For beta when we finally get it.... not really. Having people run around as a few different races/starting locales might be good.

For release, things will depend on what we learn between now and the end of beta. As I understand things at he moment, if release started right this second, no more info, no beta- we would all go one race, one starter town.

It will all depend on how difficult it really turns out to be, to mix and match races. We are ARAC, as far as guild philosophy but at start time we dont want everyone to be 6 hour run through hostile land away from each other.

Once we are in a position to no longer work out of/operate in the NPC cities, it wont mater what races people play.
