PvP and Gameplay

Haven't heard or seen anything about the PvP system and general gameplay for a concerningly long time.
After playing New World I can say if the PvP works anything like that, where if you're in the wrong faction you are penalized, this is gonna be a hard pass for a ton of people. The node system sounds very similar.

Is there any new info about the combat of the game?
Last I saw people said it had a long way to go and haven't heard anything else.
Did you ever decide on tab or action? That's a huge style of gameplay difference.

There is a story for this right?
I just realized I haven't seen anything about a story or lore behind this world.

    Lore is being kept a secret to keep excitement of discovery, Combat is being revamped again after A1, A2 will be released in roughly a year and sometime before it does you can expect to see everything you might need on combat. They have stated they plan on mixing a tab/action combat system together to create a hybrid and utilize the best of both worlds. Release isn't for a minimum of 2 more years, so in the mean time browse the forums and wiki and get lost in the worlds of other games, as this one still has a long way to go.

    We have indeed not heard much about combat. They're still doing a redesign, and keeping it entirely secret for the moment. There's been no indication of them dropping either Action or Tab combat, though. "Hybrid" is still on the table.

    Here's a rather long wiki page on the lore of Ashes of Creation.
