Guild Wars 2 – BWE 2

There will be a new Guild Wars 2 Beta Weekend Event coming June 8th to the 10th…

Beta Weekend Event 2 will begin on Friday, June 8th, at noon PDT (GMT-7) and will run until Sunday, June 10th, at 11:59 p.m. PDT (GMT-7).

So far I have the 9th and 10th off, so I hope I can stay off and get in game a lot that weekend. Hopefully I can get some really good game time in as I am super stoked about having some real time in the game, which I didn’t get last time, and nearly none at all during the stress test day.

A few key things, existing characters haven’t and won’t be deleted, so they are still valid for that weekend. They are going to detail the fixes they have made in the near future, though it sounds like they may have fixed the overflow server issue (many seemed to think it was largely fixed during the stress test compared to the first BWE), keybinding, chat functionality has been improved (exactly how we’ll have to see), performance and others, that as I said will be detailed in the near future. No word yet if they moved more of the graphics to the GPU.

I am starting to study up on WvW play so I can do some of that during the BWE2. I also hope to get some screenshots and perhaps some video… I may also role another alt to test the Engineer class…
