Title: So the huge update(next months one) will come with a guild reset right?
Post by: lara538 on February 26, 2013, 10:35:46 PM
The Swarmed Legion VS Winged Army update will come in the next months, and allie said only ppl from the same team can form a guild,then a guild reset will be needed to ppl choose teams and only form guilds with the ppl on the same team. A guild reset will happen in the next months at the same time  right?
If possible admins already say "Yes" and if "No" with some explanation plz :P
I wanna hear players opinions also ofc,u guys think im wrong or right?

There won't be another guild reset. When the update happens, you can pick any team you want and remain in the same guild. But after that, only players in the same team can be together in a guild.

Nah, if you choose Swarmed and your leader chooses Winged, then it doesn't mean anything you can still be in Swarmed Legion + your guild. But that's only because you were in your guild before the update.

Anyone who joins UnBalanced after the update will have to be in the same team as CodePurple

No.

In addition to what else was mentioned in this thread, it's currently planned that you MUST complete the three starting story mode missions in order to choose a faction, and without a faction you cannot do anything faction-specific (ie join a guild).
Same rules apply, you won't be removed from guild if you don't do it, but if you leave you won't be able to join, and you won't be able to take part in faction-specific portions of the game (such as some modes of pvp and bvb, aswell as the missions of story mode beyond the third mission).

How so? As a huge game-changing update that will shift the entire POINT and FEEL of the game, I welcome feedback.

Am I wrong, or does it mean you can choose to join the Winged/Swarmed army, and then stay in it forever on that account?
If you want to join another army, you need to create a new account?

still don't get it, that's why i asked for another answer.
I'll just wait the update out and go with the flow.

Max, as I said, once you choose a faction, you can't change it. If your question was for anything else, you'll have to be more clear.

How so? As a huge game-changing update that will shift the entire POINT and FEEL of the game, I welcome feedback.

IMO giving players the chance to choose between two different team and "shift the entire point and feel of the game" is a nice thing, but i also think that the game has some well confirmed "traditions", and to me guild part is too much restrictive. also, remember when silence and red were the only "top" guilds in the game and only a few were remotely as big as them? imo this new update would bring back a little bit of that situation. also what if one wants to group with his friends who are in the other team ???

also will the whole thing be advertised widely in the game cus otherwise its going to flop like red/blue team thingy

I'm just questioning everyting about this, i don't really get it, but as i said, i'll wait it out and see when it comes out :)
No worries. But i'll choose Swarmed Legion because i like your picture more than Yz's :p

We at BC always strived to move those traditions. If we still want to play BOTS, http://bots.zylongaming.com/ (http://bots.zylongaming.com/) will always be there for us.
The restrictiveness of guilds are for good reason; we want to encourage competitiveness between the factions, but you'll still be able to play with the other faction, just not in any faction-specific activities.

And with our new engine, we have full control to advertise in-game, but our main goal is for it to be such a likeable feature that word of mouth spreads it. Story mode is planned to have cutscenes, mission NPCs (that you aren't there to kill) and plenty of other features that will make you hardly realize you're still playing BOTS. Its a real feel changer, and we're pretty excited to roll it out.

Plus, with red/blue, it was an optional thing. You can't even join a guild until you've chosen a faction here, and it must be a faction-specific guild. That's going to encourage some things, right?

We are planning things such as the faction that has done more story mode runs (or something similar) gets an exp boost. These things are going to exist, but we haven't put too much thought into exactly what yet.
