    I can't pre-order. If I do it will guarantee the game will suck.

    That's odd. Try not clicking anything, just type in the code and hit Enter, maybe? I've a few friends that don't have GW1 accs either and they had no problem. Also, popup and script blockers, disable them for a moment.

    LOL they want 55€ for the basic DIGITAL edition. Don't they realize I'm used to downloading my games for free?

    Not buying this until I can get a cheap Russian key.

    Might be worth trying through a different browser. Definitely weird stuff though.

    Check german retailers, you should be able to find it for much cheaper. I paid less than 40€ for mine.

    50€ Not that that is much cheaper but it's more in line with what one would expect. I'll wait till it's released and then see if I can't a version for 40-45€
    (I don't trust Russian key sellers...)

    Not to mention that a Russian key would bind you to a Russian data center. Good luck learning the language bro. Oh yeah and the extra lag, too.

    There's been some shit with FF and flash/java/whatever plug-ins lately, might well be because of that - afaik unless you disable it, Chrome just quietly auto-updates itself and all the essentials. I did register through FF though, FF3 to be precise. So yeah, probably some plug-in issue, either you were missing something or had something installed that fucked it up.

    What game has Russian data centers? There's usually just EU/Kwa/Asia.

    Where was that?

    http://www.verkkokauppa.com/fi/product/29830/dgftj/Guild-Wars-2# no idea if they even accept orders outside of Finland tho. The point is, if they can sell it for that price, you should be able to find some german store at least matching it or going even cheaper.


    Those necros with their corpsepaint masks look p. cool, hope the gameplay doesn't suck ass - I normally hate traps and minions in games. Every fag is going to make an elementalist anyway so I wouldn't want one of those.

    Definitely going for melee classes, myself. And funny enough, it kind of looks like verkkokauppa has the cheapest GW2 prices in the whole of Europe for some reason, especially on the CE.

    Hmh, could be because they're using jew trickery and avoiding VAT altogether by sending them from Åland. I'd offer to order on behalf of those who haven't yet (there's no disc on those anyway, just the SE key), but they're back ordered now, could be weeks until they get more.

    Surprised at all the Silvary/Asura faggotry, but oh well, more rats for the Charr's to stomp.

    Also, if anyone finds out if Verkkokauppa ships internationally let us know, because that's damn cheap.

    I bought the standard edition, not a fan of figurines and other extras but If the in game collector items prove to be useful I might upgrade my version through in game cash shop. Also I hope that Mesmer will remain a unique class, the class video they showed was a bit too actiony for my taste.

    Really didn't expect the plant people to be so popular. Interesting.

    I'll probably hve to make a token plantperson or risk angry messages on my pidgin. But deffo gonna roll with the charr on my main. Fuck yea angry industrialist expansionism.

    I may end up having a norn as my third just because vikings. I have no intention to play human or asura.

    Charr will be Engineer, Sylvari will be mesmer. I'm pretty much the anti-reddit judging by their poll.

    the article on their redesign increased their popularity quite a lot.
    what surprises me is that charr are so damn unpopular. after the second gw1 public weekend way before game release a lot of people were crying for playable races and especially playable charr.

    Prom a purely aesthetic point of view i'm somewhat interested to see how they're going to combine armor upgrades with the fact that they are goddamn plants with leaves and everything growing out of them.
