Guild Wars 2

Open world pvp, the best and worst thing about any mmo. Nothing beats the warzone feel, ambushing people, setting road blocks. It’s pretty kitten cool, unless you’re the guy getting ganked by people 50 levels higher than you. Nonetheless, it’s something I miss. Frankly no mmo with mobs has ever pulled off fair open world pvp. APB, exceptional pvp, this is the system I base this on.

If you haven’t played APB, it’s a pvp based TPS. Players are automatically paired up with people from their faction and fill each other with lead in objective based battles, while still in an open world.

It wasn’t perfect, I missed the open word feel that I’m offering here. One that wouldn’t hinder the gameplay of poor pve players. Next to the SPvP icon there will be something cool, like a skull or something. There you can choose a faction, for example, in the human starting zone, it’ll be bandits vs lionguard or seraph, the party will be re-colored to the factions colors (gold for lionguard) For more race based factions, like the nightmare court, players will have their races changed, for immersion purposes.
While this seems counter productive since it breaks the player’s immersion, I believe it will be nice to not see charr and asuras dressed as nightmare court.
