Guild Wars 2 V2: GOTY 2017 or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Arenanet - Games

You know, the shiverpeaks make for the best server names. I wish there were a Snake Dance server in there.

Finally figured out why I couldn't log in to anything. If your password is too long than for w/e reason it won't work. [sp] Also, the client is done DL'ing for me. April 27th needs to get the fuck here sooner. [/sp]

[QUOTE=everyone]agreement to eu "Ring of fire"[/QUOTE] Thanks everyone, now we just gotta settle who the guild leader of FP EU is (assuming that the different regions means we gotta have different guilds).

So Ring of Fire it is?

It's a server.

So I think my Gmail is really slow. I got the invite in the middle of the night but it says I received it at 5:20PM while I was sitting there staring at my Gmail for hours waiting for one. Oh well I already downloaded the client anyways. So I was thinking...Since we all plan on playing on the same server (NA - Anvil), then maybe we should put together a list of the people who are actually going to support that decision to play on that server. I'm not sure if there is an NDA? If we get a list together of forum names by in-game names so that we can contact each other. Or maybe if we just have a single (or multiple) contacts for officers/GM's for the FP Guild. That way we can ask those people to invite us to the guild! Just a thought... EDIT: Shit, just found out my guild is playing on Kaineng! They made their decision before I was able to voice my opinion. That's what I get for not checking the forums xD

Lets just wait until we can play with the guild tools before ripping the guild apart ourselves?

I'm curious about the -image thing. What exactly does that do?

how big is it supposed to be? mine finished downloading and the file size is 13gb but shouldnt it be much bigger?

Yeah I'm interested too because my download speed is terrible

[QUOTE=Vaught;35710901]I'm curious about the -image thing. What exactly does that do?[/QUOTE] It automatically closes the application once download/patching it complete because the game automatically runs after it finishes and with the -image you don't have to worry about it running in the background or all through the night if that's how you're downloading the client. (long sentence is long sorry).

Worst case scenario, even if we have to split the guilds in half for our home server, we can still have huge gatherings by all guesting to either the US or EU server. We should do this for big events and holidays or whatever. Or if we all feel like exploring an area together. [QUOTE=k0dex;35710938]how big is it supposed to be? mine finished downloading and the file size is 13gb but shouldnt it be much bigger?[/QUOTE] It's only a beta, so we're only getting a handful of areas and such. I'm guessing the real thing will be around 30gb. That's just me though.

Yeah I really don't care for WvW too much, so might just join my guilds home server and guest with you guys whenever i'm bored/

So given that the bete events are starting this weekend, the release is probably mid June, early July?

Stupid download is just stuck at checking for updates. I set it up last night with the -image and it was stuck on connecting to Arena net. Turning off my anti-virus didn't help either. I left it up over night but all I see in the folder is the .exe and a temp file. I'm wondering if the files defaulted to the temp folder like someone else here said and are gone or if one of my buddies just closed it or something. Anyone have any insight? Just going to go about my business and check it periodically for now.

[QUOTE=CommanderPT;35710048]Well shit. I turned off the downloader to try the -image thing and after undoing it I can not resume my download because the game starts and takes me to the login screen. My download was far from done.[/QUOTE] Just re-enable image, then.

[QUOTE=Newbienice99;35710754]I doubt guilds will be region separated, it would split communities in half. Lets just wait until we can play with the guild tools before ripping the guild apart ourselves?[/QUOTE] Probably best. Also am i right in thinking that when the games release we won't have to download the full 25gb because we have ~10gb already?

the title screen music makes me happy

[QUOTE=Winner;35710929]You'll be able to move freely between worlds, but a guild can only WvWvW in their home world ("guested" players can't participate). So we'll probably have two guilds so each guild can WvWvW, but we can still be in the other guild so we're not separated by region. (90% sure that's how it'll work from what we know) That information is eaither outdated or that could be the size of the files uncompressed. Don't worry mang.[/QUOTE] I was assuming it was based on individual players, not guilds. So, a player would be able to WvW in his home server, regardless of what guild he is in. So everyone could be in one guild, and just WvW in their own separate home worlds. We will try 1 guild, and see if it all works out. If it doesnt, then we will split it, but we shouldnt plan to do that before we know everything. [editline]25th April 2012[/editline] Even in your case, i dont understand why we would need 2. Everyone be in one guild, and the eu players say "hey lets wvw", so they go and enter wvw mode on their home server. Has nothing to do with being in a guild? If they want to pve with people from na world, then they go guest mode in their world. And vice versa

Has anything been said that guilds cant be represented by people from different home worlds? I just dont want everybody planning to cut the guild apart when much of this is guessing [editline]25th April 2012[/editline] I dont see why a eu fp player in a single guild couldnt earn influence for the guild at the same time a na player earns influence on an entirely separate server

So... what's the US server? is the openepad thing right and we'll be on the same world as /vg/? God help me.

My download has suddenly changed from 150kb/s to 15kb/s :(

Trying the -image thing made my connection skyrocket by 500 kb/s. I'll be ready to rock on Friday. Hope to see everyone at Anvil Rock :v:

[QUOTE=Pie108;35711924]So... what's the US server? is the openepad thing right and we'll be on the same world as /vg/? God help me.[/QUOTE] /Vg/ ain't that bad, they're at least better than gametrailers, the yogcast and [i]reddit[/i].

[QUOTE=Guillebon;35712066]/Vg/ ain't that bad, they're at least better than gametrailers, the yogcast and [i]reddit[/i].[/QUOTE] Indeed. /vg/ is the tame version of /v/, which is saying a lot. Though I have the feeling /v/ will ooze its way into the same world as /vg/ and fuck everything up.

Moving to Riverside :v: No thanks for a NA server as homeworld, got my own guild here.

Was going to play on Yak's, but Yogscast? Nope.

Thinking of going to Vabbi, seems like it'll be mostly English-speaking.

Assertion: Unable to execute patch file" then it's the file path, any ideas on how to fix it? I can download like one percent then it just crashes.
