Guild Wars 2

I don’t really know why a game called “guild wars” does not have guild wars, clan wars or whatever u want to call em. I think Devs should implement some kind of competitive guild mechanics in sPVP and WvW/PVE, guild tournaments 10 v 10, 20 v 20, 30 v 30, at sPVP would be nice to see (special death match oriented maps for this OFC).
In WvW may be atcking or defending keeps/towers from enemy guilds to get points something like that, a real reason for a guild to Own a position and defend it instead of just roaming and zerging arround. May be some specialized uber hard raid events/achievemets for PVE guilds.
I just would love to see some competitive guild content, take a look at games like Lineage2 or Tera u have clan wars there for example, they are the most fun thing of those games u can just kill any enemy guild member on sight in order to win points. I am not saying GW2 should emulate those games, just adding some competitive guild content would be nice and fun, and ofc would make justice to game’s name.

I would like to see what GW2 comunity thinks about this kind of stuff.

As many seem to misinterpret, Guild Wars is a reference to lore not a game mechanic. But GvG would be nice, although it’s weird to balance depending on how big your guild is.

let me just put this here: http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/The_Guild_Wars

This.

I’m getting really sick of this same stupid argument. The game name is a lore-based thing. It has nothing to do with GvG.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone complaining about the lack of actual Warcraft in WoW. Warcraft is the art, science, or craft of war. It’s not just some franchise by Blizzard.

I’ve also never heard anyone complain about the lack of dragons in Dragon Age Origins (I know there’s a couple). Instead everyone is just okay with fighting a blight all game.

This is quite literally the only game I’ve ever played where people kitten and moan about the title of the game because they actually took it literally.

(Age of Wonders also never made me wonder… What’s with that?)

Well that is the thing u should be able to engage in a guild war against a guild u know u have a chance to beat, mutual agreement wars/battles, GvG instanced events stuff like that size shouldn’t matter. Instanced events where 5 menbers from a guild fight 5 members of another one, it dosnt really have to be PVP, it can be PVE, for example the last standing gruop while fighting a horde or a nasty boss.

There are no scrolls in Elder Scrolls! Where mah scrolls at?

Regardless of where the name Guild wars come from i am just saying, some kind of guild vs guild mechanics would be nice to see on this game. Giving ppl a real reason to belong to a guild, guild pride and that kind of stuff making ppl proud of belong to this guild or some other u know. Guild rankings, stuff like that, again it dosn’t really have to be PVP focused since mostly carebears play this game, it can be PVE.
