After seven years, it is finally nearly upon us.  Anyone getting last minute jitters?  Almost feel like I am getting married again.

    Only jitters im getting atm (after that stress test) are "how the hell are they gonna fix this in time for release"... honestly, class "balance" is way below 'acceptable' at this point.

    how so? obviously any new game is going to have balance issues but honestly have seen very little chatter about this compared to other MMOs

    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

    1. Camera is annoying I like beeing able to zoom in and out at any incriment yet this one does it in "steps"

    2. AA support i like being able to use external forms of AA like sgssaa or even simple TrAA

    3. Some inconsistant textures especially with ground textures.

    4. Movement is a little "floaty" but over all not bad but could use a little work

    5. No way to turn names on for people in your party only. I like being able to see the names over peoples heads of only my party memebers.

     

     

    I got more but you asked for 5

    Class balance was one of the things I mentioned in my review of the beta clients.  I don't know if I'd call it unacceptable, but it's certainly not optimal.

    This being ANet, however, I know the problems will be fixed pretty quick.

    Six months ago, "This being Anet" meant the problems would be fixed before launch.
    Just sayin' ;)

    I'm definetely sold on the game too, if I had my wish I would see:

    The portals removed between zones, but unlikely the engine can handle it

    Remove the teleporters (quick travel)

    Add zone binds

    Add mounts (not flying)

    Add world PvP

    But man I cant wait to jump in as is.

    1.  Love the combat and combat sounds (except ranger a little weak)

    2.  Love character movement

    3.  Love the public quests

    4.  Love what they are doing with the siege system

    5.  Love the cut scenes and stories

    enjoyed the stress test tonite and looking forward to playing gw2 but got to agree class balance and game/graphics performance need work.

    yes that would be awsome if it was just a huge seamless world. Loading screens are short but would of prefered it to be seamless.

    Excited but not hyped.....I've learned to never get hyped again after AoC and WAR....saved me $60 with TOR and will make GW2 enjoyable at launch even with some performance problems.
