    Post Your Guild Wars Ideas Here

    I am assuming when Guild Wars begin
    you will be able to schedule a war with an enemy guild.

    However I see a challenge in this:
    Most guilds have members from around the globe and do not play
    at same times. I find it difficult to even hold a vending machine event.

    Most times when I am in a server with guild mates they are on opposing teams

    My Idea:

    A guild team scramble which is tracked by stats so these "wars" are recorded.
    What I mean is that say a server if filled with guild players. A vote can be done to scramble ally guilds together to play against enemy and neutral guilds. Then the results can be tracked in stats. So for instance, I am playing with 4 guild mates and also there are 5 members from ally guilds. Then we all get scrambled on same team. Then all enemy guild players and neutral guild members go on other team. Make sense? Of course there might be some issues such as if there are no enemy guilds. In that case it would have to be majority guild on one team against others. Or maybe guilds could just change diplomacy. Another issue is if leaders/coleaders are playing.

    It seems like this could occur more often than a scheduled guild war.

    This is why I have 3 guilds monger lol. Sounds cool personaly if you could do that then everyone could benefit from the war and have a blast with others from larger or smaller guilds. :D I know my guildmates can't always play at a specifip time because we got usa uk hk Germen and others around the globe.

    But most guilds have eachother as allies and only a few as enemy so there are more chances of having <10 enemies in the opposite team

    Thanks Raised for input.

    I do think that the diplomacy is not an issue since it can be changed in secs.

    I also think guilds have allied simply for the added health.

    I brought up this idea because there is no info on forum about guild wars still, including
    how they will work and when they will start. And I have read the info in wiki which is vague at best.
    It seems like the new stuff gets shared with admins first which gives their guilds an advantage.

    Well all the players/admins that got to test guild before they were released have the highest ranking in guilds (I know they were reset but when they were leveling for real everyone else was like "What's a Guild?". I know I was dumbfounded when guys started having 2 knives. I think I saw someone testing the BFG the other day but I don't hear anything about it or when it will come out. So I guess that's what I meant. Or I heard there was god mode being tested and I don't know anything about that either. Or the new buffs that are unattainable? No info on that either here....

    Idk what HC is adding to Guild Wars, but here's what I'm adding (note: these game modes must be voted on-- you will never be forced to play in any of the game modes I create, dunno about HC's xD):

    Survivor vs. Survivor and Infected vs. Infected Game Modes
    Imagine being able to 8v8 another team comprised full of survivors just like your team. On top of the heated PR battle, you'll be versing another guild in Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, and Territory game modes. L4D2 will turn into something like Call of Duty momentarily with survivor respawns, team based effort, and Guild-based TrueSkill (the average trueskill of your guild) buffs.

    I've also custom designed a sophisticated new tank called the "Hell Tank," and guilds will be able to battle that and see who lasts the longest.

    Do you mean that survivors will be shooting opposing team survivors? I always laughed how the jockey should be able to force survivor to shoot other survivors. Anyway thanks. I am sure many will be interested in these ideas. I still don't get trueskill but honestly I haven't read about it yet. I like the idea of territory game mode.

    I have played survivors vs survivors, not played infected vs infected yet.Using boomer bile ,pipe bomb and melee on other survivors like a ninja is alot of fun.Guns was not allowed in that server when playing 1 vs 1 with admin of that server in a closed room :)

    The last time I was testing this with Luke, survivors spawned on checkpoints. If he'll keep it like this I'd say we need a few seconds of spawn protection...

    They'll spawn at predefined checkpoints. You'll have killstreaks, guns, 8v8 survivors, PR trueskill and whatnot.

    This sounds really good, especially the hell tank.:) I imagine infected vs. infected to be funny.
