Has A-Net ever mentioned a permanent free trial period, such as a 10 day trial or F2P up to level 15, rather than the occasional trial weekends? I think it would be good for them to do something like that. I'd get a ton of my friends to try it out, but they're always a bit reluctant to drop 60 bucks on my word alone.
Thankfully I don't have any skins that I'm really after because my luck with those chests are abysmal at best non-existent.
His ID doesn't go in the invite box well at all... says the address is invalid. Have him message/mail someone that can invite instead. Ashodin Venteal, Retro, Gojira, Katoki, Wallach, and Hawkian are the ones I can remember off the top of my head.

Huh, I never got in on any of that. Gratz!
Weirdly I don't think I've ever noticed. You packin' reflection?
Mannn I wanna go home and play wat is this work crap
edit: Professor Retro, not just Retro. (or Eresia/Dhalion/Celene).
Some jerk snatched Retro from him.
Dunno what reflection even is, so probably not. Half the enemies I fight solo leash if I so much as take a step outside where they spawned. It's aggravating.
Sclerite is not a word you hear very often.

edit:
Supply Crates appear to have not totally awful drop tables for the new stuff:
Reflection just means anything that reflects projectiles. If you tell me your glass I'd gladly offer examples you might have. It helps with a lot of the Southsun mobs (just to kill them faster, not keep them from leashing though

The Mini is a blonde in a bikini. Weird.
after months and months of necro players insisting that neco downed health was bugged and lower that it should be, and months and months of anet denying that this was the case, players did anet's job for them and thoroughly tested it, proving that yes, necro health is indeed bugged. a fix has been promised, but who knows when that's coming. after 8.5 months of waiting for acknowledgement of the bug, i'm sure waiting a couple months or so for the fix is not a big deal...

I know that feel bro.
I don't know if these are new mobs or what, but reef drakes are Confusion mongers. You need to watch your stacks VERY closely and learn to not use big attacks when you have it. Condition cleansing and anything that summons something else to fight for you are great.
It's (she's...?) in the supply crates... they are random drops off mobs, plus gem storeriffic

I have also been following this. I can only assume they performed internal testing and assumed it was a non-issue. I can't explain why said testing wasn't made aware to the forums as it was an on-going concern/conversation. They are devs and don't necassarily need to share information so that could be it too.
good lord can't wait for that fix, i had no idea. maybe i won't be such a blight on pve groups.
i get downed way too much in the first place though
pooooosssibly
Indeed, we'll be getting the 28th preview page on the 21st.
No, it's very cool in reality. Apart from cosmetic value, they provide a place to congregate and share buffs before an event. Vanguard had trophies that provided buffs if you visited the guild hall. The best executed housing systems have gameplay value, such as providing crafting stations, bank/TP access, unique buffs, etc.
As for where they'll put housing, I have no idea. Yes, everyone has a home instance, but one of the biggest complaints with housing is that it isolates players from each other. The best way to handle it is to have players grouped up into neighborhoods together (LotRO did this). I had a cool idea for how it would work, I might post it later... but first... Karkaland.
Guild Wars 2 is good enough that we don't need to defend it. We're too busy playing to argue with people who have already made up their minds. It's their loss, right?
More and more I think we should have gone with "Guild Wars 2 |OT| The MMO (R)evolution begins"... Oh well, I can promise that definitely won't be the OT3 title.
We had weekly updates in GW for a while, but that was just skill balances and stuff.
So supply crates are just random drops? I've been semi-afk in one of the villages killing this large Karka thing every so often with no luck. People must be doing something right to pick up 50 of them so quickly.

Beat even my expectations (which was Friday; I expected this same day hype eventually, but some time to get the wheels moving).
So theoretically we all just experienced the last time we wouldn't have a preview of the next release (Retribution release to whenever the Secret of Southsun teaser went up). Ever.
I'm just attempting to conceptualize all of this despite the fact that I've sort of known about it explicitly for a while and thought a fuckton about it and how it might work, generally with a lot of accuracy in my predictions. I just don't know how they can possibly pull it off, even knowing it has been in development since launch.
And yet, both the release slider
And the main releases page:
I mean, it's done. This is just how the game is going to be now.

Depends what your definition of "end game" is.
Personally I didn't have any trouble finding stuff to do long-term outside of the story content additions. I'm still only at like 79% world completion and only have 2 80s. And I have over 1500 hours.
I imagine to the majority of the playerbase (read: people who will never, ever post on a forum about it) all of this might be a little overwhelming.

Lol our villain is going to be Traherne! Lols should be awesome.
I'm thinking it's Canach.
Also, I've been wondering, what is the Consortium an actual consortium of? A consortium is an alliance of multiple groups.
Also, I doubt Anet would show the villain they tease in the very same box. Running with the trend of most of these banners, that's probably a new character that will help us fight the actual villian.
nobheads and tossers.
Seems hit or miss. I've seen people say it's laggy yet I never experienced any lag when playing.
It's interesting to see NPCs making in-game references to the upcoming Dragon Bash. I don't think I've seen an NPC in an MMO reference something that hasn't happened yet like an event coming soon in the future.
i'm assuming it's so people can get AR without grinding for a capacitor or crafting a quiver

Bah Would use if I didn't already have the fractal capacitor.
I think I'll give them to my necro.
Yeah, this is exactly what everyone kind of expected them to say.

In other words, if you want new races and classes, ignore all the living stories! ;P

I had zero lag for my first 4-5 games, then got a laggy one. Not sure what it depends on. I'm also EU playing in an US server.
This is not to be confused with the 3 ability, which leaves you paralized for a couple of seconds after use, to balance it being basically a get out of jail card.
Pretty fun game, also an amazing way to make money for low level characters, as chests have at least one level 80 green independent of character level, plus 1-5 karka shells.
