1 hour stress test sunday 2-3pm. If anyone is interested I will be playing on sorrows furnace for the remainder of the beta time. However, after beta is over we will be re-rolling on another server~

Man, they're really going nuts with these stress tests.

Yea, and after looking again its 1-2pm not 2-3!

Anyways i'm going to use the time to jump right into WvW.

I figure they will keep on doing stress tests up until maybe a week or few days before launch. They know that the d3 launch is what players are dreading, and will be a marketing nightmare for them unless everything goes smoothly.

Updated server for launch for me and my guild Arcanix at www.alttabme.com - Jade Quarry

I got in on the Friday test for awhile and home long enough to get in about 15 mins for this stress test. I think Anet has paid attention to the problems with D3 and are testing as much as possible before release. Can't wait for the official release though, not far down the line.

I take it back.. no longer rolling on jade quarry. - We have decided to do a different server, and not publicizing it. Would still like CPers to play w/me!

Found this little tidbit...

When Guild Wars 2 launches, you will also have the option to play with your friends on another world with our free “guesting” feature. With guesting, your characters can play on any world where you have friends—with certain restrictions. For instance, you will not be able to participate in WvW while guesting.
So no matter what world we choose we'll at least be able to PvE together, no PvP though.

Yea when you are guesting you can still gain exp for yourself etc but you cant gain any guild influence.

Yep, that's what I saw too.

Another stress test tommorrow. Also they announced they are going to open the servers 3 hours early for headstart, so 12pm EST rather than 12pm PST

Hmmm 1pm CST for me. I'm supposed to have tomorrow off but offered to work morning deliveries since my boss has strep throat. He usually does Weds deliveries. I hope to be home by the start of the test.

I really enjoyed the Mesmer I created last test, I'd like to see how much further I can get into the class to see what more it has to offer.

I'll probably spend a chunk of the time in the character creator, as my main will be a Sylvari and they have such a huge variety of options. Wouldn't want my character to look like ass when the game comes out.

I know you can join multiple guilds. I had thought you could switch your active guild or whatever it's called and get guild influence for the server you're on -- is that not how it works?

Your right in a way. yes you can join multiple guilds, yes you can switch the guild your repping for influence to said guild.

However, when your guesting on other peoples servers you will NOT gain influence. You can only gain influence by playing on your 'home' server.

Wow 11k files to download on the client. I hope I can get it done and still get in to help stress test a little.
