The preorder bonus is kinda underwhelming. Only get to play 3 days in advance? They really overhyped the game, also with hype comes server launch issues and lag. People will be trying to zerg the login servers and they probably can't cope.  Starting zones will be swarming with people, don't think you could get a quest done like that. Think I am going to wait 1-2 months after release, check the reviews to see if the game is actually good. Gonna wait till the dust settles and if there's a boxed version by then, all the better. 

Hopefully this doesn't turn out to be another TORtanic. 

there's one for MY, I think

the only question is, if we want another LYN exclusive? Could always ask for a Subforum and whatsnot...

any news if there will be distributor for msia?
i want my game box!! LOL

mine be

AMD Phenom II X4 955 BE 3.20Ghz
8 GB Corsair DDR3 1333MHz Ram
Sapphire AMD HD6870
17" Dell 1280 x 1024

Hmm?

i5 2500k 3.4GHz quad core stock
12GB DDR3 1333 [overkill...kill...kill... (echo effect)]
HD6850 crossfire (right right I need to buy a new power supply later)
21.5" Samsung LCD 1920x1080
and my noob busy pile of cells and tissues called "brain" that is basically only 1MHz.

Not really sure if the game will support CFX/SLI on release or not... Usually most games don't. 

Mine 15.3GB, probably got leftover junks from the first first BWE. Next one 22 July id not remember wrong (flip a few pages back from here they are posted everywhere...)

Edit: oh wait, got 627 files downloading now...
Seriously... 

well my eyes simply cannot accept wide screen. thank goodness still got non wide screen monitors.

anyway, for hd, the resolution is 1900 x 1080 right? i.e. 1080p

mine is 1280 x 1024 or 1024p which is close enough to me.

Oh my.. When will this game come out ? Anyone heard rumors ?

anyone knows if there will be a new client when GW2 launched? or is it okay to used our current beta client and just download a few patches?

I think Crossfire/SLI is not yet supported based on their forums

does not matter as my eyes only focus on the middle. not the sides.
i use wide screen also waste the monitor only.

been staring at non wide monitors for 20 years.

According to the date, then head start for us will be 25th to 27th, hmm should take leave on Monday so can get to play the full 3 days

Kinda sad the GW2 is not distributed in Msia anymore like GW, kinda wanted to get the CE, I bought CE for both Faction and Nightfall.

Once I went wide, i can't go back to normal 5:4 monitor, be it gaming or movies, wide is the best for me

Hahaha just want to use those 3 days to properly learn the game since I didn't really play much during beta or the stress test. I am still a bit confused on how certain things works and didn't really get to experience the engineer class as much as I would like.

to all who have played the beta...what about ping/latency? smooth or spiking?

hey people participated in BWE, do malaysians need VPN to play smoothly on GW2? streamyx

So basically i can kill steal by walking to someone, one/two hit dead, get xp and loot. Find another person, one/two hit dead, and repeat process to fast lvl up?

You can look at it in some ways.

1.

"Oh, this guy is kiting 3 ettins. Damn, he's skilled! Oh, one ettin about to die, tag him to get XP... now he's working on the other 2, oh he pulled another one! The second one bout to die, tag him again"

The player who is kiting must be thinking "Damn it son, help me out!", even though he also got XP and loot.

2.

"Oh, someone else is on the heart as well. Oh well, time to put some shoulder grease into it" ----> proceeds to help nuke the ettins that the player is kiting.

The player who is kiting now thinks "Thanks for helping out son!"

And then they both proceed to kill ettins. They might pull different ettins, but they bring them close to each other proximity, so that the heart can be completed faster.

Well, during all BWE, I always comes across the second situation. In fact, nobody was leeching off stuff, so the first situation is nonexistant. Since naturally, YOUR heart will be completed faster if you HELP the poor guy kills his ettins, instead of waiting for the last moment to tag and "killsteal".

And everyone got their own loot and XP, so why not help the guy, and why must you be aggrieved if someone else is helping you to bring down those 3 ettins you are kiting?

Worth to pre-purchase now since I got nothing to do atm.

Heard beta ending soon.

After the 20-22nd there is no more Beta weekend and we'll have to wait for 28th for launching?

Green man Gaming got GW2 prepurchase for USD45.

So lucky I didn't prepurchase the digital version. 
If you want to preorder boxsets, pbbseller is taking preorders, price is RM160 per copy

Maybe i'll get a boxset to compare with my Prophecies boxset, heheheh ... so much difference between 2005 and now.

Full server? well then, off to another server. no biggie i guess. and since the game leveling curve is not that high compared to other mmo, i could always reroll another character when the said server is not full anymore. Huhu can't wait to play XD

can i access to beta if i get the digital version now?

thx for your reply, may i know what is BWE AND WvW? Can someone try to explain whats the enjoyable moment in this game? leveling and then pvp? do we need to farm equipment as well? sorry i am new and i still got a lot of questions lol.

Wow, thats great news (i dunno that fact since i'm not eligible in BWE). Thanks for the info bro ^^

When you think of Queues in the traditional MMO you would just sit there staring at the screen counting down the number which sometime moves up instead of down, but in GW2 Queues means you enter a separate world call "overflow server" where you can do everything you can do on a normal server while waiting to get into the server, whatever you do in the "overflow server" will be there when you are back in the normal server, exp/loot/gold/achivements.. everything

if you are not in a party, you will not even notice when you are transported back to the normal server from the overflow server, it's like magic...only downside is if you are in a party and you somehow dc and ended up in the overflow server you can't see your friends in the same party until you join back the normal server

As for the starting area to be full and crowded, trust me in GW2 you wan the area as populated as possible, mean you are always nearby a player which can and will help you if you accidentally aggro'ed too many mobs, or help you up when you are in the down state. There is no ks-ing in anyway in the game so don't worry about crowded place....

right now, am deciding between pre-purchasing or just pre-ordering from local distributors(to get the box). therefore, have some questions which i hope can be answered here.

how much in RM do i have to pay if i purchase the $59.99 from their site?

secondly, how exactly useful is hero's band?
