Once again shamelessly stolen from the main boards.

Most complete guide on the game I've seen to date. Great info in the PvP area. (And everywhere else for that matter)

That's a crap-ton of information.


And just reinforces that GW2 is either going to be amazing or epic fail. It is clearly way more ambitious than any MMO we've seen in a long time.

At least it is ambitious. So many games are coming out now that think if they make 1 or 2 small changes to the WoW formula they will make it big. I have news, you aren't gonna out-WoW WoW.

The more I read about combat, the more I'm not sure this game is for everyone (including Nuem unfortunately, who wants to be a 'main' class).

If it plays the way it reads, lots of people who are used to point, click, and hit (wait for heals) are not going to like this at all.

Can you jump? I couldn't stand not being able to jump in GW.

Thanks Squigs thats an awesome link! I cant wait to play!

wow lots of innovation in this game. I wonder if it will be to too much for gamers who are used to the same type of MMO. No quests instead dynamic events. Is this the next gen MMO?

There is no firm release date yet. With how betas are ramping up, a summer or fall release this year seems likely.
