    Guild Halls trailer! And Pre-order is LIVE!



    Dulfy notes from the livestream:

    • Entire map your guild gets to own.
    • Map gets owned by Jungle dragon and enemies first. Your guild need to capture the map.
    • Customize, personalize, and decorate.
    • You can form guild teams to complete in pvp leaderboards and world leaderboards (new feature).
    • New guild portal to guild missions.
    • Can build different buildings within the map.
    • Combat Arena – combat sandbox you can duel with each other or invite other guilds to duel. You can customize it, put traps etc.
    • Guild workshop – New guild crafting profession.
    • War Room allow you to build tools to help you in WvW. Can call airships to defend a castle in WvW for example.
    • Pre-sale for HoT will start very soon and pre-purchase will guarantee you access to beta weekends.
    • Pre-purchase for HoT starts now!

    Here's the unboxing of HoT!

    Also, why is there no option to purchase the expansion without the core game? I already have the vanilla GW2; I don't want to pay for it again just to get the expansion. Am I missing something?

    Basically you can't buy the core game anymore after HoT comes. It is pretty much the same thing they did with the EotN expansion.

    I wish they added a character slot, especially with a new profession introduced.

    Yeah, that's annoying. I have a free one already open but for players of the base game with all 5 slots filled, it is basically another $10 to play a Revenant.

    They way they should have done it, if they wanted to box the core+HoT together, is make it so that if you apply it to a pre-existing account, you get an extra character slot, otherwise, you don't. The same way they handled additional campaigns in GW1.

    Eh. I dunno at this point. I might wait for the game to go on sale for like three dollars or whatever those sales go for. The game has been pretty lackluster for a while and this new design in HOT is just uninteresting.

    Don't feel any desire to really reward Arena.net with a purchase personally.

    That would have been good, but I already tossed aside some gems for a new slot in anticipation of them not agreeing with us on the issue.

    I just want more areas, and so far it seems pretty limited.
