Any clue when the release date will be? I know a while back they said it depends on the beta testing. Have they announced or hinted as to when it will be?

Friend of mine bought it Wednesday and still got in for this beta weekend, so its possible.


ETA: Darkhaven, Sea of Sorrows, and Anvil rock are already full. Sorrows furnace is popping up constant disconnects

GW2 says sold out, but I see it's on Bestbuy too...I mean WTH it's only 80 for the middle one, and I can easily do that, but I'm still on SWTOR, I was hoping to unsub when I Buy....is the Beta only a weekend or is it ongoing?

sorry to be late to the party

Yeah they wiped, so we don't have to be attached to Furnace.

Anyone else in anywhere?

No. Not until after beta. They shut it down, purchases that is.

well then I guess I won't be on then

hows the game? tough getting used to, too easy, cartoony, class imbalance, tree imbalance.

feel free to answer after beta.

They wiped and gave me no world selection. I'm on Anvil Rock until further notice.

Hit 'o' to open commerce panel. Go down to "Buy Gems"

First option is beta gem pack, it's free, as it says. You will have to put in credit card info. no worries, I did it for the last beta, no charge. Get 2000 gems.

Log out, Log in. Hit "World Selection" in bottom left corner of char select screen. Then transfer. Eredon is ok. A few hiccups but not bad.

It's not. It's quite awesome. SG is more of a planetside person, no worries.

Don't let one person's opinion ruin it, the forums are actually quite excited. Most people love it. And really, the only ones who really don't just don't understand betas, disconnection issues, and bugs. This isn't the game, this is testing.
