Is the open world PvP much like Mordred?

errr depends what you mean really... there will be massive zergs no matter what zone you're in simply because of how rifts work :p trion said they would add a dedicated RvR zone if enough were interested.

FFA? No Trion would like to KEEP its playerbase.

From everything it seems to be a WoW/GW hybrid. May give it a go.

And if that was a pretty moronic stab at FFA PvP then bugger off. UO is still going nah?

It's faction based but you can PvP anywhere on PvP servers except the lowbie zones.

Yes, but none or very very few of the new FFA pvp games makes it.

FFA pvp is dying when it comes to new games, mostly because not that many ppl actually enjoy it, and the costs of making a new game today is to high to make it viable. MMO companies struggle enough as it is with "normal" games as it is. :)

So no, i wasn't stabbing FFA pvp, at least not much :)

Ahh I see, great shame as FFA PvP is the most enjoyable type of gaming imo. More I look at this i'm going to give it a dive as it seems like WAR.

Well, i kind of agree with you. FFA pvp can be great fun if done properly, problem is that they always have to throw in some stupid stuff like full loot or other crap that end up being just annoying.

Pvp should imo be done for the fun of it, not as something that is almost exclusively enjoyable by grievers.

And said stupid stuff is also the biggest reason (if not the ONLY reason) there are so few small groups or soloers running around in them.

And then it doesn't matter how easy it is to get the gear you lose, no one likes losing it.
