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

I knew they did because I have the charr plushie. [sub][sub]Oh god I'm pitiful[/sub][/sub]

New WvW blog post [URL]http://www.arena.net/blog/jordan-massey-on-the-role-of-the-squad-in-wvw[/URL] [quote]Joining a squad is just as easy as sending a whisper or a party invite. Simply select a teammate and right-click their portrait. If they’re in a squad, you’ll see an option to join their squad. Click that and you’re in! The commander doesn’t have to approve your request—you can join and leave freely[/quote] Hmm, this is good, I can't think of any way for people to troll besides chat spam, and there's an ignore button right?

I am starting to get worried about the CE stuff. I know that, as an american based company, the US will probably have the most available, but Gamestop really fucked up by selling them so much earlier than they were supposed to. I'll be so unhappy if I don't get my adorable Rytlock statue :( Though I suppose I could spend the $100 I save on in game goods.

If you think about it then that $100 could get about 8 more character slots, extra strage space, many gems and still have enough to get anything you feel the need to get. The art book will probably pop to online or many of the images in there we will have seen in the last 5 years of waiting. What I'm wondering Is if the elite skill provided in the digital dulexe Is limited to only being obtained in there or if its learnt later on.

I called my nearby gamestop, and they said that they were doing the prepurchases. Heading there tomorrow, to see if they actually know what they are talking about.

i was looking at the items for delux edition and the tome of influence, unlocking guild vaults. i wonder what the guild vaults will hold because not much point buying storage if i could just have a guild specifically for storing my stuff like many people do in WoW.

[quote]Is my copy of Guild Wars 2 tied to my region? Yes. To play from North America you must purchase a North American copy of the game. To play from Europe you must purchase a European copy of the game. Note that this restriction impacts where you can play from, not which game worlds you can choose to play on. By purchasing the correct copy of the game, you're supporting the game in your country, and you'll be connecting to your local data center, using your local customer support team, and downloading the correct language support for your country. ~RB2 [/quote] Hmmm... not sure what to think.

I think it means you can play with your ameri/eurobros, just that you have to be at america/europe to play?

It means you have to play from where you bought it, which I don't get. So you can't install it on a laptop in America, then go on holiday to the UK and play it? Errr

Apparently. It sort of makes sense to me but it's 0418 AM so it might be that as well...

They also said this later [quote]Here are some answers and clarifications for you! First, if you purchase the game from [url]https://buy.guildwars2.com/[/url] you'll automatically be sorted into the right region. And don't worry -- we want you to play with your friends wherever you are. This policy only affects where you can login from -- not which worlds you can access. People from NA will be able to play with people from EU at launch. We've got two datacenters -- one in NA and one in EU. Those who do not fall into either of those two regions will default to the NA datacenter. Finally, we are aware that a lot of our players travel, and we are looking into a solution for you. Hope that helps some! ~RB2[/quote]

Still don't get why they'd do something like that though

probably connection to the datacenters

So if I preorder at the (FUCKING) Gamestop website, do they mail me the codes asap or...

If you prepurchase online from Gamestop I assume they mail you the prepurchase box with whatever shipping options you choose.

So that basically means that VPNing my way to a fair price is a no-go great

Wow that's a faggot move on their part. They seem hell-bent on making EU pay more by destroying every other possible option. Goddamnit I don't have that much money, I saved up enough to buy it from NA but I also have taxes to pay, health insurance to pay and a driver's license to save up for.

Why are people crying over this? There are ways to get around it on Steam, sure but the point still stands. The game doesn't have a monthly fee but people are never pleased anyway.

I still haven't gotten over Valve doing it I haven't bought a full priced game on Steam since [editline]6th April 2012[/editline] It's just REALLY REALLY ignorant and retarded

Shit i better find my NCsoft account out, haven't used it in ages, be a bitch to get to the 10th and i can't buy it due to forgetting my account details considering i imagine the websites gonna be swamped.

so umh, i suppose there's a beta weekend coming up? when should i be able to download the game?

[QUOTE=Kentz;35452678]so umh, i suppose there's a beta weekend coming up? when should i be able to download the game?[/QUOTE] I think you can download it on the 10th, otherwise like a day before the 20th, which is the sceduled beta weekend.

Yea, idk why shops are stupid enough to sell copies before the 10th of April. Maybe it's a trap? Anyway I'm waiting untill the 10th. (Also, FreeRecordShop has them too, I asked an employee. I just hope it won't be sold out when I reach the shop at 5pm.)

[QUOTE=UnMute;35452876]I think you can download it on the 10th, otherwise like a day before the 20th, which is the sceduled beta weekend.[/QUOTE] Scheduled? Have they already announced the date for the second beta event?

[QUOTE=UnMute;35452876]I think you can download it on the 10th, otherwise like a day before the 20th, which is the sceduled beta weekend.[/QUOTE] Are you sure it starts on the 20th? I'm not home that weekend and it would really suck if I didn't get a chance to play

Oh god, I have to help my dad with a photoshoot on the weekend of the April beta. He says he might move it, eveybody pray for me.

I wanna know are they going to include the insta leveling npcs in public beta weekends.

[QUOTE=MrGreed;35453033]Are you sure it starts on the 20th? I'm not home that weekend and it would really suck if I didn't get a chance to play[/QUOTE] I think I read something about it yesterday. Can't remember/find where though. Some retailers apparently have the date on their preorder pages, but it could just as well be on the 27th I guess. If there was official word on it, it would be easier to find and confirm.
