Some Important Features

The everchanging world map - each Realm will be trying to reshape it to their benefit through conquering territory

It will be based on strong Realm (also, guild or even class/race) pride, connected to the unique classes (non-mirrored between different Realms), deep lore and history of conflict;
Custom made engine (already able to handle many hundreds of players in a small area), crucial for good performance in large scale battles;
The truly dynamic world made of islands that will change both appearance and position depending on each Realm's territory control and placing of powerful stabilizers;

Player made buildings (Alpha)

Players will be making their own abilities out of components, giving the unprecedented level of depth to the character customization;
Complex server-side physics, connected to players' body, mass and fully destructible player-made buildings.
Territory conquest and reshaping of the world will be based on massive sieges with hundreds of players both in attack and defense;
Everything in game will be built or crafted by players, and both buildings and items will decay over time thus giving much more significance to builders and crafters;
Leveling will be horizontal, making the difference between veteran and new players much smaller that it normally is in similar games; This will make it much easier for the beginners to join the war.
