Guild Wars 2: Pre-Release Discussion

The Sylvari dance could not be more ridiculous.

So I went back into gamestop after they told me "Within 3 days it will be sent to your power up rewards". Waited 3 days cause I was working and w.e gave them the benefit of the doubt ( I knew it was supossed to be on the receipt). So as I go in today they tell me they have the SKU for the code, but can only give it to me on sat. I told them it's just for the headstart and I would like to get it now since I work all day sat, which I am then told "We can't do it because it will be like a 6 day headstart". Kinda upset they fired everyone at gamestop who knew how to do their job and got a bunch of people who don't know anything now. Got a refund and went to preorder directly from GW2 site, which turned out to be just as problematic. Site was slammed and I got a bunch of errors which resulted in my entire bank accounts amount be put on hold cause of failed purchases . So now I have to wait for that to clear up before I can do anything.

[Tagus]

um... 6 day headstart is impossible because the servers aren't up? Dem guys are idiots.

Also, this stress test my PC is running the game far better than any beta so far for some reason... and it's fucking fun as shit. Game looks like crap but it's so much fun. Of course, I'm just running around killing low level shit, but my fears are put to rest.

[Takiwaki]

They cant give you now cus it will be like a 6 day headstart? ahahahah...

female sylvari dance is hilarious. reminds me of a pool entertainer. you know, those guys in the hotels trying to get the guests off their feet.

[Imitarate]

This is pretty hilarious, every time I use Savage Leap on my warrior it causes every mob to disappear off my screen and I take falling damage, it's really quite amusing.

One of the dances.. (The Norn? Whatever it is..) is the Carlton Dance, lmao.

Also.. think Imight break down, buy it tonight and start the long ass download.

[Ohemgee]

Really enjoying the elementalist class the most.

Elementalist -> Ranger -> Engineer is probably my character creation focus

Happening with rangers greatsword Swoop ability too.

Test extended for an hour have fun!

Apparently the new sPvP map was included this test, Raid on the Capricorn; the pirate ship one with underwater combat. One of the capture points is actually underwater, and if you control it sharks attack the opposing team. There are also cannons on the ship that can reach the land capture points.

I didn't play it, this is all word of mouth, so if somebody played it feel free to correct me.

[Flarega]

Missed the test

[tol]

Yeah, the new sPvP map was in. It was pretty fun, sharks will attack the team that ISNT controlling the underwater ruins which can make it very easy to solo defend for a smart player and conversely, very difficult to take from someone. Overall, It was fun & the map looked gorgeous. Underwater PVP, for me, is very very disorienting I'm going to need a while to get used to it.

[Akiyama]

Aaaand made the plunge on the pre-purchase. 200k files to gooo~ ._.

[Corrderio]

Got to admit, I'm not a real fan of the dances.

Wish I didn't fall asleep halfway through the stress test. Still can't find my niche on Warrior yet.

Axe/Warhorn and Rifle, Shouts and/or Banners is the way I played it. Had a good time for the first time ever on a warrior-archetype.

I had a random urge to try out Engineer and ended up completely falling in love with it, wasn't even on my list of "possible professions" lol.

My body is ready I know the server discussion has been sorted but I havn't seen much input from the EU Community yet I know it doesn't matter but myself and other friends do not want to be on an NA server, any EU BG gatherings?

[Akiyama]

Aaaand patched/ready to go.

I'd be interested in this too, right now the couple of friends I have playing are heading to Pikey Square so that's where I'll be. We should make a BG guild (theyre cross server right?) for the EU in any case.
