So is it Orr or Ore? hehehe

I can't decide if the gates to other areas lead to more surface or to the underground areas, but i bet that is the full above ground map
(if anyone from Anet wants to join this thread i'm sure it would be appreciated)

Sorry to burst your bubble:

Having read this thread and viewed the videos, it's clear to see that everyone has gotten a lot of cool new information from our presentations at E3. However, in the midst of the information, there were some errors or some misstatements on our part.

So I've posted up a clarification page on the Guild Wars Wiki, and want to invite you to read the page to see the few small comments that we need to clear up. If you have questions about the clarification, I will try to answer those questions.

Aww, now GW:EN doesn't seem as cool tbh. Bad move there ANet, making Orr rise from the sea would have been cooler, ahh well guess you can't get everything. But what is that area on the map then? where Orr is supposed be, this map seems fake if this is true.

So the area with floating boulders thats risen from the sea in the interview isn't Orr

By the looks of it the area your talking about is just another Asurian Area.

The guy was seriously confusing the Tarnished Coast and Riven of Ore area with the actual Orr. So i doubt those boulders were ever risen from the sea.

I doubt Orr would of even looked like that after being blown up and then risen from the depths of the sea.

now that sux

. Hey a-net be smart and make a mini expansion u can buy from the online store with the floating ruins of orr

JeniM · Jul 14, 2007, 12:51 PM // 12:51

OK your not getting this
In GWEN there is an area of flying rocks and huge gyroscope looking magic things

Watch the interview, he says this is the land of "word sounding like "or"" while walking through an area of flying rocks

What am i not getting?

I never said there wasnt an area of huge gyroscope looking magic things. All i said is that is not Orr. I even posted my confusion in the thread which has the two videos....well before Gaile posted.

The guy described Orr and then said the Asura went there to escape the Destroyers. But the Tarnished Coast was the place the Asura were said to have escaped to. And then while in that same area (with the flying boulders) the person playing switchs to the map....and is shown to be in the Tarnished Coast

This guy somehow confused Riven of Ore with Orr itself.

Quote:

That location where there is now rock on the map has always been known as the location of Orr, I'm 100% sure about that. The question now is, who's confused? Gaile, the dude talking or the person who made the map? I'm more and more leaning towards Gaile.

Orr...or what remains of it.

Can't wait to get exploring.

There are loads of portals going to no where on that map. So its safe to say if its real its not finished or they didn't want people to see what's there just yet.

Bryant Again · Jul 14, 2007, 01:30 PM // 13:30

Goddammit PR guy...That whole thing with Orr got my goddam hopes up.

prism2525 · Jul 14, 2007, 03:07 PM // 15:07

one cataclysm sank Orr, so why not make another one push it back up?

drupal · Jul 14, 2007, 03:13 PM // 15:13

I think GWEN will be amazing and I'd like to see that they put as much love in the new maps as they did in Pre-Searing.

Sparda · Jul 14, 2007, 03:50 PM // 15:50

I took the liberty to take a closer look @ the GW:EN map.
And found some stuff.

1: there is so much unused space
2: I found some spots that are just copy pasted on there like in the far shiverpeaks there is a square ontop of a part exploreble
3: in maguma between tangle root and riverside province there is a river u can see the copy paste lines there
4: the new part of the map u see a delta river since when does that river flow to the lake above divinity coast from the original map of tyria there is no river

so there a some flaws to fix

But overall i have a good feeling about it.

sorry to do this but it just cought my attention

I'm not sure i'm looking at what you see but the river between Tangle Root and Riverside Province has always been like that. Also the river has always been shown to flow into the lake above Divinity Coast. If you're talking about something else maybe you should circle it on a map so its easier for us to find.
