"As you know, we're working right now on content that will be previewed in the upcoming Beta Weekend Event. This new content will provide several types of guild challenges. I can imagine that competitive guilds would like to know stats about success and failure of their opponents in guild-versus-guild play, tournament play, and arena play as well. They might like to be able to check out the stats of individual players, too. Perhaps they'd like to appraise how well a player performs individually and as a member of a guild. I'm not sure that the distinctions would be easy to make, particularly since a person may play in different groups within a guild, or may join several guilds in the course of his involvement with Guild Wars, but that may be seen as useful information by other players."

I guess it's safe to say that if this month has a bit of a PvE focus, next month may take more of a look towards PvP content. You may have read that we're currently designing opportunities for Guild versus Guild combat. One of these will furnish you with an entirely new way to attack another guild's guild hall. (And the news around the water cooler is that you may see a few exciting changes in the guild halls themselves, too.) We're adding a number of new maps for GvG combat. The combat settings will cater to different kinds of playing styles, and will serve up a number of objectives. They'll even take place in different regions. One interesting aspect of GvG battle is that the maps will be randomly chosen and not player selected. So when you issue a guild challenge, you need to be prepared to undertake several different kinds of battle, and not simply choose the one at which your team is best. With this feature, the guilds at the top of the ladder will truly be the best of the best, because they will have proven themselves not as master of one mapset, but as the commander of many.

"When you play with skill, you will always be competitive. We don't set a marker for the amount of time and effort needed to acquire a full set of top-notch items, because such a pursuit really is optional. In a game involving players with equivalent items, if you have more skill and use a more creative strategy, naturally you will win. And in cases where you and your opponent have different inventories – say you are a good player with average items playing against someone who has invested a thousand hours in acquiring the best of everything – the chances still are great that you can win. For while there is no denying that wearing the best armour will give your opponent greater defense, and that wielding a mighty axe will furnish him greater attack power, neither of those things will tip the scales away from the likelihood that you will be victorious, when your gameplay is based on greater skill and a more clever strategy."

"We are working on a method that will allow you to advertise items that you have for sale or trade, or to locate other players who are offering the things that you are looking for. We think that sequestering people off in a different trade zone wouldn't be quite a fun as welcoming them into the towns. So we will devise a trade system that will function wherever you are, with no travel required."
