I am not positive - but would lean toward it is the "first come" gets the spot , wins... iirc there is no #cap on how many players are aloud total per realm. So i bet it just maxes out at a certain number (they said they will raise it after starting low) and then people have to wait in the que if they are late to the party. This could be incorrect but it is most likely right.

Nice thanks, that youtube video on the main page is enticing... never played it because I was an EQ nerd who didn't want to leave my guild [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Worried that it's EA owned and they might pull it down but that's a risk anywhere, going to look into it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Nearly 100% for sure that a shut down will not happen. no worries. They already had this server open for like a year + iirc , but it was not fixed and not classic. The staff shut it down to revert everything to classic era (1.65 patch is what they are running).

- Uthgaard has a lot of potential to last a very long time. I bet it goes strong for 3-4 months at least if not all 2017. If You missed out on playing DAoC back in its prime then You would IMO enjoy playing this and should try it out. For those who played this already in the past , come get the > Nostalgia slap
it is Easy to install and has a simple guide to get you started to launch.

.
it works like this. 2000 spots total. 500 for each realm, 500 for those who have yet to make a character. there will be a queue, once you make it to the char select screen you have successfully gotten thru.

Exclamation 23 hour countdown!

Server LAUNCH inc

- Here is a link to the most current list available showing the big name guilds and which faction they will be playing for when the server goes live.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...hsY/edit#gid=0
Guild leaders have switched over their guilds to Hibernia realm and Hib has grown nearly double in size today! It is no longer on the bottom. Just counting today 3 big guilds switched Hib.

- Create a Albion class - HELP!!
The Albion realm is not hurting. It is just so close to having all 3 realms with a similar population (no mass outnumbered). So getting 10-20 more Albion players would be perfect. Please consider playing alb.
Join me and fight for Albion today ~
Just trying to even out the numbers since Hib got a huge boost today and Mids are maxxed out.

- The Midgard zerg does not need reinforcements. All DAoC servers always have a big population on the mid realm. It is going to be no different here ... They have the numbers advantage. But w/ the guilds that left Mid and switched today. Those guilds alone brought enough skill and coordination to the realms of Hib and Albs...which will even out the Midgard population advantage.


- The server will begin today ! Get ready to play . They will launch with a 250 person per realm max cap. Gradually increasing to 500 people MAX per realm. With the high population zerg that will be playing Midgard , it is going to fill up that Midgard realm (instantly) fast and then the Mids who missed out will get tired of waiting and decide to roll Alb/Hib (if they decide it fast enough and don't also miss out) because...The whole server will be maxxed out fast IMO. So be fast cause its first come wins. If you are slow , get ready to sit in line watching the que timer.

Watch...
The Uthgard server will hit max population so fast (near instant) after it goes live!


- [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Come try a Albion class! -

Ok, I have a question. I played some on the old Uthgaard server which was my first time playing DAOC. At that time I discovered that auto-training thing and I absolutely hated it. You know, that deal where you had to not train your key abilities until max level in order to get the extra training points for them. God I hated that.

So my question is: Did they take that stupidity out or does it still work that way?

Ok, since I apparently am not one of the cool kids here and was completely ignored I searched the forums over there and found out that auto-training is still in. Just thought I'd mention it in case anyone else reading this wondered.

Thanks guys!

I shall be there for the launch, Really like the rule set they have and the tone they have about enforcing those rules for those looking to bend them.

Nice - iirc I seen a few of your post over on the Uthgard forums.
Did you have a premade group or a guild in mind to run with?

I will be playing @ Albion too. I have not decided on a class yet (still open).
I'd like to setup (at the very least) a 3 person group to level with @ launch.

The amount of players and guilds committing to the Realms of Hibernia and Midgard have blown up over the past few hours . Expect both realms to hit the max player cap real fast. + The spreadsheet and the forums don't accurately count everyone. On top of the mass amount already committed , there is another group hidden/not even counted yet. The players that didn't make it public will also be fighting to log in adding even more of a over cluster .

Come join the realm of Albion! It will also hit the max cap fast , but You will have a higher chance to not be left out if choose to play Albs.
If you guys want to play @ launch you will need to be ready to log in fast.

From what I have gathered Uthgard is going to be a full server for at least a month and it is very possible that it lasts a lot longer.

The staff did say that they will start with a lower cap (guessing 250 per realm) and then gradually raise it. So if you do happen to be slow and end up in the que @ launch. Try to give them time to up the cap , just keep trying.
