sorry if this question may feel a little random but when do you think anet will finally release videos of how guild wars 2 is going to look mostly everyone says it will probably be in the beginning of 2008 then they show us a more current version of gw2 before the beta opens.
so does anyone know when they will give us some sweet guild wars 2 videos?

ps:when do you think guild wars will hit the 5million sales milestone seriously its taking long for them to hit 5mil.

"Pre-nerf" is incorrect. It's pre-buff.

Damnit. I was so disappointed by the thread after reading the title.

They'll probably release videos at the time of the public Beta tests. One way or another gameplay footage will leak out.

I am pretty sure they just hit 4 million(I think in either august or july) so it might be awhile longer before they hit 5 million.

Agreed with Makosi, I was really disappointed by this deceptive thread title too.

Short answer.... its not even CLOSE to unveiling GW2. A.net has barely said ANYTHING about the game at all... and you are expecting in game videos? It won't be anywhere close to done, and if videos are released, they will look like those GW alpha videos on youtube that look like wow.

Ie, if they release a video now, it won't mean anything.

Best guess in this thread so far.

Don't expect anything sooner than that or you'll just be disappointed...

They should release some non-spoiler footage of something - anything - after New Year's. Just to feed the Buzz Machine. Then some more around April.

Not likely anytime soon. Guild Wars units have the best sales during their releases, and it's well beyond that time. Although the $9.99 Prophecies campaign might pad ArenaNet's numbers slightly...

Highly, highly unlikely. I expect some high-res concept art -- which, of course, will be beautiful.

2009-2010? I thought beta was planned for 2008 in the fall or something like that. I imagine we'll see some stuff then

You trust an ArenaNet ETA?

How long have you been playing Guild Wars?

Agreed. If the period were a question mark, that would dispel a lot of disappointment.

Anyway, I doubt we'll see anything till nearer the Beta release, whenever that will be, unless something gets leaked. Don't hold your breath.

How could ANYONE think, even for a moment, that the thread title could possibly refer to existing GW2 footage?

Do you people have NO concept of time?

Okay, for reference, all of you can go outside, find a nice person of the opposite sex, convince them to like you, get engaged, get married, and have a BABY, before there's even the slightest chance that GW2 will hit store shelves.

Heck, if you're attractive and charming, you might even be able to shave enough time off the first stage of that to have your child see its first birthday before GW2.

But, since I know nobody is going to understand a word of that, I'll just say that I'm expecting cool movies of GW2 on September 19th, 2008, and I'll be extremely disappointed if I don't have them on that exact day and I'll rant a lot about how incompetent Anet is!

Oh, that's right!

I totally forgot about that video. I take back what I said about it being stupid to expect anything this early.

I was especially impressed by the cool shots of the new Charr!

Not to flame or anything but...

Zinger, why do you still post in GW forums if you don't play anymore? I don't deny your experience with Anet and their timings and release dates but seriously, what do you care?

PS: if you come back later or for GW2 you're more than welcome though
