i am thinking if i should start playing here but first i need to know this
will the lvl 80 pvp be all about arenas once more or will there be other ways (some sort of rated bgs maybe?) to get best pvp gear ?

well ask yourself the queastion. Did Wotlk have Rated bg's? when you find and ansver to that you will know if there will be rated bg's here :)
i also said "once more" obv i played wotlk in the past, i know rated bgs werent there but it was just an example, so to put it in another way
will there ever be an alternative to arena for high end pvp?
they could come up with some honor system like the vanilla one, just not as punishing ofc
There should be Winters Grasp world battleground, I do not recall on which patch it opened, but after WOTLK progression release for one season you will get high end PvP gear by doing Winters Grasp and collecting marks.
I doubt there will be any custom made rated Battlegrounds or smth like that, however they said there will be PvP event in Hillsbrad Foothill - deathmatch style battle for chest which contains coins, I think they said it will be on Lordareon but not sure.

thanks for the info :)
EDIT: i think the WG gear came with Trial of Crusader (3.1.3 ?), yea i remember getting good pieces from WG there but it wasnt the best you could get with arenas
