AoC pvp question

Hello, I've always read up on my favorite MMORPGs on these forums, but I've never had a reason to post. My favorite aspect of games is the pvp, and I've been trying to find a good pvp MMORPG. Recently a friend told me about Age of Conan. Supposedly this has a HUGE pvp aspect as I've read. I have been reading but I couldn't find much info about it, and I'm sure you guys already know the answer. My favorite type of pvp was Darktide pvp in Asheron's Call, where it was an all out battle from the get go, and the only people you could trust were in your guild or whatever. Will the pvp in AoC be like this?







EDIT: Of course I know it won't be the same, but will I be just as happy, and get the same rush I got from AC, knowing I could be ganked at any second?

    There will be PvP servers where you can be ganked any second, and without factions it will be nothing like AC, and that is a GOOD thing...

     

    Try the official AoC forums, or http://bymitra.com/ PvP info is all over about this game, i cannot think of how you aren't finding it...

    Cool thanks, I am totally new to AoC so I didn't know where to start my search... heh. But I think you misunderstood one thing, I like the guild thing, like a group of players getting together to help eachother survive the pvp. I hate the factions, like orcs are evil and can't fight other orcs. You could attack anyone, but you just didn't attack your little group of friends. Games need to trust players to make their own history. In AC, the most feared guy was talked about by lowbies like a god. Then a bunch of other guilds made alliances with eachother to defeat this one uber-player. That was history created by it's players, and I love it when games can do this. Anyhoo, thanks for the site I will check it out for all my future AoC concerns. Thanks!
