Time for a new Open-World PvP, Sandbox game!

Hey guys I have played Elder Scrolls Online for about a month now and there's really a lot of things that I don't enjoy about it. But anyway, I am looking for an MMO that gives me a sandbox feel to it. I played Darkfall: The Unholy Wars, which wasn't bad but it was infested with hackers and what not. I like open-world PvP, battlegrounds, PvE Raids, Flashpoints/Dungeons, and I am more of a hardcore MMO person who likes persistence, if you die, you get looted, but it doesn't have to have that.
Here's some of the major things I want to have in the game:
1-Open World PvP
2-PvE Raiding (8/16/32, one or more of those types)
3-Group instances/Dungeons or Flashpoints
4-Battlegrounds/Warzones
5-Open Loot System (hardcore)
A game with most of those features would really interest me, I am just bored in ESO where all I feel like I'm doing is quest grinding, the PvP is crap when your under level 50 or even 50 with Veteran Level 10's killing you easily, and the Dungeons are mediocre at best.

I don't think a game with all of that exists. I'd like to hear about it though if it does.
For open world pvp, full loot, and still having some PVE content I only know of Mortal Online and EVE Online.
Neither forces you to quest, MO doesn't even have any quests after the tutorial.
EVE probably has the more ironed out PVE game, and is more polished in general by a long shot. At the same time though you play a spaceship whereas MO is a fantasy setting. MO is one of those games made by a dude in his basement and run similarly. it has a lot of minor bugs but is very playable if you don't mind its faults.
you won't find battlegrounds or instanced content in either.
Sadly, outside of EVE Online there just doesn't exist a really well made sandbox game I know of with well integrated PVE and PVP content.
Well eve online will give you PVE raiding and open world pvp with open loot system. It kinda has dungeons to. If you get a ps3 you can play dust with it which will give you warzones and battle grounds, and that also has basicly open loot system.
It's up to you but I can definitely tell you that there is no "hacker problem" in dfuw. I'm not gonna say nobody hacks, but I don't think I've ever had a situation where somebody has killed me unreasonably quick to make me suspicious. And a lot of people have pvp videos that make it pretty obvious that they're just good, not hacking. So again, I can't say nobody hacks obviously, but I have no reason to think it 's a problem.
Also, I'm not sure how long ago you played but a lot of stuff has been added over the past year (since launch). And the forthcoming combat update is going to completely change the game. Essentially they're getting rid of classes and giving everybody the ability to pick and choose their abilities. The details haven't been released yet (because they're still working on them) and there's no official date for it, but it looks like it'll probably be sometime this month.
Yes, good advice. Definitely be ready to get rolled and lose gear bags! Though I definitely disagree about the hacker comment. I pvp a lot and if I've ever run into a cheater, I wouldn't have known it. Like I said before, I have no reason TO think people are hacking, so it's really not a problem. Some people are more suspicious than others though, and some people are just looking for excuses when they die to somebody.
