There is no release date yet. So why rush just to get the game when it becomes available for pre-purchase on April 10?
Beta access?
[QUOTE=RawrBullet;35414063]Beta access?[/QUOTE] P much
For me it's also that I know I have money now, but I don't know whether I would have money available when it gets released.
beta beta beta
I must be a day 2 buyer. 11th of april is the first day I can physically buy it, unless I can do it online aswell. :o
I'm assuming you will be able to directly buy from the GW2 site, which is what I'm planning on doing. It gives ArenaNet a bigger piece of the pie.

Thus the reason they have the grayed out "Buy Now" on the other two, but no grayed out "Buy Now" button on the CE. ArenaNet will not be allowing orders of physical copies from there website, is what I hear.
[QUOTE=Newbienice99;35416122]but then you won't get an adorable box to display[/QUOTE] I'm sure they'll send one, since i'm getting the CE. I don't even know what stores in my area will sell it? :( Anyone else in the netherlands? Eplaza? Freerecordshop? Dixons? ??
Waiting for a trial to test my laptop's running capabilities, much likely buy it afterwards.

Yay i have a few gamemania's near my school :D Never used Bol.com. Thanks for this valuable intel!
[QUOTE=Rong;35413915]There is no release date yet. So why rush just to get the game when it becomes available for pre-purchase on April 10?[/QUOTE] For me it's something to look forward to, having it done and not have to worry about money, just a nice feeling knowing you've already bought the game.
So I played some Old republic today. Can't enjoy it as much after watching videos of guild wars. [editline]3rd April 2012[/editline] On that note I was just about to go to bed until I saw this [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMCDGDCKeEk&list=UUy1Ms_5qBTawC-k7PVjHXKQ&index=2&feature=plpp_video[/media] Looks like I'll be needing a red bull tomorrow, must watch!

You have to get it through one of those other retailers they list on some page somewhere.
I'm thinking hard whether to pre-order the collector's edition or not... Eh, I'll sleep on it.

Not sure if I want to risk that..
Tried asking my local EBgames/Gamestop retailers about the pre-purchase box, even after explaining what it was they didn't seem to know about it. Guess I'll have to wait for launch day. Oh well.

[QUOTE=MoarFunz;35416403]Waiting for a trial to test my laptop's running capabilities, much likely buy it afterwards.[/QUOTE] Same here too, sooner or later gonna have to upgrade. ANet did say that if you can run GW1 you can run GW2, and GW1 doesn't require much.
I just pre-purchased the CE from [url=http://www.bol.com/nl/p/games/guild-wars-2-pre-purchase-collector-s-edition/1004004012219842/index.html]bol.com[/url]. Whoah, they only sell a total of 250.
The one at GameMania has already been sold out? Wtf :( I might even concidering prepurchasing on bol.com this afternoon then, jesus they ran out fast!
I pre-purchased it at bol.com too, gamemania is sold out...
Holy shit, if you prepurchase on Bol.com you won't receive anything until 30.06.2012. "Levertijd: Nog niet verschenen - reserveer een exemplaar Beschikbaar op 30.06.2012" "Time to deliver: Unknown, prepurchase a game to be available at 30.06.2012" Disappointed! Does this mean I can't get anything except for beta access until June? I wanted my statue right away :(

How many CE's exist? Is there a limited number of them?
