Level cap is 80, that will have been in WvW, where the stats are scaled to level 80.

Fab thankyou!

It's a valid point, however for me it's worth getting the £50 version direct from ANet, I like the money going straight to them for one, also I don't think the value of the 3 day headstart is that bad personally. Especially when you consider the first days of an MMO are often some of the best days you can have!

Also it's a bank holiday Monday which is doubly awesome!

Indeed. Unfortunately* I'm getting married this weekend.




I say unfortunately merely because of the clash of timing. I am of course most fortunate .

don't quote competitor link

2 other websites game , zavvi have it for 35

theres no pre order headstart anymore unless you buy it direct from arenanet for £50

Woah...there is a massive patch gone live on the client...into the gigabytes i think! 4700 files.

Just a heads up!

EDIT - Looks as though it may be the full release candidate for the game downloading! Anyone remember how many files it was before?

You will be disappointed!

It's a 500mb patch with the largest file being the first one making it hang at 1% for ages to seem like the patch is huge...

I wasn't going to get this as I 'had finished with mmo's'...who I am kidding, I can't wait lol!!

Oh good!

I'm stuck on 0%!

EDIT - Just got to 1% at 270mb...it's flying up now luckily!

Quick question. I've ordered a physical copy. Can I register the serial to an account and then download rather than install from dvd?

Yeah, but I bet you'll always remember your wedding day as the day you missed the GW2 launch

i just preordered with game maybe they are still doing the bonus headstart as the TOS says
Your bonus item will be emailed to you on 24/08/12 giving you time to download the game client before early access starts.

They are talking about the 1 day pre-order bonus selected retailers are doing. The game pre-order will give you access on the 27th.

It's not looking like Nvidia is going to have their drivers ready for release, they have apparently delayed them to fix Borderlands 2 issues, which isn't even released until September.

Drivers seem to make a pretty huge difference too for Nvidia cards.
