As GW Nightfall is the last chapter of a trilogy, it's very possible that the next game won't have Guild Wars as part of the name. Thus, ANet might have registered a name patent already, but you just haven't found it. Never make assumptions.

Chapter 4 will be "The World of Guild Wars" and it will be pay-to-play.

Unlike most "expansion packs," the new campaigns will be approximately equal in size to the initial campaign of Guild Wars.

Tide to Go
[QUOTE=Rahja the Thief]So, I was digging around looking for a possible lead to the name of the next chapter of Guild Wars, and I came up with NOTHING. I knew about Nightfall 3 weeks after Factions released, the name at least. It is strange how ANet/NC Soft have not decided on a name yet. I find that disturbing, since, they said a new chapter every 6 months. Maybe that 6 month promise isn't in order this time around? If anyone else can dig up anything on this, post it here. All I have so far is this:
they have fully developed gw4 and the title might be out there but we are to stupid i mean the title was in the first campaign for elona .....they said every 6 months because they had everything planned out since the beginning....just thought id let ya know O and they are working on gw5 right now also not far in it but they r still worken on it

I'd be very much up for a year. Assuming that Ch 4 is made primarily by the Factions team, and since Factions is half a game, they'd need twice the time. Plus I have a buttload of toons to take through NF now, and 8xSunspear/Lightbringer point accumulation + I like to do every mission/quest available on all toons, a year will be what it takes.......

Anyways...GW4 will be called: Guild Wars: Orr.
Those Orr fellows seem like they were cool people. Now they're just annoying Skeletal Rangers who mob me at unfortunate times. *lol*

It was said that Chapter 3 was a kind of completion of a trilogy. So how do we know there will even be a chapter 4? What if it's a new game entirely? Guild Wars is called such because of the storyline based in the time after the last guild wars. So if this 'trilogy' deals with that storyline, then the next game might not even be called Guild Wars.

If they were making a new series...I suppose they would tell us.
But then again, the name "Guild Wars" itself in my opinion isn't a very good name, because alot of the game doesn't even mention guilds, even though there are guild battles and such.
So your right, maybe the next game won't have the name "Guild Wars"....but if they were making an new series, they would definatly tell us.

Course, they should keep with the current game play mechanic and call the name "Guild Tag" or "Whack-a-monk"... then at least the game play and name would actually fit what we do in game.

May I remind you that Nightfall was released early, as were the betas.
Master Fuhon
The original post was using a train of thought that discovered the progress of the fourth game based on the name. I would always give my stories titles very close to finishing them. Basically, the title is more of a marketing feature that doesn't have to be completed until the important parts of the game are done. Single words can be swapped in and out using a thesaurus or something similar. No title doesn't necessarily mean no story has been written.
If you don't believe that, you can swap in Guild Wars: Revelations, Apocalypse, Alliance, or Twilight for any of the other names in the series and see how that fits the game. And to also replace any uses of the current title in character dialog, etc

I am just worried that this next chapter will be crappy, sorta like Factions. DONT DISAPPOINT FACTIONS TEAM! Register a cool name already.
