from what i understand archeage is not open pvp, or full loot. You are restricted to a pvp island and battlegroundfs only. Also slain players do not drop all their loot when they die. I heard a poll to try to get a full loot open pvp server. Has anyone heard anything else on this? I had high hopes for archeage at one time but now i dont think its gonig to replace my current mmo. Still ill give it a try though.
there are 2 types of mmo, imitators and innovaters.

Yeah its the 3rd island your right about that. A freind let me play on his account for like 2 hours and he made me stop playing, but when i went to the 2rd island i probally got him killed like 4 times, but i didnt drop anything(main items at least) also the res sequence is wierd this goddess comes out with blue light its freaky. That all I got to do pretty much try the glider sail the smallest boat goto the 3rd island and die. I wanted to try more but no time.
Afaik you can kill your own faction and become an outlaw... that would essentially mean you can make your own factions if you travel to the 3rd faction and create a outlaw guild etc. LF Confirm from someone who has played. ;p

What are you talking about? IT IS OPEN PVP. Maybe not full loot, but you can kill anyone anywhere you want. Even inside towns.
@Weretigar: bullshit, there isn't any goddess when you die. Don't go around spreading wrong informations please. PvP is not restricted to the 3rd continent.
@kuro1n: the player faction system/outlaw faction is not ingame yet. For now, we only know what the devs said, aka if you have too many crime points (that you get from killing players from your faction or stealing ressources), you're expelled from your faction.
All FFA PvP is exploitable and it still allows griefers to dominate the bulk of the content.
I won't be able to do any of the things they will use to sell the game, like build a house, a barn, a boat andbecome strong because I will be griefed at every corner by the FFA PvP system.
Correct?
Translation, you don't understand the difference of a well-made FFA PvP (EVE) and badly made FFA PvP (DFO).
EVE vet here, 6 years+
450K 8 years in is the destiny of Archeage? Yea, it's going to rock the MMO world. Break all the molds, be the new EVE killer. Tell it to Perpetuum. They were going to be an EVE killer too.
You all assume I came here to somehow bash your baby or some crap. You hope I don't understand FFA PvP and how it regulates progress. I do though and I know the second people see FFA PvP they are going to walk away. It's a death mark.
Didn't you ask a question that you knew the answer for at the start of the thread? That seems like game playing.

P.S. Thank you Jae-Sun

That is not why those games failed, if PVP is not your cup of tea then thats why you dont like them.
myself I love open world pvp and being able to get killed where ever I am, its brings a little extra thrill to the games..
