yeah i'm a nerd

www.gw2fans.com
forums etc... come on and we'll speculate about the upcoming classes together
I'm predicting
necro, mesmer, some sort of engineer, and some sort of monk/warrior

GW2 Dye system...

so, this looks fantastic... look at ALL the options!!

it's a gas

Something to spend $$ on maybe - not monthly subscriptions but... in this article...

Microtransactions will be properly introduced in Guild Wars 2 enabling players to purchase in-game items with real money, though this won’t be mandatory. This system works with a lot of games, though some like Need for Speed world require a minimum purchase to get the most out of the game. It’s a good model for people who want to play MMORPGS more casually, rather than those who play constantly because they have a subscription.

the first videos

a compilation from gw2 fans.


and the fourth class is...

necromancer
this strange music clip shows a necro in the demo (filmed yesterday)
they only had 4 classes to choose from


IGN review of demo

here

first 5 skills

so, rereading some stuff...
you know how i said the first 5 skills are determined by weapons that are being held... well eles have some flexibility on that one. they can choose one of the 4 atunements (fire, earth, water, air, dur)... and that will change their skill set! awesome flexibility.

It also looks like a warrior (or anyone really) could change weapons between fights (or even during if they have the right traits), and change their skills too! nice to see some flex!

an example of this for rangers can be seen in the clip below for spread shot - she first holds a sword and torch, and then runs back and uses a bow.

and this... just cause its funny

need a monk... not anymore


no monks in GW2!
whoah!
It's a bit weird, but i think i love it

this article has all the info on the new triangle of support, damage and that other one...

10 out of 10 Australia!

does anyone else remember that ad?
anyways...
10 skills slots in GW2!
you got it 10

5 - based on your weapons
1 - elite
1 - self heal
3 - others

check it here

the pen is mightier than the sword... but what about 2 swords!!!



this article says:

One of the things that became apparent early in the development of Guild Wars 2 was that we needed a diverse set of weapons to support our skill system. The full list of standard wieldable weapons in Guild Wars 2 is as follows:
One-Handed: Axe, dagger, mace, pistol, scepter, and sword.
Two-Handed: Greatsword, hammer, longbow, rifle, shortbow, and staff.
Offhand only: Focus, shield, torch, and warhorn

each weapon comes with skills attached by the sounds of things - 5 for a 2 handed weapon, 3 for main hand, 2 for offhand - and i think some of the one handed can be used in off hand - 2 swords for example, and the rather obvious 2 daggers

more on skills etc later

wooo!!
