Is this their way of saying that it's been postponed by a couple weeks? The full access beta probably isn't an access to something like an open beta, but rather, something like a "pre-release" of the game where everyone can get a head start on the game. Personally I can't wait, going to get one of those CEs for sure. No more food for the week ;_; | ||

It clearly states on the site that you get access to all beta events. It's obvious it will work like in SC2, at the later stages of beta, you would get a key simply by preordering the game. This is probably more like SWTOR which had weekend events where you could be invited to play the beta for a weekend (I got 2 weekends in SWTOR), but here, you get access every single weekend if you have pre-purchased the game. | ||

To be honest the game looked very polished in the news outlet beta footage so I'm not too scared of a long beta. The game looks like it's finished, at least the parts they showed us. Balance seems pretty good and everything seems interesting. I'm sure there's bugs and some minor things but that would happen even with a 1 year beta. | ||

Yes and you believed what others say all the time ? ;p Heres a new clarification from gw2 When do Beta Weekend Events (BWEs) start, and how many will there be? The first BWE is currently planned for late April, and we expect to have one every month or so. The schedule is subject to change and will be confirmed at a later date. Currently, we do not know how many of these events we will have. Once a month and there will be some of them . Seems it doesnt worth pre buying after all and it gonna be a long beta which everyone who playes mmos for more than a decade knows its always like that ps frpm the comments The original Guild Wars had 6 beta weekend events November 6th 2004 until November 8th 2004 December 4th 2004 until December 6th 2004 January 7th 2005 until January 9th 2005 February 18th 2005 until February 20th 2005 March 18th 2005 until March 20th 2005 April 15th 2005 until April 17th 2005 | ||

I love their pvp system wich resembles Daoc , graphics , their pve , some of the classes. I do rly hate the lack of character progression in pvp both from gear or and abilities this is a huge nono for me. Having perma access to a polished beta was a treat for me to pre buy or even buy the game ( since i rly rly rly hate the lack of character progression once more, feels like dota to me ) also theres the D3 release and tbh i dont know which to buy and focus of these 2. Gameplay wise gw2 seems like the best overall by far but again i dont see holding me after a couple of months due to this lack of self accomplishment gw2 lacks | ||
