Guild Wars is a new MMORPG which was brought out on 28th April 2005. I am extremly interested in buying this game! If any of you out there have it, please tell me what you think!

I had a trial of it - well, a invitation for one of the beta weekends before it was released and I thoroughly enjoyed it :)

£17.99 and no monthly charges - you can't go wrong can you? :D

It was end of march I think I tried it - so the details are hazy.

It reminds me of a NWN-style to it with a nice online element on top and lush graphics.

You didn't mention what games you like/dislike so its hard to say what game a person will like without knowing any games you like.

As I said, I'd say go for it as there's no online charge, you cant go wrong really lol

Regards,

I played this for a couple months but everytime they would update the game would become unplayable even though my system far exceeded their recommended.

Everytime I opened a specific bag my screen would lock up for 0.5seconds to 20 seconds. Also everytime I completed a bonus mission and got the mission complete screen I'd lock up (could still hear sound but no graphics). I submitted a help request on 10-30-06 and worked with their techs for a week or two. Then out of the blue I stopped getting replies.

I kept trying different settings and updated them every 2-3 days with stuff I had done but still never got a reply. Then one day when I would open my character stat screen I started locking up again and would chatter until I closed the window. I submitted a new help request and they closed it out within 20 minutes saying I still have another one open. I added to that and still no reply.

Then out of the blue the very last week of Jan I get an email from them saying they fixed the problem and I can play again. 2 almost 3 months with no reply and then suddenly they fixed it.

During all my communication with their tech support they kept insisting it was a fault in my computer. But we were never able to prove that. I also pointed out the fact that on my community sites there were multiple people posting that they had the same exact problems I was on different systems.

I heard [today] they are bringing out a new version - but its not a expansion pack apparently.

Hope its still free to play :)

Will have to get it online or just wait for the new one :)

Cheers

It is an expansion pack, but it adds onto the game by adding another campaign. You don't need the original Guild Wars to play Factions either.

Guild Wars: Factions. There will be a preview at the end of march. The end of this month you can preorder the expansion.

I thought as much.

These game retail stores eh? the people on the other side of them really havent a clue what they are talking about some times lol ;)

Thanks for the reply tho :)

I'd imagine they'll create a bundle for it, for those [like me] that havent got the actual game yet :D
