    Reminds me of the time I woke my 6 year old sister up and told her it was Christmas - in June.

    I just told a friend who wanted to play GW2 on my account so badly, but ever since BWE2 and all the stresstests afterwards, she was unable to play them. She is psyched that she can play on Wednesday, if there is no test on Wednesday, I'd say hide in a bunker.

    just saw this post on GW2Guru, didn't see it here yet. Some good news and some not so good news (regarding endgame)

    Some stuff from Gamescom that I think hasn't been posted yet:
    http://forum.ptrealms.com/viewtopic.php?f=78&t=581
    or for the English translation:
    http://www.teamquitter.com/viewtopic.php?f=55&t=30601

    1. The accounts will have a system authenticator (digital and possibly physical) similar to WoW - official information will come out next week.

    2. In case of account hacking the account may be restored to their prior state before the intrusion.

    3. There will be live in-game support (similar to WoW) through tool that we already use to report BUGS, we will be able to contact a GM in real time.

    4. The end-game is not 100% completed, there is much work to do, but ANET is not expecting the the end-game to be reachable quickly, they are now focused on the release, if all goes well they will move on to work at 100% in the endgame (DiabloIII nostalgia??).

    PS - They are aware of the disaster of Diablo with the end-game and ensured that will not happen to GW2, after the release team will jump all just work in end-game.

    5. Are being explored new methods of PvP, GvG is confirmed to return to GW2, but said they could not disclose much more.

    6. New merchandise will be launched on 28/08/2012, including Dragon T-Shirts.
    Now before we all jump to conclusions about "endgame not being ready" let's all take a deep breath
    Monk, I need a monk!!!

    Not worried at all about End Game, lol what's the rush and Anet know exactly what they are doing...

    Also i found the "source" of the Stress Test rumor,

    #4 is kinda troubling. In practice it may end up fine. On principle, it's not at all respectable if accurate.

    I tend to agree with this, the only exceptions being if by "not finished" they mean "There is a couple lines of dialogue missing here or there, and the balancing is slightly off from where we want it."
    If by not finished they mean balance is significantly off or there are largely unfinished areas, there will be problems.

    I wonder what is unfinished. Atm, what we know about endgame is:

    -Endgame open world zone in ORR with a back-and-forth battle between the players and the undead.
    -8(+different modes) Dungeons

    For me this seems enough for launch. Would like to know what is still under development though.

    I probably should have like bold/italic/super size/caps the IF up above. Just because it's so damn vague and really I can't actually read this "source".

    I dunno they seem to have some sort of "end game" in place seeing as they talk about it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-YBsK17j6I , but maybe its only like 80% done, but not completely unplayable... that "source" above, who knows how reliable it is?

    ETA: Unless Anet say it themselves i call BS.

    Well obviously. I'd assume by unfinished they mean "not yet polished" as oppose to "not even started", it's pretty obvious that endgame is at least partially done.
    (If true, of course)

    My point is Anet have not said it is unfinished(yet)

    But at no point during that video did they say "Endgame is 100% done" either, I'm just unsure what relevance it holds.

    Either there would be a recording of this interview or a more credible source would have reported this information. Even if it would be true, they are at Gamescom to promote the game, not to talk about what it is lacking.
