I applied to Ignis. Just a few things though: Im not sure how many Hospitallers will be playing this game. If its only a few I wouldnt join the hospi guild but if its like 10+ members then we might make a guild. The other thing is that since Im an NA player I will probably be playing on NA servers unless there would be group events going on. Hopefully it will still let people switch between US and EU districts freely like in the first guild wars. I guess Ill just have to wait and see.
It should let you switch, since this was a discussion I had with Boss Awesome too and we checked a few facts. Point is you buy either EU or NA version of the game and this only means FROM where you can play the game, not on which servers. So Boss Awesome (who is NA) was thinking of setting his home server as EU (for World v World) and then when there's no guild action going on just going back to NA and playing there.
Is my copy of Guild Wars 2 tied to my region?
Yes. To play from North America you must purchase a North American copy of the game. To play from Europe you must purchase a European copy of the game. Note that this restriction impacts where you can play from, not which game worlds you can choose to play on.
PS: to all the people asking how we can prepurchase a product that we don't know how will play, while not knowin how it will really play is essentially true, there have been a few press betas where different gaming sites/people covered pretty much all the aspects of the game in long gameplay videos, so that gives you a good feel on how the game will work.
