I keep hearing stuff about having to pay £30 for something everything every six months. That true?

NO SUBSCRIPTION.

The game is 99% instanced? Well... less idiots that way, but would I really call that a MMORPG then?

It's a CORPG apparently. Forget what that means. A brand new genre.

Cooperative role playing game?

It might have been that, though I'm not sure that is new. The review I read said it was a CORPG, which is a new genre entirely?

If you guys are interested I started playing as Rhaegar Waynwood, feel free to whisper me anytime to join up for some bashing. So far I've only talked to Shamarah and met up with Branwyn and joined her guild.. the Rp is pretty much nonexistant in the cities but since the game is instanced you get the world to yourself (and your friends) most of the time.

EDIT: Would be really great to get a larger Lusternia guild on there.

Guild going around called: The Soulless Gods. That isn't any of you is it?
If it isn't, its a

Update on Green Griffons guild:

3 members now. 2 more officer spots.

Aiii now I want to start playing with other people, I don't want to ask the strangers in the game as they are all... strange. My character is Shou Zhu, whisper to me or something!! (however I'm sharing accounts with my brother and he is Kei Zhu). (ps what are all these focus items for? There are so many but with my ranger I can't find out how to use them)

YOu equip them in the shield thing for + whatever.

I started over in my character, I'm now level 9 N/W.

I'm Daganev Treeripper in game. surprise surprise atleast I am for now.

The guildwars booth at E3 was awesome, got to watch the dev team kick A, against the top 100 guilds. Well atleast the morning dev team, the afternoon dev team wasn't so good

They discussed some tactics also which was fun.

oh and focus items are to help you gain more energy, something thats only usefull if you have a free hand to use it on. ie. no shield or staff

A shield replacement, but better.

Yeah, I got the game the day it came out... it's great. My two characters are Kheera Sulyn, a R/Mo, and Rhyka Ne Dryn, a N/Me. I -love- the N/Me combo - easy to heal, and most of the healing skills do damage too!

By the way, they said at E3 that you don't have to buy th game in a store, you can just download the installer client and buy an online license.

I ordered guild wars about 2 weeks ago and it still hasn't arrived

I would be ringing up and finding out what is going on if I were you.

Got it. It's excellent, though I'm just past the newbie bit. BUt my pc only has 256mb ram and my lag is appalling. And I got HL2/CSS and the damn store gave me a copy of which the game key code things were already in use.

Here have a cookie. *cookie picture*

Guild capes over a ranger's vest are HEE DEE OUS.

Whee!

I beat the last mission
