New Guild Wars - A Sneak Peek

I am not looking forward to the achievements they are going to add to this game mode when this update launches. Based on the previous updates, I doubt this will be an improvement and will instead be a grindy mess like PvP is now.

This looks far too complicated. The current game format takes hours a day in game play to keep up with everything already. Unless the new GWs will replace a weekly Guild event in the rotation, and not be in addition to, say the weekly Doom, Raid Boss, etc. event, My guild will not be expected to spend the extra time needed to play an additional 9 plus, likely to remain futile, battles a day .

I don’t think many people played the old GW for it’s rewards and if the rewards stay as poor as they were it will be easy for guilds to ignore it if there’s no love for the wars. There will be guilds who demand playing all battles and those who won’t. So it was never a problem to ignore GW before for most, but if they throw some interesting rewarding system with good rewards, then it might get a bit complicated for those who don’t have the time. (I’ve always been into GW, so I’ll take the time from other game modes)

If you don’t like it don’t play it…simple as that. :wink::beers:

I hope they don’t add good rewards. Some rewards sure but guilds shouldn’t have to choose between weekly event and GW. It should be weekly event and then GW if you want to.

What I do hope they add is a leaderboard (for guilds). Let the guilds who like the game mode fight for bragging rights on a proper leaderboard. While the rest can safely ignore it if they don’t like it or don’t have time for it.

Well said! Although I wouldn’t mind a little improvement to the rewards. The most important thing for me is that little healthy competition inside the guild for paragons title, hopefully that is in the polished version of GW too.

One of the biggest issue in PvP is still going to be used with this, the Elementalist class. Restrictions don’t mean anything if people that lack skills or are outright lazy just slap that class on every team they have. Together with Wand of Stars that at least hopefully wil get changed into the Prismatic Orb like in PvP as well then.

Restrictions on troops don’t mean anything if those restrictions have barely any impact on the Hero.
So can only see this work if for some reason classes are also affected by the restrictions or just like Arena that you cannot use your Hero.

Id love to be able to ignore it. Easier said than done if my guild requires it. The old guild wars tore guilds apart.

yeah some great points here especially the 20 vs 30 we have 30 members but we have a very chilled approach to Gems now and some weeks 10 players could be having RL issues so dont play explained in a short message and excepted by others but NOW if all players or at least the new old rules of 26 highest scores contrabuting i can once again see migration of players back to old or top guilds and that demand where you MUST PLAY every day or be kicked MUST USE that troop to win have other players looking at your game play with shared play i like you cant see how its going to work for those guilds with low members

Also i dont mean to crap on your strawberries but there is only one sun, maybe if you have said the "“fire"of a thousand stars” and even then theres no real “fire” because theres no oxygen in our sun. So really you should have said the energy of a thousand stars. So i cant really qualify your statement. :wink:

Fine. With the hydrogen and helium of a thousand stars. Better?

Awesome :smile::smile::smile::smile:

Not necessarily. While we typically call our star “The Sun” (capital S), it’s normal to refer to other stars as suns (small s) sometimes, especially if they’re the center of their own solar system wherein they would be the sun for that system. Our sun is actually called Sol, often, as a name (from the Latin for sun), to distinguish it from other suns, but The Sun works too.
I agree that there’s no actual fire though, it’s more a miasma of incandescent plasma, apparently. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLkGSV9WDMA)

There are so many bugs occurring with heroic gems, terror, curse, barrier gems and lycanthropy that they MUST not land for guild wars. I’ve had 3 different cliffy errors and 3 different versions of complete locks now. Latest today with barrier gems and curse.

Please fix all the gem type and effects from gem types bugs (video evidence already supplied) before GW is released.

Thanks

Or just exclude heroic gem drops in GW. If they wait to fix everything b4 GW releases, we won’t see it in our lifetime :wink:
