Official GC Unbinding Petition

[Cidolfas86]

Is there actually an official Dev response to removing the GC requirement? People keep referencing one but I haven't seen anything specific.

PvP
At launch of Heavensward, we will have a new Frontline battle, with a new map and new rules. It will continue to be Grand Company based, but while before each Grand Company would start at a select location and the map, in Heavensward we will see a randomized starting location which will impact play. Armor rewards associated with Frontlines will also be updated. After that point they will update the Wolves Den.

From the Pax east interview that gamerscape did. All of my sadness :/

Though grand company based could mean anything, it doesn't have to mean they keeping GC restrictions so much as the names themselves. Then again this feels more like wishful thinking on my part.
