Guild Wars 2

For those who don’t know about it, in GW1 there is an awesome pvp modality, Heroes’ Ascent, that consists of a global tournament in which you gain ‘fame points’ with every win.
After some fame points, you gain different ranks of the “Hero” title and (almost) each rank has a special emote (check GW1’s wiki for more informations:http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Hero_ ).

Ok so, during the closed betas and the initial release of GW2, one of the first things I tried was the command /rank and it was an “Unknown command”.
After a recent updates (I think), it is no more an unknown command, but it seems to be not implemented yet (like /rock, /paper, /scissors, /roar, etc…).
I think it would be awesome if they’d add this command/emote again (maybe with a new pvp modality :p ), it would be a further incentive do to sPvP imo.

What do you think about it?

I agree, but this emote should not be based on the current rank system. Because it would suck if RA(hot-join) players could have emoted wolves and tigers. I think they should bring the fame system back to toruneys and increase the team count for tourneys to 16 or 32. (but it wont for paid just now, maybe only free) It is a better way to show your rank, the finishers are not just as good.

I wish Hot-Join, Free and paid tournaments all had different currencies. But this is really pointless with the lack of content for spvp right now.

By the way i think;
What we really need is fast paced 4v4 annihilation mode random arenas and codex. Also the good old Hall of Heroes with the first map particularly having a loading screen, the ghostly saying: “You have moved closer, to the Hall of heroes. This base belongs to your party….” :P

Only then that rank emote would mean something

So you are saying to start from scratch? No thank you! even spvp is not easy to make glory once you advance in ranking

For two months? People will play this game for years, it is still pretty early to implement it.
