    Also, since there was talk about the beta client, saw this on reddit: "The Beta client used last week will carry over to future Beta events. Devs confirmed it and told us to keep it if we intend on pre-purchasing."
    So maybe those with slow connections / bandwidth limits / only able to download at certain times may want to download early on. *shrug*

    just paid 20 euros to reserve my CE pre-purchase in case it's sold out at my local store.

    Paying 1/3 of the price of a new game to have the opportunity to pay 130 euros more in a few days for a game which hasn't even got a release date feels silly

    Pre-ordering the pre-purchase like a boss! :P
    I'll be getting a digital version, so I'm pretty sure I'm at no risk of them running out by the end of april 10th.

    If I wasn't moving out next week, I'd shell out $150 for the CE for the soundtrack... but I am trying to take solace in the fact that I might be able to find the soundtrack post-release on Amazon for some equally ludicrous amount.

    Just so everyone knows, I downloaded the client from the link. It was legit and I now am staring at the Guild Wars 2 login screen..... and now I'm sad.... =P

    But honestly, its cool to have GW2 downloaded and installed so I dont have to worry about it later when everyone else is installing.

    Same. Wish I could have the link though, I might not be home around that time to download it before the weekend actually starts.

    You may still need to re-download it for launch, as far as I know they've only said it'll be good for future betas, no word on release version yet.

    THat's true.. theres always a possibility... but most games from what I've seen keep the client from beta to release. GW2 could be different but we'll see. It was really cool to wake up to the Guild Wars 2 login music ^.^

    Has anyone else seen the March 2012: State of the Game? It an interview with Colin, in which it talks about several things. Most interesting is that one of the ANet team will be controlling the Elder Dragons, rather than trying to make them with some sort of scripted AI. He also confirms a 2013 release date. Sorry if it's a repost, but I couldn't find any info on this after a minimal search on these forums.
    Why do I run? Why do I slay? Why do I play? ...Carrots? Nay.

    That, and the speaking style of whatshisname. It's obviously constructed. :P
    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.
