Guild Wars 2

Hello everyone I have a suggestion for growing the cooperation and organization of guilds in GW2. Creation of a alliance tab or tab within the guild tab to form and show alliances. Honestly I am surprised that a system for forming alliances has not been implemented yet. GW2 is a game based on cooperation in WvW/PvP/PvE, the server vs server functions are amazing and good for establishing a sense of home. WvW having such a big emphasis on team cooperation wouldn’t it be better if there was a more direct way of organizing guilds to work together in game?

My experiences with guild forming alliances is always through forums which is not bad but makes me feel a bit “away” from the actual game and also inviting the guild leaders from the alliance and giving them a specific alliance rank in the guild. Having guild chat is great in my guild it is constantly active! I can imagine an alliance channel would keep chat boxes constantly active! If guilds go to bed and chat dies down the alliance chat will always be active for those night owls and players in different time zones. Not only that but WvW organization and server organization would be much improved! Sometimes its not that a server is bad or low people sometimes its that some servers organize better then others.

Please feel free to give your 2cents but lets be respectful to each other just because we don’t have the same point of view doesn’t mean we can’t respect each other!

Guild Wars 1 had an alliance system set up for their guilds. Was pretty awesome and there was always chatting going on constantly because of it. I’d get my guild to join an alliance if it were possible.

Yeah I remember the golden days! Alliance chat ALWAYS active would love to see that again here.

If anyone has any good alliance stories please feel free to post also!

I remember my guild being in an alliance. And it was a guild of 1. It had started life as a guild of around 10, 9 of which where real life friends. They stopped playing, then I fell in with another guild while I was doing FoW. They asked if I wanted to join there guild. I explained politely that I was the head of an inactive guild, but I have a full guild hall and didn’t want to abandon my “baby” so I was invited to join there alliance. I remember one Luxson bonus week end I has more faction than there whole guild lol.

I just feel that with alliances each server as a whole can better coordinate and will make WvW so much more exciting and cooperative. Having a largely populated server or a server of good players alone doesn’t win battles. The key to winning GRAND battles is coordination between the players involved. I can’t tell you how many time i’ve been playing EotM outnumbered and my group were able to win keeps over just because we organized and coordinated our attacks better. Having an in game way to organize guilds to run WvW would make for much more epic battles. We are playing GUILD WARS after all!

YES PLEASE!!!

Can we also add in Enemy Alliances too… My guild has one we are not fond of!
– Allow us to attack them in open world! (If they add us as enemy too.)

But I must say I have been seeing a lot of people attacking ANET but I think that they are truly trying to enhance our experience and I really appreciate the effort!

Also I would like to see a better reward system for defending Keeps/Towers/Towns I think having a more defensive mindset would better enhance the experience in WvW. (Currently attack minded) If you make it a defensive minded experience people will attack regardless for the OPPORTUNITY to be able to defend and hold longer.

I dont understand why people don’t comment on wether alliance is a good or bad idea :/ nobody has an opinion on the subject of alliances?
