I think it should be like DAoC, but the factions should be Christians, Muslims, and Jews. The Suicide Bomber class can rock ass in fortress assaults, but you're always having to reroll.

MMORPG.com: Combat is something a lot of games have tried to spice up, but after years, we still hear people talking about “go get a sandwich combat”. What are you doing in Crusade to address the tedium of some RPG mechanics? David Allen:
Combat is a double-edged sword in MMOGs. Many people like the simple “command and execute” while others want more FPS-style “tweak” control. I wish I could tell you we’re designing the next best combat system, but the fact is that we are simply going to design the system that works best for our game. Will it be similar to other MMOGs? Probably. Will it be revolutionary? Probably not. But will it be Evolutionary? Yes. Point in fact, if our players are too busy enjoying the game to think about how they don’t like combat, we were successful.
He's not trying to make a WoW clone. He's trying to make an EQ clone. If the combat won't be revolutionary, it'll just be a clone, and since I'm sure that other MMOG's will come out and this one never will before Allen leaves the industry in a snit again, I'll back those MMOG's.
What is tweak combat? Is that when you twist your nipples as you play?
Also, Deities are gods. Choosing a deity means you worship that deity. How could anyone think that means religion is involved?

You know... marketing a "force feedback controller" that acts like a hammer to the sack may make you a wealthy man. It seems people are really wanting abuse while playing online games.
