WoW is the first MMO I put proper hours into and still the only MMO that had PvP I enjoyed, and I played the crap out of it as well Commander/+100k HK/3xGladiator and so on. And boy did I enjoy it whether it was dicking around at crossroads, dueling in Dun Morogh while waiting for the one hour BG queues to pop for an epic 15vs15 Arathi Basin premade vs premade or TBC arenas.

After TBC the game died for me though and I had to quit due to irl anyway and never came back properly, not touched the game for +2 years now. PvP in the few MMO's I've tried after WoW have lasted me between one hour and two weeks, GW2 being the biggest disappointment.

Oh and I also missed season 1 Gladiator by 1 damn rank, thought we had it but nope.. And I was close to Marshal when guild decided to migrate to another server and reset my progress fml.

Just can't say a bad word about the 'flow' of movement of WoW's PvP. You look at old videos by Vurtne, for example, and I am just blown away by how he controlled his character, especially at that time absolutely everyone was a backpedaling nublet. He just looked so smooth when he played.

So I tried a private WotLK server, was really fun. However, I still felt like I was playing in a long-forgotten sandbox, living in the past.

I still wish someone would take the WoW engine, rebalance all the specs, and release a proper arena-and-bg only game. Shit, I'd be down to help develop it (I've shipped multiple AAA software titles). Something with the drop in/drop out style of a MOBA, but the gameplay of MMO. Why is this so hard? Does anyone know if there's an SDK for the WoW engine?

This is why Old WoW is the only pvp I can stand in the MMO genre. So good -- the control. I feel that's why GW2's pvp isn't popular, it feels clunky.

WoW's PvP has too many issues with class balance / gear advantages. Would be great if it had not, used to be so much fun.
