All these great features...man if it just had OW PvP to go with them, it be the best game ever! Imagine dynamic events happening in the midst of a guild vs guild PvP over control of a boss or a village...awsomesauce.

Main question on every MMO gamer's mind right now, this or Terra?

The only thing that sounded "bad" was regarding the crafting. I am sure that they can change a few things about it, depending on player feedback once the beta starts.

Guild Wars 2, Tera or any other MMO?

Definitely this!

I've sort of been on and off the MMO scene quite a bit, GW2 is looking very good in terms of art direction and animations, but the combat system doesn't seem as great as it could have been, but I'm definitely looking forward to this as well as Tera(a game setting the gold standard for MMO combat).Zubinen

The World vs. World We just learned the details last week, and this weekend we got to play it. Words can't describe the feeling you'll get wandering the Eternal Battlegrounds with your closest guild mates or even complete strangers. You're fighting for your entire server, and it instills within you a sense of true pride to go out there and make a stand. Siege weapons, dynamic events, underwater attacks, trebuchets, ballistae, explosives… these fortnight-long wars will be the talk of the town once everyone's had a taste. Sure a lot of ideas are borrowed from the past, but that's okay, because it's been far too long since we had three-faction PVP this good.

Dark Age Of Camelot PvP Style. The best idea to bring back in any mmo since. I have no idea why no one else has done this. Ive been waiting for almost a decade for this to make a comeback and I'm happy it's with GW2.

Im excited for gw2 (gw1 fan), but that was one of the worst reads ive seen.

All the Bads were cop outs (except crafting): He could have easily said lag, buggy ai, too many particles, etc but instead did stuff like "its over"

The goods: professions. Thats so boring and vague. He coulda said something better like profession balance and not just restate what anet advertises

Sounds good, cant wait for this, i highly doubt the crafting could be worse the SWTOR or WOW and even so bad crafting dosent matter, like Im going to spend all my time crafting. I will max the skill get what i need and hardly ever use it again just like the other games.

What do you mean the final nail? The game will have a very steady sub base for the forseeable future. A lot of people really love the game. I don't really think you can compare GW2 to SWTOR. They are both really different.

Also a game dying is not a good thing for anyone involved. People lose jobs.

10 years ago, DAoC was the best MMO I had ever played. Since then, it has ascended to the best game I have ever played. Back then, I had time to play it.

I won't have time to play GW2. Someone please play a violin for me.

Thanks for the link to the review... I'll try to force some time to play.

The PvE loot system doesn't make people fight for loot like most mmo's. Anyone who rolls high enough I.E. over 75 will get the gear that dropped.

The PvP system has it's own sort of preset gear for you to chose from. You do not bring in your PvE gear. Everyone will basically be on even standing grounds in PvP if you've maxed your level and have everything unlocked.

[QUOTE="jer_1"][QUOTE="Prexxus"] Thats good to hear, when I used to play Aion, after my Guild Wars days, I hated trying to get good gear, it was such a grind.And of course I would have jerks roll on gear they didn't need or could use, and then try to play stupid, when you confronted them. I hated players like that. Elann2008
