i hope beta will be open to everyone like we just go to the store and pay 5 bucks for a beta cd and key.

but alpha should be private and be need to be invited.

my friends were also rumoring about guild wars 2 having the ability to fly i see that as unncessary for traveling since there will be map travel but flying will be a cool feature in world pvp and for combat like the dragon event came and you wanna sneak attack him with a flying fire bomb or something.
flying will also be cool if anet decides to introduce castle seiges, dungeons should also be equipped with flying as well as gvg it sure would be awesome.

Why the title is "GW Reborn"? Since when GW has been dead?

Not at all. People want to know if they can continue to play Guild Wars. Yes, they can. People want to know if we will shut the servers, as we open Guild Wars 2. No, we will not. It's true that a majority of our focus would be on the new title, but that does not mean that we would shut people out of Guild Wars in the future, and it was that worry that I most wanted to address.
That's the kind of crap they told the "Auto Assault" community as well and well we see that NCsoft DID UNPLUG us Aug 31st of this year in fact. So, why use that lie when you have no clue if they (NCsoft) will leave the servers on after GW2 comes out. NCsoft runs the plugging and unplugging not You and certainly not Anet. I guess it's safe to say ANET WON"T BE THE ONE doing it, the ole twist of words, but, anyone with any common sense knows NCsoft is running the show not Anet. Anet are merely the developers.

Yes because they don't want to make any money off of the original games that have sold over 4 million units. Great conclusion. Because we all know that Halo 1 never sold any units when Halo 2 was about to come out/came out and Halo 2 stopped selling units after Halo 3 came out.

Fly?I think your friends are mistaken. NCSOFT has another game, Aion, that is touting the ability for characters to fly. Not saying that GW could not add that ability, but I personally don't see it being an added feature.

I do agree with the Alpha/Beta tests. Alpha needs to be done by people who know how to handle the testing and reporting that is necessary to work out the glitches/bugs that can hinder or ruin a players experience.

When it comes to Beta, I would like to see current GW players offered an ability to beta test before they offer beta keys at retail stores.

There's a huge difference between Auto Assault and GW. Namely, that Guild Wars is a good game that people actually play, compared to Auto Assaults four sales.

GW already has a huge fanbase, many of which will continue to play even after the release of the second, and I'd be more people buy it simply to unlock more features for the hall of monuments in the second game. I see no reason why they wouldn't keep it going as long as people are playing. Where as with Auto Assault, did anyone even care when they shut down the servers? Was anyone still playing? They only said they'd keep it going as long as people were interested, I don't think three or four players count.

I think if you are going to cap to 100 or more, Then well, You should give us more attributes to spend and make items ( including Armor) to have certain Req like you normally, like if you have a Magic Axe where on lvl 50 or Higher (just saying) Strength, let us keep going, Ok i confused my self i think, Uhhhhh Ok here is how it is, You need 50 Strength to use a shield but, you only have enough for a lvl 45, It needs to have more Attributes when you level, How about you get 5 until you reach like lvl 10 then it becomes like 10 until you reach lvl 20 it becomes 15, like that. Also, You can only get your type of armor some where else (Not always in same spot like in GW1) Plus, when you click on someones name, it will give you the Chance to see what weapon they are hold and armor, plus have Player Monitors ( who you trust) Watch out for Hackers ;( Not ppl who are using Glitches) <--- Cuz so many ppl are being reported cuz they are trying a new Glitch that they Found out and PPl report them for hacking..... Gets on my Nervers when someone does it, Back to subject; ppl who are spamming just doing things they really shouldn't do. Then, Make Game Developers with some sort of Sigh on there head that shows they are the Creators ( you dont help to) So if someone needs help and others aren't helping, you can help. You should also give more storage space or have it where you can buy extra Slots ( not in store) For money ( Sort of Expensive but not too expensive)
Well that is all i can say off the top of my head, cya all in GW sometime

I think a level cap of level 40 would be great, well between 30 and 50/60, and a big world :P and not gaining too fast experience or too much of one monster.
Furthermore, as i have heard these details it will become great!
