I got the CE as well, mostly for the prints (though I am happy about the music CD as well).
However, I don't have any interest in the Rytlock Brimstone miniature, so if anyone here wants it, then once the game has been released you can just contact me and we'll work out how to get it sent to you.

If I werent saving to move out this would have been the first and only MMO CE version I bought. I wish there was a version that JUST had the art book and the game.

I'm unmarried and can therefore make my house into a sad otaku shrine so sure, if someone doesn't want their big nerdy charr statue I'll pay you to ship it to me rather than toss it in the trash. I will let him fight it out with my 20th anniversary Optimus Prime on my bookshelf.

I picked up the CE when I saw that Zavvi (the UK retailer) kept saying it was out of stock. I haven't decided yet whether I'm going to keep it, sell parts or just sell the whole thing.

Are people who didn't pre-purchase but signed up for beta still in the running for these weekend test pools? Or should I stop refreshing my email now?

You give them to me.  Don't open them, they're actually worth more to people unopened. |

Everyone who pre-purchased gets to play, thats going to be a lot of people. Glad to see the NDA wont be up for that weekend, these guys are doing shit right. Million dollar question though is how far from launch is it? I plan to put plenty of time in that weekend :)

Latest guess and retail websites are saying August, ArenaNet are saying "when it's ready".
I'd been wondering if it was really ethical to have an NDA for something that is pre-purchased, but I'm happy to see them make that consideration even less worth considering.
Looking forward to it.

Perhaps they read schild's post on the Funcom NDA/pre-puchased topic and thought better of it... edit to add: I will not ruin my experience buy playing the beta as I did with other games...

I almost feel obliged too... otherwise why the heck did I give them money for a game months away?

Yeah, even without the factor of money being tight right now....pre-purchase an mmo? That's pretty crazy. FYI, you can pre-order from Amazon, but since it's not a pre-purchase, no beta for you. |

Nebu, wait a week. Then you get a massive information dump from all the beta impressions and can decide then. Yeah, even without the factor of money being tight right now....pre-purchase an mmo? That's pretty crazy.
I've been told many times that GW isn't an MMO... so it's okay, right?  |
Hahahaha! I'm really good at this!

I liked Vanguard, WAR, DAoC, and ATitD. Do you think anything I read here will dissuade me from buying this at release? |

If you're going to get it at release, you might as well put your money down now, then. See you in-game next week with the rest of us! |

I think someone could go into the future, produce proof that you hated every minute playing it, show you said proof, and you'd still buy it and max 4 characters before most people max 1. |

Because I, like you, are holding out for that 1 game that might actually not f*ck up their sh*t and playing beta will be a worthwhile endeavour. At the same time faeries and unicorns will fly out of my butt |

I really hate that you're right. Let's be fair though. I love these games. I just get frustrated with them because many (Rift, SWTOR, WAR) were very close to being the game I want to play, but just missed the mark. I'm finding the current MMOs to be a complete tease in this regard. I don't think I'm alone either. My guild usually leaves these games before I do... so the feeling isn't just mine. |
