    Spinning grey circle for the last 15 mins. From the facebook page, it seems to be a bit of a lottery whether you get in or not.

    That was fun. Spent the hour trying to get to Orr, and died about 50 times :P

    Just ended, had great fun.

    Played warrior for a while which I enjoyed. Then tried mesmer for the last 15 mins, didn't really understand what was going on though.

    Didn't seem as smooth as last time, and all preferences were reset, as well as characters.

    Still enjoyed it a lot!

    I got shield bash as a 4th skill IIRC, not sure there is a specific 'block' button

    Was on facebook page

    Think there's just the dodge mechanic. Wasn't able to block in the few minutes that i played just there and i've never heard of it outside of skills. Thought that was kinda fun :)

    So is it just the starting areas that'll be so packed with people? And will you be able to play this with a controller? Prefer controller/keyboard to keyboard/mouse meself.

    you wont be able to log in until they put the servers back up, unless they have another stress test tomorrow, that wont be until 8am Friday!! (they have said they are opening servers 3 hours early though, im not sure if this will be for small groups of people at a time). Anyway your password is fine, none of us can log in till then :)

    I can't login to the website either. So, I wouldn't worry about it. Just try it later.

    ok but do I have to register my serial code for the head start?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,191 ✭✭✭uncle_sam_ie


    They're probably running tests on the website's authenticator system. Just try and register it tomorrow.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,405 ✭✭✭Lone Stone


    Yea i usually never have any issues logging in but cant log in tonight, wouldnt worry to much about it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 66 ✭✭Toom3y7

    This is from greenmangaming.
    Just to be clear folks and for those who havent read the last page or so :) , i was talking about if you bought from greenmangaming not direct from arenanet, it was in reference to greenmangaming where i bought it from at a discount price.

    My bad Dcully! Had started to ponder about what I was going to do this weekend if I couldnt get access when I read your post!

    You want to play it with a controller??? :eek:

    Is this your first MMO? If you do attempt to play it with a controller you will be at a MASSIVE disadvantage to everyone else and I can't see you getting anywhere in PvP and dying alot in normal pve.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,306 ✭✭✭ArthurG


    FFXI was playable with a controller, and a lot of the people I played with used one, so it's possible. However I agree, I doubt this has been designed with such a control system in mind.

    only to be expected but a few on the gw 2 reddits forum are see a increase in "scam/phishing" emails for gw2 pass codes,just be careful out there...so far theres a email/steam messaging going around offering a free ""Hey Guild Wars 2 players! Unlock one free dungeon armor set for your character!""

    http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/yppxt/someone_tried_to_steal_my_gw2_account_during/http://

    the fake site cover....looks good....would you fall for it???
