Anybody notice the Large Scary looking Army of Death at the end?
Note the 2 classes. Shadow Knight and Necromancer

Also on the next concept art, It looks like a Large Shadow Knight and a Paladin/Elementalist team are bout to go toe to toe


THAT SHADOW KNIGHT IS DUAL WIELDING!!!!

Also the Ranger at the end appear to have Light Melee.

Oh &&&& that Assassin is Dual Wielding Swords !!!!!!!
Oh ^^^^ that Shadow Knight is teaming up with a Elementalist and Mesmer looking class!!!!!:cry::laugh: Dam I am so playing a Shadow Knight or Paladin,,,,, They look so Bad***!!

Tight*** Summoning at the end there btw. That class looks looks like its ready to kick some serious booty

There is also a charr with a gun in there.. and it appears there will be some sort of golem type class like a Warlock only you build golems instead of summoning demons to fight by your side.

Day/night cycle

Jumping (swimming is probably in there as well with the underwater area)

Great stuff.. way more than I could have hoped for in a first trailer.

The design blows Aion out of the water, much more detail and interesting level design. Can't wait!

Finally someone that picked up on the issues that I thought were of the most importance! :)

Jumping, swimming (possibly underwater!).  These are features that GW lacked, and I'm VERY glad they'll be in GW2. 

I just have 1 more hope for this game.....

Higher level cap with a MUCH broader range of gear power.  That was the biggest turn-off for me about GW.  I could not find fun in getting new loot, because the only thing different about it was the TINY increase in stats or damage.  I like this to be handles more traditionally.  I love how WoW approachs it.  Gear dependancy is paramount.

What Needalife214 said---

Plus we dont want High Requirements for it, because that once again adds limitations to the game. And we remember how the sparks of all the limitations in the first game trigered

 

So less limits FTW

I totally agree with you. There was a lot of eye candy in this first trailer. I too am looking forward to the technological aspects of the game. We still have a long wait, but I think it will be worth it!

Only thing I ask is don't  comparare GW2 to Aion.  Aion is more inline with traditional MMO's, while GW has always been it's own game. I don't want Aion's FB flooding this forum with ridiculous posts. :)

Really sweet stuff. The in-game footage looked really good and the story was... promising. I just pray that it's got a higher quality than the storylines in GW1 as I found all of them, except possibly EotN, to be plain boring.

Well, ArenaNet hired some top fantasy writers for Nightfall, and I personally saw a marked improvement in the story from Factions to Nightfall and EOTN. I have to imagine that will continue.

No trespassing! Beware the Psychotog

Well first up,some of the parts in the movie looked laughable,they used 2d cutouts and just stuck them in there like a IDK,how to compare it,sort of like a cartoon.

Anyhoot,i have no idea why they ruined a good looking movie with those 2d cutouts but oh well.It was like some guy holding the werewolf and moving it with his hand and yelling ROWR..lol.The rest of movie was nice animation and scripted work,maybe the main guy got sick for a week and some schmuck took over for the cheap parts lol.

The game world actually looks real good,i approve.They have not improved tech wise,but it is along the same lines as FFXI for creating a good look with low tech.I can see the effort was put into the world,i like what i saw.If you read one of my last posts,even before i saw this video,i had a gut feeling,this may be their best effort to date,and it clearly looks like it.

The one thing i noticed ,that i really wish they would change for once,is they still use that "goth" look,everything spikes,i mean EVERYTHING,even armour that starts out smooth ends up spikey/pointy.I even saw textures in the world that were all spikey lol,man a different approach for looks please and i would be totally happy with what i saw.

BTW ,the first 20 secs or so,i thought i was watching a recreation of SIN from FFX,but it was soon dismayed for a dragon :D.

Part of the trailer is a tribute to the concept artists (imo the best in the business). I liked it. It certainly was a change from the normal CGI that you see from most other games.

no...no nononononoNONONONONO!  Keep that WoW "mah gearz pwns urz" shit out of the game.  That's one of the things that was GOOD about Guild Wars.  It was skill over time played.  No ass-hat who had elite design armor had any advantage over a guy with basic max armor.  In fact, the guy with FoW armor was most likely to get beat down in PvP.

Personally, I just hope I can still make a Mesmer.

Great BUT

the graphics are only slightly better. seriously go compare screenshots. stop being delusional as usual just because its a trailer.

First of all it does look much better. Just because the style is similiar doesn't mean that graphics themselves can't be of a higher quality, which they are... I think you're confusing the two. Plus most important is the level design which as you can see is more open and more explorable. That will be the biggest improvement, along with being able to jump and swim ect. The Guild Wars graphics of the oringal are still better than most MMOs out there so giving it the improvements that it clearly has, will put it back on top.

Two Asrua thumbs up!

Man Aion is just a toy for NCSOFT to satisfy those rabid fanboys that would love an alternative game to WOW.  But GW2 will be a goliath when it comes out.

 

Huge Fanbase

Arenanet has had over 5 years to perfect this game because essentially

it is a Gw1 part 2 and they have taken all the players feedback to possibly

make it one of the best MMO's   Ever!

Looking at SWTOR and GW2 I would rather not pay a monthly fee and GW2 is looking

very promising, if this doesn't spell doom for WOW I would be very surprised.

It does look the same. Just look at the scene with the low angle and the flowers. The same look as GW1. Also the waterfall scene looks the same. It is the same engine, but enhanced.

On the other hand, they had their time to work on multiplayer performance. That performance was great in GW1, but needs to be able to deal with more people in GW2.

I dont care that it looks just like GW1, but fix all the missing parts in it. Things like match mechanism for HA, auction house, Personal rank for each PVP style. Enable PVE players to join PVP with ease. Keep the ideas of interruts and mesmers. Reduce the number of skills, but give enough freedom so builds like the thumper will be invented.

Still lacks RPG lvling and Character development, which are the basic elements of any RPG game. WoW has that. Which is why more people play it over GW. GW2 seem to continues to lack in Character Development and lvling which is what WoW players want.

Oddly enough the emblem reminds me of Bioware's Dragon Age Online.

Nice Artwork, worth a download.  Thx.

The guy about me mentioned it being a Goliath.  Well it shoud be.  Remember the first year of Guild Wars where they gave away $100,000 a month to the winning guild.  I am quite sure that alot of people are interested in that.  Lol!

What is it with the WoW comparing 24/7 ?   If i want to play WoW i'll subscribe to WoW thank you very much.

  I like the GW world, skill bar  ( you have to actually be able to think instead of being able to button bash),the instancing . Yes indeed i like that . No boss camping and when he finally shows some a - hole  a few levels higher who doesn't like to team goes in, kills the boss and you have to camp...again.

  So in a nut shell, I  want to play GuildWars. So please let it be Guildwars like and not a  f***ing WoW clone (AoC anyone ?) . 

And stop the childish comparing.

Don't shoot the messenger.....it will ruin you monitor
