Argh. I knew this would happen.

Sister texts me asking to come over on Saturday in the morning to watch her kids because she has to work at 7am. Watching her kinds can take anywhere between a couple hours to all day, depending on how much of a lazy POS her husband decides to be.

 

[Hawkian]

Gotta create a new char so soon before launch =\ wonder if they will let us keep them...doubt it but would be cool

Have to guess no way.

 

[Audioboxer]

Did someone say another stress test?! Time to try out the Ranger.

I know but how awesome would it be? =\

 

[Vinci]

I actually like all the races. Don't see why they get the hate they do. Perhaps they're not overtly sexualized enough.

If you're just joining us and find Jira's OT a bit much to parse:

First: Holy Crap Gamescom Trailer. (720p or you're a terrible person)

Next: Seriously All These Things Get You XP in Guild Wars 2

Then:
Little Things that Make Guild Wars 2 Awesome

Also Fucking Bullet Casings Make Different Fucking Sounds on Different Surfaces

Plus Pigeons Come and Carry Your Mail. Anywhere.

not hatin'... just being difficult

i did quite like some of the earlier asura art where they looked like the mutant offspring of evil rats and grey aliens, however.

Another stress test?!

We will be conducting a Stress Test TODAY from 1:00 PM PDT to 2:00 PM PDT.

We will be actively working on the game during the event, so you might experience connectivity problems or discover features that are not working as designed.

Any issues you experience are a result of the rigorous conditions of the stress test, and are in no way representative of the state of the game at launch.

By participating in this stress test, you’re helping us make Guild Wars 2 a better game.

Please note:

* The Stress Test is open to anyone who has pre-PURCHASED Guild Wars 2.
* You will not be able to purchase gems.

Thanks for your cooperation—we’ll see you in-game!

~RB
