Guild Wars 2

Hi all,

I’d like to suggest a new feature called a Town. The basic idea is that two or more guilds can easily share a channel of communication and get together for various events or things.

• a little economic sink — would cost for example 10g to join two guilds into a town, or maybe some amount from both
• to leave a town, the leaving guild would pay some penalty, likely also a few gold
• would add a new chat channel, /town , perhaps /to to abbreviate?
• this chat channel can be easily toggled off and on so that things dont get too spammy
• could really benefit small guilds that may like to see if their townies are game for events when guildies are not online

ArenaNet could add more things, of course — town vault/missions/events, etc. Could possibly have more than 2 guilds in a town.

I’ve seen this once before in the simplest form — two clans allied in a town. Worked well to help gather people for game activities.

GW1 had alliances. Had up to 10 guilds in an alliance. Shared chat channel.

A town sounds like a cool idea. Should have a portals going to each guild hall. Each guild hall would have a portal to “town”. The town area could have it’s own unique things. Alliance towns could lead to alliance battles. Large scale structured pvp. 20v20 battles.

There you go! that’s thinking big! Didn’t play GW1, but massive pvp with townies sounds like a blast =)

Guild alliances really need to make a comeback.

little bump ;p
I think this could also help huge guilds trying to manage multiple branches in-game with ease.
