Yes but it was only discussed with a few people.

[knite.1542]

Do you still think alliances are real?

[Senqu.8054]

i am pretty sure the only guy who knew where the alliance system project was saved left and now they can’t find it anymore xD

[Some Call Me Tim.2319]

I bet someone that alliance wouldn’t come last summer. I haven’t heard from him since. No 50g for me. lol

The first year they announced it I bet someone that it wouldn’t be out by the end of the year (like this person expected). Where’s my gold too, lol.“Let’s all start making alliances now cause they will totally be out in 7 months” - naive ppl who trusted anet.

Alliances are coming with Expansion 3 as a 'added feature to WvW', change my mind.

I think it is more likely that they were never even a real project.

Agree, they will throw in alliances with the third expansion, which isn't likely to release for a couple years.

[primatos.5413]

For sure they will put it into the expansion maybe the only way to force wvw only players to buy it O.o

[Henry.5713]

They will release around the same time as Fractal Leaderboards.

If it is released with the expansion, it won’t be purchasable.

It won’t change who can access WvW.

Kinda like people were saying that they wouldn't lock WvW items like shield gens etc behind a pay wall....Oh, wait....

Oh I don’t doubt they will have items to add to WvW that will require the expac.

But alliances won’t be one of them.

Unless they are going to banish non expac players to EoTM..

Which I guess they could do lol.

Stop giving them ideas you mad man/woman/Apache Helicopter!

[ArlsTipsierAlt.9138]

They founds a new way to monetize it, after 3.5 years they will finally release it as part of the new expac. Enjoy!

[Excursion.9752]

If alliances do come out it more than likely will be a flop. The longer you wait for something the higher the expectations get. Just ask the people from 3D Realms about how Duke Nukem Forever turned out.

No, will be the 2nd reason. The main reason will be the new broken and OP eSpecs, which is why they are nerfing all the current ones.

[Lahmia.2193]

Alliances will come with the expac, as Desert Borderlands did with HoT. After all, we're going to Cantha where Alliance Battles took place.

[len.7809]

They said, in the incoming MONTHS. They did not say when but the incoming months could be 10 months, 20 months, even 50.

[Vostroyan.9214]

Aliences Will Kill WvW. Stop asking for it. Play the game and find out about it your selfs. Cause any server that tried to do any alience lasted less then 1 Month. Stop hiding in the forums and ask people ingame and not here.

[Calisanna.8732]

At this point I could care less about alliances. I just want anet to communicate with us. I’d rather them come out and say they dropped the project, it’s taking longer than expected or it won’t be out for another two years then play this game no communication. I despise ppl who dangle the carrot and don’t follow through, or own up to their mistakes.Just talk to your player base!Remember when new pvp WvW dev took over and we all had hope with his/her communication? Didn’t take long for him/her to stop did it?

That pretty much covers it. Well said!

[Notsoperky.4291]

I'd say 'I told you so' on my other account but then I'd probably be two week banned again just like the last time I said it.....but that doesn't alter the fact that after however many months/years etc it's all gone quiet in the wvw 'dev team' (another mythical beast that doesn't exist- or at least there is no evidence that it does).
