It seems with the success of Warhammer Online and it’s impressive RvR (PvP) system that PvP is back in a big way.  So big that the almighty juggernaut Blizzard is considering changing the way their current PvP system works.  In a recent post on the Blizzard forums, it was stated “we want to give you the ability to queue for Battlegrounds from anywhere in the world”. 

This is one of the best features that Warhammer introduced, being able to join a PvP battle from anywhere at anytime.  Not only will Blizzard be adding this to WoW, but I’m sure this will become a must have feature for all future MMOs that have PvP.

Apart from adding this feature, it seems Blizzard is reconsidering its entire PvP system.  After all if PvP is back they don’t want World of Warcraft to be left in the dust.

You can give some credit to Age of Conan for being the first big title to reintroduce PvP back into a stale MMO world, however considering the absolute debacle that followed, that’s all the credit that can be given.  Warhammer Online not only brought back PvP, but did it right straight out of the gate.  Having been there since launch on a open RvR server I have to say I’m having a blast.  While there was some skepticism that doing regular quests would turn into a ganking party, I can say this is not so.  While you do run into the enemy once in a while it’s not frequent enough to get you all riled up, in fact I enjoy it.  Finally PvP is back!
