I had the same experience when I played. Too many Destros, not enough Order. Who knew so many people would choose to play the evil badass looking faction over the elves and midgets? /sarcasm
Even if populations are evening out a bit, I have no doubt that the majority of the "stay up all night" power gamers will stick to Destro.
Ya I was on a couple of Destruction dominated servers until I went to Dark Crag... Order just runs over us constantly there. So it really just depends on where you're playing.
It took awhile for the sides to balance out... it is getting better as time goes on.
If anyone remembers WoW launch- exact same population issues and, as with both mmos, it is now starting to settle as things move closer to a year of polish.
@Monoxide: The difference in WoW was that population balance wasn't a requirement for a successful game.
I still can't believe Mythic had no systems in place to promote a balanced population from the beginning, when the game NEEDED a similar of ratio to even be playable.
Because playing WoW is so tiring, people need "fuel" to keep them going... Seriously though, I've heard nothing but good things about the flavour of this, so I'm probablly going to try and pick some up. Are these availible in Canada?
Oh Blizzard must you sell your game to every John of a product that comes along like a two dollar whore? At least some of the other product where at least cool (the overpriced gaming mouse, the T-shirts even the action figures.) The only people who are going to run out and buy this swill are the annoying kids and tards I have to block in trade and general chat. But then again I have heard mountain dew referred to as the "Nectar of the Tards" so bravo Blizz Bravo!
@Befitzero: People who enjoy various types of pop may also purchase it. If it's just a relabeled Livewire or Voltage I may end up having a bottle or two by the time it's run its course.
The capitalist in me wants to buy every different bottle of these produced, store them in a box in my room for YEARS, and sell them at an exorbitantly high price in a few decades. Actually, I think I'll do it. Yay, money.
"Does in-game allegiance carry over to the soft drink aisle, or can a player rocking a Gnome Warrior online partake of a drink with an Orc Shaman plastered across the label?"
Oh yes it does! For The Alliance! I will not have a filthy Orc on my bottle! (Yes, I'm serious) lol
So basically, this is Mt Dew Voltage and Livewire in a bottle with a Night Elf/Orc slapped on it? Whatever. Voltage still taste good. I'll buy it. And what the hell happened to Pitch Black? Dew + Grape Soda? C'mon. I can't be the only one who loved that stuff.
@Kanji08: With the exception of the original and Code Red, the rest of the Dew's are seasonal. Livewire & High Voltage typically coming out in the summer, and Pitch Black being held back until around the holiday season (usually first hitting shelves around Halloween)
And yes, I realize I shouldn't know these things...but I worked in food service for a number of years while in high school and you quickly get to learn when certain beverages come and go.

See, that is one of the reasons why I stopped playing WAR. Order hardly ever won on my server and it was way too lopsided majority of the time.

Rather unruly with their community, too... *looks at Mark Jacobs and Sonya*

Now if someone will help me gather a force of 8000 people so we can wage war on Goon in EVE Online.
