Guild Wars 2

Hah Far, yeah probably.

And Krist, that is the guesting system, which has some limitations. Not really major limitations but...I just cba with that. I want to play the game without crap.

You can visit any server anywher. You just can't join guilds on them, or help them in WvW.
From what I know you can do anything else while there.

It's probably the least restricted server-based system utilized for an MMO around. As Muz said, choosing a server is mainly about choosing who you represent in PvP, you could easily spend the vast majority of your time playing on an RP server, whilst doing PvP with other friends in a guild on another server.

But there aren't realms labled PVP or PVE or what not. They are all the same.

All PvP is in "the mists". So in structured PvP or the World v World v World battlegrounds. No one will come and kill you out in the world.

Btw, if anyone is intrested in getting in contact with me add CorprealFale.3102 on the contacts list. And we'll find out if that one is saved between events.

Edit: Oh, and they changed it so that you toggle walk, intead of push to walk. unless that had been spotted already.
And a tip would be that in movement keys, hotkey "about face". Very handy.

Oh fuck I gotta buy this game ....

And the "look behind you" button?

Sylvari have a mushroom haircut, that's just genius.

I created a guild, Hideout of Defias for DBers who want to have some way to keep in touch. I added my contact addie... earlier in the thread. Can poke me through that if you want in (or PM me over the forum and we'll work something out).

True, this guild won't exist outside of Beta, but then we'll just make a new one.

Asura movement animation is just <3 The males creep me out though, more than gnomes or goblins ever have.

Kind of bummed they deleted old characters, at a loss on what to do now. Holding back for release sucks.

This game is so different, will take some time for me to get used to it.

Could someone also test the following:

Can classes for heavy armor wear medium and light armor too? And the other way around of course. This'd be nice to have more gear options for RP, but I'm not quite sure if it's possible.

It's not possible. At least not from what I see.

No idea with the gearchange stones.

Hmm :/ thanks

Still, there is townclothes. etc.

Come on 2% download complete!

Funbari.8423 is mah id thingy

Aye, not too fussed on the male Asura so far but they've really nailed the females. Asura animations are indeed excellent and I'm loving the starting zone too.

As mentioned, there's a walk toggle now which you can bind to something handy.

The game's looking pretty polished for release in 5 weeks!

Nice

Dear god, just reading on the GW2 Beta Forums is painfull. People are such retards.

"GW2 has 2007 graphics."
"The game is boring!"
"It's too easy."
"I hate the weapon skills."

Bring out the meme's.

Spoiler:

I'm really enjoying myself. People should grow the fuck up and comprehend just how polished this game is, -five weeks- prior to release.
Moreover, it's just a game. They should play something else, if it isn't satisfactory. Right?

Oh, oh. The Grammar Nazi in me found it quite the challenge to not report the numerous typos I discovered.

I'm enjoying the game myself! I find it very entertaining and fun! There's new things to discover around every corner.

..wat?

Speaking that, as a warrior anyway i am LOVING the weapon switch system.

Getting to jump straight into pvp is fun and honestly the questing system so far is as good as it was hyped up to be.

Movement still feels weird and found it very hard to keep track of everything on the new UI but hoping that's just something I'll get used to from playing more.

Though I don't like the way the quests make the same mistake with WoW with making me the big HERO straight away with Captain of the guard being like "Watch out we got a badass over here" at only level like 3.

Really enjoyed myself this weekend.

Find myself, against all of my better judgement, liking the Asura.

Found out that Guardian is amazingly fun.

As for the movement, I really like it. I find it far more fluid and real than WoW where it's just Go - Stop, with nothing really in between. Takes some getting usedto however.

Still haven't tried PvP. Did some really little WvW, but realied to really enjoy it you should be in a group of atleast 5 friends organized with voice com.

Agree on the story. You become "the hero" to quickly. MMO story tellers need to learn that you should only be "a hero", never "The Hero". But that might go away. And is mostly the human side, since it seem's it's far different what you get in the Asuran zone.

The politics between different Charr Legions is awesome.

Also, the feeling you get when you sit on skype with a friend. Kill a centaur and point out.
"There's a cave over there! Let's check it out!"
You head in, first almost watch an NPC jump to her death, but not jumping. Then exploring it and finding a quite huge cave, that took a small jumping puzzles to get too, with a tough boss that almost kills you at the end (both of us were downed once during the fight).
That feeling is satisfying since nothing pointed us there besides the "Wait, there's a cave!"

On the neg, the human starting zone really needs more water areas early. At level 10+ you really want more than your first skill on a weapon, and I've yet to find any good water to getting the 2-3 first skills before that.

//Edit: Any people who'd be up for RPing sometime tonight before the servers close? To try out the waters as it is.

I'm like this, movement and dodging is something I need to get used to, being a bit off on that part, otherwise it's quite fun, although some quests can be ridicoulously simple and not very entertaining.
And I find it a massive let down that most quests upon completed gives NOTHING, it's like a message saying you're done, there's not actual story to it, like someone to talk to etc. I thought it'd be alot of that, but nope. :/

Fara, there are actually quite a few NPCs around. And most with a "name" has some short conversation to give you.
