Is there a game/mmo out there with good RvR/open world pvp?

I've done WAR in the past and have a max level toon (Engineer, got tired of getting pwned and the renown grind though) and it was okay. But is there anything else out there that maybe has a higher population?

I've kinda looked at DaoC lately, but I've been trying to look at the realm war updates on their website and it looks like there's like 50 people playing the game.

WoW doesn't have open world pvp, and neither does rift. Not interested in grinding out meaningless battlegrounds.

Kinda at a loss, as far as I can tell there's really nothing out there with any decent population to make the RvR fun :/

Uhh... How is Tol Barad and formerly Wintergrasp not objective based world PVP? I'm pretty sure (99.9%) that those are pretty much the definition of objective-based world pvp. Not to mention that there are many other objective-based world pvp that goes on all the time that you don't queue for. Just thought I'd point that out.

And as to the statement that "world PVP is dead". Couldn't disagree more. Me and 9 guildies went into Stormwind and racked up 2500 honor kills for the guild. So if anything is dead, it's a %@#% ton of alliance, not world PVP.

^ My 2 cents.

i think he just wants to slay folks "questing for nesingwary" if you will

he likes wasting carebears i think..

WWII Online. MMOFPS that's 99% PvP.

Bitter sweet news I'm afraid that style of MMORPG is long gone.

Dark age of Camelot gives me memories of RvR glory. It's just behind the times and hardcore players stay with it since nothing else comes close. Warhammer didn't cut it for me, I do miss my DaoC though what an amazing mmo experience. It's the only game where I made permanant online friends and memorable enemies, that doesn't happen in WoW with all the instant instancing/cross realm how sad.

I'm currently addicted to Darkfall Online. It is the most hardcore pvp game out there. The best way to describe it is the skill system is like Ultima Online, the combat is kinda like Mount and Blade and Dark Messiah of Might and Magic. Also, it is one of the few full loot pvp games out there. Anyone can loot anyone. It also has objective-based pvp. You can siege and take cities from other guilds and alliances.

I don't have population numbers, but I can tell you that there are enough people to easily get into fights on a daily basis.

Some say the grind makes this game like a Korean grinder. Well, they made huge strides to reduce the grind. With the most recent patch, you can gain stats offline. The stat grind was said to be the worst part of it.

Rift reminds me so much of World of Warcraft. Anyone here invest a good amount of time on Rift yet? What did you think?Elann2008

While Wintergrasp and Tol Barad may be pretty lame, emphasis on the TB part of that, they ARE world pvp. You are fighting real players from your realm over definite control of areas of the WORLD. That is the definition of world PVP. Whether you queue for them or not, they are objective based world pvp. Sorry.
