In my defense, I never replied to the troll. I replied to the person who replied to the troll. XD

Seems like yesterday I had just recieved my invite to Guild Wars.  Steping into that world with Ooo's, and Aah's. Fast forward many years and here i am waiting to experience the drug know as Guild Wars 2.

Good to hear, but for the love of gaming don't softball the reviews like you did for SWTOR.  We deserve to know the truth, good or bad, about the game.

I agree with you here.  Though I may be an avid supporter of GW2 what the devs are trying to achieve. If something doesn't feel right about the game, then tell us MMORPG.com. If WvWvW turns into at 5 fps slideshow, with over 100 players on screen or the Dynamic Events become monotonous, then tell us.

^this...

it's all about W v W v W for me at this point... rest of the game appears to be in good standing; hopefully the devs won't pull off a SWTOR ability delay either!

 

If I'm correct, you can see 2 animation skills used at the same time in this video, resulting in a very useful (and fun) combo. I think I've never seen such a thing in other games and it seems they got a very robust combat system. But I'm no expert in this technical stuff so someone correct me if I'm wrong. ^^

Hey mmorpg

please please, be completely honest and dont be a coward when writing the impressions, I want to know whats wrong with this game and what is right

Congrats MMORPG.  Please do more than one article and try to cover more than one aspect of the game.  Don't try to cover all the starter areas, instead try to cover the content areas we haven't seen much of like dungeons and WvWvW.  Try to form a guild, do some cross profession combos, try to sidekick - a lot of the kind of stuff that can't really be shown in an hours worth of play - basically coordinated group stuff.

Currently I'm playing SWTOR and loving it but after playing it a while I have to say can you please check out GW2s UI and other basic functions !!!  Can we move pop up windows around to where we want?  Can we put friends on our friends list when they are offline?  Please check out the basic stuff we take for granted.  I had no idea how much I actually just expect this kind of stuff to work, now that it doesn't it continuously is niggling at me.

Lastly, I'd like to know how much each of you who gets into press beta would be willing to pay to buy the game using your own money - don't grade it with some arbitrary system - give us your honest wallet decision.

Since Anet are using a their own modified guild wars 1 engine.  I'm 100% positive you will be able to modify the UI.

Your correct,there are no ability delays in GW 2, actually  it's funny because I tried to test it at pax last year could buff and immediately use anothe one and could attaxk immediately.

The animations are used to were they aren't stiff and do not clip awkawrdly when executing abilities.

They've already said the UI wont be as customizable as GW1, but yeah it would be nice if somebody would mess around with it to see where the limits are.

Woo-hooo!  Calendered.

Can't wait.

who here checked their emails hoping that ANET made a mistake of sending you a beta code? 

< guilty!

^_^

Congrats on making the cut and getting into the weekend beta.  Many of us are waiting breathlessly for your honest report on how the game looks, feels and plays.

 Congrats on beta access. I have to agree that I hope we get a healthy dose of non sugar coated info. Some of us need to have a little air let out of the balloon before we try to ride it to the moon. Most importantly, have fun.

I hope the WvWvW system delivers.....Hard to get too excited anymore, with the releases of the last 4.5 years...

 

Seems like this would be the hardest to thoroughly test. And maybe the most ambitious. Having pve, DE's and pvp objectives all happening with 3 factions(servers) is a bold idea.

Everyone seems to be concerned about getting the straight goods, the honest info, the non-sugarcoated version.  I want that too, but yet I'm still ok with getting a bit of zealous glee as well. There are definately some things that can't be attributed to responible journalism that I still want to hear.

I would like to read "The WvWvW was so engaging I didn't even realize that I had bit off part of my tongue!"  or  "by day three I had forced myself to quit eating so I didn't have to take as many breaks"  or  "people will be able to use this game to get over their heroin addictions"

So yeah, my practical side wants a clear and honest write up, but deep down I want a sugar coated ball of anticipation stuck deep in my gut so that I can't hardly stop thinking about how excited I am for the game to release.
