Guild Wars 2

Text is bland.

It seems that no matter what you say, you’re mad.

I firmly support the implementation of Alliances, and Alliance chat for a few reasons, touching on some of the above.

When I first joined the game, a lot of guilds popped up trying to cram in tons of members to get them all aboard for the WvW train that was in high gear in the beginning. They made guilds with the same tags, but had to keep members in both, and switch representations to get any knowledge passed back and forth. I can understand that that “works” but a simpler option would’ve been having the large multi-guild guild in an alliance with itself, using alliance chat to send the message faster to all members of the large guild.

Now where the population for joining these extremely heavy numbered guilds has dropped, guilds that want to create alliances that come from different backgrounds, but want to find co-operation together in events to bring the members together and create new experiences, an Alliance option of some sort would help cement these things. Instead of just being “understandings” they’d have a cemented structure in which they could thrive.

Think of this in a sense. Using the above guilds [SDS] of which I am a member, and [Soul]. If guild activity through events is supposed to bolster the Influence earned by the guild, then why not have an allied event, like guild missions, where both guilds take place, but since both are co-operating together, they would gain an increased influence. Something to sweeten the pot for coming together and staying true to an alliance. Not make it manditory thing, but something that would be interesting or cool to see. Things like Alliance banners, would be pretty awesome too.

Hey we could even have an Alliance Hall, or Guild Hall? Something that outside of the events that we get together to be a part of, that we could have something we could pool resources in as a whole to create for the Alliance that is formed.

I would love to see this in the game for the simplest reason of wanting to be part of my guild and the agreement we’ve made with [Soul], but I’d also like to see if more could be done with it to make it something more amazing and impressive than in Guildwars.
