Try the E3 Demo!

This game might be better than War3, online and no monthly fee?! Oh yeah!

These are the guys that defected from blizzard to form arena.net, BLASPHEMY!

On another note: I look forward to seeing how they did.

Yes, the Guild Wars E3 show will start in 2 days.

I don't know if Adron told you, he's been testing it for a while.
So, for vL members there's always a chance to join the Alpha =)

This is fun, although I can't figure out how to get new clothes. :(

For those of you that play what's your name on there? Mine is Cairbre Cinncait.

Edit: AH Ha! You can't change your clothing it's based on your characters professions, I thought you could buy the armor and such I just couldn't figure out where.

I haven't been on since early this morning.  I just got home from work and have to pay attention to my wife for a while.  That way she'll leave me alone the rest of the night. >:D

After I read your post I added you and invert to my friendslist and it said you were on, odd.

To Thing: When we were talking did you disconnect? In the friendslist it said you were still on but I didn't receive any more messages nor did it show what I had sent on the screen. This happened earlier too, perhaps just a bug?

I downloaded it, but when I go to open the game it's just a blan black screen. I don't belive it's a problem with my video card, seeing as I could see the graphics to make my account and such.

No I didn't disconnect, I thought you left.  I just now stopped playing after a few missions.  Fun stuff.

After I asked you "Have you been doing solo player the whole time?" you didn't reply so I went and did solo player. Then I started whispering you again and it didn't put my messages on screen so I figured two people in solo player can't whisper. Then I went back into town and it did the same thing. Must be a bug then.

Awesome game. The graphics are amazing... Going to take screen shots and post them when I get home.

I went necromancer/monk, fun combo, but I couldn't play the game for more than 10minutes. You start off in an isolated place with nothing to gain, gets boring real fast.

Yep, Solo sucks.  Cooperative missions are pretty cool but I like the competitive ones the best.

Chilling with someone that owns a Lynx (not shown) after everyone else bailed out because we couldn't find the end of the mission (if there even was one).

Note: I'm a different character now.  That was one of the first missions I played.

Both of you look a bit gay like Siegfried & Roy. Where is the white tiger?

Also, note how I made my screen shot smaller so it does not fuck up the tables on the forum, thanks.

Resize loses quality.  The tables look fine to me.  Maximize your explorer window and if that still doesn't do it, increase screen resolution.

Who thinks they will play this when it is out?

I'll probably download it before buying, it looked ok but I definitely wouldn't have bought that.

I probably won't get it.  By the time beta is over I'll be tired of it.

I'll probably get it, any idea when they start accepting people for beta?

Ask Adron about it, he knows all you need to know =)
