Since we got a decent number of people playing...

And I have a number of City of Heroes buds playing as well.

Start a guild? Tag would be GH, of course. Name?

Man, I want a cape!

We need a good name (but not have it called gamehavoc). But i can't hink of one.... as a guild, we can even have our very own island (aka our guildhall)!

Why not Gamehavoc? :)

Well, we could have the tag GH.

That, or we could just say '**** it" and use a decent name. Maybe I'll use the name of my CoH sg; the Fist of Justice.

We used Silvertalon Mercenaries, in WoW.

Fist

I know Ferret.

My opinion is just that Silvertalon Mercenaries = random name.

Gamehavoc is our community name, and why not use it?

It's like if S*F called their community The Redeemeers(a pure example) and their guild S*F. Kinda retarded.

Just my 2 cents tho.

Yeah, but Gamehavoc doesn't really fit into GW. Hate names like that in a fantasy setting.

Fist
05-30-2005, 11:26 PM
Yeah i totally forgot that.

My bad :roll:

bring your friend along dk0, join the family :D

lets see if we can get more name suggestions. also the guild tag can get up to 4 letters, and the guild name MUST contain 2 (two) words.

I vote for The Fist of Justice.

Anyone know what's the deal with cape creation? How much does that cost?

Also, I got four furs for 50 gold each yesterday. Booyah!

Sure, why not... Use GH. It worked out real well for HAD in WoW.

This is my vote.

I don't see anything wrong with using the name GameHavoc. I think it shows an extra sense of community.

As for the comment about breaking a fantasy setting, since when does everyone in a game follow a "in-character only" rule for talking? If you're so worried about a guild name "GameHavoc" breaking fantasy settings then it must really irk you when you walk up to two people and they're talking about yesterday's school work while killing a few trolls (or whatever).

GameHavoc is a lot better than some of the names I've seen, like "G@/\/\E|-|@\/1(" for example. Now that's breaking fantasy settings.

But anyway, I doubt I'll be able to ever play this game so don't mind me.
/me votes with Ferret for an alternative name.

I'm already in a guild with some colleagues :(

Zantas

make them join us milamber, BRING FORTH THY COLLEAGUES TO BE MUTATED INTO OUR BIDDING!

so far, we got 2 votes for silvertalon and one for "Gigantic Hooters". I'm thinking we'll end up with SilverTalon Mercs.

2,000 gold for the cape.

You're seriously a lucky bastard. That's nuts.

Zantas
05-31-2005, 02:38 PM
i got a little over 1k gold in storage. i can make the guild and put half in for the capes. also guild halls are (from what i've heard kud0z say) 60k gold.

ferret
05-31-2005, 02:41 PM
I've currently got 1600 gold on my level 8 character.

Does guildwars have any carebear servers I could try out? Cuz, ya know, I can't hack PvP in WoW.

Drop the attitude. God you're so annoying these days.

There's only one "server world" in Guildwars. All areas are considered instances, except Towns and Outposts. These are treated sorta like City of Heros.. Multiple "versions/servers" of the towns/outposts exist and you can switch between them on the fly to meet up with friends. Once you're "out in the game" though, its basicly like a WoW instances and its just you and/or your group.

Guildwars has two modes: Roleplay Characters and PvP characters. Roleplay is normal gameplay mode, you start level 1, level up, gain skills, etc.

PvP characters start at maximum level and can ONLY PvP. They can't play the rest of the game. You have to use their pre-defined character templates, or if you've played the roleplay side of things you can use the skills you gained there and make your own.

PvP involves guilds and tournaments and arenas. It doesn't exist like it normally does in an MMORPG, because players each have their own "server" when they aren't in cities. How can you have 'normal' PvP when the entire world is treated as an instance?

Canon
05-31-2005, 02:57 PM
Wow, they just GIVE you maximum level? What kind of crap is that? Wow, to hear people talk I would have thought this was a great game... I'm a little less interested now. Oh, well...

And what the hell did I do to annoy you? Jesus, Ferret... I've got a whole box of tampons for you.

ferret
05-31-2005, 03:07 PM
You said WoW completely sucked too.. Then you bought it. :)

You annoy me because of your attitude in 99% of your posts, an attitude you didn't have 4-5 months ago. :)

ferret
05-31-2005, 03:09 PM
Plus its fun to pick on you. :)

Hey, I said Condition: Zero sucked too... and you harassed me until I bought it. Gee thanks, that wasn't a waste of money, you bastard. :P

Anyhow, what did I say sucked about WoW? Cite an example and I'll tell you if my opinion has changed. Likely not... the graphics in that game are still shitty, regardless of whether or not I've come to enjoy the gameplay.

Plus its fun to pick on you. :)

Oh, that's cool then. :)

ferret
05-31-2005, 03:12 PM
You went on for paragraphs at a time about how you couldn't roleplay a thief just like in NWN. I told you you couldn't, and you said as a result you could never enjoy the game, blah de blah da da.

Anyways. CZ > CS 1.6 ... Nothing sucked about it. It IS superior. The issue is that it should enver have been CZ.. It should have been CS 1.7 and shoved down everyone's throats.

Way to derail the thread ladies :P

If I was gonna play Guild Wars, I would vote for Giant Hooters! C'mon now? Who doesn't like giant hooters?

Zantas
05-31-2005, 03:18 PM
They give you maximum level BUT unless you unlock skills and items (like runes and weapon upgrades) you're stuck with a very bland PvP charactar.

i feel like going to the guild registrar and just making it silvertalon since no other GOOD names have been mentioned (i'd rather not be called i giant breasted man).

Thanks to Zantas for chipping in the cash for our fabulous new capes. We came up with the design:
Red faded to black background, silver (as close as we could get it) griffen in the foreground.

It was the only thing with talons. :)
