Guild Wars 2

I believe this could be an interesting community activity.

Lets create a fan fiction made Guild Wars 3.

How would it work?

Any new features?

Whats different from other Guild Wars games?

Anything Storywise?

The game is pure sandbox with little themepark. All events are controlled by GMs and an event won’t be on a timer etc, they happen once and then they are done. The world is huge and there is open world PvP with castles sieges etc. Faction wars. Guild wars. There are ways to get cool extraordinary armor and weapons, they take time and you have to reveal most of the map to get them, and a lot of it plays out to be puzzles, secret areas, rare items, challenging enemies and bosses. There’s a few instances, for places like UW, FoW, Urgot’s etc. Those zones are huge and not small like in GW1. Combat is very action based like GW2 but without tab-targeting and there’s also second and maybe even third proffession like in GW1 and ArcheAge. You can destroy most things and you can also repair and build most things. There are mounts, racial mounts, legendary mounts etc.

Take GW2, make them say it’s everything like it but with more stuff so as to get a lot of GW2’s playerbase interested.

Release a beta for people who pre-order GW3 as to lock as much of the old playerbase, then have them realize it’s pretty much nothing like GW2. Then work on getting players who hated GW2 interested in GW3 by implementing content that would never be in GW2.

So raids and mounts. And holy trinity. More races, 15 professions and completely new lore.

GW1 with GW2 graphics = Done, best game ever made.

LOL. +1 that!

Ode.9126:

Even the wife said that is pretty much what EVERYONE likely expected.

with the evolution from gw1 to gw2 i think gw3 will be
a gemshop + chatwindow + warderobe + weekly story in chat

thats all – maby it will be a browsergame only so ppl can play it on smartphone too

im sick of gw 1, 2 or whatever why no gw2 4ever ? -_- like WoW, or gw3 with better action combat and big maps like tera or black desert..

Black Desert or Arche Age has visually pleasant character models (I checked many char creators). But I don’t know how chars look in the game play. At least, if full character editor is included, don’t look at vanilla Skyrim (char mods ok) or upcoming Sims 4 (terrible and outdated).

Couldn’t have said it better. +1

5x more content than GW2.

That would be a terrible game for a MMO.

GW1 success came from not being a MMO and being a B2P 3D Diablo with better PvP.
You do know that right?

THat doesnt work in a MMO.

It even used Click to Move model for movement. thats only popular in Asian community of MMO gaming.

Everyone has same base armor / health / stats / etc. Armor is completely visual. Weapons can be used by ALL races/classes. All professions have similar skill coefficients. All characters can melee or range, with similar skill types (knockbacks, blast finishers, combo fields, etc), completely based on player skill, not who is playing the most OP class atm. Each race/class has specials that they can perform (same coefficients as other classes special skills). Weapons grant different abilities to each race/class so combo’s can be created… Everything would be within equal power to others so no one skill/trait would be mandatory. Build diversity would be more readily accepted and players could “Play the way they wanted” without feeling inferior to other classes / races.

Just a thought.

Depends on how you define MMO. If MMO means having 6.5 million people partying up and playing a game that was way more fun than GW2 is currently, then I’d say GW1 was the perfect MMO. If MMO means watching a 200 player epileptic seizure on a world boss, then no, GW1 was not an MMO. Either way GW1 was a fantastic game, and another GW1 would be the best game ever.

My ideal GW3:

Graphics of ArcheAge Online.
Quest system of GW2
Openworld PVP, meaning I can kill anyone I want in the open world (or get killed).
Combat: Freestyle action combat like Vindictus has.
Character customization: More free, and indepth changes possible (refering to ArchAge Online for an example).
Offering Guild wars to be rewarding.
Open world PVP, fight over world bosses that spawn.

Less important ‘’living story’’ but more development of the world around me.
More attention towards PVP and the looks of the game (new weapon/armor skins).
More and GOOD looking character costumes in the cash shop.
Faster leveling experience with the old trait system.
Classes are more balanced and re-introduction of the missing GW1 classes.
Rework on the boring staff animations for Necromancer.

That is it for now…

It sounds like you’ve already found such a game.

Any game with forced open-world PvP is a game I’ll be staying a million miles away from and I’d imagine many PvErs would do the same.

I agree, having forced open world PvP is a No-No for me. But I’d like the option to allow openworld PvP IF we so desire.

There is a guild on my server that Trolls my guild, so I’d quite like to set them as an enemy guild so my guild can kill them in openworld!

But that’s the beauty of Archeage zones. Its both open-world PvP and PvE only at the same time. Zones shift from war to peace at higher levels, lower levels are safe-zones. Open water is of course free-for-all war with the pirates faction thrown in. There’s also a third continent (in addition to the west and east) that’s basicly WvW.

To imagine an AA system in GW2 (or GW3 in this case, heh), WvW is part of the PvE world. Its regular PvE zones on the PvE map, no different from Orr or Lions Arch. You got your “EB” zone and the borderlands surrounding it. Every week, these zones go into 5 days of war, ie regular WvW. After that, there’s 2 days of peace where the factions cant attack each other and do the PvE objectives in the zones (which of course would be far more complex than current WvW zones). Then its server reset and the zones are thrown into war again. Of course, the borderlands could always be in a state of “unrest” (ie regular WvW) while EB is the only zone that goes to a peacefull state for a short time.

This whole WvW being a seperate instance and dislocated from the world (its in the “mists”) is really not needed. One of the most impressive things in Archeage is that its just one, massivly epic, world. There are no loading portals. Seriously, you go from one zone that’s 5x bigger than a GW2 zone to another zone that’s 5x bigger than a GW2 zone and… you wont even notice it. You just ride down the road.

I hope GW3 can do this do too. Going back to GW2 from Archeage is like going from a cathedral to a cardboard box. Of course there are other things GW3 could “borrow” (building houses, boats, aircrafts and most importantly physics. Water in AA is amazing) but just creating that kind of open world in GW3 with the GW2 combat system and designs… Yes, I’d throw my money at Anet.

Totally!!

LOL I would NEVER go back to GW1, sorry. That mechanic is so yesterday and done.
