working fine for me
Yes and no. There are bugs with it, such as getting suck inside other players. I remember this time recently when I was flagged for PvP, and wanted to respec so I use my book of binding to teleport to my bind point. Unfortunately some other guy was AFK and PvP flagged at the bind point, so I ported in and was stuck and couldn't move, had to wait for my PvP flag to drop. Other than that it works great and is nice for PvP, makes it more tactical and allows tanks to be of better use
There are a few "knockback" abilities (which knockback or throw people like 30ft in a direction), but you cant push people back just by walking into them.

Such a missed opportunity - you'd soon learn never to go afk near a cliff
Last night alone I saw 20+ people go over cliffs due to knockbacks! The majority of classes have some form of knockback, some even mass knockbacks.
If that was next to the keep and Empire Warcamp in Reikland, one was me
... three times :/
ok, what is zerging?
Will give this game a look when its launched, not played anything of it so far, kept away and waiting to be blown away by it
Hope i get a guild to join as my WOW one seems to have died.
<ColiN>
At last, another game with a repulse type skill...classic MIR.

I always understood Zerging as rushing the enemy i.e. Take over their base quickly.
Im also wondering what server everyone (or the majority) will be playing on?

ahah yeah. I normally play destruction, but it looks like my guild is swaying towards order for OB and retail, so started playing order last night.
Zerging is what the russians did in world war 2 , get loads of people, run them at the enemy and let the sheer weight of them overrun the enemy. Tends to work really well in the early days, then not as well later on once people get clued up.
The phase comes from the Zerg race in Starcraft 1, which could pump out loads and loads of really weak units very early in the game.
So you'd be well chuffed at having gotten ten marines built, and you'd get invaded by a swarm of zerglings

Zerging is quite efficient really from what I've seen, just pile the numbers and people will break. It kinda sucks that zerging works, and it's naff that the people being zerged just run away... ah well
It'll change. Late last night I (WH) was with a BW and two RP (admittedly not the ideal setup) wandering around, and we had loads of clashes with small groups - lots more fun than zerging, and once people start getting bored of it, there should be lots more small group RvR to be found.

CC is limited, nothing like the days of DAoC. Most classes either have some form of root, snare or stun and if they don't they can usually spec these skills through mastery skills. Lots of knockbacks too.
