Could i possibly get a key please?

The PvP does offer rewards though so what your saying I don't believe is completely based on fact. There are many bonuses one can earn for the guild they are currently claiming rewards for. More detail about these rewards can be found on http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Main_Page. I understand that perhaps there isn't huge armor rewards and what not, but I think Anet did this on purpose. They didn't want PvP to be one giant grind like it has become in many other MMO's, where you only PvP because you want X item or Y perk. You shouldn't have to have a carrot in front of you, you should PvP because you enjoy it. Also by doing this those individuals who do not enjoy PvP don't feel pressured to do so in order to get an achievement or item etc. etc. I realize that many people may have a problem breaking from the carrot mold, but I personally believe this is a step in the right direction.

[b]I believe that GW2 is lacking the three features that keep players coming back for years, namely:
 
1) Everyone should be on the same server, so players have the chance to become real famous legends amongst other players.
Why? GW2 has been talking about actually making it so that one can be proud of their server, and have a type of large standing community you don't have in other games. Sure you could have one massive server, but then you wouldn't have co-op you would when your entire server is trying their best to win against two others. This type of server coordination has been seen in ages, which is perhaps why you don't see this as a strength when it is. Plus Anet has already said that if you so wished to switch server's it isn't going to be some major hassle or cost real money.seems to me that you are speaking about a feature that may already have some basis in the game that we have not been informed of yet.

2) Everyone should be able to build structures in-game. This makes the place feel like a home, and gives you something tangible to build, defend, and attack.
You already get your own personal instanced section of a city. Who's to say that you can't customize this part?
3) PvP should be of central importance - As clever human beings, we eventually learn all about a game's AI, but there is nothing quite like a human opponent - we can be brilliant, stupid, and unpredictable.
There is PvP all over the game, how could you really say that they have not been targeting it. If they make it of "central importance" aka ignore the rest of the game then they would be losing out on tons of players enjoying other aspects of their game. They have already made special leaps and bounds to make this game enjoyable from a PvE aspect, as well as rewarding players for exploring and other activities that are not combat related. This in my mind makes the game much stronger, because it isn't so one dimensioned. If they created what you are speaking of the game is a one trick pony, and if I hate the trick then i'm not going to like the game. But by being multidimensional, having strong PvE content, they make game that much stronger and make it so people will want to stay longer.

I believe that the (marketing) hype is too strong. GW2 will turn out to be another SWTOR - initially impressive, but lacking once the theme-park rides have been done.
 Games will always have problems living up to being over hyped, but in my opinion GW2 has not said anything to garner hype that they have actually shown through the closed beta and through gaming conventions. SWTOR on the other hand, I think garnered to much hype as being something revolutionary whereas the only thing new perhaps was the voice over system, which if you don't like it then its just another MMO with light sabers :S

no offense, but I personally think that if it wasn't for all of the star ways fan boys, Guild Wars 2 should have deff been most anticipated imo without any competition.
