The Albanians, these tigers of mountain wars ... have as their religion rebellion. Even their worst warrior is one of the strongest and bravest on the battle-field, just as if he was a knight on the legendary horse. But he has no horse, nor proper weapons for battle. Instead of the horse, he has a lance which strikes as lightning, he has spears who's points are full of posion as the sting of hornets, he has also a wooden bow with some arrows. Furthermore, he is stronger than iron ...

It did share many similarities with Balto-Slavic. I would say it was much closer to Baltic than Slavic though. It's probable that other non-Hellenic Paleo-Balkan languages were similar to Balto-Slavic, this is going by the fact that Albanian shares similarities with that group and so does Daco-Thracian. Though I don't think we can say that it actually was a Balto-Slavic language.

Dacians spoke two languages like people in Serbia.
In Serbia 15th century Latin and Serbian were both popular, but later Serbian was enforced while Latin discouraged (Church Schism issues etc..) eventually Latin speakers
were all been taken back in Serbian.
Dacians knew Slavic language, Vlad Dracula spoke Slavic language but a lot of people knew Latin and eventually they abandoned Slavic and became Latin-only, that could have happened in Serbia as well.
True language of Dacians before Roman Empire was Slavic, but they in remembrance of Trajan, Galerius and others contiuned speaking Latin.

http://www.kroraina.com/thrac_lang/thrac_9.html. I don't agree with the summary part, but it does give decent examples of cognates with Thracian
