Charr Warrior or Sylvari Necromancer will probably be my first chars. I find the idea of a plant being obsessed with death (and undeath) to be rather interesting.

[Doctalen]

Sylvari are plants? Makes me think of Delvians

I have a key for Tera Online. Beta this weekend. 


Have GW2 beta invited been sent out?

[Cyberarmy]

Yeah 2 of my friends got beta invite and will be playing this weekend.

I dastardly hope their wives wont allow them and they pass this beta event to me.
Fools hope.

I didn't get mine, yet.

But sorta miffed at ArenaNet right now, I don't mind not getting it at this point.

Miffed because of the RMT.
They were bragging so much about being able to sustain an AAA MMO off sales alone, and they end up bringing in a RMT that's by far the worst I've seen yet.

In a nutshell, you buy "gems". With real money.
You exchange gems for gold, in game.
You buy anything you want from shops.

Complete idiocy.

They may have said that at the time of GW1 but AFAIK they've always said there would be RMT involved in GW2. A mmo with the investment GW2 would have had would clearly need more than just box sales to sustain it and provide a return.

Not IMHO when you consider the game we're getting without subscription fees. This is not like what happened with EVE.

So they abandon the tank/healer/DPS trinity and showcase this " no one needs anyone, all can heal!" thing as some sort of a new and exiting thing? Such a perfect circle! This is what once was, no? Before turning into yesterday's news, Tank/Healer/DPS arrangement used to be the advanced, evolved form of the setup Guild Wars 2 will now re-introduce.

..Not calling it a bad decision as such or anything. No reason why it couldn't be exiting and tons of fun. Just that it..bothers me they make the self reliancy sound like some giant leap of evolution.

No, they never said anything about allowing RMT before the recent blog-post about micro-transaction. If you're sure they did, provide proof in the form of a link to your source.

I'm with Corto on this one. RMT means Pay2Win, and there's no way I'm getting GW2 as long as they keep that line.

They've explicitly guaranteed that it won't be like that.

[The King of Dust]

What they say isn't worth anything in the face of what they do. And the term "guarantee" doesn't apply here. They won't give you your money back if GW2 ends up being Pay2Play.

Bioware told me they wouldn't have a generic ending. 

Still I'll give ANet the benefit of the doubt. 

[Morroian]

Well the way items seem to work in GW2 implies that players won't be able to end up with gear with uber stats, plus this way they are undercutting the trading that would inevitably occur outside the game.

[Andarthiel_Demigod]

 Wow, this beta is pretty impressive(even though I didn't get the race I wanted)

[jsntjia]

pre-purchase this game , just going to see how it fares with other mmorpgs that i played before.

[Cyberarmy]

Got a chance to play yesterday night. Havent got any notificiation about joining to stress test but i tried before going to bed. AHHA!

Game is solid&fun at first look. I got lost in large scale battles/event(i blame too much alcohol after a hard work day, it was really friday the 13th for me)

Played as a axe&warhorn necro amd loved it. Also tried staves, they seem to have more aoe and debuffing/minions. Not appeling for me as axe&off hand but maybe at later levels where i got every skill opened.


Well im doomed yet again More sleeples nights on coming.

[Chromie]

You bastard! I wanna get in the beta

Double post


New beta clients are ready to use, start downloading
But i still dont get why we have to install all of the game again... They couldnt have changed that lots,no?
Thanks too our great internet provider, I will be having a long downloading session :/ 40KBs.... Back to the stone ages.

[Morroian]

Got my beta copy downloaded and ready to go. Rather than spoil the single player experience I think I'm going to spend the entire weekend pvping, the options for pvp are great, can't wait to try the world vs world.
