in Guild Wars 2
I honestly can't wait for GW2. I loved GW and I have a big feeling GW2 is going to be just as awesome. After watching the trailer I was like this 
lol. I'm so excited, I'm dying to see some info. on their combat system though.
We're all Geniuses. Most of us just don't know it.

From what I have read the combat system will be very similar to Guild Wars with more freedom of movement.
Also they are using the havok physics engine, can't wait.
@ OP Chronomancer :^)
@ Arenasb
How can you say this?! ANET hasnt even reveled the New Combat Mechanics yet.
Wow I didn't know they were using Havok. Can anyone confirm this, I mean I know it may be logical, but even so I didn't think they had said anything about that. Well Dx11 Cards have come out like the XD 5870 so I wonder if they are going to be using 11. Anyways, graphics aside, let's hope it plays well.
It's in this Q & A interview with Anets Mike OBrien, Daniel Dociu, and Jeff Grub.

It's towards the bottom of the interview. Here is a quote from it.
ZAM: One last thing; you mentioned the new engine, which I've been meaning to ask about. What does it allow, in terms of physics and movable objects, and all that crazy stuff that you see in these next-gen games?
Jeff: It's a full 3-D engine; its running Havoc on the client and the server...
ZAM: Destructible items, objects, waterfalls that distort your vision?
Jeff: All that; yep...
Lol, I get reminded of that old Southpark episode where Cartman freezes himself because he can't wait for the Wii to come out.
I can relate, I also want this game now.
Wow, cheers arena for that link. I'm going to read up some more on the Havok engine.
