Played a good 6 hours straight and got to level 10 as ranger, loving it so far. room for lots of improvement but it's light years ahead of wow when that was released, very solid game though.

Was DC and lag free for most part today, done about 3 hours of engineer, also done an hour of the WvW PVP it was immense. Really cant wait for game now, I get the feeling it might actually live up to its hype.

I quite enjoyed this to start with, but got a bit bored after a while. I'm loving some of the little touches (like when you're crafting multiple items it speeds up the time to complete each one, so you're not waiting ages), but it kind of seems a bit too similar to most other MMO's without it's full PvP, which I'm dying to give a go.

It really is well put together though. The highlight for me being the soundtrack which is absolutely brilliant! I'm finding the targeting to be fairly sh*te though. You're standing in front of a guy who's hitting you, you hit TAB to target the nearest enemy, and it targets some passive animal standing nearby, and the two of them kick the crap out of you. This has happened more times than I'd like. I know it can be sorted by paying more attention to what is highlighted, but in the middle of a battle, it really should only target enemies.

Other than that, and a bit of difficulty logging in yesterday, I've had no problems at all.

One thing about server selection though, that I was wondering about. Can you only create characters on one server and then have to pay if you ever want them moved to another? Or can you create characters on various servers? Just wondering as I've friends in Europe and the US, so was wondering if I'd have to pick one or the other.

I'm loving it so far, and have only had time for about 6 hours play. Norn Guardian ftw!

Great weekend, cant wait for the next bwe and the release. Final thing me and my mate did was jump off the bridge in lions arch and unexpectedly found the massive underwater reef and spent the next twenty minutes exploring that which i think is a pretty good example of how most of my playtime went this weekend

Tab isn't target nearest enemy, it targets an enemy in a direct line in front of you from where you are facing and then tabs through all targets in a list from that point. You can rebind a key for target nearest target. It's the same system as Guild Wars 1 uses and can be a little frustrating to get to terms with until you are used to it.

Well, that's that, an hour before the servers closed, there was an announcement for an end game event, which basically turned out to be a massive Norn Hunt, with all those harmless creatures like rats and raccoons being made super powerful. And it ended with everyone having to fight a near indestructible White Rabbit. Would have preferred if we were all blown up somehow, but a Monty Python reference is a good way to end it too.

Ah, that explains it. Of course, it's too late now for me to try it. DAMN!!!!
