I just checked the name I want in the online HOM thing and the HOM doesn't even recognize them so I don't think they have it reserved for GW2.

SI has a good mix between PVE and WvW. Plus it seems right in the middle regarding population.
Seems like a good sign to me!

I just checked and I'm pretty sure they're just having some server issues currently, my GW1 character name loaded up just fine before but is currently not.

Oh this is something different. You're right it's down now, but it was working earlier when I checked. It doesn't for sure mean whoever has that name isn't playing GW2, but my odds just went way up.
Also does anyone know how to get your HOM stuff? Did I miss that somewhere?
Don't see an LCD option in mumble configuration. I have advanced options ticked as well but then again my TS3 applet doesn't seem to work either.

They put an article up on it just yesterday. When you create a character you'll get a special item that allows you to

Yeah, I thought they were supposed to release drivers to fix the GW2 issues specifically in time for the headstart?

Nvidia's really slacking.
When I was on the other side, it seemed the goold ol' green boys were always pushing driver updates, beating AMD/ATI to the punch but somehow, someway, now that I'm a proud owner of a GTX670 (it's a great card) they don't keep coming the driver updates and even have annoying issues that take time to fix (Vsync in mind).
And how long has it been since their forums are down? Like 2 months or so? tskkk...
Was really hoping they'd have something for us, considering they're promoting GW2...

Mine has not even shipped so I have no idea what they are sending mine as. I got the CE, but of course I will be travelling for work this week so I have to get my wife to open the box and give me the code. I wont be back until Friday and I do not know how long I have to put in the REAL code.

Not very. There are super rare items and legendaries (especially with crafting) but those are mostly going to be for super spiffy cosmetic appeal.

You're using GamePanel Software right? It's the king of Logitech software.

I'm so so close to playing this game, but I've got a few questions I hope can be answered.
1) As of now I'm mainly interested in the Ranger and Engineer class. What would be the suggested races to play these classes?
2) How is this game not like traditional MMOs? Are there dungeons (instances)? Are there tools in the game to assist players find other players for dungeons? Are there areas where it's not really populated by other players?
3) Does anyone know how they make money since there's no monthly fee?
4) How well supported was GW1 since there is no monthly fee?
5) What would you say are the two worst aspects of the game?
Thanks in advanced!

just curious but have any of you attached some sort of back story to your GW2 characters with your GW1 reserved names?
Oh there is. The big difference here is the stats on loot don't keep increasing over and over. Instead you're looking for new awesome skins. Single Legendary Weapons will take hundreds of hours to acquire one of four parts to craft it.
Logitech gaming software 8.35, I'm missing something aren't I?

There is tons of loot, but all loot maxes out at levle 80, so you wont be able to get anything more powerful then anyone else, but you sure can get something that looks really cool and very few people have.

If you shipped Amazon Prime or day/date release they should be shipping any time now. I would bet they ship USPS shipping for you as well. Slow as hell.
So does the pre-release/beta code only last for the duration of the 3-day early start and then come Tues we need to put in another retail code?

I can answer some question. I am sure others will be able to fill in more.
1. Really race does not matter much so you could pick any that you want. Races get a special skill but from what I have read it really does not make or break a class.
3. They make money by have an in-game store that sells mini pets and other things that are not going to give people any real advantage. It is not like you can buy better amor or weapons with real money it is basically to change your looks. They also sell extra storage space and character slots.
4. GW1 was supported real well for something that had no monthly fee. For GW1 the main way of making money was they released expansions and in the end had a store to buy character slots and unlock skills for PvP.
5. For me the worst aspect are that this is must first "real" MMO so the cities are much more complex and I find myself struggling to navigate around but that is something that will change with time because I can learn more about the locations.
Really? I didn't know that. I hope Arenanet realises loot keeps a lot of people playing.

1. No racial advantages, play what you want.
2. Did you not read the OT at all? Yes there's dungeons, yes look in the contacts list. No one can really answer that.
3. Box sales, Gem shop, expansion sales. The store in GW1 has made them a lot more money than people think it has, enough to start development of GW2. Their website sales have been enough to pay for the development of GW2 and it's not even out yet.
4. Very well supported. They pumped out entire new campaigns in 6 months along with free content updates with a very small team over 2 years. To this day, GW1 has got a patch every single month since release (7 years). Today their team is 8x larger than it was in 07 and they're splitting their 280+ team down the middle, one for live content and one for expansions.
5. Servers aren't up and I'm not playing.
Yeah but so does having fun and there is a tonne of loot it's just not an increase in power. It's the way Guild Wars 1 worked. You work hard and get gear that looks a lot better but isn't actually more powerful. There are many loot games out there, this isn't really one of them. You keep going because there's lots to do and see and experience. WvW is never going to get dull, neither is sPVP. Zones have over 100 dynamic events and it's going to take a while to see the full extent of those. Same with explorable mode dungeons. ArenaNet hopefully will be fairly diligent with their updates and they will be monitoring the community closely to see if they're getting bored or not.

1) Mechanically, no suggested race. Everything is as good as everything else.
2) Requires registration to view, but honestly gives the best rundown of how it is not like traditional MMOs.
3) After initial sales, microtransactions and expansions.
4) Very well. Continual expansions, free extra content, and new events and themed quests every holiday.
5) Will have to think about this. I'm on the kool-aide.

This was my biggest gripe with the first game. The rewards never felt great enough, just minimally helpful. But there seems to be enough going on in GW2 to keep me interested.
Yep.
Do you have a link to this?
