Because this way you feel more "prestigious and elite" when you get in.
Game rolls solely on hype yo

Black did you get your key?

Black did you get your key?

Yeah, I did. I must witness GW1 -> GW2 decline with my own eyes.

 

[Angthoron]

Just remember to get some weapons other than default before you hit the battlegrounds.

 

[Black]

I do whatever I want!

 

[Cowboy Moment]

Acquired a key from some idiot on reddit. Time to check how badly overhyped it is.

 

[Mystary!]

Has everyone decided on server and main class already? What about a kodex kool krew?

 

[Hoaxmetal]

Kodex kool krew has/will have a guild on Desolation server. Playing guardian first probably, dunno which race yet.

Fuck, I keep missing out on these beta giveaways. Now I did the IGN thing and thought I got a key, but look what it gives me:

 

[Angthoron]

Looks like all previous character data will be wiped out prior to this week's BWE.

How do you install this shit ? When i run the setup it closes with a crash after few secs, probably some win 7 allowance shit.

 

[Angthoron]

Right-click the exe you download from the site, let it run As Administrator. That's p. much it. Check if your firewall or something is shutting it down.

Oh yeah, make sure there's enough space on that HDD - it downloads everything to the folder you have the .exe in. So if you try running it from desktop it might feel adverse to trying to facilitate a 26 gig file.

Dude, we are on codex and not on fuckin reddit or other shit.

Makes sense; a little (or big) push to get people to test in the new areas. Doesn't really matter to me, because I purposely didn't want to level my characters very high and visit too many areas past the starter zones.

Also, since they're adding a lot more players, WvW would be a slight turn-off for the new players because the earlier beta-ers have more traits, higher tiered skills, etc.

Not sure why I'm pointing this out. I'm getting into a habit of just explaining/analyzing things for no reason. Maybe I should rethink a PHD and being a professor...

How the fuck should I know where you stuff your .exe, you snake-molesting beagle-spanker?

 

[Berekän]

Dude, we are on codex and not on fuckin reddit or other shit.

Then you should figure out how to fucking install a game.

Got a key from the gamestar lottery, you still need one?

 

[Stabwound]

I do, if you could spare me one I'd really appreciate it. I'm trying to decide whether or not to buy this game, since I got burned out on GW1 after a while. PMing me it is probably the easiest solution. Thanks a lot!

Oh boy, massive starter area zerg again.

Hopefully most of it will be on the zones of the two new races.

 

[Stabwound]

fizzelopeguss hooked me up with a beta key, so big brofist to him. I can't believe the luck I've had trying to get a hold of one.

Euro master race I presume?

 

[Cowboy Moment]

It's because some unbros collect them so they can create "Post a haiku about GW2 and get a beta key" threads on reddit.

More like euro lag race, that server is always full. Also, guilds were wiped too.

 

[Stabwound]

Is there a guild on a NA server? I wouldn't mind playing on a EU server other than the fact that the schedules will be fucked up. Can you guest jump from NA -> EU server like you could in Guild Wars 1?

 

[Berekän]

Yeh, you can guest play in any server, the only limitation being that you can't participate in the WvW for that server. You can also belong to multiple guilds.
