Let's see how the level cap works in GW2 and then decide.
A lack of character-transfer is a good idea, especially since the story occurs several hundreded years later. Men are mortal and so you are you.

I'm looking forward to it, and if you don't, well, this should not be the place to voice it, because nobody cares, nobody will miss you.

btw: DX10 ftw! =)
Whats up with the positive posts? why should you get your opinion and no one ese? feel sorry for you pity you. your obviously the one seeking attention complaining about other peoples opinions.

DON'T BELIEVE ME EVERYONE GUESS WHAT THE ORIGINAL PLANNED LVL FOR GUILD WARS 1 WAS ------------------60
Well, I hope the decision come from the Developers and not some bean counter corporate big shot. I work in big corporation and I know they have one thing in their mond: profit. So, when they see WoW with 10 million subscribers vs 2 million GWs, it's enough for them to make decision like this. EA anyone?

What month is this issue?

Increased level cap? New races? World of Warcraft did not live in vain, it seems.

That'll teach me to come up with witty theories. I should've remembered that.

We're all doomed. ^_^

I'm sorry I didn't know World of War craft Invented MMOs
In fact I didn't know they invented books and mythology THEY EVEN INVENTED GAMES TOO AND Having lvls and an open world

By the way finally there removing the cap of 20 to please ignorant people who say " O guildwars that looks cool I play WoW whats the max lvl? 20...... wow that game sucks."Theyve already said they're going to try to keep pvp balanced gvg style ect.

Something I want to say to people who complain about the lvl cap is get over it and if you don't know that Anet will be smart about it , I suggest you get a reality check. Anet isn't stupid they know people will hate some things and some will love change. Thats life and another thing im happy they're making a new game finally something new with amazing content and gamplay for free. How do I know this...because I have faith in the company Arena net.

It sounds really good. A way for the game to take on some radical changes and for the best without being tied down with the current chapter system and all of the other parts of GW1.

Cant wait until Beta.

Before Nightfall was realeased, people started worrying about fees.
Gaile said there never will be fees.
Before Eye of the North will be realeased, people will start worrying about fees.
Gaile says there never will be fees.
Before Guild Wars 2 will be realeased, people will start worrying about fees.
Gaile says There. Never. Will. Be. Fees.

I fully trust Anet/Gaile in this. No monthly fees is a major reason why people buy these games, and keep playing them. Anet/Gaile never let me down in the past, I'm definately going to buy GW2, and hopefully I'm able to participate in the Beta, to make the game even greater.

I highly agree with your view.. I find it so hard to figure out why people think there will be fees gosh....

Hmmm... raised level cap? Regardless of how they balance that (lvl 30 no different from lvl 100 or whatever), the thing that they can't balance is player mentality and human psychology. Won't be very long before we see messages like: "Forming group for "insert area", lvl 100+ only, no noobs." That statement becomes even more true depending on how difficult it will be to level in GW2. It may have no difference like how rank doesn't show how skilled a player really is, but it's not going to stop players from rubbing it in your face.

Oh well, as always, i'll reserve my comments for after i've seen the real product, but i'm not exactly liking what i'm seeing already. What i would love though is if the game engine got an upgrade so certain things are more useable *cough* aoe *cough*.

Agreed. What's up with the low amount of added skills?

Also, is that 10+5 skills per class, or a broader ratio that favors newer classes to even them out a bit more?

I'm very worried about what i just read. I defininitly agree about the "bloated" feeling but i just worry that guild wars 2 is sounding like its too much like other games. In my opinion that has always been one of the best things guild wars had going for it.

XD man,that cracked me up . I like the idea of running around as a Charr as well.

So I'll just sit back and relax and see what Anet will present us with.

Till then i'll just have fun with Prophecies,Factions and Nightfall.

Happy with the idea of GW2.... However I spent a lot of hours on a soon to be worthless character.

I'm very interested in how this monument will turn out.
Painful Titles are the GMC/Ale-hound/ and lightbringer, that will soon be lost, pending monument..

I won't play wow, I've tried last month but it didn't take.

Positive people don't need attention. Learn that lesson in RL imo, then come back and realize that it's pathetic to cry over a game.

The "Holidays" usually mean Thanksgiving/Christmas....So I'm guessing a late November release for GW:EN

Your statue will be facing the wall in the Hall of Monuments, holding a Flashlight in one hand and a Flagon of Ale in the other...

Seriously, I like new beginnings, it will feel fresh and I gathered from Gaile's words that veteran players won't be just "honoured" with a plaque in some shady tomb While I don't expect something that will yield some advantage over fresh players, something like Divine Aura is in GW would make me feel warm, especially if it's related somehow to my old character.

Galie said that something in GW:EN will have an effect on GW2 (forgot what precisely). Also stop calling GW2 "WoW2" ffs, if WoW is the ONLY game of its kind, then i'll eat my headphones. Anyone ever heard of Silk Road? That can also be called a WoW clone then.

Games like GW that blast out in totally different ways don't come out often. Even if it becomes more WoW-looking, can u tell me how do you want to improve it whilst not getting a bit closer to WoW? Everyone (myself included) wouldn't dare for a second to complain that an auction house is bad b/c it's too "WoW-ish".

I don't mind having to restart from scratch (but I wanna my char names).

PS: Galie, I (like all ppl here, I guess) would like to sign up for the beta. Any talk about it yet?
