Guild Wars 2

Guild Wars 2 closed beta in November? As per a Google Korean-to-French-to-English translation the outcome is something like at the Korean expo there will be new reveals, and then thereafter "Western Closed Beta"

From November 10 to 13 will take place on G-Star, the largest Asian exhibition devoted to video games. South Korea is in the great port city of Busan will host the event largely dedicated to online games and especially MMO (Koreans are fans of the genre). Of course, the big players will travel among them NCSoft. And if you talk about this show is that the South Korean press relayed a statement indicating the presence of Guild Wars 2: so far, not surprising. What is more, however, is that the press release mentions his presence there "following the start of the Beta West!" This would mean that the beta of Guild Wars 2 would start by the month of November!

Caution, however, because no official confirmation of NCSoft, this information is to be taken with large forceps pickles. Especially since the game still has no release date. But with the beta of Star Wars The Old Republic, which began in the United States and should not be long in Europe, if NCSoft would disrupt the plans of EA and Bioware, it does not take it other than throwing its beta in the coming months.

Well ... yet another rumour to add to the bundle. Let's hope that beta starts after my finals, otherwise I'm guaranteed a fail.

A piece of advice for you guys hoping, like me, to get into the beta. Go to www.curse.com and create an account.

Why?

Because more than likely you might get a beta key from Curse either instantly when the beta launches or in some kind of a sweepstakes giveaway.

Wonderful! One of the key selling points for Guild Wars 1 was that it was aimed at low to mid range gaming systems, now, there’s a lot of detail in Guild Wars 2, is this still the case specification wise?


It definitely is, I'll give you a little anecdote to give you an idea on how we make sure that happens; we believe, fundamentally that making games as approachable as possible is the way you make great games and that's the reason we don't charge monthly fees, we want to make the game as approachable as we can and it's the reason why we develop game so that they can play on mid range machines and you could turn the graphics settings down a little bit and play it on lower end machines. The graphic cards we have at Arenanet that we use to develop the game in house you can't actually buy them in stores anymore, we have to order them off of eBay and we do that intentionally to make sure that the people at home can actually play the game.


So you're intentionally using legacy hardware to make sure that the game is as accessible as possible?


Yeah, my PC at work is a legacy machine just to make sure it [Guild Wars 2] works and it's actually really fun to come to these games shows and see the game running on a really high end machine 'cause I turn around and I want to play it and see what it feels like because we're always playing it on these lower end machines at work.
