Guild Wars 2

the guild system in spvp is nice but I want 20v20 or at least 15v15 gvgs. 5v5 “GvG” isn’t really a gvg. Is there any news on the bigger fights?

Based on what was told today we don’t have much information ,but over the next few weeks we will get more detailed information on the features that was announced today so we will have to wait.

GW1 gvg was 8v8. I wouldn’t expect much larger groups.

Did they even say how big the groups will be ? i would guess something around 10v10 but that’s just my guess

I completely agree. I don’t think ANet understands how we play gvg in GW2

Thats not the ‘real’ gvg. Google gw1 GvG for the ‘real’ GvG.
This will be a Moba meets gw1 GvG gametype.

This.

GW2 GvG as you know it is nowhere near as fun as smaller group GvG. Trust me. You can continue to do your 20v20 in WvW, but its time for the true GvG game mode from GW1 to be revamped into what they announced.

GW1 GvG was the pinnacle of MMO PvP. Hopefully Stronghold can do it once more.

It’s GvG from GW1. I’m surprised they called them strongholds instead of GvG which is basically what it is. I guess they did that not to alienate the GW2 players who have claimed GvG for something else.

As far was 20vs20 goes, how would you make content for that that is any different from existing content? Just like how Courtyard isn’t a popular map, I don’t think an vanilla 20v20 arena would be very popular. I think the best solution is to make OS an overflow and embrace whatever Strongholds turns out to be.

To be fair the new mode seems much closer to the “real” GvG than what you are talking about.
The “real” GvG from GW1 only had 8 people per team after all.
