I'm going to be an airplane.
I tried to make a countdown based on the mesmer site, it ended up being a bit less smooth then I'd hoped: http://codepen.io/anon/full/kBqdG
Yeah...
That's really weird... It was working 30 minutes ago :sDoesn't work.
Totaly... I've been playing all other kinds of games and trying to come less to the site for the time being so that I don't think about it. The anxiety it's overwhelming lolol.I've basically been going nuts trying to keep myself busy but I keep thinking about GW2.![]()

Breathe the fresh air while you can! Cuz when the game is out, we all gonna be locked in our rooms for undefined periods of time. xDIndeed, I'm hoping to spend most of the day outside today so I don't whine while staring at my screen. XD
Guild Wars 2
We will be conducting a stress test tomorrow Tuesday, August 21 from 12:00 Noon PACIFIC Time to 4:00 PM PACIFIC Time.
Yeah, I was just thinking about this a few minutes ago, strangely enough.. they really "played" us pretty hard with the whole limited beta thing. I can't fault them for it though, since they have an amazing game that backs up the hype but damn... They definitely kept us coming back for more.AN's take on beta is unusual. Most of the betas I have seen is that it runs all the time once you get invited. With this on again off again approach they are really keeping our interest at a high level so they will be getting tons of people actually playing when it starts instead of people who are already burnt out somewhat before the game even goes live.
Its a strong psychological tactic and I think a great long term strategy for word of mouth and viral marketing which is the strongest business model right now. The people who are into it and the people who make a living off reporting and critiquing video games will rave and convince the fence sitters to come and try it out. It doesn't hurt that they are putting out a quality game with a clear focus that they can market. (working together to have fun instead of against one another).
Having said that, I probably wont be trying very hard to get on tomorrow since I just want to play my main and have it count. I can wait 4 days, 2 hours and 21 minutes till its time to start pushing the play button.
