    I know I speak for many guild leaders/representatives when I say it would be absolutely amazing to know what the member cap is for guilds. It would really help us in our planning and preparation for in game guilds.

    I know you like to announce things and hype them and so on, but it would be really great if this time we were given the information we so desperately desire.

    All my love,

    CT-333

    Based on other games i say its less than ur number of friends. Obviously something official would be nice
    May the force be with you. It shall free you.

    Sweet B) In all seriousness this is a fair request in my opinion. If this content is a month away, it would be nice to already have our guild assembled and ready for release.

    Can we have a bit more detail? Does it cost money to create a guild? Who can do it? Will we have an in-game tag?

    You're too kind. ;-)

    FYI - @EA_Jesse will be posting a lot more info over the coming days about each of the major features of this update. Those will appear as announcements so they don't get lost in one particular thread or another.

    Thanks.

    Erm. Figured it's easier to chime in on your post @cosmicturtle333

    I apologise for tagging in the devs but I have another pertinent question for @CG_JohnSalera @EA_Jesse @CG_RyDiggs @CG_AaronNemoyten

    If the guilds are going to be cross server which I presume they will be. We have a lot of people with the same generic default names. Will they have the option for a one time name change or perhaps a one time change for 10/20 crystals? I know clash did a similar thing when they introduced wars. Otherwise you could have 10 Mol Eliza in your guild and communication will be difficult.

    Again apologies for tagging everyone but figure this may need some attention

    What I would appreciate seeing is information from EA/CG before the update arrives concerning all these details and how they will work, such as the meta change, guild and raid features and any other changes coming. We all don't want to fly blindly not understanding what you added without instructions....

    I dont play online games normally but this is a time killer and its Star Wars. So i apologise for for my lack of knowledge.
    I understand what the word Guild means so can only presume in gaming terms its a choice group of people helping eachother, competing at something together and sharing the reward therefore increasing your own chance at success? Yes?

    What i worry about is none of my real friends (as in people i socialise with as apposed to social media or online 'friends') play this game which makes me think i will be left out in the cold. Will this become 'clicky', elitist and alienate people like me?

    @cosmicturtle333 i see alot of your posts (and although very humourous at most times) i get the impression you know your stuff and have played these types of game before. What are your thoughts?

    Not at all @JSithwalker

    On the contrary this is a way to make friends. I don't know any of the people in my guild in real life, but it turns out one of them lives just five minutes down the road from me.

    There will always be different levels of guild some will be elitist, some will be casual and fun. Just find one that suits you and go from there. If it doesn't work out then leave and join another one, or even start your own.

    The guilds that have already been created are less than 1% of the guilds that will exist when they go live. So there will be casual ones created on the day and preprepared ones like mine.

    I definitely recommend heading over to the guild section and browsing to see one that suits you. I'm sure one will take your fancy.

    The way larger guilds will handle this is to create Tiers or groups of players and have multiple guild groups playing so, as an example, Group 1 would be your best players who are mostly whales, Group 2 may be dolphins, Group 3 may be advanced free player teams, etc....
