    Argh.  I didn't prepurchase until after the last BWE.  I haven't spent even a second playing the game.  I think I should just hold out until the 25th.

    Good move, have that totally new fresh feeling :)

    I've played em all so this one will be more about getting the look of a character just right, my old mangy Charr for one :)

    I keep picking a home world, and it keeps telling me do you wanna switch to his home world and that I would have to stay there permanentely but it says America and I'm in America. ....then it disconnects me. lols

     

    Also it keeps wanting to validate my email address but its not sending it through email.

    Worked for me.  But my brother came late and couldn't get onto the server, so I stopped playing.  I just wanted a taste of things.  Pretty fun, though it takes a while to get weapon skills unlocked.

    I would say they increased the speed at which weapon skills unlocked by a huge amount for this test.  Was shockingly fast compared to previous builds I thought.

    It worked, since I hadn't replied since my last post as I was in-game, lol. The fix was to use the forgot password link to go around the logjam they had created. even then once made a new PW it still hit a stress wall, but the login worked fine on the second attempt.

    created a bit of panic, but then had to remind myself, it's a stress test (on all sides!)

     

    game ran so smooth, yes weapon skills went much faster, which was awesome to see, I think as a new guardian i must have maxed at least 10 combinations of weaps, maybe more, and wow what a multitude of abilities guardian has!

    no lag whatsoever, tons of folk everywhere, DEs lighting up all over, it was very fun insanity on Charr side, and of course being Charr everywhere helped the insanity just a tad.

    Stress test just got finished.

    They extended it 2 hours to make it 6 hours total (ended 6PM PST).

    Was a nice surprise.

    Thanks Anet!

    I actually yelled in frustration when it went down.  Not because I didn't know it was going down, but because I was in the thick of sPVP and was having a BLAST!  /sigh

    And now withdrawal kicks in....

    ArenaNet actually extended it from 12pm to 6pm for testing purposes. =]

    very nice. I really got to get in to it. The combat is a little chaotic but fun. The crafting seems very slow. I'll have to see how that plays out. Bag space was for sure a problem. I hope there will be some more bag drops.
