Yes, headstart gives us the edge in choosing servers, toon names all before those that get the "box" edition on Tues.

Everything done through beta is now wiped and we start afresh early Sat.

With the newest drivers/engine changes I am not even keeping a steady 60 in heavy traffic areas, (WvW with LOTS of physics and stuff going on) and thats with the newest 6 core oced @ 4.8ghz and a single gtx 670 oced.

At that resolution you better be at the very least dual graphics or more :P

Intel Core i7 920
6gb Memory
ATi 6870HD video card

nary a problem. :D

Not sure what the problem is then.. my processor and graphics card are twice as good.. are you running ultra high settings w/ supersampling? Im maxed out nearly all the time except in WvW fighting at walls with 100+ people running around and all the physics that go with it. Should still be maxed out in my mind. Maybe its the drivers.

As for head start, be at your computer at 11pm CST friday night if you want to get in and get your name reserved, Headstart was originally slated for 2am CST but they mentioned that they may open it up 3 hours prior at 11pm. gogogogo!

I'm considering this but I'm not sure.

hometeam 08-22-2012 03:26 PM

All i know is that myself and sonofabier will be rolling there (provided he gets accepted into my guild)

Other than that, some of the other major groups on Yaks bend will include the gw2guru guild, and the gamebreaker.tv guild

Again, server transfers will be free at first, so if you cant get on yaks bend, or dont like it, you can move to or from at will in the first few days/weeks of launch.

Whelp, I got accepted. I chatted with some people on the Mumble server, and they seem like a pretty cool gang. Looking forward to launch.

I like that's it's a one-time outlay. Not home enough for paying the monthly fee.

Yeap.

hometeam 08-22-2012 08:45 PM

Monthly fees are already pretty much gone. GW2 will be the nail in the coffin they need.

hometeam 08-22-2012 09:28 PM

Guildwars 2 currently occupies 4 out of the top 5 slots of Amazon gaming. This is going to be so huge.

Setsuna 08-22-2012 09:36 PM

Hmmmm...how much is it out of the gate? $60?

hometeam 08-22-2012 11:13 PM

60 bucks but there have been a ton of pre-order sales around 45-50$ from 3rd party sellers. Just had a 1 hour stress test impromptu.. i saw canofbier~
