[Shirou]

Confirmation everything, including your chosen server, will be wiped before release:

They have a POLL on Guildwars2SA: http://www.guildwars2sa.co.za/smf/index.php?topic=216.0

Hello all,

Zeu here from Guild Wars 2 SA

Thought I'd give you an update of our latest plans, which we are now spamming on our Forum and Facebook group :

Petrified Forest was the server of choice the last BWE, but quickly filled, and the rest of us then decided on Lakeside County.
Lakeside County was fine for PvE but failed dismally @ WvW, it might have been lack of people or a bug in the system..

May we kindly propose that we all try Lakeside County on Sunday from 15h00 to 17h00, for an Epic WvW battle?

This should give us an indication whether the server pairing issues was resolved, and whether Lakeside County could become the future Server of Choice.

Hope to see you there

Zeu

Iniuria will all be moving to LC for this BWE

I'm not sure that server switching is going to be possible this weekend without buying gems. So please don't assume that we'll be able to move around as easily as we did in the last beta. Is anyone even sure we will be having free transfers again? Even if they do it might only be for a limited time.

I will probs check out LC this weekend again giving it its last chance but if it fails ima probs buy gems and go to Shosa's Hollow since im mainly a PvP/WvW player..

All data has been wiped for this coming BETA, so everyone is starting on a clean slate

Yes, but there's talk of switching to LC on Sunday if you are not on that server, which may not be possible.

They might give us gems again this time, like they did with the previous two betas. We'll have to see.

They will not be giving gems away this beta weekend. However you will be able to purchase them from the shop with your credit card. At launch they will then refund your gems that you bought in the beta. I think every one should just move to lakeside county on friday as you will have to choose your home server again and create new characters.

From the poll on GW2SA, it seems the vast majority of people will be rolling on Lakeside County, so I guess I'll give it a shot.
