GW2 beta plans
« on: April 20, 2012, 10:05:17 AM »
 I just wanted to see what every one will be doing in the beta. I will be doing PvE up to lvl 10 or so, and then I will be jumping into the mist only to come out for some crafting (or if some one in the guild needs help with PvE). I may give the Structured  PvP a try, but only if I can get a full guild group going. But I do think most of my time will be spent in WvWvW.

I also plan to spend a few lvls doing pve, then going for the mists once I am a bit more secure bout my key mapping and dodge mechanics. I'll try to help with structured if there is an open spot on a guild team. I'm not sure ill get to crafting, unless crafting mats will drop in WvW as well.

I'll be doing a lot of the one thing I don't plan to do at all live - structured PvP.  It's the only place you can see all of a profession's skills and get a chance to see how your character will play at end cap in the short window we'll have in beta weekends.

When I'm certain Ive made the decisions I want for live, then I'll probably spend a lot of time in WvW, though I may do some PvE too just to check it out.
Joe is absolutely correct. 

All right, if your mom asks, you tell her I read you the riot act
and I took away your xBox.

I'll probably spend most of my time crafting. Seriously. With 4~5 hours of pvp so I can finalize my decision between 2 classes.

Wow I want to try EVERYTHING just really get immersed in it all and see where it takes me. My only "plan" is to try different classes and see what I want to by my main. Other than that, who know!? :D

I probably won't be able to preorder until after the first beta weekend so I may miss out.

I doubt anyone wants to buy it for me either, so I'll just have to wait :)

I'm probably going to spend most of my time with PvE and PvP (or WvWvW). I'll most likely experience everything I can since I'm not doing much during that weekend, or at least that's my goal.

With overflow servers there is no queue. Play the game as you wait to get onto your actual server.

And down time? The server may crash at the start but if ArenaNet has built the servers and overflow servers well then we shouldn't be seeing too many problems.

Plus if they do, we know they'll get to test and fix things before launch. :)
