Returning Player/Balance between Factions

I just recently made a brand new account and eagerly checking every day to see if the servers back up. In between my religious competitive grind on Overwatch I have been looking for something else to play.

Warhammer was such a fun MMO back in the day for me. I do miss it and I wish I could have experienced the RvR in its entire glory. That being said whats really got me hesitant to download is faction balance of the game. Before I stopped playing there was a terrible one sidedness on my server. People would faction hop burn bridges etc etc. Is there much of a faction balance issue with this server? I would love to know! Ever since I found out about this server I've been dying to make a Black Orc but if Destro just wins every fight by a land slide it kind of ruins the mood for me. :P

Some smart guy said - if you wonna balance play chess.
PPl love to xrealm so one second you are taking castle - 4 mins later almost 50% of ur wb at defence of next one just waitng for you to come.


Almost no one wonna be on losing side, so this up to GMs to reward losing side with some bonuses.... maybe+ to add drop rate for items to side that few in numbers.

AAO its almost useless 40+ ... only premade would go in solo def 6vs40 in hope to get some RP.

GMs work to resolve Xrealmers issue but;

Before server was down situation anyway was quite clear - In t4 order was heavy dominated (both sc and rvr) by destro due to current lack of organization. Larger order guilds seems to be rather inactive or focused on use AAO privilege. In my opinion destro has now much more dedicated hard-core players (which i remember from AoR) and its much easier for xrealmers just to leech from their effort

On the other hand t2 - t3 was dominated by order side - some ppl claim that large amount of order solo players just have decided to make some alts while destro zergs t4

Thanks for the replies. :) I'm glad to see that there's feedback on this issue and hopefully as time passes they'll add in features to help with this issue. In a massive RvR intended game I suppose it's a difficult task to balance those little things. I was just curious and hoping for the best. :)

in the mean time I suppose I'll just have to wait patiently for the servers come up and hopefully they come up soon.
