Guild Wars 2

Everyone has his own rating, however the best tournament players actually play together in guilds. Even in the top 1,000 few play without a random team and play even less (if they do at all) in soloque.

Usually to play GvG, you need to be in that guild, leaving your previous one, this can be the reason that this mode is really resctrincted an was avoided here, since you have to decide between friends or PvP.
But dear Arenanet, your system supports the opportunity of GvG the most in the entire market!

Since you can have 5 guilds, GW2 has a system that really supports GvG. You can have a main guild, use another for core team with friends, one for practice, and one for the PvP core of your main guild (just examples).

To avoid best players abuse the founding of new guilds just to farm newbies, make the exact same thing as in GW1, award rank points for wins only above a given rating (some new titles are needed for that).

If PvE guys have 4-5 types of guild missions, we can have 1 for PvP I guess.

Do you just never read the PvP forums? People have been asking for GvG since release. With Arenas one day we may see a map that is based on an 8v8 game (assuming GvG from GW1).

I do, that’s why i was cautious with the thread title. 99% of GvG topics are just pure QQ, at least I brought some reasons to try to convince them.

it’s important to mention it further and further, so arenanet sees what the community wants most^^

I honestly think that arenas are a precursor to the first iteration of GvG. It would be so very easy to add a map that is based on a larger number of players (8v8) that would not be added to the tPvP map rotation. With passwords, team locking, spectators it would be very easy to set up a match vs another guild in the exact same manner as player run leagues and tournaments will be ran.

I think that too. But I’d still like a guild ladder and a real gvg system so that the players don’t have to fake something which isn’t there^^

So a guild ranked 6785 would easily meet the top 3rd guild this way, because they were the ones to join your room. Not working idea.

And 8v8 would be just mindless aoe, 5v5 or 6v6 is the max that could wor i think. Maybe with different objectives that splits your team to smaller groups in the map would work with 8v8.

Did you miss the part where I stated that a new map would need to be created to facilitate 8v8 play? Also, assuming you own the arena you get to allow who joins and who doesnt… people wouldnt just ‘happen to be the ones to join’.

So you could face your friends all the time. And from where would you know the random enemy’s rating? Genious.

You are the arena owner, if ‘friends’ are joining trying to ruin games you can remove them from the arena. You act like getting 2 teams together is a problem… have you watched ANY GW2 arena streams where they very easily get 2 teams in an arena on the correct side and then play?

Where would the enemy rating come from… seeing as in post #1 one of my first sentences says THIS IS A PRECURSOR TO GVG there would be no rating. In this case teams would most likely be facing opponents in the same way that leagues will work now – you set up a website, play games, those games are recorded and your team gets a record. With that record you can judge the level of that team if you so wish to challenge them. That will suffice until an actual guild rating system can be implemented.

So, “genious” (you spelled that wrong by the way, usually insults should be spelled correctly – genius), I kindly ask that you actually read the thing you are responding to.

Just implement a map that let max 50vs50 and there you go, custom arenas will do the rest.
