Does anybody know if invites are still being sent out for beta weekend, or are they all done?

But I have no way of knowing if they got the invite yesterday or monday and decided that today was a good day to mention it! PMs acceptable.

6:04 A.M. CST was when one person got it. Or so I heard.

**Aristio** · 2012-03-22 03:35

Guess there was a leak in AreaNet's piping.

Spoiler: show

^ First real post in four pages, thanks. (if not fake, which a second look is noticing a lot of client rips in those images.. so it may be)

You can all go back to discussing the pro/cons of microtransactions and trying to troll with beta access now.

I'm raging so much right now. (Not really but if I is.)

*Goes off and buys multiple gems for an undetermined amount*
*Buys 100 slot bags*
*Buys 10 character slots*
*Buys NYSE Broker* (He teleports to where you are and tells you the economy is doing fine)
*Buys several top hats*
*Buys several monocles*
*Buys 1000 different assortments of boosts and keys and dyes and kits and kilts*
*Buys Colin Johanson Boost of Boostedness* (Only one per character)
*Buys a dozen resurrection orbs*
*Buys assortment of 1920's 1930's 1940's 1950's 1960's 1970's outfits*
*Buys one Victoria Secret outfit*

Me: Anything else I want?

Arenanet: Well we just brought out the brand spanking new Buy-Colin-A-New-Car. Want in on that? It's pretty neat.

Me: What does it do?

Arenanet: Nothing in game, just gives him more cash.

Me: *Thinks*

Me: Ok put me up for 3. What is the grand total?

Arenanet: 100 billion dollars *Places pinky on lips*

Me: OK let's do this!

You're so bitter lol.

I'm totally fine with everything in the store. Seems like a good mix of consumables and more permanent stuff (mini's, storage, char slots, costumes). I like it.

That legit? link thatis?

**Celeras** · 2012-03-22 05:32

If you really wanted the client I would get it from something other than a random mediafire link, it's not exactly hard to find. And there's very little in the way of "datmining" to be done with the way it's set up. Everything is streamed into one 15gb .dat file.

Love your posts here lol.

It's kinda sad the naysayers on Guru don't realize how this system is a good thing.

Yea, it works.

**GoggleHead** · 2012-03-22 09:11

What is this shit? Didn't they say cash shop stuff wouldn't give in-game advantages? Some of that stuff sure looks advantageous to me.

**Gokulo** · 2012-03-22 09:14

How? Nothing is too bad as far as I can see. Pretty usual and tame stuff.

**Eanae** · 2012-03-22 09:14

Edit: Oops.

**Eanae** · 2012-03-22 09:15

Edit: fuuuu

in game advantage as in my gamefarmed sword being inferior to your 10 dollar one

**Eanae** · 2012-03-22 09:22

Inferior looks most likely. We have no idea what any of this stuff does. We don't even known if the boosts straight give karma/etc or boost rate gained. Panties need to stop getting bunched so soon.

Edit: finally got images to load. Boosts over time isn't really that bad.
