Guild Wars Factions Preview was HUGE!

From 12:01 AM on Friday, March 24 until 11:59 PM on March 26, there was a preview to play the new expansion for Guild Wars, Guild Wars: Factions

The turn out was huge.  During this short time 500,000 players
participated in more than 3,000,000 of totaled play time.  This is one
of the biggest previews ever conducted.  On April 28, 2006 Guild Wars: Factions
will be released at retailers for $49.99.  "We knew that by focusing on
new ways to play and new things to do within the game, such as the
12x12 Alliance Battles, which were extremely popular with both PvP and
role playing gamers, that fans would respond enthusiastically," says
Jeff Strain, co-founder of ArenaNet. "This weekend reinforced that we
are on the right track with Guild Wars Factions and are making a game that rises to the challenge to be innovative and ever-compelling for its fans."

starting a new journey may not be so hard,
or maybe it has already begun.
There are many worlds,
but they share the same sky --- one sky, one destiny.

    I like how both factions names have been designed to be easily insulted.  Luxons = Suxons Kurzicks = Welll you can guess.

    Yes It was a great beta event but the real factions will be better with more content in both Pvp and Pve...so I'm looking forward to Factions...
    The quests annoyed me though just seemed to take to long but I guess a challenge is good...stupid Black Moa Bird quest....

    most people say pve is easy , i think this is the revenge of pve , now the quests are hard and long

    actualy i think they should be even more hard

    they are long becose you didnt find the fast way to do them yet , with time they get shorter and shorter

    just like the new tomb , my longest run was 5 hours , now people do it for 45 minutes.
