this is going to be a idea that may be far out there.

But GW1 is dead. I would like for some kind of Merger, we could have GW1 PvP modes and combat recreated in GW2 engine with updated models, and allowing players in GW2 to queue into the New GW1 revamped mode at will.

This way we get GW1 gameplay but with GW2 population. Players could freely go back and forth between both games without having to close out one game or the other. They both will be in the same game.

This would be costly, but I would be sure crowdfunding could be used to fund such a project.

I like certain elements from GW1 gameplay which will never work in GW2. So I support keeping both game separate but would like better access to both, and more population in both.

Alliance Battles with GW2 models/Art Style and engine/ networking code would be pretty awesome.

would only be on board with this if this ‘merge’ scrapped the gw2 engine completely and converted all of the gw2 adventuring in gw1’s style

i play both games and gw1’s gameplay is a lot more appealing and engaging for me personally, plus having all the zones/dungeons instanced for me and my geared up heroes would be nice.

I’m afraid OP has little idea how games are built and work… There’s literally no way they could merge the two together. This isn’t DBZ, they can’t fuze together and go super saiyan, sorry…

The best you can hope for is to have the GW1 game modes rebuilt from scratch inside GW2. It’s totally possible for them to recreate alliance battles, gvg, etc in GW2. Just be careful with your expectations. Even if they brought those into GW2, they would still feel fundamentally different because GW2 combat and reward structures are completely different.

If you are hoping for them to bring back the secondary profession system and the fully customizable skill bars with access to hundreds of skills with hero/henchmen… don’t get your hopes up. It will never happen. That would mean a fundamental reconstruction of the entire combat system of the game. You probably think it would be like switching out the wheels on a car. It would be more like changing a car into a space station. Sure if you throw 10 years and millions of dollars at it, you might make it happen. But GW2 doesn’t need such a radical make-over.

Edit: Lol the “ball” and “z” in Dragon Ball… Z was censured.

We should also go back to only allowing human PCs. There are too many character races in GW2.
