Originally posted by Yamota Well,ArenaNet sorted out the problem,it was a pain but not really a major issue.Don't get me wrong,if you paid for the head start then you really did have a right to complain.Now, it's all okay and runing like a gem,small problem that was sorted asap. Not the smothest of head starts but sorted and all is fine. Move on and enjoy. I was lucky enough to get into the full beta having atteneded GamesCom three years running.Going on what i know ill give the game an 9/10,no game is perfect,even an 8.5 would be fare. Very enjoyable game which can only get better. I will play gw2 and vanguard which i have invested 5.5 years in,heck GW2 has no monthly sub so it really is not a problem. |

from what i've seen on streams and the beta it's probably a 6/10. pretty generic ganeplay, nothing special. Dated stylized cartoon graphics. I wonder where the hype even came from. |

Originally posted by Eir_S played two betas, saw some streams. Don't like the PvE. PvP might be fun though, but this is not enough for a solid foundation. |

6.5-7/10
It wasn't particularly gripping or fun, but I can see why people enjoy it. Just not for me. |

I'm assuming that you also gave WoW a 1 out of 10 when it launched with so many server issues, loot lag and all kinds of other stuff. I've actually been playing GW2 since noon with no problems. I don't see what your issue is. If anything, it's one of the smoothest launches I've ever been in. Maybe you should log back in and give it another go and remember.....it's not even launch day yet.

Uhhh... It has an 8.81 Don't really think that's the direction in which you wanted it's score to change but oh well. But seriously, if people are disappointed they have themselves to blame. Some people should look up this thing called "the gamer matrix". Kinda shows what's happened to most people that are extremely disappointed with the game. |

Most people are disappointed? How did you come up with that. This game has been an absolute blast. My only complaint is that their are too many people but I'm sure it will even out as people start spreading out in level.

The camera is still crap..but otherwise a solid game.
I have to be honest with you. We have completely blown up the design of EverQuest Next. For the last year and a half we have been working on something we are not ready to show. Why did we blow up the design? The design was evolutionary. It was EverQuest III. It was something that was slightly better than what had come before it. It was slightly better.What we are building is something that we will be very proud to call EverQuest. It will be the largest sandbox-style MMO ever designed.--Smed |

7.5/10
+massive scale +jeremy soule returns +art direction +engaging combat -technically the graphics engine is very poor. Runs worse than Crysis and hardly has any features that GW1 engine didn't have 7 years ago, except for more glow and blur (yay!). Locked FoV and no 1st person get in the way of gameplay for me. -Cookie cutter gameplay systems. Everything fits into strict game design molds. Makes questing very deja vu. -Critically, the feeling of striking off into unknown land and finding hidden sanctuaries (rare skill trainers, hidden elites, vast visually rich areas which are unmarred by Vista markers) has been killed by lack of death penalties and a more crowded, safe world design. The "Guild Wars" emotion of discovery just doesn't trigger in this game for me. |

I'm generally pretty critical when it comes to GW2 and i spend a good 15 hours playing today, only having a break for food twice and 2-3 hours of the servers being down. ( started at 6 my time, think the servers went down about 3 hours around.. 1 pm? really don't remember, then kept playing til 2 AM minus my meal breaks. )
I had near to no lag issues all launch apart from my casting animation lagging behind three times or so, got disconnected twice but got right back in, so as far as I'm concerned this is one of the smoothest MMO launches I've ever been part of.
I still don't think guild wars 2 is the next big thing, but even though i don't think It's much different from your average MMO, Its definitely more enjoyable then your average MMO.. It might partially be because you're constantly around crowds. I do absolutely hate the doging mechanic though, while It's fun to use only beign able to dodge twice sucks, I really feel like I'm always short on energy >.<
Seeing as i got so hooked on it on day one, and i haven't been in ages by anything, I'd have to rate GW2 a 8/10, a 7 just feels to low for it, but 9 or 10 is simply exceptional in my book.. But GW is just great, It's not completely new, but refreshes the experience enough to make it enjoyable again. |

9.5/10. Anyone that can rate this 6/10 please produce for me a mmorpg with a rating higher than 3.5/10, because this game is quite obviously better than most if not all MMORPGs in existence, by a wide (at least 2.5 point) margin

Originally posted by Yamota I have to ask: Why do you buy themepark games? You know they aren't your cup of tea yet with every game that has come out the last few years you spend months before release saying how bad the design is and then afterwards complain that it's the same old thing. Clearly themepark MMOs are not for you. There are sandbox titles available along with some others coming out soon. Why do you waste time and money on games that you know you won't like? I'm not trying to be rude, I'm just curious. NGE killed SWG. Get over it like the rest of us did in 2005. |

Although I respect everyone's right to be a little upset that the servers were down for a few hours. In a moment of rationality, consider that the amount of time it was down was LESS than the time it takes many games for their regular weekly/bi-weekly maintenance..... Frustrating when the game is new and you really, really want to play. But in the grand scheme of things....not all that big of a deal.
