Guild Wars 2 Release Night!

695 weeks ago

So in about a week from now, we will all finally get what we have been waiting so long for. What are everyone's plans for Friday night / Saturday morning? When do you plan on first being able to log into the real game and what do you want to do first?

Personally, I will definitely be on early, trying to figure out what server has room etc for the guild. Then I'll probably make a character, try out some PvP skills, look at changes, and then do a good mix of PvE and PvP.

Probably make a few characters to reserve names, then level in PvE a bit. I'll probably hop in the mists too, to check on changes.

Unfortunately my time on the head-start will be limited, but I will definitely try to get my hands on the game friday night.

Like Prox, create some characters that I intend to play on both PvE and PvP and then enjoy the game a little bit with whatever everyone will be doing. I'll try to balance both pve and pvp and get to play with some of our new members that I have yet to have the pleasure of playing with.

My plan will be to log in and reserve my names. Ele, Warrior, Mes, Ranger, ????. Then I will show my brother the PvE of the game for 30-1hr. Then I'll show him sPvP to try and get him to play. I will not be pulling an all nighter though. Got stuff to do the next day. I pulled an all nighter for D3 and that game sucked ;(

Don't forget that the servers may be brought up 3 hours before launch (as they have been also doing for the BWEs).

Pre-Purchase with 3-Day Headstart: Everyone who pre-purchased Guild Wars 2 will enjoy three full days of Headstart Access. The three-day Headstart Access will officially begin at 0:00 AM Pacific time (GMT -7:00) on August 25th. However, please note that in order to ensure that we’re fully prepared for that fateful hour we may bring servers online up to 3 hours prior. If you’re a player committed to getting in first to grab that character name of your dreams you’ll want to be keeping an eye on things during that time period.

It is likely that they will bring up the servers early so that there is not a huge simultaneous rush on the login servers and so that any issues with login can be fixed before the official headstart.

After saving names etc., I will probably do mostly PVE, I won't be staying up all night either.

I'm going to reserve names then hop into pvp for a bit. Probably by the time I'm done with that I'll be going to bed.

Let me know if you are willing to make 1 character with one of those names, thanks!
