GuildCast 37: Epic Dance Moves

The three little words that Guild Wars 2 fans are happy to hear: "Two more days." Amazingly, this is the very final GuildCast... before launch -- sorry couldn't resist -- and there's plenty to chew on. A mighty six hour stress test went on yesterday. The two hour extension being a pleasant bonus for many, particularly as there was a bunch of new stuff to play around with. How did your stress test go? Players everywhere became dancing, dancing, dancing machines with the new emotes. From the Haka ...

GuildCast 35: ArenaNet's Guild Wars 2 Brings More Stress

Stress, stress, stress. That's probably how you're feeling as the countdown to the Guild Wars 2 headstart continues inexorably. It's also apparent that ArenaNet needs to apply the pressure to the servers with the stress tests lately. One last week, another tomorrow, can we take any more of it? Deep breaths. Mike Zadorojny spoke to GameTrailers about the Fields of Ruin. This area is seeped in lore due to the history of the Ebonhawke through Guild Wars and GW2. We talk about just why this place is...

GuildCast EP34 Ponders Guild Wars 2 Dynamic Combat Model And Unseen Content

It looks like we'll get a sweet slice of Tyria early. ArenaNet announced that there will be another stress test for Guild Wars 2 on August 2 -- I hope you didn't miss it. In other news, the fabulously named Mike Zadorojny has been answering questions about the content that so many are waiting to get their hands on with abandon in just a few weeks. Just what does he mean by "mini-dungeons?" It also seems that the much anticipated water-themed fourth sPvP map is not as definite as we may have thou...

GuildCast 32: ArenaNet's Guild Wars 2 Gets Legendary

It's so close you can touch it, smell it and generally dribble over it. The Guild Wars 2 BWE3 hits this weekend, the final dash of content, the last appetizer before we get the full meal of launch -- OK now I'm hungry. ArenaNet released more details about what we can expect this weekend, so not only will Rata Sum and The Grove be inundated with wide eyed players, there are also other fresh reasons to go romping through Tyria. We take a look at where we all might be bumping into each other. Who a...

GuildCast 30: ArenaNet's Gives Guild Wars 2 Official Launch Date

Call your doctor, book the babysitter and stock up on snacks. The official launch date for Guild Wars 2 was announced! When the initial jump up and down joy of the date subsided, there's some rather tremendous stuff to see in that teaser trailer, what grabbed your attention? With only one BWE to go, could we see the Asura and Sylvari? Could ArenaNet be crazy/gutsy enough to keep something back for launch, or would it just cause a massive headache? We discuss the possibilities. Jon Peters and Eri...
