since it is rated kids or something, there probably won't be much to see. however, it is nice to see the project is still alive and we are really getting more info soon.

I think what everyone is misunderstanding about the GW2 status is that A-net has not direct power over when to release information. NCSoft chooses when to release any info, if at all. Right now, NCSoft is trying to put all their efforts into marketing AION, since Tabula Rasa left them with over a $100 Million hole in their budget. What I can be sure of is that once AION is released and the launch hype is done and over with, we will hear about Guild Wars. Also, keep your eyes open for PAX, which is coming, and A-net usually releases some info there.

Does it say 6 September anywhere on that site? I couldn't find that.

I hope we do get more info than just a GW2 trailer at PAX though. A trailer plus a (low key) playable demo would be nice.

Not that I could find.

It says Test Date 06.08.2009 (which could be August 6 or June 8, both of which have passed)

I would guess they reviewed it August 6, 2009 (EU does date.month.year), and they allowed it to be released within 6 years?

I know it was strongly hinted that they would likely have another trailer, but they should for sure. I still watch the Factions one from time to time...

Pretty sure the "age release" is a bad translation of "Age Limit". My guess is you have to be 6 years old to watch the trailer (when it's released?)

Edit: Yes, the USK is the German ratings board, I assume NCSoft/ArenaNet had to get their permission to show the trailer...

SECOND EDIT:

Since it says "Gamescom Trailer" I'm going out on a limb an predicting this trailer will be shown at Gamescon, Aug. 19-23.

It is titled "Gamescom Trailer" and Gamescom is August 19-23rd, so maybe we'll see it a little over a week from now.

That's interesting if it were so because ArenaNet will not have a booth there. (http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/User:...-_24_July_2009) Martin will be there, but that would be an interesting decision to reveal a trailer for the company's most anticipated game without the company having a strong presence there. Of course NCSoft will be there....

I'm holding out for PAX for some info. There was a hint by Regina on the wiki that they would have a "surprise" for us. Could be Guild Wars, but I'm thinking Guild Wars 2.

OK, a short teaser video at Gamescon, then maybe a full trailer or a little more info at PAX?

Gotta say, I have a feeling once the dam is opened, we're gonna get a lot of info!

Tr0nc3k linked me a German forum with the same info. Seems ArenaNet will have more of a presence at GDC than just Martin. http://www.wartower.de/forum/showpos...86&postcount=1

Given the timing/context that almost certainly looks to me like the next "major update." I'm betting on them selling us some actual new content for GW1.

Anyone translate?

"There is again new hope for Guild Wars 2, because our user Urvater discovered an entry in today's Unterhaltungssoftware Selbstkontrolle (USK) to a Guild Wars 2 Trailer. This carries the relatively clear names "gamescom Trailer" and of the USK as "released starting from 6 years old" evaluated. On details over length and contents, however, naturally nothing is known. Additionally, the announcement of the attendance of Martin Kerstein, as well as Global Brand Director Christian Lye, content writer Jeff Grubb and Art Directors Daniel Dociu makes us hope for more information.

(tried to clean up Babelfish: it translated "Global Brand Directors" as "global fire in the Directors" )

Maybe? But if GW2 is close, I doubt we're going to get any major updates for GW1. Guess we'll find out soon!

Ravious: can you find confirmation that Martin Kerstein, Christian Lye, Jeff Grubb and Daniel Dociu are coming to GamesCon?

Where did wartower get that info, do you know?
