Ok, i don't know if you do this already because i just watch regular antenna channels but. Advertise on TV. It would be costly, but! there are so many people who don't even know what this game is...It would help a lot.

Make it a big point that it is free to play, and its far more technologically advanced then any other MMORPG!

Thats my idea. Close this, vote....i don't care, just wanted to say that.

IT should be more like a cinematic that the other MMORPGs have. One that illustrates every profession.
An elementalist raping a mob of monsters with Meteor Shower.
A paragon with wing thingies leading an army against the mursaat or sumtin.
A ranger owning face and sploding people with ignite arrows.

Stuff that makes the professions seem actiony and cool in their own ways.

GW is far to old to be worth spending that sort of money on.

Also you get much better advertising/$ if you aim at gamers. So gaming sites and mags for the most part.

Enough people play anyway. We don't want to put pressure on the Anet team. Well lets just believe GW2 will have adverts for the now.

Don't advertise GW advertise GW2 before it comes out. I had never heard of GW until i saw the review and the rest of the 2.5years have been history

I wouldn't mind having a really impressive cinematic like This or This as television advertisements for GW2. It seems like they would be able to make a pretty big return on it considering how easy it is to own a GW game.

In my case I heard about GW from a friend. Before that I didn't even know about its existence. It was all pure chance I happened to be in the right place at the right time to meet this person, so there is no way I would have ever known about GW had it not been for this chance encounter. Before then I had never really looked into fantasy RPGs. However, if I had seen one of those trailers on TV I would have been impressed enough to at least check the game out, and from there probably buy the game.

It seems like the main problem GW has is that there's such a limited pool of people that know about it. And most of those are die hard fans of other RPGs that scoff at the very notion of GW. If they broadened their advertising campaign beyond word of mouth I think they could easily dominate the market.
