They aren't allowing the people who played beta to post pics/videos, awesome. Public beta is almost here though so is not that bad. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9V6Ckj6- ... re=channelI guess there are some uploads after all. edit: they actually allowed recording so nvm, people just suck and haven't uploaded much.

If the game finally gets around to being released, how much would it probably cost? I remember seeing GW for 20$ a few years ago, but surely it wont cost 20$? More like 50$? Also is there a cash mall that affects pvp alot And is this a hardcore sort of game (or more like what GW1 a hardcore game)?

This game is a lot more hardcore, kinda easy to get into but harder to master. Price wise I expect the game to be 60 bucks.

What Love said, a solid 59,99$ at release I'd assume. Spent the whole day watching all the recorded footage, will make another youtube playlist for you guys soon enough. There's WvW, Ascalon Catacombs Dungeon clear, Guilds explained, gameplay from all professions, second Structured PvP map (Forest of Nifhelel) (First one being Battle of Khylo) and a bunch of other stuff.
P.S: From one of the videos I've seen, we get 5 characters slot at release.

Just watched the relevant ones, no more gameplay videos can feed my hunger. Feels so good when you get that Email that recognizes that you're a possible candidate.

You're supposed to get an e-mail to see if you're eligible?
Maybe I should retry.

Maybe I should retry. Yes, they've released a thing called a "Resender" yesterday. If you've already sent your specs and still haven't recieved an email, just use the Resender and you'll get it.

Love wrote: Done watching videos, people are just terrible and I get upset. Totally agree. Most of the Press can't dodge for shit. Only decent ones I've found was Totalhalibut. (Although not good, Yogcast are pretty funny guys). We should make sure we're all on the same Home server. We can switch servers whenever we want to meet friends (PvE) but for WvW you fight for your Home server. If you want to change Home server, you must pay a fee (Cash Store I assume). Anyways, assuming they won't have the Asuras and Sylvaris in the March Beta, I'll roll a Charr Ranger and a Thief. I'll probably be able to chose which one I prefer after the event.

just read this from their FaQs site Quote: . While inside the organized PvP area, all characters will be the same power level and will have access to the same equipment. OMFG now this makes me want to totally buy the game. Pvp without have to do alchemy or all the PvE crap = EPIC

Higher level characters will still have traits over you and if I remember correctly better stats from gear as well ( traits also provide stats ). I remember reading something along the lines of you will have no chance of defeating a max level character as a low level assuming player skill is similar.

At least you'll have a chance to beat someone who's worse than you. In other games, you never stood a chance. So a million people signed up for the beta. Chances go down

To add to what Love said, they sidekick you up to 80 mostly so you can help in the objectives(securing supplies, capping, etc) without getting 1-shotted.

Hm what is the cap going to be? I dont really mind leveling and all (well unless its .005% per kill grinding in sro, repetitive etc), i just hate alchemy & crafting etc. Sure in group pvp or guildwar that should matter but in 1v1 i think it should be all skill based Looking into it this might be the first game that i buy for 60$

cap is lvl 80 and lvling is this game is flat, meaning it takes just as long to go from lvl 21-22 as it takes to go from 79-80.

Without a monthly fee, you can always take a break and start playing again. Hell, I've been playing the first GW on and off for the last 6 years.

In the original game you could get to cap in something silly like 3 hours yet I played for months and am not even close to having completed over half the available content, so you decide ( I believe the sequel has and will acquire more content ).
