Once I prepurchased the digital copy of game from the Arenanet webpage I received an email saying they would email me a download link. Does anyone know when this will happen and does that mean I will be invited to the beta event the weekend of 4-27. AMD Phenum II x4 3.6Ghz 975 black edition |

Well if its the full 13+ Gig we have to download they better get their skates on, it would take me 2 days to download that on my crap connection. |

Yep, they should be mailing out links by Wednesday, to give people enough time to download the platform. See you in game. "Loading screens" are not "instances". |

They are just sending those emails to people who had signed up for beta, its no biggie, they are just making sure they remind people again you know. |

What I am curious about is this 'head start' comment.. Does this mean that these characters we create for the BWE will be already lvl ? when we start the real game? Otherwise why would it be called a 'head start' vs. a sneak peak.. true beta..
They usually always wipe prior to that, but the name is saved. |

Originally posted by whitewolf Pre-orders arent the same as pre-purchase. Pre-puchase means you bought the whole game. The Deep Web is sca-ry. |

Originally posted by rich9995 "Head Start" refers to the three day head start period that people who pre-purchase, (one day for simple pre-orders), will get before the game releases. It has nothing to do with beta and beta characters will not carry over into the retail game. Want to know more about GW2 and why there is so much buzz?

Originally posted by nomss He may not mean 48 full hours, since not everyone is willing to leave their computers on that long just for a download. And I know some things will at least allow you to pause and resume, even after a shutdown.
And heck, I used to play World of Warcraft on a crap Dial-Up connection, the only caveat was I needed a friend to get the newest patches on a disk for me to install, since it would take forever to DL. The original Guild Wars actually seemed tailor-made for Dial-up too, patches always came quick and never had an issue with the connection. |

Originally posted by whitewolf If it was a full pre-purchase with the serial number, yes. Once they get the accounts/logins active you should be good. |
