Whats the release date? I've been thinking about getting this game.
They been saying this game was suppose to come out for like the past what 5 years. I think its a pipe dream that will never come true. I play the original but only do the holiday stuff as I dont have a clan no more so not much to do with heros and such.
Work on Guild Wars 2 began in 2007.[30] It was announced March 27, 2007[31] to coincide with the announcement of the final Guild Wars expansion, which was designed to act as a bridge, in both gameplay and story terms, to Guild Wars 2.[28] The development team abandoned the early open alpha and beta testing which they had used for the Guild Wars game. ArenaNet considered that player expectations for open beta tests of MMORPG had changed, and the beta was no longer used to test the game but to trial a nearly finished game prior to purchase. Beta tests scheduled for 2008[32] were cancelled to ensure Guild Wars 2 had maximum impact and appeal to these players.[21]
In August 2009, two years after the game was first announced, ArenaNet decided the game had reached a state where they were happy to show it to the public.[33] A trailer which mixed animated concept art and in-game footage was released at Gamescom, followed by interviews expanding on the lore of the game world and information about the player races.
In November 2009, NCsoft CEO Jaeho Lee stated the game would most likely not release until 2011, but a closed beta would be made available in 2010.[34] The Q4 2009 shareholders notes further supported this when the CEO stated that "the current development target was the end of 2010 but, Guild Wars 2 likely won't be released until 2011."[35]
A playable demo of the game was made available at Gamescom (19
Trust me I laugh everytime someone says GW2 is coming out soon. When it comes out I will get it but thats if it ever comes out.The entry for it on wikipedia shows just how little faith you should put in their announcements:
But when it eventually does come out, I'll get it, as I enjoyed the first one. Plus, with normal MMOs I don't play them regularly enough to justify paying the subscription.
I had some fun off and on with the original but not too interested in this. I'm from the old school Ultima Online days. Played it from release day to 2003.
