How sieging would be the best thing ever.. if it just worked..

It's one of the first things ever that's more awesome in reality than in theory! The fact that you could actually have your own "kingdom of heaven" scene where the wall has been destroyed and you hold the enemy off at some chokepoint. Or hunt down those you can when they're on the run. Or perform a fatality in the middle of a guild clash! Your men on one side, theirs on the other and you in the middle decapitating your victim! 

It's WAR, pure and simple. They actually pulled that off. It's not just Tol Barad, where you're only really doing it so you can do your DAILIES afterwards, it's 10000000% more meaningful. YOU and your GUILD defend the Keep that you BUILT. If you haven't done a siege in AoC before, go watch Kingdom of Heaven then go DO a siege, if you're not in a guild just /tell some Guild Leader if you can be their mercenary! AND watch how similar the movie and the game is. It's mindblowing. 

... then there's the catch, and it's a gamebreaking one.

Not only is there 50/50 (probably more) chance of crashing, but you get constant server lag. And it's bad, really bad. Imagine how awesome the PvP would be, if it would just WORK.

This is my first and only rant, because this truly is the one and only thing that bugs me about the game. That something so fantastic can never be enjoyed on the level it was meant to. It could define the game, because it really is THAT great. But it doesn't work. 

Ah well!
