Best MMO PvP you ever played?

1. TOA. (for some: NF)

2. Population.

3. The UI and graphics are rather too dated.

One other thing that Asheron's Call did that no other game did that completely changed the way PvP felt. Collision Detection. You couldn't stand inside of someone on Darktide. If you wanted to, you could back someone into a corner and they couldn't leave by running through you and your friends. They had to take their beating.

I don't think anything ever will match Darktide '99-'01. Those 2 years were the best, and unless some fans band together and have the ability create a new game it will never come back.

It's such a shame taht only a couple thousand people experienced what is the best PvP MMO of all time.

AC was probably the best pvp ever, you could counter anything with skill.

Really seperated the bads.

Darktide ftw. Miss the old days and my pvp bro Xevy and 10+ people hopping from one MMO to the next dominating everybody before PVP was really mainstream.

I want to play AC now =(

Runescape.

I had the most fun with solo and small group world pvp on Ultima Online, pre trammel. My second favorite and very close to UO was early SWG. Crazy fun world pvp, ability to purchase bases and make a class the way you wanted. The only bad thing on early swg was the server lag when many people were involved in a battle, it was horrendous lag fest time.
I also enjoyed Auto Assault despite having had the worst class balance in a mmo ever.

My vote goes to daoc as well.


I actually do still play it from time to time. I love loging on my eldritch, head out in rvr, use my atlantis tablet and shapeshift in to a sobokite (during night time ingame they are hard to spot since they are green just like the grass) then jump a full group by mezzing them then kill a caster or 2 before they figure out where I am, so much fun. That is not the only thing I do of course. But me still playing it is because of the great pvp.

Meridian 59. Full on PvP with an outlaw system, and servers small enough that player enforcement was actually possible.

Second was DaoC.

They fixed that six months in....it hasnt been that way for years and years and yes I just played it in November.

Determination, Purge etc all took care of that issue.

DAoC..hands down..no gear grind, once you had a template u were good to go...realm abilities...no two character were the same..

Guild Wars 1.

It is PvP that's based on the player/team skill. No gear gap, gear grinding, and unlim no cost respecs/pre-made builds.
