What ever happened to guild vs guild? I remember back in the day, guilds could stretch to 50-100k points on the leader boards, but now it's Thursday, about to be Friday and 10 guild haven't even played yet, what's going on.

BTW I remember serian said a while back " why doesn't every gvg guild just merge to do inhouse all the time " I agree, I think something like that should be done.

Keep dreaming, my friend

Guild Merge?? More like Guild Dead.

Those things dont work, there is always a problem in merges, so for GvG you should expect :

a) Jempire stops playing Archeage
b) Darkcub 22
c) Contri does some next level .... and somehow GvG will be played

Otherwise, keep playing yoloQ that is fun.

Cytisum is scared to play vs the all powerful Twenty One cuz Contri knows we'll noose his neck and nonhomobly ride him into oblivion.

Meep.

It's EU (Cytisum) vs US (9+10) most of the times. So it's hard to actually have a proper fight and everyone to consent to it.

That'd probably because cytisum doesn't ever bring in any US players, so they bring in all their Eu players and they are at a disadvantage.

Subs? Those are our actual members. We're not a guild, we're family. And we're always glad to face off in any server, and everyone knows that. Same results.

EoS is about having fun more than winning and the current state of competitive GvG (polaris spam, AT acheron) is not fun. So we have no interest in participating in unrestricted GvG. Most of us are not willing to do whatever it takes to win.

I'd like to play gvg, but if the enemy guild never plays a second time after losing I can't do much

We had fun, we lost one game, 1 player out of 6 didn't press play again. That was it. Don't set up e-peens now.

It might be benevolent, they

It might be benevolent, they have like 75% ( not the actual value ) of the Ld population and do no gvg, when they should be the ones playing the most, that's just what I think, whatever.

back by unpopular demand: me

People always ask me if impervious would be up for a gvg, I always have to tell them that there's usually only 2 or 3 people online at any given time

"We had fun, we lost one game, 1 player out of 6 didn't press play again. That was it. "

Perhaps if a mechanic was introduced to notify guildmates if their GVG team needed a new member after a match......

Perhaps if there was no other guild mates that play LD online...

There should be more of an incentive to play GvG and to commit to having a GvG team. For example an ELO rating system and a monthly tournament? The tournament reward could be like a small CE prize (honestly, 1K CE per player on the #1 team for that tournament would be a nice incentive and not something gamebreaking) or a unique item. Unique items could be like a special costume item (like King Krogmo's Crown) that expires after 30 days for the 6 players on the winning team. There could also be weekly tournaments where you can earn qualification points, which would be required for the monthly tournament. That might help to keep GvG active throughout the month and not just for the monthly tournament. Joining either type of tournament is only possible if at least 4 (or 5) out of 6 players on the team have been in the guild for the past 7 days, doing this will make sure GvG doesnt turn into Subs Vs Subs.

All of this would be automated and would be on Saturdays in the European evening (when most players can be online). If the incentive is worth it for people, they will be online at the specified time.

But this is wishful thinking, as even if the developers implemented anything like this, AT and lag would still be there to ruin the experience.
