"For our final Beta Weekend Event (July 20-22), were making the asura and sylvari races available to beta players for the first time. Players will be able to create characters from any of the five main races of Tyriahuman, norn, charr, asura, and sylvariand begin their Guild Wars 2 experience in any of the five radically different home regions."
More can be read here (http://www.arena.net/blog/play-asura-and-sylvari-in-the-july-20-22-beta-weekend-event).
See you in game!

That's my graduation weekend/girlfriend going back to India so seeing her off on flight. Will just have to wait for the damn game then :P
-
I'll be playing.....by myself apparently lol.
-
I'll still be playing my human thief for this.
-
mm I work this bwe...
sorry sequel, hopefully I'll find out what server my friends are on for launch
-
I play on Crystal Desert with a bunch of my friends.
-
Can't decide, asuran thief or sylvari warrior. I think running around as asuran thief will be hilarious so I might just save that for launch.
-
Ima be trying Guradian and Ranger I think next BWE.....though honestly I'm not really interested in any class other then the Thief..
Anyone got any suggestions?
-
Hardly, enjoyed Thief the most myself too :D
I just hope Thief won't be overpopulated, but judging by internet polls class balance is quite fine (except for noone wanting to play Engineer)

I tried playing guardian in the first BWE, and I didn't like it too much. It's a pure support class And therefore wasn't very fun. It did seem to help a lot in the WvWvW though.

Engineer is like the last thing I'd try lol.

Well, I just don't think the whole steam punk grenade flamethrower mechanical turrets thing fits into medieval fantasy, but oh well, if the lore says so..
-
vibe bro its just like skyrim!
-
I think we should consolidate on one server for all crpg players(NA) to go to. It makes the game a lot more enjoyable when you play with familiar faces. Astralis ATM is set up in Arachina Plateau.

Guardian and especially Ranger are both my favorites, with a greatsword that is.

I agree. I'll make a thread for it Gonna wait for the next beta test to form an accurate server list, any found online seem outdated. Luckily all the NA servers come from the same central hub, so people won't be split up from east to west coast. Sadly, though the Texans win again with the best ping.
-
Isn't it Fallen whos also on Crystal Desert?
Nvm it's NH who is.
-
Fallen is mostly EU so we're on Riverside EU currently, will change to whatever server the rest of the EU cRPG goes when it's released.
-
Probably either Whiteside Ridge or Gandara, I favor Whiteside Ridge though, Gandara sounds like shit.

please elaborate

We going with the people of us & our allies, definitly not in a German server and these 2 servers were most favored.

Okay cool. How come these two were most favoured, what were the reasons? (just asking out of curiosity)
PS: Gandara sounds like a disease :lol:
-
Yea which is why I prefer Whiteside Ridge...
Not a lot of retarded communities on it apperantly and they did pretty well at WvW, but then again... people migrate at release anyway so I didn't pay much attention to that.
-
Whiteside Ridge
racist
-
lol
-
If it aint white it aint right! Are you guys still all planning on going through with the crpg guild on launch, thovex? I think Zotte mentioned Nditions was going to try and do the same thing.
-
Can I join the CRPG guild? I'm going to pre-order today.

If you're EU you'll fit right in with the CRPG guild that some of the EU guilds have made.
If you're NA you can still join them but you'd be playing on EU servers....which is why I haven't joined em and I got a group of friends already.
-
Cool. I'm NA and me and my 2 CRPG friends are def gonna get GW2 and pwn some noobs. I'm starting grad school next month so hellooo free time.
-
Doubt I'll be playing on crpg server, depends because I doubt any of you have long lasting abilities (You'll all come back to crpg within a month). I'll probably be on a friends server and transfer over if that side dies first. It all depends who is where, although it'd be nice to organize an NA server before-hand so I can get my friends to hop on the same server and we can all be together. Oh joy.

Yup, there is another thread for picking the NA server. :]
Those are just about my thoughts exactly. I would rather roll with my irl friends than the cRPG guys, but it would be perfect to find out the cRPG server NA-side and just get my irl friends to roll there too. Best of both worlds.
-
I'm gonna try to make Karma join me in Crystal Desert with me and all of my friends. I know NH already plays there too.

Plus it is winning in the vote. It will likely be the server we will try to get all of NA to go to.

mega excited about the keg brawl 8-)

(You'll all come back to crpg within a month). I
Why wouldn't they? Crpg and GW2 are two different games in two different genres. I don't think the point was to ever make some mass exodus from crpg to never return, but to find a nice group of guys to play with. You make a good point though, I doubt GW2 servers will shrivel up the way the old republic has, but server downsizing is inevitable. I think people will stay simply because of the fact that there are no subscription fees, but who knows how active they will be?
To be perfectly honest, most people in the NA community im really not interested in grouping up with at all aside from a few individuals from different clans. Maybe i'm more interested in rolling with EU guys simply because I don't know many of them very well. (For all I know they could be just as insufferable by and large.) Im also not too interested in dealing with language barriers, so I might forego trying to go with a crpg group entirely and just stick with the four or five from MM that plan on playing.

There's no way GW2 will experience such a massive decrease in population, SWTOR was FAR unfinished when it was pushed out to catch the xmas sales and just playing the GW2 beta you can notice how much more GW2 is polished. Also no sub fee helps a lot :P

I'm hoping it be more balanced for wVw when game comes out... in bwe alot people all go to highcap servers leaving the ones in mid-cap and low-cap in the dust. Me and some Astralis and SoW would lead my server with 30 people and then get gangbanged by a snowballed 65+ squad full of alchemist.

Servers are going to be balanced after a few WvWs, obviously that can't be done over one weekend.

played a bit today on the crystal server. Bale Ohay norn ranger
-
Enjoying Asura. :)
-
If you go to Lion's Arch there's a few vendors that sell higher level PvE armor sets, you can right click and select Preview to see how they look, some are pretty badass. I tested the same armor set looks on Asura and Humans and it seems that there are a few minor differences in the look of the set between races.
-
Really enjoying it as well. Has anyone seen the mushroom head for sylvari? It's hilarious.
I wish it would be released earlier, but it looks like they still need to fix some glitches and bugs.
Also, does anyone know if the polymock arena is going to be pvp or pve quests like the last one?
-
getting some big lag when a lot of people are around tossing spells. Anyone know settings to try and combat that?
-
Afaik there is a particle setting you can lower.
-
Do you guys think (or know) if the game perfermances will be enhanced a bit more by the time the game launches?
I mean the game is pretty sweet looking for a MMO, but still, the FPS drops sometimes, hella weird.
-
Id imagine some optimization implementations will be made. Im just not sure whether or not they will have addressed it by launch time.
