Today is the UnOfficial start of Guildwars. Tomorrow will be the official but anyone who reserved it can play today. Hopefully this will be the start of another Diablo 2

Ive heard this is really good but i can't play it on line. Not until next year anyway. But i am confused.. What is it about?

Edit: Spelling correction.

Its basicly a MMORPG but more liek DIablo 2. You need to form parties in towns to have poeple with you on quests. The PVM is great because you can't jsut go through the game on your own. PVP is tremendous. It depends more on well palced skill points and how u use ur skills ratehr then equipment and level. So a level 15 could beat a level 20 depending on the skills of the lvl 15. The only donwside so far is that level 20 is the highest level which could easily be increased by a update. The slight downside is that their will be porbably be expansionpacks so rather then paying $10-$15 bucks a month you'll have to spend $40-$50 bucks a year or two on expansion packs.



This gameplay is much better then WoW but could still be better from thing in WoW. Unlike alot of MMORPGs you cannot jump in this one... tho who really cares.


Guildwars has alot of emotes... you could probably start your own band infact... have a necro dance, mesmer play guitar, barbarian play guitar, and like elementest drum.

That actually sound really good. next year Bob and i will be one it!! On our 1.5 Mb per second Broadband... Eh, eh???

It looks really good, but there is something that irks me about not being able to jump...that's why I always used barbarians in D2 and they also made funny sounds when they jump.

Well there is no purpose to jump. It would really jsut make a game too easy to be able jump. Since quests areant as stupid and easy as in WoW with jump they would almost as easy.

I have not played Guild Wars nor WoW so I don't know, but jumping can help you get out of crappy programming glitches...but like I said I wouldn't know.

You stop gaining experience after level 20 or is that the highest recorded level so far?

Its the highest level at the moment. But thats mainly because they don't want anyone player to be a god. in WoW a lvl 60 could kill 60 lvl 1s. In Guild Wars abut 4 lvl 1s could take down any 20

What happend on WOW. Did someone get really powerfull and pick on everyone? But stopping at level 60 is pritty dogie. But then again , stoping at level 99 , or level 100 is weird aswell. (ff7 & ff8)

No. But on PvP servers that can happen.

Levels are just palceholders for how strong you are. Rather then make a name for each state of strenght they make a number.

I often think of levels of a symbol of how much you play the game, not your skill.

Well i know im going to get GuildWars ASAP, the game looks very good and from what people tell its damn near impossible to screw up your chracter and their skills. I think im going to be a Mesmer/Elementalist.

Well u can also undo 5 stat points a lvl 24 max saved up. You can only use 8 skills at a time but have like well more then 50. No specific weapon reaigns surpreme. Each weapon has its own strong alogn with armour. Soem armour could be 50 armour +25 agaisnt elemental and other could be 55 armour +10 agaist melee.

yups I have it. I have a wariior, and I havn't really decieded for my second class a monk or a mesmer. If there are enough of us we should start a guild

it costs quite a bit of gold. I dont like RP that much :/.

Im getting the game tomorrow, ill post my user/char name or whatever they use on here after I get it.

Thats what Justin said.....well anyways my chars name is Stormshroud Mcgee.

Justin can't even fit his fatass in your computer chair...

I'll probably name mine Gerard Popodopolous.

Is there an overall point to the game? Like a main quest or something?

Yeah i think there's a main quest. My name is "Akuma Eek" Its off of a D and D character I had named Akuma Eek the Undertaker
