    The assortment of emblems was pretty poor. And some emblems even didnt match with the colors or didnt really fit.

    I hope ANET will present at Release a wide ragne of different emblems and better Options in teh Emblem Creator.

    I have a feeling that we will see stuff like that in the itemshop later, it is just the type of stuff they can charge for without making the game pay2win.

    Heck, I could see myself paying for a guildtatoo on my characters arm or something (except on charrs, you would have to shave them for that).

    True, even in gw1 we have very few emblems to pick from. In general weak design, still hope they will add more, also more background/crest variations.

    If in 1982 we played with the current mentality, we would have burned down all the pac man games since the red ghost was clearly OP. Instead we just got better at the game.

    You can wear the emblems on your armor. Seen a screenshot of an asura with guild emblem on armor chestpiece.

    Click here. Hopefully that person with the video compilation sees this and posts it on his/hers.

    Gallery of guild emblems - Guild Wars 2 Wiki (GW2W)  well it does seem somewhat lacking, but if i remember right, like in the original Gw, they added more as they went along, also had player designed emblems and such. They never let you just use a picture or something however so who knows where they might go with that.

    I'm sorry but the only one saying anything about the second coming is you. Fans of a game accept its flaws and strengths.

    What Arenanet could do is we make our own emblem from scratch. This is BTW an idea for cash shop. We submit our design to them then wait for approval. This is to avoid inappropriate design. After that we can use it for our guild. There are long time hadcore guilds that will be playing GW2 coming from other games and I'm pretty sure they want to retain there team insignia so I think this won't be a bad idea. What do you guys think?

    simply atm the problem is s you  too often have people with similar emblems because theres not enough to go around. im fine if they added more varaity  and take a page from the Battle log emblem maker. (battlefeild 2)

    there is a creator here to mess with them.

    i hope they increase the options in the future.

  • RaekonRaekon Member UncommonPosts: 532

    Well for now they have 11 backgrounds and 50 different logos which makes a total of 550 possibilities.

    For that start it looks ok since most guilds won't be able to do the whole research THAT fast but 550 possibilities are indeed not much if you consider that 1000s of guilds will pop up in a flash.

     

    To increase the combinations the most more backgrounds needs to be provided to begin with cause only 11 backrounds is very slim.

    I hope they will add more backgrounds and logos soon after the release or in the release already so we won't have all the guilds running around with the same emblem. :p

    for me is more then just about what they give us, its also a little that we have very little contol on how it will look. its  only about what they give us, and our minds cant go wild, i  cant make an identity with it.

     

    i felt the same in GW1

    its not just 550 possibilities, you did not include colors. you can customize background color and the symbol itself, many if not all, are 2-toned, unlike in GW1 which is monotoned.

    i'm glad that i can use the same emblem of our guild from GW1 in GW2, but still everyone's right. more variety, more fun.

    would have been nice if you could also get to choose what weapon/ armour sets your guild can use
