    Wondering. Are they still planning to release Guild Wars in the future?
    Or is this Midoki's version of Guild Wars?
    Anyone know.

    In short, it's the first of our guild v guild features.

    A Rumble is a 24 hour fight where five guilds compete to earn the most BP through PvP combat - BP earned through errands or exploration doesn't contribute to your Rumble score. The prizes your guild gets depends on where they place on the Rumble leaderboard - obviously the better you do, the more loot to be had!

    Will it be random 5 guilds?
    Or can we challenge 4 guilds that we want to fight? :rolleyes:

    Based on matchmaking I imagine. More than likely use guild rank to pool guilds.

    ^ This. Matchmaking is based on the guild rank and size, with tiered rewards. A Rumble containing five guilds with high ranks will have the chance to win much higher rewards than Rumbles for lower ranked guilds. This will hopefully encourage guild members to increase and maintain their rank, rather than squatting at the bottom of the rankings. ;)

    And when you say rewards, you of course mean gems...;)

    That'd depend on how highly placed you are... ;)

    Sounds great

    2 questions @Lynsey [Midoki]
    When is the update?
    When will the normal match making System change? Cant see +0 / -24 anymore
     
  13. When have they ever given an answer to "when"?
     
  14. I actually appreciate the fact we are getting this much disclosure. I can't blame Midoki though. If something changes, I.e. Apple processing times, and everybody has an expectation, then they get mad at Midoki rather than just annoyed.

    I doubt they will ever give predictions on release date again, not after the PH 8 delay (aka Update Gate). Lol
