Guild Wars 2 opening June 28 - Report

We've reviewed Tyria Guide for Guild Wars 2, check it out if you want to http://thednetworks.com/2012/08/24/guild-war-2-guide-review-tyria/

Arena.net just announced the release date August 28, 2012 one month after the speculated date.

Initially I thought it was really close to ready as in each races beginning they throw you into some awesome stuff and give ya enough personal story and exploration to make you look past the little bugs like broken instances and NPCS etc. However as you get past all that and start running out of things to do you really start noticing how not ready the game really is, especially if you experienced the dungeons. Sure no trinity is fine, however there is no way in heck melee class should take the same damage as ranged classes, Not saying to make melee invincible but if ya wear heavy armor, are speced into stats that give vitality and make you do more damage then you should do just that and be able to take somewhat of a beat down in comparison to others. They still have alot of tweaking to do and have yet to test alot of features for lvl 35 and on..

PURE SPECULATION !!!

I WANT IT NOW!!! cant wait :/

When is Guild Wars 2 going to be released?

We expect to ship Guild Wars 2 in 2012. The final release date will be determined by beta-testing feedback.    (this is what GW2 said)

Reading the feedback myself and participated the first BETA weekend i would say... probably in august or something

just check the official webstie and facebook page for release.. If a developer didnt post a release date on their own website its not true

*sploosh*

I'm excited  :) It would be perfect!

Let's see, that's misleading gamespot title #132 this year alone.

I'm excited for this game.  And I don't see why some people are upset with the article.  I am always interested in possible leaks and rumors, and I am aware they may likely be false.  

Anyway, I hope the release date will be announced soon.

Mr. Eddie Makuch . Do your homework and bring facts to the people not fault info.. 

I don't think this is as unrealistic as a lot of ppl on here seem to think it is. Stress testing is usually one of the final stages in the development process. Swtor had stress tests through November and early December and released mid December. The release date for swtor was also leaked by a retailer. (best buy I think)

Of course this is all assuming there wasn't some massive game breaking issue with the servers but only devs would know that for sure. 

June? I don't think so, August maybe. Either way I'm not jumping on this boat, I have already spent way to much and have my many expenses for the next upcoming months, mainly because of the Crystal White PS Vita lol

The fact that they've already started pre-purchasing means that the clock is ticking on when they have to release a product, (by law they can't hold the money indefinately). That being said, June 28 seems really aggressive. My guess all along has been a July/August launch

FAKE& *:

Guild Wars 2 ? @GuildWars2

@djsaynt It wasn't a leak, we never gave anyone a release date. Many retailers are making guesses, but that's all they are: guesses. ~RB2

man oh man cant wait for this one to come out B)

I am happy to say FINELY GUILD WARS 2 IS COMING OUT in stores near YOU! June 28, 2012.

gamespot stop doing crap like this and reading into the leaks and junk. Only report facts from the game devs.. 

I am not sure they can fix the bug within a month with so many bugs reported in the last BWE. I was enjoyed the game a lot in last BWE but I believe they can get even better if they don't try to rush the game out. I know most gamers can wait for a perfect launch rather than a launch like D3 at the moment.

For those who dont do research or read the internet. The FPS issues will not be there at release. The recent build used last month and this week's stresstest is CPU bound. That doesnt meant it will be like that at release. AND FYI, beta is currently also using a debug mode that runs in the background.  Don't listen to people that don't do their research.

Anet working on game since years, game is cool even with the bugs lol, its no warhammer or rift in anyway

I'm pretty sure the developers said that the last beta weekend(2weeks ago) they only let the game use one core of your cpu and it didnt access the gpu at all, it used the on board graphics or something like that. I guess to see if the game can run on the crappiest computers out there

The game is crap right now especialy pve al l isaw during beta is that the pve in this game is a pure warhammer-rift clone

horrible FPS many many bugs..no way this game coming next month

Agreed that the game need A LOT of cleaning up. PvP is balanced enough, and just downright fun. PvE, however, is a train wreck. The classes mostly need reworking too, as anyone who thoroughly played through the beta could tell; namely the thief, warrior and necromancer. (oh god, the useless steal and awkward savage lunge!)
