GW2 that can't be boiled down to "Have more DPS than the other side." It also had the same problem WAR had, which is that if you were getting your ass kicked you just went into a different zone,which lead to endless zone hoping as the zergs shifted.

ESO plays much closer to DAOC, with dedicated roles, Anyone can stealth, a vastly larger single fighting area, longer tearms for "scoring" (the campaigns last months instead of GW2s weeks), and much better mechanism for population balance.

That text of yours is annoying to read.

I fixed it*

you played a different game than I did. Stealth in DAoC was limited to the rogue classes.

I think they tried to combine DAoC and GW2 in Cryodil. the DAoC combat, castle siege is great the GW2 guild (social) aspect not so much

I have played both....similar, but with enough differences that AvA holds my interest much, much, much more.

Also you are right about that, I was just listing it as something that ESO has that GW2 doesn't that was my mistake.

People compare the two because logistically they are the same.

The highly customizable characters are essentially the only difference.

Ehh GW2 threw away the trinity and is more simplified, plus ESO pvp is actually a huge part of the story.

While I see your point what do logistics have to do with it?

Logistics is the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Management of the flow of goods between the point of origin and the point of consumption in order to meet some requirements

I think he meant "Logically "

Not being able to switch to another realm if you are losing is HUGE. That is the biggest and most significant difference between Gw2 and ESO in my opinion. In Gw2 you can just bale anytime things start to look bad. In ESO, you can only change Campaigns once per 24 hours and it will cost either valor points or gold or both.

This will force alliances to work together and form strategic counter attacks to gain back what they have lost. Instead of just leaving and going to a zone where your faction/realm is winning.

If i am not mistaken also you can't change home campaigns ain't it just the guest ones you can change every 24 hours?. The home one is supposed to be yours for the entire campaign. Which is 2 - 3 months i think i read.

Yeah I thought this was the way it works.

Plus the reason you are losing is probably not numbers since their is a cap per faction that can play so it isn't like 1800 Dominon and 100 pact and 100 covenant players.

Unless a lot of people qued for the campaign you chose and they just decided to not log on at all.

I figured I'm just in one of those moods tonight

The campaign i was in DC won and tended to dominate for the most part. Ah good times

Looks exactly like what I was saying. I guess everyone has a way of interpreting meaning.
