• Hey Guest. Check out your NeoGAF Wrapped 2025 results here!

Guild Wars 2 Launch Date announced: August 28th, 2012

Damn, Gate of Madness is full. :(

Well shit. Guess I won't be playing WvW with you guys this weekend then.

Guess that's evidence enough that we don't want to be on an overpopulated server. Anyone have any recommendations for a secondary server to roll on? Back to Henge of Denravi?
 
Ok i'm just going to say it. WvWvW is boring when you control everything. There's nothing to do. This proved a point earlier about the que's or constant dominance in which you contribute nothing.

Gate of Madness....
 
I'd say something harsh like "NEITHER ARE YOU" but you appear to be using a real pic avatar and that would certainly be undue. So let's just say that I may not agree with the words you say but I'll defend to the Mists your right to say them

ahaha

on a different note, I'm getting somewhat tired of quickness + ability spam one-hit kill combos. Quickness needs to go.

I'm gettin much better performance than the last two beta weekends. Also really digging my Sylvari sword/board guardian. Might stick with this combo come launch!

Exactly. Picking a highly populated server is tough since it'll segment the GAF group but I guess deciding so early on makes it hard to tell how each server will turn out.

I'll go to wherever else people decide to go for North American players.
 
So any plans for a fallback server or plans for Gates of Madness to re-open? I'm on the server and my brother who logged in 15 minutes later can't even get in.
 
Except it's the first day of matchmaking, there was a very slim chance of landing against other opponents that could compete.
It's not really about that man. It's about having a queue in general. While WvW may be your main focus, it may not be for everyone else in the guild. So queues and all that just hinder everyone's enjoyment of the game.

Tomorrow, they'll put us up against a similar ranked World.

Let's see by Sunday how it is first before complaining.
 
I think we should get to a middling server and build from there. The results of this BWE combined with what the big boys plan to do for launch should be good enough information to go on.
 
I'll be home in about an hour. Preeeetty psyched to hop on this shit.
 
I know this is ignorant and probably prideful but i'd rather lose and tried my best to actually make a difference then win and just sit on my ass twiddling my fingers.
 
I get off work in 5 hours. All this talk about servers full already, wonder if scaling back NA servers was a good idea. If its full when I get home, honna try for Henge, or Tarnished Coast.
 
I'm moving to Henge of Denravi if anyone who can't get into Gates of Madness would like to join me, I might attempt at making a temporary GAF guild.

After making a Guardian,Engineer and Thief I am really enjoying the Mesmer right now in the Silvary area...at one point I had 5 copies of myself fighting a Boss in my Story instance hehe...I was 2 level lower also and didn't die,whith my Guardian I would of been toast... :P (meaning the Guardian was my first character in the BWE,I learned to use the dodge and kitting technique better now).
 
Hey Retro, you lazy bastard. I sent you a PM. Where is my guild invite? >:(

If someone could send a guild invite, my name is thetrin.8716

Just ordered the game and loading the client now. Got my Beta invite for this weekend.

Never played GW1.

From what I've played so far, GW2 is very different anyway, so you don't really gain a ton by having played GW1 (outside of lore)
 
Just like the first game I really am not a big fan of the combat so far, but goddamn dat presentation. Even when you log out the transition is awesome. Incredible stuff.

I PM'd him too, pretty sure he is getting mass requests.
 
I played some Human Necromancer. Was the part up to the giant elemental the "tutorial"? I didn't learn much haha, will play more later!

And I went to anvil rock because GoM was full. Can I switch during the beta?
 
Once you can create a character on Gates of Madness is it pretty easy to get on? Do they just put you on the overflow servers when you log in? I am wondering if I should keep trying to log on to Gate of Madness or just roll on another server?

I got DC many times and can get inside easily, sometimes in the overflow, others in the main.
 
Here's Thanasis' thing with a link to his profile...



I'm trying to find my original post which explains the AutoHotKey trick.
edit: Crap, was that not in this thread...

Ok, I'll check his profile out tonight. I still have your post bookmarked at home so I could post that later. I have all your setup done I think but your profile just didn't have GW2 in it, it had other games you've played. That's what I meant by if you tried reloading your profile, it would be simpler to just go grab your profile again.
 
Again I'll ask, were more traits added? Were they touched at all? They went on about having to redo them and add more.. wondering if they pulled through with that.
 
Off for a bit to get dinner taken care of, sorry if I missed anyone on the invites. Jira should be on, and more officers should be getting home shortly.

If you can't roll on Gates of Madness thanks to the obvious clusterfuck we all knew was coming, it sounds like Henge of Denravi is going to be your best bet.

There is no need to create a second GAF guild as guilds are cross-server. Just ask an officer for an invite, regardless of where you're at.
 
I still don't understand the overflow server stuff though...again me and a friend made a character on the same server,same class so we start in the same area,once we are in the game we group up and it shows that we are in a party together but we can't see each other...we tried teleporting to the same waypoint to try and sure enough I can't see him...so this meanS the overflow left us grouped together but we are in different servers? how can you play with a friend if that's the case...?

We played Rift together and SWtOR all the way through and we can't do it in this?...I dont get it.
