in Guild Wars 2
BWE has been up for 2+ hours so far. How far did you get? I managed to select my server, create a character and got to see the character selection screen. Still no luck getting in. How about you?

Lucky bastard....
this X10 times... still trying... EU player here..
I have been kicked out 3 times now.
Been stuck in log in room with my 2 different chars for 2 different servers 6 times.
Been in stuck that black screen after my initial storyline finishes 3 times.
So I have been restarting my computer for GW2 jamming it during the first 2 hours for 9 times and I haven't even been maniacly putting pressure on getting in the game.
But, I was promised access in beta for prepurchase!
They should have sold out digital edition(access the beta) a lot earlier.
Sigh!
Played for about 15 mins, Then got booted out, Been trying to login for the past 2 hours now.
Going better than expected.
Made 2 chars and level to 4.
Was exploring LA when the game crashed and I can't back in.
played for an hour on my human mesmer for to the point of the story where all the heart quests were available, which is fairly early in the game, i spent most of the time wandering around taking in the sites, even with the laggy fps problems, still was cool to explore.. logged off to create a human ele, been waiting ever since. I keep getting the operation error message thingy "unable to complete operation" been like that for an hour so far
Charr engineer lvl 8. Tried to enter the mysts and can no longer log in =(. Probably for the best, I have some errands I need to run, lol.
I think they upped the difficulty on some of the mobs (either that, or most people are just really bad atm). There was quite a few events where we were getting facerolled by the elites, lol.
Tried to explore a bit, but there's a lot of outposts & such that are overrun by elite bosses. It's going to take a lot more than a few char to take those back, lol.
Seems a bit silly that a lot of people think that everything should run smoothly and all. T took a look at the server screen and nearly every server in Europe was "High". Like others said, it seems like ArenaNet is testing the server capacity and all. Would have been nice if they told what their plan was for this weekend though. My shitty computer combined with the sluggish server response is not a fun experience. When everything is running as it should, Guild Wars 2 is fun to play.
I got a Norn Elementalist on level 5, did some heart quest and one dynamic event chain with him. Only one elite at the end, which we stomped. Difficulty is higher then I expected though. I died several times already. I have a Human Thief at level 4. He is more fun then I expected. All in all, I have done some heart quests, a bit of exploring and some daily achievements.
Not much playtime because I was working til past midnight my time - created a character, did 1 DE and 3 Heart quests, and ran around an awful lot exploring. Had my butt handed to me on a skill quest but otherwise fine.
Probably tiredness talking but I kept getting confused with area triggers that made quests vanish from my screen when I ran out of the area for them. I probably shouldn't start playing games when I'm tired!
I'll have more time to play on Sunday, so I think I'll try to resist playing any more for now.
The world is very pretty, and the graphics are nice. Lag makes combat a bit tricky, but that's to be expected. Nowhere near enough time in-game to form an opinion one way or another.
I got past the black screen after char creation and intro by alt-f4-ing and logging in again.
Gonna get some sleep now, more work tomorrow
I have jumped off of the high dive board in Lions Arch.
Its pretty amazing that there is this game that cost me no more than a single player rpg that has alot of cool stuff to do and I can play with other people to boot.I have no regrets,my money was well spent.
