Guild Wars 2

When will Guild Wars 2 feature Guild Wars with Guild VS Guild combat? Not WvW, but Capture the Flag single guild duels akin GW1?

When will Guild Leaders be able to send out a mass in-game mail to all guild members?
Also adding in a feature to the current in-game mail system that shows and tells us that we have new incoming mail but cannot be received “as our mail is at 10/10” ?

There’s still time, with the money funding resources manpower and talent Anet has in the office, no reason why priority immediate last minute changes can’t be rescheduled into the SCRUM board. All just a matter of “do we want to do it?” “yes|no”

Well, the next CDI starting up soon was announced to be about Guilds – and it specifically mentioned Guild vs Guild.

Here is the quote:

“Hi All,

We will starting a CDI soon on…….Guilds.

It will be broken down into time boxed discussion sections such as Guild vs. Guild, Guild Activities, Managing Guilds, Guild Content etc.

I will update when I have more details on when we start. I am very much looking forward to it.

Sept. 9 is about a week and a half away, every feature that’s going to make it is probably either having the finished touches right now or already finished and being tested (insert random “do you mean they test it???” joke here). Except for minor changes (like making commander tags 300g for all colors instead of for each color), anything not announced yet, and not being announced next week, chances are won’t be on the patch, as it’s much more likely that things get cut out of it if they’re not ready in time, or if testing finds out glaring bugs that can’t be fixed on time, than things added at last minute.

On the GvG thing, considering that they specifically said that an upcoming CDI will discuss it, I doubt they have anything on it ready enough to be in this patch, assuming they were already working on it.

All that is left for this feature pack is “Collecting and Trading”.

I don’t think there is a chance that it contains the long awaited GvG game mode

If they’re doing a CDI on GvG, don’t expect it for at least a year.

Honestly, everything was done a month or more ago, with the exception of the Commander Tag “fix”. It’s put to bed and is just waiting for the roll out.

I am still waiting for the ‘big thing’ with this patch. The last one had megaserver, the wardrobe, and the PvP changes. So far this patch hasn’t even had 1 thing on par with these.
