EDIT: They just called me back. Damn, they don't do tours. They said I can go checkout the lobby if I wanted to though, haha.

    Most likely they wouldn't.

    I'd say the best place to get that answer would be ArenaNet.

    Give them a call first.  The studio I worked in would allow tours for people 18+ provided it was a slower day.

    If they allow you to drop by, make sure you bring picture as I'm sure there will be a NDA.

    You could hang around on the sidewalk outside their building with a camera, then take a lot of pictures and gush when an employee walks by.  You might get a pity "hello" or some brief conversation with someone on the dev team.  More likely you'll end up with a restraining order though, so it might be best to forget about it.  ;)

    I would stop by just to "check out the lobby"  taking some doughnuts or something as a gift, and then try and see if you can get some GW2 graft.  A pen, hat, shirt, receptionist's phone number, whatever.

    All of my posts are either intelligent, thought provoking, funny, satirical, sarcastic or intentionally disrespectful. Take your pick.

    I get banned in the forums for games I love, so lets see if I do better in the forums for games I hate.

    I enjoy the serenity of not caring what your opinion is.

    I don't hate much, but I hate Apple© with a passion. If Steve Jobs was alive, I would punch him in the face.

    Yeah I have a trip planned for PAX Prime, and emailed them asking about a tour of the studio. Unfortunately they said they were closed to the public but I'll see a lot of them at PAX anyway!

    I had been meaning to make a thread, and I still might, to take requests for PAX goers (I know myself and a few others from here are going). I might just hijack this one though.

    So, given that I have a friend who's going to be an enforcer @the ANet both and I have passes for the weekend, I'm going to camp at their booth. What to you guys want to know? I'm going to be kidnapping a friends video camera, so I can record and do some commentary if wanted, and who knows, maybe I can get some questions in with the devs..
