I'll survey how long it will take to get to the new maximum level.
If it requires a significant time commitment, chances are that I'll create one character and stick to it for the rest of the time.
What will you do differently in GW2?

First thing i will do is to HOPE and PRAY i can find a group who will play with a Human warrior, and not discriminate against me because im not a Sylvari warrior with +2 resistance to magic dmg, or a group that wont want to lynch me because im not playing a Charr warrior who has +2% dmg to humanoid creatures and +2 resistance to fire.
I'll also hope to Melandru i don't get called a N00B for not playing a Norn warrior who can go Ursan from go.
LFG - for coop, Warriors must be Norn/Charr , 2 Elementalists MUST BE Asurean, Necro and monks MUST be Sylvari or -gg-.
hmm, Hoping they include an extra line of chat space?

I'll buy CE and focus on one or two characters instead of 7...

Do 1 char, play PvP only, then quit when it all turns out to be a bad game.

I'll find out which race/class is the most like a Mesmer, then do what I love: annoying people.
And go straight into PVP. I'd ignore PVE completely.

I hope race has absolutely ZERO impact on gameplay besides appearance, like it does now.

What is lacking in GW1 is a decent social system.
1) Announcement in the chat window that a Guildmate or a Friend has logged in. Also the option to disable this.
2) Being able to send messages to all Friends. This will likely mean that Friends are a two-way system, instead of a one-way system now. There must be options to disable these messages, or to block a particular person.
3) Some way of seeing which outpost or instance your Guildmate or Friend is at, and the option to remain hidden.
Since PvP is kinda like the sports of GW, and everyone loves the sports pages, high end PvP matches should be announced in the chatbox, so that people can turn on their Observer Mode. Also results should be announced in-game.

While I think jumping is nice, I do not like how it is implemented in many games, players can constantly jump at the same speed as normal people walking. How do you tell an AI from a player, the player moves around exclusively by jumping.
I hope that if jumping is implemented in GW2, it will be more realistic. There should be a pre-cast time (bending down), jump, and a cool-down time (steady yourself, pant). And a guy constantly jumping will be much slower than a guy who is running, and a bit slower than a guy who is walking (you go try this with a friend.) Anyone hit during mid-jump should be knocked down.
This allows jumps to be used over obstacles during battle, but not turn everyone into Mario.

Not trust Arena Net with my money again... That's for sure!

Make one character, do a bunch of stuff and then when I think I'm ready to start a new character, then I will.
I learned the value of patience.

Wooo... I can think of a few things.
Not lead my guild that will be carrying over unless there is this huge overwhelming demand from the people carrying over from 1. Just my luck...
Not have a primary support char amongst a guild of all damage dealers. Always being support while everyone else always kills is lame.
Not rage delete my characters as a noob 500 times in the first month, screwing up potential b-day rewards, if they are indeed repeated in GW2.
Do a little more PvP earlier on. Trying to learn PvP this late in the game is turning out to be an lol experience that I don't have much patience for 90% of the time.
I'm going to actually indulge those 1v1 "no u" kids and RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing kill them. I don't care if I have to run the lamest, most gimmick build (or equivelant) to do it. Bitches WILL die.

Man I hope they have a levitate side skill in the game. I always loved levitating in Everquest high up in the mountain and treetops, it was pretty scary when the spell or potion was fixing to wear off and you tried to recast the spell and it fizzled. <grin>

I will start the game on the pvp side and get into pve later
Limu Tolkki
Less pve characters (tho different races are going to make this difficult). Focusing more on pvp and earlier too.
