Like Derid said, it's alot of speculation now, they don't release much information. So that's good news for you and other new followers, you don't have much to catch up on.

Take a look at their world map though and learn the races and where each one starts out. That's some of the only real info we have. Other than that you probably already know it's not a loot based game so items wont play a large role in your pvp ability; and that it's a full loot system. Oh and we get to have boats and battleships!
