Sounds damn good. So in simple it's like having instances but with no instances.

GW1 was an mmo as much as diablo 2 was, it was not. Just because it had a 3d lobby and coop does not make it an mmo.

it's massive, it's multiplayer, and it's online.
seriously, the only qualification of an "mmo" is something that supports hundreds of players in the same place at once, which gw1 does.
Is Guild Wars an MMORPG?
[quote]Guild Wars has some similarities to existing MMORPGs, but it also has some key differences. Like existing MMOs, Guild Wars is played entirely online in a secure hosted environment. Thousands of players inhabit the same virtual world. Players can meet new friends in gathering places like towns and outposts where they form parties and go questing with them. Unlike many MMOs, when players form a party and embark upon a quest in Guild Wars, they get their own private copy of the area where the quest takes place. This design eliminates some of the frustrating gameplay elements commonly associated with MMOs, such as spawn camping, loot stealing, and standing in a queue in order to complete a quest.
Guild Wars takes place in a large virtual world made up of many different zones, and players can walk from one end of the world to the other. In Guild Wars much of the tedium of traveling through the world has been eliminated. Players can instantly return to any safe area (town or outpost) that they have previously visited just by clicking on it in the world overview map.
Rather than labeling Guild Wars an MMORPG, we prefer to call it a CORPG (Competitive Online Role-Playing Game). Guild Wars was designed from the ground up to create the best possible competitive role-playing experience. Success in Guild Wars is always the result of player skill, not time spent playing or the size of one's guild. As characters progress, they acquire a diverse set of skills and items, enabling them to use new strategies in combat. Players can do battle in open arenas or compete in guild-vs-guild warfare or the international tournament. Engaging in combat is always the player's choice, however; there is no player-killing in cooperative areas of the world.
Players in Guild Wars can play with or against players from around the world in the global tournaments and arenas. And while players are initially placed in a region based on their selected language (so that there is a greater likelihood that others will be speaking their language) they can join up in the always-available International District to form parties and to play with anyone from anywhere in the world.[/quote]
A 3d lobby =/= mmo
Jesus fuck, I can't wait for this game. The suspense is killing me.
I like smart developers.
This has been my most anticipated game ever since 2007.

Will several hundred players in a single battle be massive enough for you?

WoW is one of the most popular video games, ever. More normal people play it than for lack of better a word, "Hardcore gamers", I have several co-workers and friends who play it and have wives, girlfriends, boyfriends, children, ect.
This game pretty much was an Instant buy the minute they announced it for me but with the recent updates about it i can do nothing more than jizz in my pants over what they say but then cry over the fact it isn't installed on my pc and ready to play yet.
