Preview makes it sound spectacular. The waiting is unbearable!

NotJeff · 04-01-2011, 10:43 AM

New class reveal, probably around only *TODAY, 4/1*.

DiBiddilyBop · 04-01-2011, 01:11 PM

I've been looking for an upcoming MMO to jump into. This may very well be it.

One of the best parody classes I've seen in any game. They really went all out on the videos for it.

DiBiddilyBop · 04-05-2011, 09:34 PM

New race reveal.

Looks good to me. The more I see from this game, the more excited I get.

DeathByVoid · 04-06-2011, 10:29 AM

Nice they look like furry rodents. Still going with Asura.

Shieldmaiden · 04-06-2011, 10:35 AM

That's not a playable race, it's a kind of monster. Same with the Kodan info from a few weeks back.

DiBiddilyBop · 04-06-2011, 10:38 AM

Aww, that's too bad. Seemed like that'd be a cool playable. Oh well.

Grifter · 04-06-2011, 10:54 AM

Stop teasing me damnit!!!

I just stumbled across that preview on Eurogamer mentioned earlier, and damn, does this game sound like a breath of fresh air.

Quote:

There are no healers as such; every class is effective in combat, can revive allies, and can equip one healing skill. Lead content designer Colin Johanson is emphatic about ArenaNet's rejection of the tank/healer/damage roles. "We're basically saying, listen, this as a core game mechanic is tired, we can do something better, we can do something more interesting than this... And that's what we've spent many years now perfecting and working on, and getting to the point that we feel we have a combat system that doesn't need it and, we feel, works better without it."

I've pretty much sworn off MMOs, but that right there makes me want to try it.

resikel · 05-04-2011, 12:45 PM

Looking good!

Cyndair · 05-04-2011, 01:20 PM

Excellent video. I don't think I've ever been so sold on an MMO prior to its release. It just looks solid all around. I hope it isn't a mirage. I also hope that the true potential of this game can be realized without a monthly payment plan. The original GW was great but I felt like it suffered from a lack of true progression once you hit lvl 20.

Xerxes · 05-04-2011, 01:42 PM

Do want. So glad I'll have a PC that should play it with out belly aching.

CappinCanuck · 05-05-2011, 11:51 AM

Wow, that video worked on me. I've been waiting for a good Realm vs. Realm system since DAOC.

Ondo · 05-19-2011, 06:03 PM

New profession announced today - the Engineer. Also a related interview up at wartower.de.

Shieldmaiden · 05-20-2011, 06:41 AM

Okay, that looks awesome. I think that might have to be my first class.

NotJeff · 05-20-2011, 07:20 AM

Come to me my underwater love. Info on underwater combat.

GamesCom is bringing a ton more info - from the ArenaNet blog, there's a list of what will be in this demo (PvP, character customization, and all five races), and of what mechanics have changed.

There's a new trailer up for GamesCom here.

PvP info from the ArenaNet blog here.

GuildWars2Guru is tracking info coming from GamesCom here.

In somewhat older news, they just had Sylvari week, and there's a nice interview from San Diego Comic-Con over at NecroBator (part 1, part 2).

Ondo · 08-17-2011, 04:22 PM

So Wartower.de has a couple high-quality videos up:
