    Well, the stress test isn't necessarily just for the product, it's also for the servers themselves. In order to effectively test and balance WvWvW in the first place for example, they'll NEED to stress test those servers, as they're still figuring out what the exact maximum number of players per server will be.

    This. /\/\/\/\

    It's like when they stress test cars before releasing them to the general public (i.e. crash test, mileage test, etc).

    Oh god, I don't even want them near Guardians. They are going to make me cry, aren't they?

    They managed to make Guardians look very uninteresting and boring. They loved it though, but were a bit confused with it.

    The video was taken down cause the sound was broken.

    Well when you don't know how to dodge or even move, anything can seem boring. Did they even show how versatile greatsword or hammer can be?

    Most likely not. They couldn't even make the Thief look interesting, and only talked about the abilities as if they could only be used in PvP. No offense, but they have to have some of the worst coverage on GW2 out right now.

    The videos they do doesn't really explain the professions that well. It's more of a video showing the '1' key being spammed and sometimes the '2' or '3' key. They will make Guardian look really boring probably.

    Like in the Mesmer video, he talked a lot about the portal skill, but he never walked into it, showing it off.

    To be fair, they only had two days to look over the eight professions, while also having to record and comment on videos about the professions.

    I don't really enjoy their style, but you have to admit it's a lot of work.
    I hope you haven't forgotten my role in this little story. I'm the leading man. You know what they say about the leading man? He never dies.

    If you give in to your impulses in this world, the price is that it changes your personality in the real world. The player and character are one and the same.

    They liked the hammer and the knockback on it. But yeah... I agree with what you're saying: they can make any/every class look boring! I'm sure it'll be re-uploaded again soon.

    Really wish they would stop making videos. They're doing more harm than good by making the combat look sooooo boring.

    ? I felt Yogscast did a lot better job than most of the rest of the press.

    Sadly that's true.

    I'm really disappointed with Totalbiscuit, it's been like a week and he's released one or two videos. =\

    That's because he's not in the country right now to make the videos, his wife did one and he did one while away.

    He didn't even get to play in the beta, he had people (like his wife) play it and send him footage. He has easily 40-60 hours of it he has to edit and narrate.

    He has over 5 hours of WvWvW footage... does he really did to commentate over all of it?

    He was in Finland most of the week. He said he'll make more videos these days.
