    I want so badly to watch the video, but I also want something to be a surprise for release.  I pre-ordered this and participated in the last 2 beta events.  I can't wait to see the Asure and Sylvari, but if my willpower holds up, I will see it on release.  Thanks for sharing the info though, glad that they are starting to release more and more stuff about the game.  Really excited for this!

  • Nice video.  They pretty much jump through the Asuran Starter map (not all of it) and show a bit of the 15-25 zone.

     

    EDIT:  Be warned though part of what they go through is several steps of the Asuran Personal Story.

     

    One very interesting new addition - Vistas - along with Points of Interests and Waypoints and Skill Challenges and Hearts -  need to be discovered to complete maps.

    Love the vista additions. More jumping puzzles FTW! Will most likely mess around in the new zones if they are available for BWE3. Maybe I will be changing my race/class combo if I enjoy it :)

    Woah, thanks. Now I have something to do for the next hour.

    +1 for helping me waste my day. Not sarcasm.

    I'm liking the "Deposit ALL Collectibles" option, in addition to the regular old "Deposit Collectibles" option.  One click (well technically two) and it will instantly clean up all your bags of crafting mats...

    Is it just me, or is that Asura's eyelids extremely fat? It looks like Rocky after a bout with Dolph Lundgren.

    ha! i agree I never cared for their look though.. sure many people will play them, especially in PVP but the race just has no appeal to me.. all the others are great though:)

    I angered the clerk in a clothing shop today. She asked me what size I was and I said actual, because I am not to scale. I like vending machines 'cause snacks are better when they fall. If I buy a candy bar at a store, oftentimes, I will drop it... so that it achieves its maximum flavor potential. --Mitch Hedberg

    Oh, they put in a "deposit all collectables" option.

    Locative Science, it's a thing.

    Easily looks as polished as anything I've seen.  Thanks for the link.

    Important things to get out of the video:

    1) "So you have an upcoming beta in which the asura are going to be a playable race?" -"yep." (confirmed! Asura in the next beta)

    2) New Vistas to explore

    3) Completely revamped traits, and balancing.

    Very exciting indeed. Thanks for the link!

    Omg, those jumping puzzles high in the air! Amazing :D

  • SiphaedSiphaed Member RarePosts: 1,114

    Love the new jumping puzzles.  Basic ones at the start are indeed basic, but those advanced ones are sweet.  Maybe more further in the game they'll have traps and what not similar to the Wx3 dungeon in Eternal Battlegrounds.

     

    Really wish that the guy did both Male and Female character creation, instead of just one-sided.  Alas, I'll be playing much with the character creator during next next weekend so to figure out the most appealing build.

    Get out!  That is awesome.

    BOOYAKA!

  • alvaruzalvaruz Member UncommonPosts: 24

    Do we have a video like this, but for the Sylvari too?

  • NanfoodleNanfoodle Member LegendaryPosts: 10,901

    Looks awesome but also lots of bugs. They gona need to step on the polish.

  • Zeus.CMZeus.CM Member, Newbie CommonPosts: 1,788

    Everyone hated GW for not having jumping at all, and now GW2 has more jumping than any mmo ever had!

  • KalmporosKalmporos Member UncommonPosts: 293

    Nice vid. 

    The Asura area seemed a little buggy to me tbh :s

    Vistas, the Asura jump puzzle and deposit all collectibles are awesome though!

    But damn it, the moment he started talking about Mesmer clones something happened in game and we ended up having no information on what they changed. I guess I'll have to wait 10 days to see what they did.
