YourOnlyOne.4937 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 Hi Guild Wars 2 team, I would like to suggest to have the guild "joined" limit increased to at least 10. The following are the reasons for this suggestion: Guilds are cross-region, it has turned into a "Community" more than being a traditional gaming "guild". Those of us who are on time zones that happens to be off-peak for our region have an extra challenge of finding people to play with it - we have to rely on PUGs. There are players who already consumed one or two guild slots for exclusive communities -- for example, family only guild; or office guild. It's more of a "community" as mentioned earlier than a guild guild. We want to join other regional/country/timezone related guilds but we no longer have slots. We have to sacrifice other communities and guilds -- practically cutting connection with the existing ones. A limit of 10 "joined" guilds is, I think, more than enough. A limit of 5 worked fine back when guilds were Home-based. But today that it has turned into a "community" instead of a traditional gaming "guild", 10 is a good number to allow players build communities and connect with more players. While we are at it, please also add a feature wherein we can re-arrange our guild memberships. Thank you. P.S. For some players it does not matter; or a limit of 5 is more than enough. That is understandable, and it's good it is more than enough for you. This suggestion is for those who will benefit from it, or have a need for it. 17 7 1 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawdler.8521 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 And when its 10, we will see posts that 10 isnt enough for some people, they want 15. And when its 15, we will see posts that 15 isnt enough for some people, they want 20. Etc and so on. Sometimes you just need to draw a line... and thats 5. We used to have just 1 guild we could talk to. 16 3 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no real reason not to do this. We used to have many things that changed over the years, this one wouldn't have any impact on the game itself, it'd just improve the gameplay experience for some people. 8 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could just as easily say the same if the number was 2 and someone proposed 5. 5 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gehenna.3625 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 I can barely keep track of the people in 1 guild. I'm amazed that people can manage 5 already. Not for or against this, but I would be interested in what this could mean for the game if they upped the number. Strange as it may sound but it could affect performance, for example, since it relates to the amount of information that has to be active for your characters when logged into the game. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lhifnir.7896 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 The Beetle Mount people could certainly use more guildslots, or an alternative way to visit guildhall tracks without taxing the limit of 5 (and not requiring a party or a squad) 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linken.6345 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 I agree with the OP as a Horder I want 5 more guild banks for all my stuff 3 is not enough I need 8 now. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moradorin.6217 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 I would rather see any dev time that is for guilds to look at Missions and Mission rewards vs trying to add more guilds. The guild system is pretty disfunctional. Missions could have rewards revamps to be relavent like stat selectable exotics for comms + gold perhaps and maybe some simple new things for vets to buy maybe too. And then maybe redo the Missions. Missions could be doing strikes, pof bounties, more world boss events maybe. It seems like Guilds are just in major need of things so why suggest dev time toward this *shrug* Just my take. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, at what point would you say being an active guild member turns into just taking a spot or being a guild membership collector? If any of that is even considered, maybe first increase the number of possible chat tabs 🙃 Edited September 11, 2022 by Sobx.1758 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If any of that is even considered, maybe first increase the number of possible chat tabs 🙃 I'd say that there are different guilds offering different things and some people just wanna tap into all of that. I am already on full and I have about 3 more guilds I'd like to join because each of them offers different kind of content I'd like to participate in. I just don't feel like trading one of the guilds I like and am already in for another one if it could be solved by allowing me to exist in all of them without any real impact to everyone else. I mean even if people did join guilds just to join that many guilds, how does that negatively impact your or anyone elses gameplay? The only thing I could think of is rigging the account value on GW2Efficiency by personal guild banks if it includes more than one when the conditions are met - not sure if they even decided to implement it or not, I just noticed some chatting about it while back. And I am also down for improved chat tabs system, it's rather obsolete. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not according to the devs. Before the first WvW restructuring beta, players were asking for one more guild slot so they could join an "alliance guild" without leaving any of their others. An ANet dev responded that the current limit is hardcoded in a way that is not simple to change. It's not like just adjusting a guild max parameter and calling it good. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to have just 1 guild we could talk to. Why do we have to draw a line. I can understand technical issues, but other than that, why limit the number of guilds a person can join. If the guild is willing to accept someone that belongs to many guilds, why stop them? What's the point? 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gert.7698 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Oh Yes! For some people its really nice that they can join More guild. I want to join a pvp guild and a guild created to do the marionette daily but i am allready in 5 guilds: a pve guild, a friend guild, a family guild, a wvw guild and a raid training guild I’m sure i’m not the only one is this situation! So pls let us join more guilds 3 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueberry.8095 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 (edited) I'm all for more guild slots! I've joined several other guilds for their activities without officially joining the guild in-game (but joined their discord), which is a shame because I could have more interaction with them when they're not on discord for scheduled event. It's very inconvenient because I need 1 or 2 people from the guild to add me and pm me when they need me to fill (ie: raid, or any other instanced content that were advertised within the guild which I can't see unless I'm in the guild. I don't always play around the same time everyday, therefore joining more groups would benefit me from playing with guilds that are active on different timezone (I'm sure people who work shifts can relate too, allegedly 😛).

Or give guilds more reasons to exist beyond daily node farm and a chat room. WvW has claim mechanics, which is cool, while PvE can... spawn 2-3 bosses? Even rework of PvE guild missions would be welcome - guild raid run, guild strike, guild fractals and so on 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashantara.8731 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 I have been bemoaning the 5-guilds limit for years. It's horrible design to have a 5 limit when there are so many different game modes and guilds specializing in them, plus people having solo guilds for storage etc. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ugrakarma.9416 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 (edited) 1. this ins't so simple, because the servers have to manage guilds chats traffic for each player, is basically doubling server use for this, it can impact performance. 2. Discord actually turned into a largest "guild hub". so u have a solution thats not impact gw2 performance.
