The disk with the pre-order:

Seems right now they are running some kind of beta because I don't have the full game, yet I can play AND I got my pre-order bonus item.

Bone Idol
Energy +3
Energy +10 (req. 8 Death Magic)
Armor +10 (req. 8 Curses)
Health +30 (req. 8 Blood Magic)

When I log in it asks me to add a key to my account. What do I do here?

well, speaking from the WoW perspective, having an account means you need to enter the code from the box into the system.

maybe you buy one? or its on the manual? or you need to be preapproved to register?

my solution; get WoW, its easier, and while im at it, better :P

The code is the box code (open the CD case and look at the inside cover... at the bottom there should be a scratch-off code). It allows you to play for this event...

When you begin playing, add "Celesti Incar" to your buddy list, then double click to send me a message... I can go adventurin' witcha if you want.

Nem, I believe only the people that participated in the beta test (and have entered their beta code) are allowed to play right now. Normal retail access will be at midnight tonight. It also looks like they kept all the beta guilds in tact, though I don't seem to have a cape in pre-seering Ascalon.

Here is from the Guild Wars web site:

Early Access Begins     27 April 2005

At the stroke of Midnight this morning, the preorder Early Access period began. Players flooded in to Tyria, and began their pre-launch game adventure. Retail access begins at 12:01 PDT April 28th (tonight). We look forward to seeing you in Guild Wars!


Razor, yes, it's free and I got a $10 mail-in rebate to boot!

Sounds like your mouse is broken, you can set the controls anyway you like using the "customize" option in the main menu.

Guild Wars is phenomenal (or how you write it) i thought it would be a great game but I didn't expect this of the game even though i have played the B�©ta only once the game blowned me litteraly away in these two days the spells are awesome, the storyline is cool, thousands of quests, the capes indicating the guilds, the players when they teamwork in missions etc... .
This game sure must be a hit and it definetly will the game is now 1 week old and there are many players online guildwars looks very promising.
If anyone of you out there doubting about buying the game DON'T and buy the game
if you don't like it i will re-pay your money back :D (just a joke don't take it serious)

anyone have GW and play it on 56k (or is this a game i'll be "forced" to play at school >:} )

and why the hell can't i find it in the stores  :angry:
Title: I just got Guild Wars...
Post by: Celestial1 on May 09, 2005, 09:38:40 AM
56k just means slower load times, but the game runs smooth as far as I know.

Post by: Anheg on May 09, 2005, 10:05:46 AM
Most of my friends play GW because it is one of the few newer games that can run decently on a 56k.

Throbble and I just got back from Massacheset... Massetchu.... uh, Boston and I'll resend the guild invite (in case it expired) as soon as I catch up on all the new posts here.

EDIT: Nemesis, I tried to invite you but it says the character "Blood Nemesis" doesn't exist. Did you delete it? If so, give me your new character name.

(also tried "God Nemesis" and "Masta Nemesis" as listed in the Names thread.)
