http://forums.darkfallonline.com/Darkfall is a MMORPG that is currently under closed beta AFAIK, it's been under construction for about 8 years now
Some of its main features(That I know of): •Unrestricted PvP, No safe zones.
•Six playable races, Dwarves, Alfar, Orks, Humans, Mirdain, Mahirim.
•Open ability system, more than 1000 skills and spells in total.
•The skill cap is 100 - No actual leveling system, system similar to runescape where you level up individual skills by performing/training with them.
•You can have pets and NPC hirelings.
•Real-time combat, with manually aiming and firing/fighting.
•Players can control seige weapons, sail boats, build houses etc.
•You can fight from your horse and ships with your crew firing the ships cannons (SEABATTLES!!!)
•You can use elevation, choke points, reverse slopes, tree lines, rivers, plateaus, etc. to your tactical advantage.
•Friendly fire is always enabled.
•Swimming, jumping etc is enabled.
•Characters start out with a neutral alignment, and based on your actions this alignment changes.
•The world is HUGE. Possibly the largest single online game world ever created.
•Clans can build their own cities. Cities can be built MOSTLY anywhere (on the peak of a mountain, on top of a glacier etc.)
•Smoke and fire coming out of buildings, structures or equipment such as boats and siege weapons show the extent of damage they've received
•Monsters and creatures do not have levels either. They simply get tougher the further you walk out of the newbie areas
•Unlike certain MMOs where you can find platemail on a rat, Darkfall will have none of that. What you see is what you get
•The AI is also smart enough to notice when people are camping spawns. In-game events can be triggered to stir things up, encouraging parties to continue exploration rather than stay in one spot
•Heads can be severed
•You can level entirely from PvP (No PvE required if you don't want)
•All items in the world can be created by players
•Items can be invented by the players, with the item creator system
•Weather plays a significant role.
•There will be an ingame browser
•The official release will be sometime next year.
•THIS GAME IS P2P.
I would write more, but Heroes is on so...
