Factions out in Japan

according to http://www.guild-hall.net/forum/showthread.php?t=39634

http://www.guildwars.jp/event/c2/ seems release date is 4/21

http://store.e-frontier.co.jp/camp/c...060309_guild2/ here, the game is for sale in japan, release date is 4/20

Also seen ton of japanese with new armors in ID1 Random arenas.

woot... i NEED to find a japanese online store able to sell me a copy and e.mail the cdkey only...
i'm SERIOUS. contact me with a japanese store able to sell me a cdkey to play and i'll reward u with 100k ingame. only the first guy gets the coins of course!!!

If you translate the main site, it says they cannot access the Cantha worlds until April 28, but the game is for sale already.

just go to random arenas and u see how they cannot access the game... full of ritualist and assassins there.
friends of mine telling japanese can access the same FPE world in cantha now... not sure about that but for sure they can pvp with new classes now

Eh.. i wouldnt be too terribly concerned even if the game has been released to japan first. Mabey it was a public relations move because they were late to get Guild Wars originally, either way we all will be playing the game within a week. And start to get tired of the game in a few weeks ;P

Not fair, a week before us !!!

Yes I read, fpe...

Do you not read?

nice i'll be the proud owner of a japanese cdkey in a couple of hours

So hold on, if they can access the FPE content, doesn't that mean they can use the Storage and bring over unique canthan items RIGHT NOW to sell for a huge profit? I know in the FPE they locked down storage but is it still locked down is what I want to know.

That's kind of bullshit if they can do that.

So...they got a PvP edge over us now huh? I can get owned with assassins but I don't have any new skills to counter them?

What? OK! I demand overpowered psychotically awesome preorder items for the late release *twitch*! I don't care when they got the game. I want my copy... now.

That is pretty lame. I mean - if they can access the same "world" as we can, they should not get a head start. Oh well.... I don't PvP anyway....

Ineptitude, Clumsiness, Spirit of Failure. GG

Spirit Shackles. Or just an interupt on a lead or offhand attack. GG

i love it.

wasnt there a little announcement a bit ago that the japanese and koreans would be on separate servers which were also separate from the us/eu servers?

after you get it i hope you like the japanese server because you cant merge with another region

Just a note of info, AFAIK Japanese keys cannot be merged with American or European keys.

Edit:Beaten to it

they CAN. I'm the Ritualist shown on the picture. The japanese GW:F and US/EU GW:P can be merged. I'm a prime example of what comes out of it.

use of factions pvp : good for you guys.

I would only mind more if it was access to PVE. (cantha-presear and on)

/g'day.

Make a team and totally obliterate HA while you still can!
