Catacombs was fun to explore but the instances definitely were a turn-off.
They also had nothing of value to PVP which I guess was due to the backlash or just distinction from TOA stuff.
Labyrinth of the Minotaur was also decent if youre into small-scale PVP like me. I duo'd with my gf as a skald and zerk and we spent a decent amount of time in there killing some mobs and enemies. Gank groups didnt really bother with the place.

I gotta admit, I do like the Labby exp. And the Lab is a lot different on Gaheris, as the mobs drop some different stuff. It's a fun place to go, gaheris or PVP.

Seth, not sure. They shouldn't be if you didn't delete them. They just keep them in the archived servers and you can transfer them to Ywain.

I tried to go back once after being gone for a long time. All I could do is sit there and be pissed about all the things I didnt like. It was entertaining but the game has left teh station for me and there is no going back.

The graphics have been improved, that's for sure.
Seth, you should be able to login and use the command to transfer to an Ywain server. Check the Herald for the details.
I knew there were more expansions, I have played very recently. I made a comeback for awhile during the merge of Percival and Nimue and for the classic servers. I was simply pointing to a couple of expansions that, in my opinion, caused the most people to abandon ship for greener pastures (WoW was the big thing coming at that time).

Wow the game still looks really really good, im surprised!
You know what sad is, why cant they try to revive this game? When i see those pics i see one of the best, if not the best MMO ever made in my book...that game was near perfect in most ways. Is Mythic still working on it or is another team via EA working on it? Or is it just there?
I mean it looks pretty freakin good if you ask me.
Has the cap ever been raised past 50? How much are the subs there? Thats a biggie...i think it needs to go FTP.

There are debates on whether or not it could be revived via a FTP model and a "pay for gear" store. I think with some advertising it could be.
Just from some VN browsing and checking the herald (not exactly great sources) most nights there are large forces from all 3 realms out and about. However, there is no longer a realm switch timer, so you can play whoever you want, whenever you want, FOR whomever you want.
It's very hard to compete against the ladder model of MMO's now. DAOC had a very tame version of this in the RR system, but people want bigger and better results. It's it easier at RR10 than RR1? Absolutely. But I've still seen RR10's die to RR1's just due to skill, timing, etc. Many people don't like that.
The cap hasn't ever been "raised" per se, but people would argue that Master Levels, and now Champion Levels (Darkness Rising) took the level cap past 50.
The sub cost hasn't changed since you activated your account years ago.

The cost of it is something I don't agree with. Although it's nothing I worry about, my account is comp'd because I was a Team Lead, lol.

I should have jumped on that bandwagon when the rest of Meiva did. Think we had 50%+ of the team lead spots in guild at one time.... for hib, anyway

There were certain things about being a TL that I was unwilling to give at that time. Now? Well, still no. Heh. |

I'm pretty sure one of the requirements of being a TL is being an active player, lol. Also, they don't have TLs anymore. They are now Knights of the Round Table, and divided up as Knights of Albion, Knights of Midgard, Knights of Hibernia, and Generalist Knights. They aren't class/server specific anymore. A lot of TLs left when this happened, because, IMO, it was pointless.

I've tried to get back into DAoC a couple of times, but I've given up on it. It'll just never be the same as it was pre-ToA.
