Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

These are pretty good as far as player skill is concerned.
Most other MMOs would just have you get splattered by design.

TB released some videos during the Wrath beta. That was his rise if I remember correctly. New zone info + British voice = novelty.

I write news and stuff. It is fun.
Search your souls, you know this to be true.
I'll just throw this one out there.
Most of the American gaming videos I see gave a major flaw in that a very very very small number of those guys have a voice for anything other than silent movies. TB sounds like a major sports announcer in his commentary, and instills his videos with that same kind of energy and level of quality. Xephos, of yogcast, at least sounds somewhat decent, but if you've followed them its actually Honeydew, squeeling guy, who draws a lot of people. Probably because the lack of seriousness draws in the gaming fringe.
There are a few people I would listen to if they did reviews and commentary, but sadly the mouth breathers, quiet guys, napoleon-dynamite-sound-a-likes, and other poor examples I see most often don't make me hopeful for a really successful American review.
Playing ability doesn't draw people as much as entertainment quality.

I still don't see it coming out before June at the earliest, even with beta now happening. Just a conservative guess based on ArenaNet's rate of development and putting out updates thus far. Who knows.
It only takes 5 minutes to sign up...
Why can't you sign up the during the 8-11 hours that you don't work these two days? You do three things. One, download the diagnostic tool that sends your computer specs. Two, enter your email. Three, wait for your confirmation email. I don't see the issue.

I'll also be on Entaru's vent if Entaru is around or whatever. Info for that is in the OP, and the password can be had from me or him.
Beta signups take all of 5-10 min. You give them basic info, put your guild as the PA What A Nice Guild, and do the diagnostic. Then submit and wait. The confirm e-mail shouldn't take long now that the hammering is mostly over on their end.
I was under the impression Jon Peters was playing as one during the press beta and was doing quite well at it, probably because of his being a developer with intimate knowledge of the game and all.
I haven't been able to find a lot of footage, but thief is a pretty fancy class. It kind of epitomizes GW2's combat system due to its reliance on mobility, the fast weapon swapping, the no cool down on weapon skills. It's like top shelf shit. I'm not surprised people are having difficulty with it.
Until I see a video of it I do not believe.
Yeah, aptly named 'Jon Peters Thief'.
This is an old video, but this guy isn't horrible:
I wonder how many sign-ups they got.
The source for this is the announcement that ANet is going to do an AMA (a kind of question & answer session, for those unfamiliar with Reddit) on WvW topics tomorrow morning: http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/q3glu/ama_on_guild_wars_2_world_vs_world_tomorrow_8am/

Fairly big news on servers and changing servers:
Given that we can "visit" other servers, there is some flexibility, but it seems if you want to fight in WvW with particular comrades, you will need to share a home server.
Steam (Ansatz) || Planetside 2 - Vanu (Ansatz) || GW2 Officer (Ansatz.6498)
i'd say at least 1 Million
If there were an option to use in-game gold, that would be rather cool, though.
Steam (Ansatz) || Planetside 2 - Vanu (Ansatz) || GW2 Officer (Ansatz.6498)
In fact, thinking about it, it is pretty much required. Otherwise there would be a giant clusterfuck of people hopping servers as the rankings shift.

He's been doing gaming commentary/podcasting for well over a decade, so while the CATACLYSM beta may have gave his youtube channel major exposure, he'd already been fairly well known to those who cared about that kind of stuff.
I don't mind Lewis and Simon by the way, anyone with a lick of sense will see what seems like "Stupid Shit" is them horsing around... y'know, stupid shit, or playing the sort of character they've built up with their fan base.
The @googlemail.com thing worked for me by the way. Got my confirmation email. Now to wait...
That bow thief video was pretty cool. I really like the teleport arrow and the short sword movement. but I am not sold just yet. Got to see what kind of options the elementalist has.
