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

i have a feeling that on friday we will be able to get on earlier than the 3 hours.

2 gems says people will be able to start logging in around 8 pacific time lol
 
Yesss! Tomorrow's stress test will be my final chance to determine whether to buy GW2 or resub The Secret World! <3 arenanet
 
I finally got a chance to test my new G600 today now that I have access to my PC again. It's my first MMO mouse so it feels a little strange using it. Not bad, just a little different than what I'm used to. But the more I use it, the more comfortable I get with the shape and the layout of all the different buttons. I can already tell that it's going to be very useful once I get used to the layout and have all my profiles set up the way I want them. I'm still playing with the software, but I'm pretty impressed so far with the amount of customization it allows you. I can't wait to test it out during the ~15 minutes or so of stress test that I'll be able to play tomorrow. Oh ArenaNet, why do you always schedule these tests when I have to work? =(

But on the bright side, there's only 4 more days until the game launches!
 
I'm jealous of the G600. I have the Naga and love it but if you don't 'claw' then 7-12 don't go used all that much. I usually had them for potions and stuff in WoW, stuff that wasn't detrimental but helped having close by. I like the concave-ness of the G600, I think that would work perfect for knowing your button placement, wouldn't be as easy to mis-strike a key and such.

But with my G13 and Naga powers combined, I basically just have to think commands!
 
Which system do you think is better, having to capture elites, or what he have in GW2?

They are both good, but capturing only works in GW1 and the way they do it in GW2 works for GW2.

In GW2 there are only 3 elites per profession so you would only cap 3 times then it would be over.]


PS.

Secret Officer meeting on Mumble. They are deciding who to kick of the guild first because there are too many. They are going to start with the theorycrafters and sPVP lovers.
 
I'm so excited to play with GAF again. The last time I played with GAF was the Lord of the Rings online launch and the only fond memory I have is Amirox power leveling to max cap
 
Phantasms will no longer be replaced by new illusions if there is a Clone that can be replaced instead
All illusions should now shatter properly

NOW TAKE THE SHATTERS OFF OF PATHFINDING AND ITS FIXED >|
 
So, one thing I still never got:

When PMing people for a guild invite, is it by account name, or character name on the server?

Pretty sure both work, but we'll be posting our character names at launch. We only ask that you include your GAF name with the whisper so we can verify who is who.

For sure, for sure. Thanks!

I had trouble getting to you guys at the last weekend beta, so I was just curious.
 
I don't think I'll be buying anything until I get a maxed character. I'm considering transmutation stone though. I like styling my characters.

If you're not getting anything until you get a maxed character it might be worth nothing that transmutation stones are going to be buyable with skill points and exp post-cap will grant you more skill points a'la GW1.
 
Is HOM account wide? For instance, will I get the rewards on every character I create? Or only the very first one?

And, does the character have to have the exact same name as my GW1 character I got the rewards with?

We know you'll make the right choice.

Retro, stop hosting meet n greets on fridays! That's my game night with my friends!
 
The reddit mentality of cutting a face off of something and pasting it on everything, then spamming the images is not funny. Just had to say. There is no intrinsic comedic value in repetition.
That internet trope has been around before Reddit was even a glimmer in Alexis Ohanian's eye.
 
Is there a chance that the new Nvidia drivers will be released today? Was hoping for the Nvidia enabled GW2 optimized drivers. I wanted to see how much better Kepler and Fermi cards would run the game!


It's getting really close. Uncomfortably close.;D
