Eve is the closest I have found to DT, learning curve is pretty steep though.

AC's pvp was the best simply because of the game's movement and a death penalty that could be managed with item drops. Free for all and no town guards hunting you or any npc behavior penalty. Land capture with the lifestones. No chat restriction. But that model is far from popular i agree.

No one quests or levels in the world anymore because its easier to just stay in town all day and grind professions between instance queues. I guess this is mostly understandable at cap level but while leveling the world is pretty empty and boring. My favorite part of this game was running quests and running into the enemy faction. Would there be an epic battle? Sometimes. Other times /waves were exchanged and business went on as usual. The point is the world is empty. Not only are there no enemies but there are no allies either. Every quest hub is a ghost town and low level instance group finder is the reason. This game is basically guild wars now with no pvp.


I suggest making it so the xp is greatly reduced in those low level instances on pvp servers. Something needs to be done to make it a game world again instead of back to back instances.



Having played on a pvp server for some years I can say that the world pvp "game" got old really quick. And, more often than not, someone had their max level toon "parked" somewhere nearby and would use that toon to just grief you into going somewhere else so they can quest unhindered or have to worry about being attacked themselves.

Wake the f up... there are no low levels. People aren't out there hiding from you on every server. They are playing their mains or they are higher level than you.

Unless it involves arenas and/or e-sports. Blizzard has no interest or reason to fix PvP.

World PVP is not part of the vision!

Maybe on April Fools day all servers should get a random chance to go PvP for awhile with no warning. Just "Poof!"
