Preparing for GW2 beta

[Dragonb]

So I was just wondring how people are going to prepare for the beta weekend. Like what your routine is going to be like and your food choice etc. Are you going to play the most you can or just go about it casualy.

For me I'm thinking that I should stock up on some enegery drinks to stay awake and trying to sleep as little as possible. Going to explore all that I can and enjoy the beta to the fullest

No fatty snacks etc.

Water, good food, I got fruit stocked up already.

I don't want to feel like shit during the Beta.

Energy Drinks do nothing good for your body, just fyi.

I probably won't have much for caffeine, maybe 1 cup of coffee but only toward the end of my 25 hour shifts. I want to play for 25 hours, then sleep for 10 hours, and then play out the last 25 hours. I don't really need to worry about food either, plenty of that here. I just need to focus on staying up, but I don't think it'll be very hard.

[Rapti]

Well since its gonna be ONLY beta event I will "nolife" at, Ill be stacking up some water/energy drinks, some food (prolly snacks, maybe Ill order a pizza or something).
Wont be getting much sleep during the event :P.
For future BWEs or release itself I wont be spending as much time on/in it (wont have the time :/). So at least might get that one last time hehe.

Friday - Sleep like a bear in his hibernation (due to a huge mid term exam i have that day, been studying a lot for it).
Saturday - Play playplayplay
Sunday - Study (Exams :'c)

Will most likely just eat and drink like any other day (on a diet before the summer).

Plus that I wont be able to play during saturday and most of sunday at all since I have other plans that I can't get away from.

Will probably come down to me getting some extra sleep when I come home after my exam on friday and then just play the beta all night until I have to leave on saturday morning.

i remember when cataclysm was release in wow. i was up the 1 night and what i ate/drank was: 1 glass of water and 1 orange .. water makes me not tired (lol?)

I have been excirsing these past 2 weeks , in order to play and drink beer non-stop

[Bodaway]

I don't see any reason to sit and play non-stop just for something that will be erased when it's done. I'll play it a few hours with different professions and all that to get a feel for it and see how the servers respond. Once the actual launch is out I'll be a little more dedicated to it.

Coke, some food. I'll be staying up the whole night and next day.

Well, I think I'll go about things like I did the last time I played... Drink water, maybe a coke or too. And wake up early to play and not stay up overly late! I'll have to study for a math test though So I'll set aside 2 hours on sat/sun for that!

I would like to do something like that but I know it would be extremly hard for me

[Zhuuu]

A shit ton of Energy Drinks and Doritos, I don't plan on sleeping all weekend.

[Mif]

Actually I think I'll go pick up some 2 litre bottles of double espresso iced coffee.
Last time I drank one of them I was awake for 30 hours off 3 hours sleep.

Just another day but I'll be playing GW2 instead of other things. Also, probably will turn my phone off so I can't get called in to work :P
