Run around and get shot a few times. I'm sure hardcore gamers could go all strategy-whore on it, but it was far from entertaining.

Im not sure how it separates it. Are the servers separate from each other or did they dump everyone into one?

afaik I was the first person in my hunger royale game to use the exploit to turn human again. The ArenaNet employee I did it in front of refused to give me gems for it, though :(

It sounds like a lot of fun if it would've been done better. I'm glad I pre-ordered the CE. The first BWE I played I was kinda sceptical about it, but the more I played it, the more I liked it. My only issue so far is the 'level gap'. For example, I was a level 16 sylvari, I've fully explored The Grove and Caledon Forest, but the next story quest was for level 19, and all the other quests in the area were level 17/18. I had the same issue on the previous BWE when I played Norn. Other than that though, I really love the game so far.

I wish the Sylvari towns clothes wasn't just a leaf bikini, I would have prefered an actual dress of some sort.

Now to find something to pass the time until release.

The withdrawal begins :suicide:

I am happy I did not get far into the game at all and managed to get a bug fixed in divinity's reach My withdrawal will be small to not there at all :v:

Best part of the beta for me: Getting to the end of a mildly difficult jump puzzle with a friend, and then betting on people that were trying to complete it. It was so hilarious trying to figure out who would make it or not, shouting at the people you bet against. Even if you lost a bet, it was still entertaining to watch people fall to their demise. End result: I lost one bet, he lost 5. I left with a pouch 5 silver heavier.

play as a strength warrior, kill everything underneath you when you fall off a jump puzzle.

Aw man I forgot to take ingame pics of my characters, ah well... there's still this. [t]http://filesmelt.com/dl/characters1.jpg[/t] Goodbye Fluffy the thief and OhgodIforgotyournamealready the necromancer. Great beta.

I'm surprised it doesn't use PNG.

I'm not even looking at the camera :v:

did they remove the hd screenshot option from the menu? i only saw normal and stereoscopic when i was exploring around the options.
