Fit.9405 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I'm probably in the minority of thinking on this one but something kinda weird when the names are just carbon copies of each other for na and eu. Maybe give both na and eu a list to vote on from see what they alliance names should be. just a thought, or maybe down the line we get to name our own alliances who knows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not alliances. Different things. Alliances, if they ever come, would be named by players just like guilds upon creation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazrul.3086 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 They definitely need to give us better team names. I can't take any of the beta ones seriously. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zok.4956 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 (edited) They should have let us vote for the names of our servers and the server names in the achievement title. I would have voted for "Abbadöner" (yes, the "bb" is intentional 😇)😉 Edited May 21 by Zok.4956 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infusion.7149 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 It is like caring what your (ingame) retirement home is called... as long as it is inoffensive it really does not matter in the grand scheme of things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Alliance system is shelved and doesn't have names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XenesisII.1540 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I suggested before they use the dragons and gods names for the worlds. The beta names are terrible and hope they don't use them. Not like any of it matters anymore, everyone is just green blue red these days anyways. 🤷♂️ 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Course I also find it funny since they also seem to think they can better hide behind corners or objects and seem to have forgotten that it doesn't impact the other side if they use the standard name plates and they are quite easy to see. 🙂 But yes get a lot of '<Server Name>, 25+ south Bay, 4 cats outer, double wall'. 'What color is that?'. 'Um, what?' lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheIceman.1039 Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 anet should do a contest for new "server" name ideas. Let the players come up with ideas for new names. The current beta server names are boring, and not really related to wvw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGrimm.5624 Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 I think my only issue with this is it really won't mean anything. This month you are associated to one, but it has no value any way since next month you will be on another one. Server names pretty lose any value after June. A month later any rivalry with said other server means nothing since you have no idea if those players are still there. To a lot of players its going to be get blue, kill green, where is red!? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infusion.7149 Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 @urd.8306 Not really, if there is a community contest they can just choose the names out of the nominees. Just because something is submitted does not mean it has to be used. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

urd.8306 Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 That's what I meant. Dietmar Hamann Bridge. Bad losers those English. Quote The White Horse Bridge is a footbridge that crosses the tracks at Wembley Stadium railway station leading up to Wembley Stadium in Wembley Park, England. The LDA received over 670,000 nominations from all over the world. The name with the most nominations, however, mainly coming from Germany, was Dietmar Hamann, who scored the last goal at the old Wembley Stadium. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
