Thanks for giving the GW2 GvG community a place to play, ANet!

In time I hope you allow all servers to access this map so we can more easily hold tournaments.

The Shortest Road to GvG

The GW2 GvG community doesn’t need a lot of support to thrive. We can provide ANet the opportunity to expand their player base with our unique game type and video content. All we need is the space to organize our fights.

Why ANet should support the GW2 GvG community:

  • Unique game type – There is currently no other MMO that offers large scale fights on even terms like GW2 did. The GW2 GvG community can offer these players a place to go, both within and out of the game.
  • Video content – Almost every GvG is recorded. Stream numbers were nearing sPvP tournament streams before the orb buff came about. Higher video and stream numbers bring more attention to GW2 itself, bringing more players to the game as a result.

What we need:

  • Space – An instance where one team of up to 30 can fight against another of the same size. Flat land with generic ground textures, nothing fancy. Around 10,000 range in length and 3,000 in width (roughly larger than the area behind south supply in the WvW Borderland maps). Allow any guild or group from one server to challenge one from any other server.
  • WvW gear options and balance – Most of the GW2 GvG community finds the sPvP gear options too restrictive. Use WvW balance and gear instead of sPvP’s.

That’s all we need. It’s a small risk to take. We can organize our own fights. We built our own ladder. Give us the soil and we’ll grow.
