The inactivity of this forum.
Thu Apr 02, 2015 11:06 pm by Burkman
It's depressing to see how inactive it has been recently. I mean, everybody is pretty much primarily posting in the never ending thread now and there's not enough people here to make this place really booming. We need to find some way to bring more people here before this place just fades into nothingness...
I know for a fact that a lot of boards out there are thriving because of how many people are there. We just need to get back into the game and pull people here. However, where we obtain these people might matter, because we don't to end up pulling in douches like those at Selkath.
I understand that people are busy these days, but it doesn't seem like they're rarely at their computer anymore. I know most of you are still dicking around with your computer. I don't know how we …
Happy New Year OT! We may be dying... BUT WE'RE STILL HERE! We had an... interesting year last year. Vice Admin Burkman is taking a long earned vacation and Uly is stepping into his position. Well... I'd have more to say but I've got other things to do atm... and oh yeah... to quote Callin... "GET A MIC YA BUM!"

"Guild Wars 2 is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game developed by ArenaNet and published by NCsoft. Set in the fantasy world of Tyria, the game follows the re-emergence of Destiny's Edge, a disbanded guild dedicated to fighting the Elder Dragons, a Lovecraftian species that has seized control of Tyria in the time since the original Guild Wars. The game takes place in a persistent world with a story that progresses in instanced environments.
Guild Wars 2 claims to be unique in the genre by featuring a storyline that is responsive to player actions, something which is common in single player role-playing games but rarely seen in multiplayer ones. A dynamic event system replaces traditional questing, utilising the ripple effect to allow players to approach quests in different ways as part of a persistent world. Also of note is the combat system, which aims to be more dynamic than its predecessor by promoting synergy between professions and using the environment as a weapon, as well as reducing the complexity of the Magic-style skill system of the original game.
As a sequel to Guild Wars, Guild Wars 2 features the same lack of subscription fees that distinguished its predecessor from other commercially developed online games of the time, though a purchase is still required to install the game. As reported by NCsoft and ArenaNet, by September 13 (about 2 weeks after launch), despite temporarily halting first-party sales, the game has sold over 2 million copies. The game's peak concurrency exceeds 400,000 players. As of January 2013, over 3 million copies of the game have been sold."
Any Mods or Admins with more info please edit them in. I'm not a GW2 expert.

Spoiler:
We should all try to be on the same realm. They're all based in Dallas, TX. No idea which ones will be higher pop, and which will be lower pop realms. We're taking a shot in the dark, but we should take that shot in the dark... together. <3

Daroska got his Guild Wars 2 collector's edition on monday. It is now friday and tommorow, he shall play three days before anyone else. With that in mind, I'll be rolling on a north america server and a european one.
Good for us is that server transfer is quick and free so we can join up early. And we should really have a roster right about now, to see who'll play at launch. I'll definitely be in, so anyone else who's joining up (even Uly), are free to join me.
As well, I'm probably going to roll a charr ranger, mesmer or necromancer.

Eh, Arenanet is a good development group (if a tad restrictive like Bioware on rules). Unlike the horrors that are Infinity Ward or Blizzard Entertainment or even the hellish EA. So the rather cheap (in the UK) collector's edition was worth helping Arenanet out.
As well, the items in it make it really worth the purchase. A lot of top quality loot inside.
But anyway, when you get on, send me a note to tell me what server you're on. Maybe some of my beta experience will go in handy with you or we can get around to finding some of the other serverwrecked off-topic'ers, heh. That'd be pretty fun.
And I've also got the heritage armour and some weapons! Unfortunately, the grind was a real pest, especially playing as a dervish doing the nightfall campaign. Urgh.

This explains nothing... if you don't know just say you don't know.
I am sorry. I fell to the superior intellect of your trolling. Congrats to you.
I have no idea what Guild Warz 2 is.
