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

Finally got that email. My inbox says it got it around noon, which is a total lie. Yahoo has issues sometimes

Well the gameplay was nothing special, I was hoping for some live gameplay of a new event or something.

It seemed like a recap of what other vids have covered on WvW.

Imagine some random Kate who Likes an amazing dildo producing company, then her best friend, Kate #2 visits her profile and thinks "Hmmm, that's neat ! I must have it !", she likes it and goes to the shop buying the product made by that company. It's just to get new potential customers. And no, I do not have facebook or any other social crap. I do not have problem with keeping up with my friends, neither do I have 5200 friends, where only 5 I have met in real life.

If we didn't get the e-mail does that mean we are in?

[QUOTE=benaq;35114365]If we didn't get the e-mail does that mean we are in?[/QUOTE] It means your spam filter ate it, you're not signed up, or your email is bugging out. It does not mean you're in.

Most likely means the complete opposite mr. optimistic.

[QUOTE=Miskav;35115631]It means your spam filter ate it, you're not signed up, or your email is bugging out. It does not mean you're in.[/QUOTE] I got the confirmation e-mail way back, and just tested and got it re-sent and checked my spam folders. It's gmail btw. Why didn't I get the e-mail? Also, it would make sense for people who did not get the e-mail to be accepted. It seems that the majority received the e-mail and it comes off as a polite rejection letter.

I'm going to buy on day one. Also, I checked myself on the GWrewards thingy, and for some reason I'm level 48/50.

Preorder details! [url]http://massively.joystiq.com/2012/03/13/guild-wars-2-pre-purchase-details-announced/[/url] Oh lord am I hyped now: [quote]From April 10th onward, pre-purchasers of any of the editions (Collector's, Digital Deluxe, or Standard) will be guaranteed access into beta weekend events and a three-day head start for launch.[/quote]

Will only be able to get the Digital Deluxe version though. Collector's Edition seems expensive, but worth it I guess.

Fucking YES. Most certainly gonna get the Digital Deluxe.

Physical pre-order is 150$. Huh. Time to start saving money I suppose.

OMFG YES YES YES YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [editline]13th March 2012[/editline] HOLY SHIT [IMG]https://d2p3tu22c584ot.cloudfront.net/img/prepurchase/collectors-items.2552773223.jpg[/IMG] [editline]13th March 2012[/editline] MINE MINE MINE

Also Minimum system requirements: Windows® XP Service Pack 2 or better Intel® Core™ 2 Duo 2.0 GHz, Core i3, AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 or better NVIDIA® GeForce® 7800, ATI Radeon™ X1800, Intel HD 3000 or better (256MB of video RAM and shader model 3.0 or better) 25 GB available HDD space Broadband Internet connection Keyboard and mouse Think it's one of the few games I'd consider buying a collector's edition for. Even playing WoW since release I didn't bother with any of them.

Was looking through the tooltips on the Digital Deluxe.. $20 extra for a summon, a pet and the 3 limited use items seems a bit much.. the golem banker only lasts 5 days and the chalice + tome are 1 time use..

Still, I need to buy a mini rytlock key when people start selling them. I hope they aren't linked to the collectors edition key.

The digital deluxe gives basically nothing I'm interested in over the normal one. The physical one has all sorts of goodies I'd love to get my hands on as a long time GW fan, but it's 2.5x the price of the normal edition, and knowing Americans and their ability to fuck up prices in euro I'll end up paying 150€ for it. That's basically what I have left if I save half a year's worth of left over money. Holy shit.

Ugh, was hoping they wouldn't go for the $60 price tag other PC titles have done, but I guess that's more NCSoft's doing than Arenanet. I'll just go for standard, never been one for elaborate bonuses.

Lame! [editline]13th March 2012[/editline] [quote]Access to all Guild Wars 2 Beta Weekend Events[/quote] Also I just thought about it. If the CBT starts the end of this month and pre-order starts April, they must be having more beta events in April (and you don't get access to the beta event in March if your pre-purchase for that bonus). Unless you are lucky enough to get picked for it.

i wonder how much the digital deluxe edition will cost if its 70$ i guess that means around 45-50£ then

[QUOTE=k0dex;35120138]i wonder how much the digital deluxe edition will cost if its 70$ i guess that means around 45-50£ then[/QUOTE] Considering Standard is $60, I suppose it will be at least $80.

[QUOTE=k0dex;35120138]i wonder how much the digital deluxe edition will cost[/QUOTE] $79.99 in the US according to massively, so I'd imagine £50-£60 in the UK. Can't seem to see where you can check the prices for anything other than the Collectors Edition. Also Collectors seems to be £130 in the UK, a bit of a rip off compared to the US price.

Collector's is looking good, though I could have lived without the figurine for a lower price. I really only want the book and art. I think I will go for Deluxe if it's not a lot more expensive than standard.

Fuck that, A-net gave in to NCSoft and it's moneygrubbing BS, just normal edition it is for me, not paying 200$ for a game.

It's not just a game.
