Because... you want to play PvE, not PvP?
I want that PvE has an effect on PvP. Right now PvE is completly senseless.

Do you really think GW2 will APPEAR any different? |

| Probably not, thats why I don't play MMOs anymore. WoW destroyed the whole genre. Now everyone is only making casual-mmos that you can play with your left foot. |

It would seem that your idea of "casual" is a little off what everybody else thinks. |

You can either approach GW2 with an open mind or you can approach it with an elitist attitude. I assure you that if you approach it with the latter then you will manage to find many faults in the game. |

What is not casual for you ? You really want MMO's where youre wasting 1000hours of your time grinding items and equipment ? That was WoW and the reason why i didnt play it. Guild Wars 2 seem to take a more mature and realistic approach to it. Its more about the FUN. There is no grind here, its better quest system and more dynamic enviroment than we have ever seen in a game. Also the combat is semi twitch based, so you can move away from ranged shots and be active on the combat field. Its doing the genre 100x better. |

and btw, stop replying to that guy, it's obvious he's just here to badmouth since he doesn't like modern MMO's.

Hey guys, I'll be there for the first beta weekend but I have to leave after that and go to Israel where I will not have my own rig or internet connection. It is possible for me to find something to play GW2 with but I highly doubt it, so count on me missing events for a month.
I hope to see you all during the first beta weekend!Last edit: 2012-04-23 03:33:18 |

8/50! Wohoo! Progress! ... Yea, I know it's not all that amazing, but it feels good to see the numbers going up. 
Finished Prophecies and Eye of The North. Got my Imperial Phoenix and Animal Companion statues. Got all the Elite Skills i wanted for me and my Necro Heroes. Got Summon Spirits (seriously op!) Now I'm going through the Factions and Nightfall missons again, picking up hard mode masters and a few of the normal-mode masters that I missed.
I'm not sure if it's the most efficient way to do it or not (probably not), but I've been farming faction points (both Luxon and Kurzick) through PvP competitive missions; Fort Aspenwood mostly. It feels like you get the faction points really fast this way, but on the other hand, it's not really helping me progress through other areas of the game. I really needed a break from just questing and farming mobs though, it was starting to get a bit tiresome. Especially Prophecies. My word. Some of those quests were extremely tedious to say the least.
I'm enjoying the Competitive PvP Missions, although I haven't tried arena PvP yet.Last edit: 2012-04-23 21:28:46 |

Yeah, I also got SC2 and only played multiplayer. Playing campaign doesn't give me any better units in multiplayer so meh, what's the point of making it fair, I'd rather get a superthor for finishing the campaign on brutal with all achievements to pwn on ladder against those that didn't do it, LOLOLOL |

Ok, so I decided to get the game on release, to have the experience of a brand new game, save myself from spoils, xD. So, have you guys started the beta? Is the game what we expected? |

I believe that all the beta testers until now are still under NDA. This weekend's beta weekend is the first one that testers are allowed to go out and show off everything about the game. |

I can't decide if I shall get TERA or Guild Wars 2. I know this is the thread for Guild Wars 2 and all but any tips?  |

Err, buy both?
I do not know much about TERA though but imo there aren't many publishers I can name that I hold in higher regard than Anet, your 60 bucks will not be wasted.
Look and compare the games, ask yourself which seems like the game you'd have most fun in and buy it.
FB I read that NDA is off now, you can talk about GW2 as much as you'd like and I googled this random site that confirms it http://countingdownto.com/countdown/37040
EDIT2: http://www.guildwars2guru.com/forum/when-nda-lifted-t32731.html So I was wrong, Embargo is lifted, press can talk about beta but player testers are still under NDA.Last edit: 2012-04-25 16:56:47 |

At this very moment I have downloaded 85% of the game client. It's 12GB for anyone that's wondering.
By the way I noticed my login email was still a @plaync email address. Anyone know how I can convert that into my usual @gmail.com? I'm guessing just contact customer support. |

| Is the beta client under account and game clients ? If so, mine is unavailable and the forums do not work for me, I can log in but none of the links or searches do anything. Last edit: 2012-04-25 16:43:23 |

Yeah, Kodash has a nice ring to it and we might as well play the beta on it, see what happens.
