Awsome Error for the announcement on the login page.

So much for ANets policy of "Test things for bugs prior to"

Can't wait for those skill update bugs next month.

Also anet have time zone problems as 12 noon pst is -8 gmt not -7.
Anet loves to confuse everyone who isnt pst and maybe they could find out exactly what gmt is to pst ( and help reduce the mass "what times does event start" questions each event ).

Anets new motto - we can make games but not tell timezones

As many of you know. if you read more depth on the Z Coins. in the interview with Linsey. Here Quote from her "You get ZCoins which you can trade into ZKeys which you can use to get ZTitle points, so indirectly: yes, they do. (The whole ZThing is really funny :P) poke | talk 22:16, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
i meant can you Get Zpoints for your Z-title directly (as part of a quest reward) =p"

which is awsome now there is an easy for PvE and PvP Characters to get max Zaishen Title without doing HA or GVG and get Zkeys with expense of Zcoins. So let the decreasing of Ectos and Zkeys drop after this update because now anyone get Zkeys with expense of doing the Zquests for Z coins. Awsome reward from the quests.

What you guys and gals think of this.

Sounds like this update is now the official death of selling zkeys.

Is that a fact, well let the QQ ing begin I doubt ectos will decrease in value but certainly Z keys will if thats the case.

Still, looking forward to seeing all the crybabies come on here and moan shrill about this like old banshees.

not only that. it be death of alot of items now. Everlasting Tonics will be worth nothing after this update. People can farm for Zcoins trade them in for Zkeys, which could be used on the chest. There like unlimited chances now for Everlasting Tonics. Which also nice but those ppl who spent 200e+ on them lose that money.

Yeah, and brimstone and fire shall rain under the red moon...

Geez...

Farm what? You can only make 3 quests per character and account. So I don't see how can you farm something that is so limited and may take quite some time, depending on which quests are available that day.

Hm... so many Z stuff...

ZKeys, ZPoints, ZTitle, ZCoins, Z Gundam, Mazinger Z, Dragon Ball Z, Powerpuff Girls Z, Panda Z, Roujin Z...

What's left?

Vabbian Armor with ZCoins?!

I'm guessing that's PVP-only, right?

So far, the only know uses for ZCoins are:
- Unlocking animals in the Menagerie.
- Collectors (Crème brûlée, anyone?)
- Getting ZKeys.
I'm watching pretty close any new info and although they said they may have more uses, I don't think you'll be getting armor pieces with 5 ZCoins or less.

Not to hype things up, but bear in mind that what we know so far about the update is only part of the entire thing. Don't forget the HoM changes!

Either way lets wait for official word on the subject from Anet, I feel this is a little speculative.

Noooo, they are meant to go up today as part of an update. When that update is ready, it'll get posted. We have never been given a time that it will occur. Read the announcements carefully, they give a definite end time, not a start time other than Thursday.

Indulge your Sweet Tooth when Birthday Cupcakes start dropping from creatures across Tyria, Cantha, and Elona.

See awesome hourly fireworks displays over Lion's Arch, Shing Jea Monastery, Kamadan, and the Great Temple of Balthazar.


Another typo on ANET's part? Not instilling alot of confidence with so many attention to detail issuses. Wrong dates posted in game and on the website, no announcement of the easter weekend at all in game.......someone play the Benny Hill music.

\/\/\/\/not unreasonable to ask what is going on already have one typo\/\/\/\/
