They say that a picture speaks a thousand words. If that's true then the latest image from Arena.Net and the Guild Wars 2 team says it all.

    Problem is we've jacked the jargon.

    Server = physical machine that houses the data that you access

    Shard/Realm = What most people call a "server"

    Even EVE has multiple servers, I'm sure.

    Sig so that badges don't eat my posts.

    Sorry but that doesn't tell me they are ready for BWE #2 and if this is all they got to give me I would say they are not ready for BWE #2 and they are a long ways from launch. I need more concrete information than a stupid picture.

    I saw a list of fixes to be patched in for next BWE I THINK it was on their blog or on the forums.  You'll have to hunt it down though because I have no idea what the link might have been.  I linked to it from Twitter, if I remember correctly.  It was a tiny pic that when you clicked on it you had to click again to enlarge to full size.  You couldn't read the small version.  Ringin' a bell to anyone?  Anyone know the linky?

    I know, it's hard to imagine some of these people even enjoying games. 

    Plus, even the slightest bit of research reveals it's clearly not the only difference we'll see from the last BWE.

    There were indeed leaked patchnotes in picture format but I'm not gonna link to them because a leak's a leak and shouldn't have become public. If inclined google does the trick.

    There were quite a few evident changes in the Gandarran Fields Demo, new UI and keybind options and alterations to the trait and skill system (now tiered) are some that come to mind, but they haven't publicly released any official patch notes for the new build.

    I'm sorry, but if you coulden't take the picture as a little humor or tongue and cheek then you must be exceptionally square.

    I would say I will take the guild wars teams expertise over your expertise about the status of their server(s).

    The number of instances of the game and the number of physical servers have nothing to do with each other, it is commonly refered to that way to simplify the issue for the average person.

    I hope they fix their forums so people can, you know, actually talk on them and communicate. I'ma  real forums junkie so that would make me happy! But awesome job making it ready for more people ArenaNet! Keep up the super work =)

    Wow, awesome news.  Maybe now there won't be so many people crowded into an area and getting separated in overflow servers.  I'm excited, and to the naysayers I say, whatever.

  • WorstluckWorstluck Member Posts: 1,269

    That's good news.  This will be my first beta weekend, I think I have broken down and will be buying the game this week.  I hope they have room for me :D

    Working for Anet must be so much fun ;-; they're always in such good spirits. Although the one dev tattooing the GW2 Logo on his ribcage might've been a bit much. But hey, dedication. Anyway love the humor and am soooo psyched for the next weekend with double the server strength. I lagged the first weekend but even that lag wasn't so bad that I couldn't function, hopefully this will eliminate it all together.
