I really like the idea Rye, i always loved GvG, but hated the backlash you get from it.
There are some people in this game who hate(d) me for, to put it in their words, "turning the guild into a gvg guild".
I haven't read all the replies, there are 10 pages of them
So things i say might have alraedy been suggested by others, and if so, i'm sorry for double posting.
My additions to this would be:
Have an option for people in guilds to 'opt out' of gvg.
I know of a lot of people that hate being hit in gvg (or in general), and repairing their gear over and over.
For you and me, this is no problem, we enjoy gvg in general, and see the benifit of it being relevant options for fsp making/upgrading guilds.
So just have an option for people to not be hit at all, at the same time this opens up gvg for bigger guilds, because we both know gvging as it is right now, for big guilds, is almost out of the question.. the initiation of it atleast.
Maybe widen the ranges of target levels, and make sure that every guild that is playing the tourney has enough valid targets to be hit.
For smaller guilds this might become a problem, and they might need to recruit a few extra people or something in this order..
Also, probably suggested already...
Revamp the buff packs, and add new ones.
This is way overdue in my opinion.. and one of the reasons gvg isn't so lively anymore.
With composing and introduction of a lot of new invented potions over the years, they are outdated.
Make better leveling packs, or more options for them atleast.
Add some titan hunting packs and stuff like this.
About the part where top25 guilds would earn more RP battling each other and such, and giving out rewards to top25 or top3 guilds.. im not so keen on to be honest.
It is all about prestige you say, so add something to the guild overview to show this prestige (medal or whatever) instead of giving benifits to guilds.
I think this is the wrong way to go when implementing updates.
It is sort of 'pay to win' if you ask me, and this should be avoided at all costs!
There should never be a 'pay to win' option in any aspect of this game, period.
I really love the idea m8, and i hope the cows do something with it, maybe in someway you can work together with devs to implement this, with the community debating any of these changes beforehand, and tweaking them BEFORE making changes.
This would be a great update to the game, and also change the aspect of gvg a lot.
So this requires a lot of feedback from the community before implementing.
Meaning, work out the 'bugs' before having to revamp/change stuff again after 1-2 months of it being introduced.
This sort of stuff will make people fall in love with gvg, or make them leave the game the instant it is introduced, so caution is advised.
edit: i can probably think of a couple more things to comment on, but it's late and my brain isn't working properly anymore at this hour
But i will try and read thru all the comments during the week and give my input.
I really love(d) gvg, and it's time that it gets a boost again.
