Faction based PVP (player vs player) is when the game's community is divided to half, thirds, or more on separate sides (I.E. Good vs Evil) that for whatever reason in the game's lore, they hate each other. And in most cases, you cannot even speak with another player of an other faction. I believe this is the best form of PVP in a MMO. But at the same time, I would never play a MMOG with factions for PVE because the community to find people to raid with is devided by half or more. (MMOGs with player made factions don't count, I'm only looking for games with set factions.)

I'm mainly interested in WoW's PVP vs Warhammer's PVP. But please keep the trolling as low as possible. And please don't vote 'other' and vote for a game that just came out or that is not even out yet. :|

Eve Online's pvp has pretty good realism, in that if you get podded you can lose alot depending on what implants your character had and if you had bought a proper clone. Yeah WOW pvp is a joke unless your an 8 year old Dunno much about faction based online rpgs..

I'd say AoC..

I honestly believe that if AoC grabs a few hundred/thousand more players it will be the best game on the market besides EVE

I thought that Pirates of the Burning Sea had an interesting inter-nation PVP system, where you complete quests to cause unrest in ports, which then become capturable battlezones, etc.

Age of Conan doesn't have set factions, only player made factions (guilds vs guilds).

DAoC, and Aion are both great, far better than WAR. (keep an eye on Aion, Fall '09)

Age of Conan doesn't have set factions, only player made factions (guilds vs guilds).

A couple months into release, guilds didnt even matter, AoC was true FFA PvP, until they patched it to where you couldnt attack guildmates.... those were the good days.
