This system drastically puts the balance of power on the big, established guilds side. With the grandfathering of guild vaults, that’s that much less cost to pay for a guild hall. How can a new guild, just starting up, compete against this?

Let’s say you have Joe Random, who has dreams of starting his own guild. Not only does he have no guild vault to put stuff in but no cool guild hall for all the guildies to hang out. Because of the cost, he is not going to get these things in any realistic amount of time unless he has deep pockets or he taxes his guildies to help pay. Will his guildies, who are members of up to 4 other guilds which may also be taxing them for their guild hall, be willing to pay his guild tax when they they are being taxed by other guilds or if they can join an established guild and get it for free or cheaper?

I’m not dead sure ANet considered human nature and the way the guilds are set up when they thought up these costs.

Exactly, I think they just set their sights on forcing players to play together more is what they are trying to solve without fully thinking about all the problems that will be coming in less than 2 weeks.

The point is that the Dev’s can’t expect all their players are willing to conform to all upcoming changes and that people like me are resistant to some of these changes.

That’s true. It just so happens that these specific changes are very reasonable (and even welcome) by many (and probably most) players.

We will find out soon enough and my OP is very reasonable also regardless who may agree or disagree. Anet knows posters on the forums are the vocal minority as most of the players doesn’t even visit the forums/reddit, Facebook etc so most don’t even know about the upcoming changes. Most players just want to play!

Second, you do have a choice, play the game or don’t. There is no option of taking up of arms and marching on anet HQ, no matter how gung-ho you want to appear.

LOL no one is saying anything about storming Anet’s HQ or appearing gung-ho and you are twisting my words. Why did those people come to U.S.A in the first place? because they didn’t want conform to British ways in Britain was my point! Even after they came to U.S.A they still didn’t conform to British rule of thumb they resisted thus the Revolutionary War, Boston Tea party………. We are both right in different points of view

The point is that the Dev’s can’t expect all their players are willing to conform to all upcoming changes and that people like me are resistant to some of these changes.

People on Reddit raged by using their voice about the 2 months time gate to build guild hall pvp arena and in 24hr Anet agreed to change to 2 weeks. Did you tell them they have a choice not to play also or anyone else here on the forums that bring up things that you don’t agree with?

Yeah its my choice to play game or not, because I play the game its doesn’t mean I have to like all the changes or that I give up my consumer rights to speak up offering my feed back to the Dev’s regardless who may or may not like my feed back. Anet depends on our feed back!!

This way or the high way attitude is just plain wrong by anyone while I’m not a yes person or a mindless sheep that just accepts everything as some people on the forums expects everyone to be.

It silly for anyone or the Dev’s to expect all the players to conform in a way/ways they may not want too with the upcoming changes and not expect players to show resistance. United Sates of America was NOT founded by yes people as they refused to conform to the British rule of thumb. Once the expansion hits there will be more people like me speaking up soon after wards.

Is there even a purpose for building up your 1 man guild?

If you want personal guild bank, you can just queue up now. Other than that, all you can get is a really really tiny guild buff.

I’m okay with having access to some of things I do now while some stuff I do not.
Some players like to contribute with the buffs/bonus they have access to for everyone to use not just rely on other guilds to but banners down etc. Many times in WvW I’ve help out a lot with the +5 supply camp buff which came in handy more times than not.

Someone answer this “Why is this suddenly so bad when it hasn’t been a problem for 3 years?”

Because there’s new stuff coming, it’s not the same old stuff as before. You shouldn’t be able to buy everything in a guild hall on day 1 with gold, just as you shouldn’t be able to buy one of the new legendaries from the TP.

Nope not an valid answer! The new system cannot be gamed no matter how much gold one person or 500+ guild has as I sad in my OP.

Under the current system the same thing you can not game it as it has time gated limit to build x things.

This has nothing to do with buying new legendries’ from the TP.

Please keep salty attacks & comments out of this thread please and thank you!

Ability to buy Favor with Gold please Anet.

Would like to open this thread with this

Why not have the ability to buy favor with gold, just like influence can be bought with gold. Big guilds don’t need to buy, they’ll have enough favor from missions. Small guilds, personal bank guilds, can buy and slowly progress their guild. Why is this suddenly so bad when it hasn’t been a problem for 3 years?

From my thread here https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/hot/Guild-Mission-Favor-problem-for-1-2-p-guilds/first

Ability to buy favor with gold, just like influence would fix the following

issues/arguments:

  • Help me I help you log off scam
  • LFG Tool and Map Chat Spam
  • Semantics argument what makes a Guild
  • Balancing content argument/problem for micro/tiny/small guilds
  • Guild Credit taking turns creating 2x or more work for players so everyone gets credit.
  • Temp invite players and kick each week for Guild Missions.
  • Some players may feel forced to do content they may not want to do earn Favor.
  • Added stress to players by toxic players with forced increased interaction that will be required, while some players would like to relax while having little interaction with others as possible.
  • Others issues not listed:

For the past 3 years none of this has been any issues at all in anyway until upcoming expansion.

Compromise/solution

  • Keep the weekly Favor cap in place with the ability to buy favor with gold and it would be a gold sink I feel it would be a fair compromise to above issue that everyone can live with. Since buying influence under the current system has never been an issue at all with anyone for the past 3 years, Guilds from 1-500+ plus have been happy no issues while everyone has been able to progress their guild at their own pace slow or fast.

It would a be a win, win solution for ever player regardless how they want to play the game or how social players are or not. No one can game the system with Favor caps and time gates in place.

Guild Mission/Favor problem for 1-2 p guilds

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: JediYoda.1275

JediYoda.1275

You are wrong, at any time in the evening, just look for people in the group finder, or ask in LA. Say:" Small guild could use some help with mission, would appreciate some help. Can guestinvite if you need commendations."
Make a “Guest” role in your guild with no permissions, so these people do get some rewards for their effort if they want to, you can remove them after the mission.
You will have a group of people to do your missions in the same time as it takes to form your party for dungeons.

Perhaps my point wasn’t clear enough so lets agree to disagree.

Do you really want to see all the spam in LFG tool and in map chat from all micro/tiny guilds? I know I sure don’t. Yes I’m aware I can do temp invites to other players to help with said mission but I have to do this each week over & over in order to earn favor and this isn’t what I feel myself and others should have to do.

Why not have the ability to buy favor with gold, just like influence can be bought with gold. Big guilds don’t need to buy, they’ll have enough favor from missions. Small guilds, personal bank guilds, can buy and slowly progress their guild. Why is this suddenly so bad when it hasn’t been a problem for 3 years?

This right here 100% and especially with favor cap each week! and plus it would be a gold sink and what MMO don’t like gold sinks! It would solve all the arguments on both side as it would be the perfect and only real compromise here.

I think hell just froze over for once we agree on something

Like -Just a flesh wound- asked Why is this suddenly so bad when it hasn’t been a problem for 3 years? Please someone give a convincing argument against this in a well thought out post. Anything less won’t qualify!

No.

Do not expect your definition of fun to match that of everyone else. I do not complete maps to complete maps. It is exactly the same as someone saying EVERYONE use the same game mode as they do.

This is why people want to be able to reset hero points. They are not interested in doing challenges solely to satisfy some arbitrary design decision.

Either the game isn’t for you or suck it up and do some of HP’s Anet isn’t going to add the ability to retrait as you whish since it not needed. It’s not like getting to or doing many of HP’s is hard. Just to low level zones to get the amount you need and be done with it.

I am grinding the open world. If they wanted us to have plenty of HPs they would not have given us EXACTLY the number needed for all existing skills and traits. That we got just as much as we needed, no more and no less, (assuming no hero challenges) is a pretty big hint. The suggestion that we get 100% world completion on all our characters now is pretty silly.

I agree with the OP, I wish we could trade some of our skills and traits back for the HPs. We can never have every skill/trait active (and with elites even less) anyway. What would really help is if we knew exactly how many HPs we will need. If I knew I was going to need, oh, 200 HP for a full unlock I would not sweat it because there is no possible way I will have that in the near future on all my characters.

No one is suggestion (Anet or players) that you need 100% world completion, what we are saying that you just need to do the hero points. So you will have enough hero points for all the elite spec and traits when h.o.t is released. lvl 80 gives you all the points you need for the core game skills and traits right now.

Running to HP’s isn’t all that hard use the maps on wiki to help plan your routes and wp’s plus so you know where each one is.

It does present a problem with elite specializations. Before we were given exactly enough points to unlock everything, fine. Now they presumably want more for the elite specs?

Translation: grinding HP. I wish we could unlearn some stuff we do not need.

Go out and get the Hero points in the open world, its why they gave us the new system before expac release so you will have enough hero points when expac comes.

It’s not like I’m against this after all 1-2p guilds, but no matter how you reword it, they are just people that want to monopolize all the benefits of a guild for themselves. As the guy above already said you can party to do missions and you said before you’re fine with gaining benefits slower.

You missing key parts of the issue/s here, and it has nothing to do with players wanting monopolize all the benefits of a guild for themselves at least for me.

I’m all for 5 man guilds being able to do everything 500 man guilds can, below that however, i don’t agree. .

Right now under the current systems some guilds can’t even do some/all of the guild missions due to 15 players need to cross the finish line in some things as one example. Its never been a problem from that I know off since plenty of ways to earn influence.

With the new system the only way to earn Favor is by doing guild missions thus a problem for me and others like me. Also with the new system there is weekly Favor cap and time gated limits of few things we know of so far.

Only asking to make it more welcoming to all with out some of the hassle that the new system will bring. Favor cap and time gated limits in place so I don’t see really what the big deal is as for letting everyone to able to earn favor in some way like the current system. Myself and others are okay with taking us longer to get things compared to other guild of various different sizes.

Anet said in guild chat last week the content already scales, guild hall capture mission starts to scale at 5 players, under might be doable with good players. Guild missions will scale in difficulty and in rewards based on former. So its already in place.!

You can make a party for dungeons so you can make a party for guild missions and capturing your hall. This games community is very friendly and willing to help.
In fact you can add me if you need help capturing the hall on eu (that goes for any guild needing this in HoT), but group content should not scale down to 1 person.

True and the only difference is that when you wan to do a dungeon you can pretty much always find other players that want to do the same content as you at that time without much effort needed. When it comes to other things that may not always be the case and brings more problems than solves. I’m on NA and thank for your offer to help though.

Then you ask to be helped first then you dont log off and help them in return thats how trust is built and you got your buddies. And to route out the bad eggs block and ignore or start a homepage were trusted guilds are marked and bad eggs are marked nothing against that.

Edit I would be willing to do it for one of my bank guilds for example and im a 1 person guild but also on a bigger social guild ( unsure if we can earn favor for more then 1 guild at the time the same week tho)

And still back to square one the root of the problem with the new system making things more inconvenient then it solves where under the current system it isn’t the case.

We do know exactly how that works because they explained it in the guild week streams.

You can taxi anyone you want in to the instanced missions. The non-instanced ones work like they currently do. If your guild has a bounty and another guild has the same bounty, you will both get credit if you are both there at the event killing it.

They just cover some of the basics as they never go into full detail how stuff fully works as they want players to discover for themselves.

Well since you have to be 3 people to earn favor and there are so many guilds out there of 1-2 people find another rep each others guild and earn that favor for each guild.
I just solved your problem

Scenario: You help another small guild do their mission etc and they promise help you with yours. When its time for them to help you they log off or just refuse to help you. So NO you didn’t solve anything but create another problem!

So join a casual guild with no requirements, and profit? You seem to think that joining a guild means having to do something. That’s not always the case.

Casual guilds are social organizations. There are even guilds made of people who solo. I don’t know what guilds you’ve been in, but you’re probably picked the wrong ones.

How does joining a casual guild solve one issue that I have is to earn Favor for my guild so I can to contribute on my own with +5 banners, buffs and other bonuses I have access to? If I join a said guild as to your suggestion I would just get player rewards and the favor goes to said guild thus my problem.

We really don’t know how the credit systems will work yet if two or more guilds can team up and do a missions together, without members need to rep a guild other than their main one. If it is then no issue here! If its not just wait till the 23rd and after there will be more threads and post on this issue!

My hope is that two or more guilds can team up and do a missions together, without members need to rep a guild other than their main one. I believe this will be true based on the following quotes from https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/guild-mission-changes-and-improvements/.

-snip-

I hope its this way too as it would solve several potential and obvious problems,
but given how all the info is so vague always leaving more questions than answers. (We have to find out ourselves)

This is the same categori as people asking to be able to do guild missions with 1 or 2 players the content aint made for it.

Not all guilds missions just easy tier so please get your facts straight! As paying customer its reasonable request.

The guild mission content scales you know that right? so its already made for various size of players!

You wont be getting a guild hall in the first couple of days unless of course Anet changes the amount of favor needed at launch. Colin said its feasible in the first week if guilds can collect enough favor that the 2nd week is more doable.

If the “GW2 community is the friendliest community out there” as Anet touts then most likely OP, myself and others wouldn’t have an certain issue/s. Since its clearly isn’t the friendliest community out there hence we have some issue/s.

There are other ways to kitten the situation; you’re being in some way awkward, friendliest doesn’t mean “shares all JediYoda’s values,” friendliest just means most friendly (doesn’t mean will be everyone’s friend).

You could maybe try to make your own guild which you can build with likeminded people if you’re having trouble finding those preconstructed out there.

I am aware of that and that’s not what I’m saying you taking it out of context just little bit too far. Less toxicity in the community would go a long way is what I’m saying!

“outliers, and social misfits” is a bit harsh here in context of OP post as the Op clearly laid out his issues.

Like the OP says and I agree with “is it so wrong to want to play the game content silently and in my own way that I enjoy?”

It’s not hurting anyone

You are hurting people if you’re a small group that feels that way and you’re asking for changes to be made that will affect the much larger group of people.

HoT is soloable, but not every event is. However, the OP doesn’t have the full experience, because he’s had neither adventures which are solo or the stories, which are very very likely to be solo.

He ran a beta that tested the event chains in a zone and from that he drew erroneous conclusions. Which is fair since that’s all he’s seen.

But saying the game needs to change for someone like you, when even more people are saying the open world is too easy does affect other people.

People are like us are the only getting hurt because the Dev’s are no longer being accommodating with H.O.T along with certain changes to core game since they are heavily focusing on guilds based on 10 or players. Since that’s what the Guild Hall is balanced around to max them out in 6 to 9 months.

Open world content isn’t the issue here as everyone just pretty much goes from event to event and so on their own without having to form a group to do said events. The issue comes when being forced to go big guild or go home is what putting players like us off for various reasons as the OP posted above.

If the “GW2 community is the friendliest community out there” as Anet touts then most likely OP, myself and others wouldn’t have an certain issue/s. Since its clearly isn’t the friendliest community out there hence we have some issue/s.

2) Only thing that requires a group is raids The open world is easy enough to solo or duo (especially since they nerfed the content in BWE3). The entire game does NOT have to be soloable. There needs to be stuff for guilds to do, which thankfully HoT is adding.
.

Guild Missions you need players 3 or more players, Claiming Guild hall you need 5 or more players, Raids of course several players.

BW3 difficulty was bugged according to Anet or just a PR spin no one will really know outside of their studio.

Duh. Keyword is Guild. Of course Guild oriented content needs more than 1 player. Not seeing the problem.

Congrats on missing my point, I was correcting the poster, please see the bolded part thus the reason for my post. Only thing that requires a group is raids.

One could argue that it already goes on now so guilds can fly their guild banner.

As for the credit issue who knows and looks like we have to find for ourselves when h.o.t goes live. (Too much vague info on important details)

I don’t know the answer you are looking, with the 10,000 influence to 1 Favor exchange rate, probably would be best to use as much of it now while you still can to get all research levels done now.

GW2 HoT exp- will be cheaper at it's release?

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: JediYoda.1275

JediYoda.1275

My bad, I didn’t mean at the FIRST day of it’s release.
I was meaning, let’s say 3-6 months after the release, it would not be the same price, am I right?

Yes it possible while it all depends on Anet’s pricing strategy and competition of other games. IMHO I don’t see it much different from video card or console price wars.

Wow, .__.
Excuse me for asking, but I was just wondering, since normally pre-purchasing are having higher price than it’s official release.

So you’re saying that GW2 pre-purchase should be still the same price as today’s price?
No? I thought so.
See, that’s my point!!!

Has anything you’ve bought in real life was cheaper on the very first day of release then it was pre sale if any?

All of point 2 and 2nd paragraph of point 3 I’m 100% in agreement with, OP you’re not alone in feeling this way and sure do hope the Dev’s will be willing to make a compromise sooner than rather later.

Well I’m done talking about semantics on what determines a guild or not same for bank guild/s since we all have different opinion’s on the subject while no one is going to convince the other side any different. So lets all to agree to disagree on those 2 points and leave it that.

As the rest of your post is all moot point since you don’t know anything about my guild or its history so nothing else for me to comment on.


In general speaking not directed to anyone one person here on the forums

It would nice if people would stop and think for few moments and realize that players are all different and coming from all kinds of different back grounds. That we all have different interest in things we want to do in game and how we want go about doing those things. Also with what we are or not willing to put up with since some things are not for everyone as some people just want to relax after a long day work/school and not wanting to deal with more crap in game or be one someone’s else time table serving them etc.
