I did and I like it. It's definitely different. I didn't play enough to decide for sure what I want to play at release yet. From the little I played ranger with 2 swords is the strongest of any classes I played, engineer was fun (this is probably what I will go with), thief was fun but I got tired of it fairly quickly, elementalist is another class I really liked, guardian is like a tank/healer combo class, and PVP was really fun and I don't normally play PVP.

Good to hear.
I tried ranger over the last two betas weekends and I don't get all the fuss. Love my guardian. Enjoyed Elementalist quite a bit.
I still don't like the 5 character slot limitation though, because I think I would eventually one of every class.

Bump to brag that I hit 30 points in HOM.
But on topic, what server are we making the guild on when the game is finally released. Curious if your decision has changed over the past beta

This game seems to be getting lost in the "interest" category, when does it release since I am not in beta?

I still think Sorrow's Furnace, but I'm up to a vote. Eredon Terrace, where we are, is bad in terms of WvWvW. We could try to go to a better one. Here are the rankings:

For a few reasons:
They're still holding back in terms of info. No one has seen Sylvari or Asuran lands.
They don't have a release date, still.
The betas are quick and dirty.
If you're able to glance the official forums people are excited and love the game. I just hope this whole release date thing doesn't bite them in the arse. Back in February I was saying a late June release. Well, yeah, that's not happening. Most estimates put this off in August.
Problem is, the game is smooth as silk now. It's FAR ahead of most MMO releases. I don't know what the hold up is. Supposedly there are still some major balance issues to work out, but I don't see it.

Release date is August 28th

Yeah saw that today. A little too long.
Next beta weekend is July 20-22.
I can't make it as of now. Nooooo!

Dammit! I'll be in Roatan, Honduras that weekend. Another missed beta for me. Looks like I may have to wait for the real thing on August 28th. Of course, I'll miss a day or two of the early access as I'll be at Cape Hatteras deep sea fishing on the 25th and 26th.

Awful trade off.
I'm not saying it's the best game ever, but it lives up to the hype, no worries.

I'm still not sure what I am going to play. I'm going to try warrior out a good bit in the next beta.

Every class really can do everything, some have more options (Warrior has more DPS options), but they still encompass all roles.
AND this switching from a Damage/Heal structure to a Damage/Control structure. It's more effective to dodge, control, avoid, rather than heal in most cases.
So again, depends on the style of damage/control that you want.

Well, there will probably be more beer drinking than fishing for me.
For some reason this is the game I've looked forward to the most for quite some time.
We need to get the TD server thing figured out.

I'm going to create a new guild thread tomorrow now that we have a release date and can actually start planning. My experience with the game at this point has been extensive. Muppet has been playing a bit as well.
Two things about servers:
1) They ONLY affect Guilds and WvWvW, that's it. You can actually guest on any server, any time. So we have to keep that in mind. I do want this to be a big, active guild that does both PvE and PvP of all forms.
But I also know people are tempted to play "right away" and won't wait for a server. Apparently, they will make server transfers in the first few months cheap, so we can set up on a server, let people do what they want, and they can transfer when things settle down. But again, I don't want to risk losing numbers.
2) My goal is to be on a mid-tier PvP server. Since server choice truly only effects PvP, if you want to PvP, you want to be competitive. Losing all the time won't be fun.
On the other hand, if you are on a heavy PvP server, the cap limits may stop you from playing.
With that said, I think Sorrow's Furnace is the best place right now. We can wait to see how things play out a bit (Maguuma is the other option IMO).
Currently, the guild is on Eredon Terrace, and I loathe PvP with them. Very little organization. Although, we did take the entire map yesterday during the stress test. Every single keep over the course of 2 hours or so. That WAS fun for awhile.

Sylvari and Asuran will be playable at the next event.
