Could not find a thread for the game only a trailer link so thought I would start a new thread you can now register for the beta at https://beta.guildwars2.com/

Nice, looking forward to this.

Have been watching the Bonk videos here:



Has done about 20 episodes all featuring different aspects of the game. Good for people who don't know how this game is different to other MMO's.

Thanks for that video link - it's useful but I am worried about spoilers

[Adam]

There's nothing story related in the vids from what I remember, just explanations of the classes and game systems.

Notch tweeted earlier that there is a NDA for the beta, do they seriously expect gamers to stay quiet?

There is a list for retailers up now, dates of 10th April to start preorders so it must be close to the finish line now.

The CE looks good if your interested in the series. I have all the previous collectors editions which came with art books etc.

If a player breaks the NDA they forfeit all of their Arenanet accounts, so... yes.

In fairness, these kinds of public betas are quite common and very few information leaks occur. Which is quite spectacular, really.

[MisterBubbles]

On that note too, anybody breaking an NDA will usually never get an invite to any other beta again, seems AN are taking it ultra serious.

[FelixofMars]

The NDA however has already been dropped for people after this weekends beta, which is stoopid in my opinion. It almost makes it worthless having one.

Play have the best price for the regular version.

When is this actually out?

[Adam]

Was wondering that myself. Didn't think the Tera beta was all that great so this is the only other MMO on the horizon for me. Thought ?39.99 at the Play.com link was a bit too expensive, then I saw the price it's listed for on the official site. ?50, Jokers!
