Why don't you try WoW TBC on private server? 

I've been seriously thinking about it for quite some time. So many nice memories....

The private server scene is not my style, but a very good suggestion though, I just like the sense of accomplishment in my character and I don't get that on private servers sadly.

Hmmm... even though you specifically mentioned that you played it in your OP I'm still gonna suggest it: Starcraft 2.

It's by far the most addictive game I've ever played simply because of how intensely competitive it is, and how skill-based it is. It's retardedly hard mechanically and super satisfying. I've probably played 5,000+ games and I still play 30 - 50 games every weekend and a handful everyday during the week.

I agree it is a very fun and satisfying game, but I just get much too stressed out when I play it, I dont know why but it happens sadly.

 YES! I love games like atlantica and I liked the pvp, even the pve was fun for me I managed to bank over 100m and get to level 60 on that game before I realized it was pay to win, and from then on the game lost its luster, as for WoW its really starting to die for me, the pvp is just a CC/heal fest, no real fighting goes on outside of duels. As for cabal I really think I might have to take another look.

I actually reached to 105 and i didn't really spend money on the item mall, but yeah that game will make you work hard for every gold you'll be getting to buy the stuffs you needded to have your character and mercs level up.

I just started WoW so i cant really tell the about the healing fest since im still newbie :O

if you ever change your mind just choose Mercury so that you can play with me. my IGN is panchan :D

Eve Online......

Defiance:  closed BETA and still under NDA but worth researching and after taking part in the stress test, last weekend's beta and openworld PvP, I had shedloads of fun!  There wasn't enough time to look into the strategy of the game but it was highly immersive and that's probably all I can get away with saying.  Nothing to lose by registering for the next beta event.

The Secret World:  PvP is a joke there at the moment and unless you research the faction-(cough)-"balance" and the dimensions with scrutiny, your PvP experience may prove unsatisfying.  But get it right (or wait for Funcom to get it right - er... lol?) and it can be awesome.  And the rest of the gameplay kicked ass for me too.  (Also had Crimecraft recommended to me - but the same guy recommended APB and that sucked, so I am wary). 

I can't tell you how tired I am of elves and shit so, again, probably not going to be giving you ideas that you'll actually like - but good luck in your search!

Yes someone else has mentioned Defiance, and your mention again has piqued my interest, so I will take a greater look into it, and just for your reference, phased like LoL kind of means like instanced if youve played WoW, there is no streamlined game its all just its own entity every single time. I feel your opinions though mate, thanks so much for responding!

Hey!

Have a look at Age of Wushu, open-pvp with heaps of PVP orientated events.

The combat is different but fun and challenging.

Currently open beta atm, free download.

Good luck!

AAh, thanks (never played WoW).  Hopefully see (kill) you in the next beta then.  ;)

I am an Old School Gamer. From the days of pong to now. I, like yourself , have been trying to find a New MMO with PVP. A place where PVP is the MMO. There is nothing new. Heres my Best of the Best List.

DAOC- (Dark Age of Camelot) Fast track leveling to Big Boy RVR or HAve a toon for each BG. But low population. Still the Best.

Eve Online - Doesn't fit your criteria (sci-fi) but PVP is amazing. Single PVP or massive fleet battles. But major time sink.

WOW- I play on a PVP server, so world PVP. A good amount of BG's. Needs an open PVP world like DAOC Frontiers.

GW2 - Only reason i list this is because it has Siege Warfare which i love. But i found myself quickly bored and running all over the place looking for a decent battle.

WOT - (World of Tanks) Not a fantasy mmo but needs an Honorable Mention. Great fill in when the Above listed get boring.

Good Luck in your search.

1 ghetto off pvpers Into meaningless trivial ctf style mini games
2 stupid separate special pvp stat.
3 grind tokens for gear, even if you loose you progress, so once you start loosing a pointless Mini game, roll over and die you get tokens quicker that way.
4 even when you introduce "outdoors" pvp, put it on a bloody timer so it plays exactly like the pointless minigames
5 sell the lie that is Esports within a mmo and waste an eternity trying to do impossible 1 vs 1 balance.

WOW KILLED MMO PVP

It belongs on a worst of the worst list.

You are either smoking something, or just trying to bash the game. None of that stuff has anything to do with PVP mechanics, and all those things are singular to this game. So how did this kill mmo pvp? Most people want something to come out of pvp i.e. gear rewards, titles, yada yada.... Everything that Blizzard has done in WoW pvp has kept people playing and wanting to come back to the game for years now. 

Sure I had my most fun times back in TBC and Vanilla World pvp, but not everyone wants to just pvp for the sake of pvp. To say that WoW killed mmo pvp is just idiotic. They are simply just trying to be open to a larger crowd, and I think that they have proven successful at that with the number of players they have.

Also your post has nothing to do with this thread at all
