Guild Wars 2

[Henreh]

Really no thread about this?? FFXIV failed beyond belief and this is the next best thing that is coming out. Now that I'm going put time into this thread let us begin.

Teaser



The races.



Looks pretty generic so far eh? Let the devs sweet talk you into it ;D.

I just saw a video of this on spoonyexperiment review of PAX.
It's the review shortly after his FF14, which is not only hilarious but totally true..

Have to say, I got pumped just watching the dev discussion with spoony and gameplay introduction.
Even though I dislike MMO's because I bore easily, I can see myself forking the money for this title.
Why? Because the world doesn't wait for you, it's always "alive" and preforming many things in real time.

It's just a shame I won't be around to play it when it comes out.

[Eden]

Definitely playing this when its out.

The dynamic world seems to be working pretty well.

[Henreh]

well I edited opening post in a short time /goes to sleep.

[DarkRayne]

Played 1, 2 will be a must for me.

[Adun]

Played the first, but didn't complete a lot of it.
I still feel obligated to purchase the sequel.
It looks like it's going to be awesome.

[Seim]

I really hope GW2 is what I think it is. I really hate pure instance grinding (Vindictus, Dragonest?, Soul Master)

I like open fields and a good combat system!

[kuyaBaka]

I liiike. A lot.
Definitely going to buy this one. Definitely

[boomsticky]

Definitely my top MMO on my waiting list. Guild Wars 1 was probably the longest MMO I've ever played.

If any of you guys have played GW1 & planning to invest into GW2, play with their Hall of Monuments Reward Calculator: Hall of Monuments Reward Calculator

Basically any achievements you've reached in GW1 will convert into something in GW2.

Henreh, you forgot the Behind the Scene video (The voiceovers of the main characters):


Pretty leet voice cast if I say ;o

[Seru]

I loved the first game and have high hopes for the second. I just need to find a way to manage my time so I can play this game when it comes out.

[Noctis]

I really want this game when it comes out. They haven't announced any kind of release date yet, have they?

[Henreh]

^nope which is sad

I was so excited to see that TB would cover GW2 on his Gamescom Coverage series.


Y'all can find Part 2 on your own, I'm sure.

TB also has a video out showing one of the pvp modes playing as an engineer the first round and a ranger a second round.

Guild Wars 2 Beta Announced, 2012 Launch Confirmed - PC News at IGN

This is going to be a glorious year.

Spoiler!

I hope

It seems like it's not exactly OB though:

We will do Beta Weekend Events. Those of you who played Guild Wars might already be familiar with the concept. It means that many of you (like the blogpost says) will get a chance to participate in specific Events, but access won’t be unlimited – there will be some kind of selection criteria and the beta period will usually start on a Friday and end on the following Sunday.

I hope this helps.

Anyway I don't really mind whether I'm able to join the Beta or not, as long as they do release it this year...like around summer by latest if possible

Once it's out, I can finally ditch all the other games I'm playing and focus on just GW2, muhahahaha
