Anyone else been playing the guild wars free weekend, I was wondering what you thought. I had fun for 2 days, then it kind of ended and went to playing deathmatch against other players which wasn't that great IMO. It ends today, was surprised nobody posted about it here yet unless I missed it.

I actually enjoyed the game quite a bit. The pvp was great. My guild was at the clan hall battling other clans pretty much all day today, which was a blast. The other two forms of pvp were pretty sweet too. The gladiator arena was great IMO because you could just log on and fight for two minutes, and not have to have any hassle. My longest stretch of wins in the glad arena was 11. One problem I forsee with the game is balance. Warrior / Monks are severely overpowered, and pretty much half the people in the game were that combo. I could still take them though, because I had top notch armor and a kickin weapon (hammer 11 - 18 dmg) as pretty much a pure warrior.

i loved the gfx but didn't like the face that its like diablo 2 with better gfx. and with less ppl per game. 6 instead of 8.

I'll definitely buy it when it comes out... although I may make a new character unless they seriously change the balance and under-power the Warrior/Monk combo a little more. My Ranger/Elementalist was getting pwnt in te PVP arena and the guild matches. I had a ton of fun though... didn't get a chance to play as much as I wanted to. Looking forward to its release in Feb 05. :D
I don't think I will be getting it if the level caps stays 20 and you can't bring your own team into a pvp arena. My lvl 19 warrior/necro was constantly being grouped with lvl 15' and 16's that would get owned much quicker then a lvl 19 or 20. I was hoping for more but what can I say since it's subsciption free.

If you could control the character in this game as in Max Payne then I would enjoy it even more. I dont like comming to a somewhat steep slope and not being able to slide down it since its 3d. It plays very much like a typical hack and slash 2d game.
Loved It. There is going to be some serious time blown on this one. It needs to be a little more customizable though. I want to be able to move windows around, i.e. status, item, etc. I would like some character actions like sitting or waving or something. Also, I never could find anywhere to buy a weapon without crafting one. The fact that you start at lvl 15 is cool. Overall, it is a beautiful, well-rounded game
When is the release date? .... cause I gotta take that week off work.

ya, I was an elementalist/warrior and that was probably why I didnt have much fun in the pyp, made level 20 and loved the team missions though, I would assume that level 20 cap was only for the demo, if not, it would get boring quick, definetely thinking of buying this one, anyone else know of any similar games to play now?

yea AFAIK, the starting at lvl 15 and stopping at 20 was for the demo so ppl could start off and nto have to screw around getting the frist few levels. And levels definatly mean something My part of 4 lvl 15/16 people got pwnt by one lvl 18 character constantly in PvP and i think necromancer needs more summoning and less debuff spells

it was alot better then the E3 beta event, prob because of the added tatorial. I loved the coop missions and the added henchmen to fill parties. i got to lvl 19 with a W/Mo. though i found it difficult to compare weapons based on the final damage and attack speed, as that was not calculated or written anywhere, like in Diablo II, it gives the final damage range after strangth, element damage,... and the weapon speed is written in the weapon discription.
I have already pre-ordered this game, and plan on buying it

If it's like D2 but with better graphics, I fail to see what is wrong with that... I'm interested.

I really liked it a lot. It's been a while since I've played a good RPG like this. If it's "like D2" then I'm sure I'll love it. ;)
Too bad we have to wait for February...
