Izanagi.7831 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 With the way they are thinking about restructuring WvW, wouldn't make more since to call it Alliance Wars? Or Guild Wars? Or Alliance Battles. Kinda like we had in GW1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justine.6351 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Setting up alliances and doing some restructuring of wvw at same time could be renamed to alliance something. But the real risk is too many changes all at once killing the mode completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Haired Savage.5430 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I'm guessing it'll be similar to the SPvP team names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illconceived Was Na.9781 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I think it makes a lot of sense to change the name of the game mode as part of restructuring. My favorites from the list above (so far) are: * Alliance Wars (from @"Izanagi.7831") * The Mist War (from @"Chaba.5410") And brainstorming a few more: * Unstructured Players vs Players (uPvP, or uP for short) * Realm vs Realm * War of the Roses (because it's a fun, evocative name) * Red versus Green versus Blue (RGB) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XenesisII.1540 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 It's still going to be world vs world... Alliances will be a small part of the population... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infrequentia.3465 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 it wasn't called SvS ( server vs Server vs Server) before the restructure why would it change now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreedOfGod.9764 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 just Guild Wars fits imo, or like Alliance At War Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There aren't going to be any "worlds" after the restructuring. It makes sense for the name to change to fit the circumstances. (I'm okay if they don't change the name, too.) > Alliances will be a small part of the population... I think it's more likely that alliances will be at least a plurality: * Individualists, without a WvW-related guild * Unallied non-WvW Guilds * Unallied WvW Guilds * Allied Guilds I think the first two groups will be the "small part" of the population. There will certainly be lots and lots of WvW Guilds that aren't part of alliances, but I think there will be far more people in the WvW guilds that are part of an alliance.

XenesisII.1540 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 There are going to be worlds, not servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korgov.7645 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Since the worlds won't be permanent let's call it Temporary World vs Temporary World vs Temporary World. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People move all the time, it doesnt make servers temporary does it? Even a 0 population world is still a world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumba.3174 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 well in gw1 you had something called **Alliance Battle** (AB), WvW prob has it's roots from there, so think that name would fit WvW. https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Alliance_Battles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XenesisII.1540 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 It got it's roots from dark age of camelot realm vs realm system, which had 3 separate sides/realms in battle that took place on the same server/shard/world. The alliance battle of gw1 had 3 parties of 4 players together in a battle of 2 sides, amounts to like squad vs squad battle. Gw2 has entire server/world vs server/worlds vs server/world, the alliance system will still have entire world vs world vs world. The alliance system is just going to form parties of guilds(instead of looking at it as players) to be placed together on world creation, somehow people think this is all wvw is going to be about.

Albeit it has become a guest world with no identity left and nothing to gain nor lose in WvW. Come the alliance system all worlds become guest worlds with no identity and nothing to fight for.
