Guild Wars 2

[xer0s]

Damn, missed another one...

[U4EA]

Evidently the last two races [Asura and Sylvari] will be playable this time.

[xer0s]

If anyone knows of any more invites, I'd be grateful...

[U4EA]

Why don't you pre-purchase the game?

[xer0s]

Don't know if I'd like it. Never played Guild Wars...

[U4EA]

We need Geoff in here to make fun out of poor people.

[Ryoki]

How does one give away a beta key? I prepurchased this sucker but i'll be out of the country during the next beta.

[Eraser]

As long as you haven't tied it to your account I guess you can just give it to someone else. After that, I reckon you're out of luck.

[Ryoki]

Oh? What if i installed it and never looked at it again because i couldn't play it, would that mean i have tied anything to anything or not?

And it's memph who would be out of luck, i mean to give it to him you see

[Eraser]

Oh I dunno. Did you ever received a separate key that grants you access to the next beta? I guess not, right? Perhaps because you pre-purchased it you automatically gain access to the betas.

[Ryoki]

Oh, yeah, i think that's actually the case.
Sorry memph

[Mat Linnett]

I know for a fact that Memph's okay for access.

[Ryoki]

Well then!
Problem solved.

[xer0s]

Pricks...

[Eraser]

I preloaded the whole thing but when I click "Log in" I get an "unspecified error: 9". Is this because there is no beta period right now or will I get that error next weekend as well?

[MKJ]

you sure you didnt preload diablo3?

oh shi-

[Eraser]

lol. I actually should've googled a bit better yesterday because now I found some forum thread in which people say it's because there is no beta event, so I guess I'll be able to log in when the time is right.

[Mat Linnett]

Bargain alert, you can pre-order for £24.99 over on GreenManGaming, but only for 24 hours.

[xer0s]

I'm getting an Error 404 on that link. They probably wouldn't ship to the U.S. anyways...

[Mat Linnett]

4 hour stress test tonight at 8PM BST.

[Mat Linnett]

Another 4 hour stress test tonight at 8PM BST. Missed most of last week's thanks to the feckers only announcing it on Facebook

[U4EA]

Servers are up. Laggy as all fuck at the moment.

[Mat Linnett]

Aye, been on and off since 5AM BST. Got most of my characters done, but still one left to go. All of the good names have gone too. To be honest, they should have done names on a per server rather than global basis.

[Deathshroud]

I'm on Fort Aspenwood. Add me if you're on: jpotts.3874

[Eraser]

To be honest, they should have done names on a per server rather than global basis.

which could cause problems if people switch servers or "guest" on another server. Having said that, I still think it's sort of dumb to force names to be unique. There's more people with the same name in real life too, right?
