This suggestion I’m making is a hope and maybe even a measuring tool of sorts of adding some really cool social functions into the game. Many players wish to see the social functions be widened more. I can agree with this sentiment. While I do frequently browse this Forum; it’s not something I see a whole lot being mentioned as of late despite the sentiment and the wants being known to the general playerbase. This suggestion is a step towards this direction.
I wish to see a “Guild” Function of sorts that I will call the “Forward Operation Center” or Outpost for short. In the Outpost it has several cool features that allows for bigger social activities, easy-to-use rewards in favor of players of both F2P and Premium Players, special upgradeable buildings the Guild can work on to make grinding easier, and a few unique features that tie all 3 together.
A Guild can’t function without some kind of materials. This “currency” can be called Bonds which are easy to get. All you need to do is play the game. That’s it, nothing fancy. With double the Bond reward for completing the match. This would favor players for sticking around even on a terrible loss. The Bonds CAN’T be bought with Enlisted Gold.
Now what do you use these Bonds for? For starters there will be special buildings that offer unique bonuses for the players in the same Guild. Now I’m not going to make a list of what can a building feature in the guild be and what not because that can be an entire Thread of itself. Instead I’ll just mention 2 examples to give an idea. One of them is increasing your Silver Gain per match. This would be a percentage amount which again there are many “levels” to upgrade the building to some Max Level. Another is to increase XP for your soldiers, making them easier to get all the perks for them quickly.
Which leads of question of well what if you have upgraded all those special buildings to max level? Well there would also be a Guild Shop! With it you can get basic rewards/supplies like Silver or a weapon upgrade order or awesome stuff like some of the old Battlepass Weapons or special Camos for your tanks and planes that once bought you can keep and use (historical of course)! I’d even suggest placing a special powerful Booster in the Shop that at the end of the battle in the Battle Results Screen that if you did well you can use it to double the rewards if you deem it worthy! Or how about unique Squads with some kind of special weapon? Yeah you can do that. And cool thing is that depending on the item in question some of them get restocked at the beginning of every month, meaning you can keep getting the basic items you need or want!
The Outpost can’t function without some kind of communication; which is where the social functions would be broaden. Here you can recruit people into your Outpost and allow messages between members in a special guild chat of sorts. You can find out which guildmate is currently in a fight, where, and which faction they are playing. And here is a cool features to mention here. It is allowing any guildmate to use the Squad you have selected in an appropriate manner. Do you have a German Squad setup and your guildmate is playing the Germans with the right BR? Your guildmate can use your squad to help in the fight! Yeah you can also do that! Heck you can even make a feature for increasing the Bond reward for playing with guildmates!
While the Outpost is something I do wish to see; I understand the Merge is going to need a lot of attention first. Fixing bugs, rebalancing a few weapons here and there, and even introducing new stuff to add balance just to name a few. I just hope this Thread/Topic is something that attracts a lot of attention and maybe even the general playerbase to like such a feature? This is at least my suggestion for it. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk!
