My first post on this forum, I'm looking for a game that fits...

Alright,

I used to play WoW, and i work as a GM right now at a free to play MMO company.

I'm looking for a game that is basically WoW, except extremely team PVP based. The gameplay should hopefully be the same kind as WoW, and the team pvp should hopefully be one of the ultimate goals of the game.

 

 

What am i looking for?  (I'm willing to pay for the game, if its worth it lol)

    Try the Games list link above, lots to choose from, MMORPG.com has great info on all the games in the list and links for each one.

    Really would be better to try this first, hope this helps.

    Although i do believe in "search first", the list doesnt say what kind of pvp/gameplay the game has.

    Yeah id go with guild wars, though there isnt as much of a variety of spells in Guild Wars than WoW.... from what know from playing guild wars... wow is better, in many ways. I dont know that youl find a better game than WoW until AoC comes out wich is in like 5 days. Id waid for that if anything.

      I think you should look into WAR (Warhammer) to sate your list of desires.  It appears to have similar gameplay as WoW with an RvR PvP focus (which is a bit larger in design than 'just' team based).  I cannot say whether or not the game will release and BE the game you are searching for...but their list of concepts and design direction are at least pointing in that direction.

      But, otherwise, there really are NO games out right now that play like WoW...AND focus almost completely on PvP.  The few which feel like WoW at all are massively focused into PvE, and their PvP (if any) is horribly imbalanced.

      If you are willing to let go of your gameplay requirements, then your options are larger.  Fury, GW, and even EVE are PvP focused games which revolve around teams (though EVE is more about large and powerful corporations).  None of those play like WoW at all, though.  GW is too pathed, and uses a point/click movement system.  Its slower as well, in combat.  Fury is a very small game...and it did not attract too many players when it hit shelves.  I'm not sure why that is, and I'm not going to spout off things I don't have the first clue about here to you.  Look into it for yourself and see what its about, then decide.

      EVE is a ruthless, cutthroat, cold, empty, beast of a PvP game.  I would advise against it unless you not only LOVE PvP...but love politics and political war games as well.  Oh, and you'll need to be a fan of pre-planned, strategic PvP instead of the quick action of WoW.

     

      Above all, watch WAR.  It was the first thing I thought of when I read over your wish list.

    If you click on the name of the game you will be presented with information about said game with more links to the official site, with more information at that site as well as the sites forums and screenshots,( if the games & site have there act together.)

    Don't get me wrong, I got no problem giving suggestions to someone who has been trolling thru the game list and played or tried other games for any length of time and then comes back stumped and undecided about what still to play, but new people who have only really played WoW up till now, really need to go thru the Game list and swim down and touch the bottom of the list and see that there are lots of games like WoW and lots of games that are not like WoW, not to mention that when they surface again, they might already have a few ideas of what they do wanna try.
