OK I CHANGED MY MIND

saw some vids and fell in love with the combat

but I'm not a huge fan of the whole downed skills shit


anyways I pre-purchased and will be playing this starting on the 25th. Anyone else?
Lybydose
yeah

no idea what server
Jinxy
Same, but timezones and schoolwork will probably set me back one day.
What are you guys going to be playing as?
Lybydose
elementalist or ranger
Icyteru
I'm jumping on as soon as 3 day headstart servers are up, gotta get that name Asuna and Kirito man.
Lybydose
oh shit I need to reserve all the Touhou names
Jinxy
I haven't even thought of a good Sylvari Elementalist name yet :(
silmarilen
im gonna be playing on far shiverpeaks i think and will be a necro, mesmer or ele. havent decided yet.
NoHitter
I'm still deciding whether to pre-order it or not.
Do you need to cough up that $80 to play in the headstart?
Jinxy
The most basic edition at $60 USD works. That's the one I pre-purchased.
NoHitter
Hmm I guess I could pre-order it then.
I just hope there's a close enough server so I won't lag when I play :(
Jinxy
Apparently SEA will connect to the NA data center because there's only NA and EU. I've played in the betas though, and it was pretty smooth for me. Couldn't compare in the stress tests, since they always happen while I'm asleep.
Keksi
Too sad i am on vacation ..

will be back sunday afternoon

hopefully the names i want aren't taken then.
kriers
Will be playing on Underworld.
Icyteru

Flandre is mine. And I'm making her necro.
Yuugo
I'll be rolling a Sylvari Elementalist on either Far Shiverpeaks or Gandara, I'm not sure which yet, and I'm not sure whether if matters in the first place..
TKiller
I've used my Guild Wars 2 fund to buy more cheap alcohol.

Well at least this summer was fun.
foulcoon
I forgot to mention, i got the digital deluxe version on gamefly for 20% off with a coupon code. $64 bucks instead of 80, the standard edition was sold out.

if you're on the fence and still looking to buy i'd say go here:

and use the coupon code:

1GFT82012
Icyteru
Damn...only $4 more.
NoHitter
Unless my internet speed skyrockets, I don't think I'll make it for the Headstart :/
Icyteru
WTFUCK.

NAMES TAKEN IN FIRST 30 SECONDS OF LAUNCH:

Kirito
Asuna
Flandre
Tenshi

SFUCKKK

So I'm now "Sword Art Asuna" , "Sword Art Kirito" and "Black Kuro Lotus"

lol.

They opened servers earlier I heard to avoid a massive server rush, so not really that fast. ._. Almost all the names I wanted were taken, and I started playing 30 min before the official launch ._.
Icyteru
Nonono, thing is, I started exactly on the time the servers were open (which was 3 hours before launch) and all the names I wanted were taken already.

And I already expected this...but damn network errors.
f e a r
oh god lol
silmarilen
my name was still available
Yuugo

If it's 'silmarilen' I'm not amazed :p

And @ the others, most reserved names were characters from GW1, at least every name with a space in it and could be a popular name, is probably a reserved charactername from gw1. As to the ones without spaces, well..you weren't fast enough :p
Jinxy
Can't even connect :|
silmarilen
nope, the whole game seems to be down right now. i dced and couldnt get back in.
nobody can from what i can tell.
Jinxy
So much for the 20 thousand stress tests before this

Well, at least I can do my homework now and dedicate the whole of Sunday to GW2
Drakari_old
I went and made a character some time around midnight before going to sleep... It seems nobody took Wingdreth.

I'll be playing on Sorrow's Furnace.
forgetM3not
the day has come xD
Jinxy
I'm in. Playing in Sorrow's Furnace for now.

Phyllon is my Sylvari Elementalist and probably main, Callie Ohpee for my Human Necromancer. Just using her as crafting or something, I don't know
Drakari_old
Human Female Guardian, since I didn't say earlier.
Icyteru
Who knew thief could be this fun?
Drakari_old
I didn't have much fun with the thief in the beta weekends, but maybe you wouldn't like the Guardian as much as I do so it's all good.
foulcoon
to me i dont see what all the hype was about

the wvw is pretty fun I guess

I play on Gate of Madness, Human Female Elementalist

currently lvl 16, taking it slow
yeahyeahyeahhh
Yay hit 30. Finally get to try Catacombs tomorrow when Lyby and few others catch up :3

My Ele at LA ^_^

Jinxy
How are you guys this fast, I'm only level 12

Meh, probably because I'm doing personal story quests too.

Also, what weapons are your eles using? I find dual daggers nice because of their fast cast times, excluding the 9 Bleed earth skill. Good for personal stories or anywhere with very little people who can aggro for you while you cast with staves.

I might try Staff but with the Flame Axe utility for solos.
