Guild Wars 2: The One Thread

Well, maybe my main will change from Human to Asura depending of how awesome the Asura Week will be. I will certainly do an Asura Elementalist, but for my thief I'm still unsure if it will be a Human or Asura...

My eventual Thief alt will most likely be Asura. The one in the thief skill video is pretty cool

Then let the fools play there nerdy moles while I play my Charr warrior 'Punter of ugly Asura'

You stole my name! D:

Off to reserve it on GW1 brb!

Yeah I have the same feeling... I'm thinking about doing an Asura since I saw this video too and the Asura animations are so nice

I don't think your GPU won't have any problems, really. Your CPU may not either, but it's not a best situation CPU either. I keep hearing from the Computer forum boys that an Intel i5 2500k when safely and properly overclocked is the best CPU on the market for gaming.

2500K FTW Got one myself running at 4.6 Ghz... it's a beast :P

Am I right in thinking those are likely to reduce in price somewhat next year?

Interested in all the ways to customize the Asura, if they are satisfactory in that regard then i may make one, this is basically the way I feel about all the races so far.

I would throw a paragraph of text at you like I usually do, but we have videos for this sort of thing:

lol there are so many damn vids about Guild Wars 2 now that I don't even know what info is out anymore, today I feel like a fool.

Worth noting that more than likely GW2 will support quad core CPUs.

This makes me happy. I just need to crossfire my cards and I'll be a very happy person running on near max graphics (hopefully)

Combat is really smooth and dynamic, you can see by yourself with this video:


For towns, they are really big and awesome! Another video proof for you:

There's TONS of gameplay footage from conventions such as Gamescon and Pax It's as easy as writing "Guild wars 2 gameplay" on youtube's search bar

Well as stated above, there are numerous of demo videos from Pax and Gamescom. There will be a beta but not until the end of the year.

As for what to play in the meantime? Not sure, just depends on what you want. I'm just playing single player games and dabble in a few free to play mmos that are out at the moment.
