I was pretty excited when I talked to a dev about this 2 years ago at pax.

At this point I just want to hear that a beta is going to start sometime this year.

Yeah :/

Warhammer makes me super sad when I look back on it. They had a lot of potential there and just slow pacing and general bugginess killed it.

I thin warhammer was ass because it tried to copy WoW too much. GW2 is definitely trying different things.

I think game releases that start off bad give a game an undeserved reputation that is hard to change. Not always the case, though.

Looks like RvR!! Not sure about server match ups changing. What I really liked about RvR was knowing the opponents. Made the fights more interesting. Hope they don't do it too often.

It'll change every 2 weeks, but with the servers ranked it's likely you'll end up forming rivalries with servers of similar size or skill by getting matched a lot.

Don't worry milk, I've got a PBR and an arcade fire cd waiting for you for your next yogscast viewing.

I never thought about it like that... but it really makes sense. The individual rankings of just RPs and the weekly leaderboards was enough to keep people going, it didn't need to be supplemented by an endless loot farming cycle.

Yeah... but once WoW came out it seems to have solidified the notion in everyone's mind that an endless loot farming cycle would lead to an endless release of endorphins which would keep the players (paying for the privilege of) coming back for more. hypnotized

Of course I dunno what motivated TOA which I think came out a year before WoW? Just the need for content to sell retail boxes, PvP imbalancing results be damned?

The basic idea behind TOA was really cool. It was just horribly executed. I think that if the rewards were primarily cosmetic or provided an easy alternative to the calculus required to spellcraft a decent rvr suit they would have been much more successful. Instead we got % modifiers and stat cap boosts.

The bugs and grinding didn't really help either.

I enjoyed all the raids and encounters in toa. but, it's like being assigned a book to read for a class. being forced to do it makes it blow.

agreed. I enjoyed the encounters in toa, but I hated the results (ie: toa bonuses)

Very true.

That is insane. How the hell are they ever going to balance that class?!


Cooldowns on powerful abilities and weapon choice locking your skills?


I think in GW1 you also only had a limited amount of skill slots. Not sure if GW2 is going in the same direction.

Basically, instead of the game telling you "Target is not in range". You'll still do the ability regardless if it'll hit anything.

Man, seeing those videos really makes me want to spend a lot of money on an upgraded desktop and give up the little free time I have on that game. ;x

Yeah, unfortunately I'm gonna have to upgrade as well.. Gotta find a way to get some extra cash for it. Definitely worth it though.
