    Ele really fun but annoying since you have to level up 20 abilities every time you get a new weapon type. Overall though it was my main for the event and I may play it at launch. Next I am going to try the warrior/guardian/necro. Range classes are just OP in general right now since in PvE everything destroys melee.

    I'm worried that I might have to use a weapon that I don't want to use for whatever reason there is (boring? repetitive?) but I have to because its either OP (which I doubt will be the case) or its essential for PvE or PvP (which may be more likely).

    I love the Mesmer, the Playstyle is new and unique to me, I love playing with two One-handed Swords or with a Scepter and a Torch, but for some reason I don't like the Greatsword and Staff, so I hope I won't be too limited by avoiding these two weapons.

    Maybe its too early to worry about stuff like that, but this my only concern for now.

    I could see turret engineer's being crucial in WvWvW since they could set up a defensive perimeter outside a keep.

    Also had no problems with lag or fps lag or anything. But not gonna take part of the stress test. Just gonna be the same of beta start anyway. Just keep pressing the connect button. Plus there are plenty of people trying. For the rest of you guys, have fun!

    As much as I want that to happen at the same time I want this game to be released perfect so if there has to be more BWE or even Beta Weeks than so be it.

    For the next BWE, should I just play with my planned class for release (human ele) or continue to try out all the classes? Because at first I didn't want to "ruin" the experience for when the game actually gets released but now I'm thinking **** that I'm going to play what I want.

    Hmm...seems like the reason people dont play mesmer isnt that they are the hardest but rather more underpowered...wow only 2k damage..that too when critting? (compared to thief's 20k damage)...thats pretty messed up.

    Why is it that the assassin classes are always the most OP ones lol

    i feel they gave the mesmer less DPS cause they have the illusions so help with damage and mitigate damage. if u use the sword u also have a counter move. i mean almost every mesmer attack puts a condition on the foe and or boon on players.

    As I thought, I dont like the game at all, it just doesnt feel good.
    Doesnt have that mmorpg feeling that I love, combat is too easy, spam skills when they are not on cd, swap weapon, spam skills, swap weapon, etc.
    I almost bought the game before I checked the beta but luckily it was giving me an error.

    RIP Xfire

    You have your typical crafting, a list of things you can already craft which increases in number when you level up that craft.
    I was playing my engi so i decided to pick huntsman, I made a basic pistol.

    Soon after I i noticed there were dowel pins i could craft which had symbols on them,I was able to make 3 different ones. One with a heart, a sword, and a shield. Vitality, Power, Toughness. So i made a pistol frame and barrel like before but rather then using a already preset item from the list and using it, I went to the discover tab, threw the items in there along with the desired dowel pin.

    3/4 slots were taken up but i was able to create a pistol with the stat I wanted, I guess you can put another item for a bonus but I didnt have any atm. It takes time to figure it out but its pretty cool.

    Yeh, you can practicaly discover new items by combining things. Although I haven't done much research in crafting though.

    The final event of the BWE was fun, but we didn't get to complete it because Rytlock was an idiot and couldn't make up his mind where to walk lol.

    For those who couldn't attend, crystals kept spawning all over the Plains of Ashford, and we had to fight back a corruption. Eventually a lvl80 Branded Devourer spawned and I suppose Rytlock was supposed to walk there and kill it because the rest of us were doing 0 damage to it haha.

    People don't like it, since it's not another holy trinity mmo pumped out in the masses like they're use to so they have to learn new stuff and tactics, nuff said

    but honestly dont try to compare it to any game with the holy trinity
    might as well compare this game to Planet side one it atleast has stuff close to it like 1 vs 1 vs 1 world pvp

    Say wut dude ? ... When did Guild Wars Ever had end game raiding ? People who will play guildwars2 will already know what to expect from the game ... Btw it had awesome and really hard dungeons where you actually have to think in guildwars ... Plus the game has many titles , explorations ... Many events showing here and there ... and its WAST PVP ... no one expect same RAIDING content like WoW or what not ... because its already boooring and its not NEW and no one expect to bring people from other games ... because GuildWars as it is has already many many fans ... because until even today 1st Guildwars had many players...

    Check your facts man.
    Yes, and Guild Wars ended up having a very niche playerbase. Which is exactly what GW2 will have. Guild Wars 1 never had an amazing population. I know my facts, thank you. You're saying raiding in WoW isn't new and it's boring, what does GW2 offer that is new exactly? People ended up staying with GW1 because of it had moderately enjoyable PvP. It's population is fractions of what it used to be. PvP can NOT carry a game for long.

    k? And the game was advertised countless times as not having super endgame dungeons with epic lewts and lewt tiers for harder endgame dungeons with even more lewt for even more endgame dungeons. You seem to think it's suppose to have them for some reason.

    And of course, throw out the "play the game before you talk!" defense. A phrase that means absolutely nothing.

    And notice I quoted you saying "lack of PvE content" as means for opinions and facts, nothing to do with endgame stuff. Maybe you should read more before you go into a blind fury to "win" at an argument that doesn't exist?

    yeah i ordered mine from gamestop and like i said my receipt said 3 days head start and when i called them the guy told me you play for the early access then on the 28th when it comes out you go pick it up and thats when you put your serial code in. i am assuming they will send out emails a day or so before the early access like they did before the betas letting you know your are in.
    A Guild Wars 2 Pre-Purchase involves buying the game in advance—that is, making full payment either through our website or through one of our authorized retailers. Those who pre-purchase Guild Wars 2 earn special benefits, including guaranteed access to our Beta Weekend Events, admittance to the game three days before release during the Headstart Access period, and the Hero's Band, a fantastic in-game item that provides a boost to your character in everything from power to critical damage. Those who pre-purchase the game will receive a Guild Wars 2 Pre-Purchase serial code from the seller. This code provides access to all the privileges listed above. The Guild Wars 2 Pre-Purchase is offered for the Digital, Digital Deluxe, and Collector's Editions of the game.
    thats from the the guild wars site and thats exactly what i got on my receipt from gamestop so as far as i know i am in the 3 days early access.
