Hi!

There is a new game coming out on April 28th (I think) called Guild Wars. It looks so good IMO. Its an MMORPG with NO SUBSCRIPTION FEE! There is over 750 skills for each class, and of course, each character can be two classes. Furthermore, unlike other RPG's you can destroy pretty much anything (I think) e.g. You can destroy bridges which people need to use!

Was anyone thinking about getting this? Ive already pre-ordered the Special Edition which comes with a Logitech headset, 3 months teamspeak, artbook, soundtrack and an in-game item which I like to call "t3h sh1ne!!1"



www.guildwars.com for more info

[Edit] Sorry, more like 150 skills each class :o Ooops

like you get to some level and game turns repetitive and after you get some more levels... there is nothing to do left.

what can you say about that?

guild wars focuses more on PvP and skills not levels or grinding ;)

I say whoever said that has not played PvP and is probably not in an active guild. PvP is not repetitive because you are always playing different people, just like an FPS game.

If you haven't played PvP and you mainly play PvE and THEN say it is boring, then you need to realise that you have missed out on the part of the game that the developers focused on...PvE is just an extra.

I recommend these class combinations:

W/Mo - Standard, used by many. Survives for a long time, medium damage, GREAT for a beginner

Me/N (Or Ranger to replace Necromancer) - Great for bringing down spell casters! Can also be adapted to be really good vs warriors as well. An annoyance character!

E/N - Works quite well against Warriors, fun ^^

E/Mo - Im using this build at the moment, it is a really good healer. Build up energy storage, and you can heal forever! Yay ^^

I've been playing it ALOT now and I've got to say its totally awesome!! :D As my first MMORPG game I'm really impressed of the grapichs and the scale of it considering it runs perfect on my pc on highest settings (And I dont have a dream PC)

I'm still having truble deciding the classes I want though. It can be annoying at times :)

In my opinion, the game only gets boring if you do it all solo and THEN dont even PvP. I have been playing since the day it was released, and Im not bored yet! PvP rocks (even though Im so bad at it) :P

But as I said, this is my opinion, and you have your own opinions :)

Hey guys, I bought the game, I installed it and now it says I have to login, but I dont have an account so I create one, but now im confused, where it says "how do you want to play Guildwars" there are two options; Purchase Online or Access Key. I dont see any access key on the Box set, any help would be greatly appreciated.

:EDIT: For god sakes, the Serial was covered by some grey stuff that was able to be scrapped off. How the heck should I been able to see that in any case. Sheesh.

No, there's no shapeshifting class available. The game costs as much as a normal PC game really, unless you buy the Collector's Edition which includes headset, artbook, soundtrack etc...
