one thing you have to consider is that when people have been working on the same thing over and over with the same ideas, it's hard to see outside of the 9 dots. some people are to the point of only seeing 4 of the 9 dots.
anyways, who said CoX servers needed to be just like Mythics DAoC? Who said all CoX servers had to have RvR? Who said we would even use the same items as you currently find in DAoC?
i didn't
couple ideas to think about. Why do we even have to have releams? why couldn't the server have all 3 releams open for every one to travel and hunt in? Why couldn't there be custom monsters/items and custom skill/exp gain systems? obivously with a smaller playerbase, things would need to be different than on mythic servers.
Flexablility is one of the biggest things we are keeping in mind while building this server. Cause who wants to always have to use the same server as everyone else? If you want a server like mythic, script it. if you want on like UO, script it. If you want a fantasy porn land were monkeys run around with their thumbs up their but, script it and work on some new graphics (yes, these are customizable with our patch server)
anyways, just some food for thought here.
