----- As a long-time guild leader and fan of the Original Guild Wars, I was very dissappointed in ANET when they announced and released the Megaserver System. First Off, it makes it INSANELY annoying to recruit people because of the world difference and Influence being tied to each world(Good job not patching that with the rest of the system) also, there is no way to CHOOSE which instance of an area you get dumped in, unlike the original Guild Wars and the District System, which worked nicely because of the selection menu. I also take issue with the idea of the Megaserver just plain being a bad decision. If the problem was world population then MERGE THE LOW-POP WORLDS. This Megaserver system breaks so much and its really annoying.
-----Enough about the Megaserver, lets talk about issues with the Guild system currently in place. First Off, (I know its fairly trivial but..) the color selection when creating a guild emblem is WAY too limited and there is NO way to expand it, and even with the colors there are, only half of them look decent on most emblem set ups. Also why dont we have a Guild Hall system yet? It really wouldnt be that hard and if your worried about Lore Incongruencies just use the Fractals of the Mists, say a guild can buy an upgrade under Architechture to stabalize their own private fractal and then you can pay gold(like the original GW) to add NPCs like Guild Bank & Guild Armorers & Repairmen.
-----At this point in development it wouldnt be THAT hard to create a few different maps and scripts to make Guild Halls work, though honestly the coolest thing you could do is a Guild Hall feature like City of Heroes used to have and what Warframe has right now, which is build your own guild hall. Use single parts of hallways, rooms, ect and let the guild design the layout. It would give guilds a Private place to meet for say, officer meetings or even large guild private events(like a party) You could even have rooms for 1v1 duelling and group battles and the guild could use that to test new members if they wanted.
-----These are all really cool features that would have almost no impact on the overall game but have a huge impact on enjoyment for many players. It’s not rocket science, just some game code and doing things you have already done in the first game. These would be an AMAZING way to mark the birthday of GW2. Who else agrees with me?
