Project name : The Underdogs
Hello everyone out there, and welcome to the project “The Underdogs”, I will try to be as brief as possible, so I won’t take much of your precious time.
As far as every serious mmorpg gamer I know, they always hated one thing, to zerg, well I know that I hate it myself.
With the upcoming release of Guild Wars 2 and the WvW outdoor pvp Arenanet has prepared for us, I know and I suppose everyone who reads this article, knows that the area “The Mists” as they call it will be a 3 way battle between servers.
What I always hated myself, along with many fellow players I have played with, is zerging. And we all know that being in the Zerg side, is boring and dull.
This project is about gathering some very good and structured guilds together to the same server, this means, no zerg guilds, no guilds with random people just to fill up numbers, and only small group of players.
Obviously randoms will join the server, and some friends of friends, but that’s irrelevant, what we want to avoid is the Spanish, Russian and some other zerg guilds that exist through games, and that obviously will move together to some servers so they can zerg their hearts out.
That doesn’t mean I hate Spanish or Russian people, obviously there are some pretty good small groups out there consisted from only Russians for example, these people are welcome, what we don’t want is the zerg.
So what is the plan ?
First and most important is that guilds must be invited to this project, and not free to join. Guilds that love Outdoor PvP, guilds that are not big by themselves. If you have 2 good groups that have this kind of thinking, but you are inside a guild with 200 members, you are free to join us with the 2 groups, but you have to leave the rest of your guild behind.
In the end we don’t want to see 3 and 4 hours queue at the start, no reason for that. 500 good players and you know you can group with are better than 4000 players that you would never group with. And as Auction House is Global between the servers, we won’t have economy problems too. An honourable mention is that the outdoor pvp area will have player limit Caps, so better not have queue there as well.
This project will support the idea of PUGs, between the guild themselves, supports soloers that maybe want to join this kind of server but has no guild, and obviously the greater idea, is to make a strong player base, for competitive PvP, as well as Outdoor domination, and not with numbers but with skills.
What is more refreshing than winning versus full servers when you play from a medium populated server,
What is more refreshing that playing in competitive arenas, and the top 8 teams are from the same server and they talk with each other after the fight is over.
For guild leaders, what is more refreshing than losing a member, and actually have good players that you are willing to take them and fill up the loss, without thinking that, that player most probably is a bad player.
This game will become and e-sport, I truly believe this, so what’s better than being able to find replacements easy and fast.
You don’t need to have of course the best of the best guild out there, the greater idea is to gather up players and guilds for starters that don’t hide behind a zerg, that they actually want and need to fight by their own skills.
I have seen many guilds like that, back in the days in DAoC, but now days that’s something non existent, I don’t know where all these players went, even players from back then now tend to zerg, attitude changed? No idea.
For this project I/WE will need help, I obviously don’t know all the good non zerging guilds out there, remember you don’t even need to like me to join this project, you don’t even need to like each other, obviously some people will not go so well with each other, but what we all need is players that hate to zerg, small groups roaming, easy pugging, proving to players out there, that numbers is not everything, and when is some rare occasions we combine our groups, because we learned to depend on our own skills, the result will be devastating for our opponents.
If you have played DAoC and you liked to roam as an 8 man group,
If you have played WAR and you liked to roam as a 6 man group,
If you have played WoW and you liked competitive pvp on even numbers,
If you hated all other games, just because their pvp was just another zerg fest.
Then don’t hesitate to reply here with a representative from your guild, and get an invitation to this European project to gather NON-ZERGERS !!
2 Last things:
1st I hate my English and forgive me for any mistakes.
2nd Spread this article, you are free to copy paste this article, to any site you know, and I really encourage it, just make sure to re-direct people to this thread, so they can contact me. If someone wants to help with the project, feel free to PM me, as we will need a lot of coordination.
Not all guilds will be accepted, and guilds accepted will be announced. I am not someone who can judge by himself if a guild is accepted, so I will need as much help as I can get.
Best Regards to all,
