Question: How can I join beta? - Guild Wars Forums

H0PE · Feb 23, 2005, 11:09 AM // 11:09

I see that the beta weekends are still progressing. How can I joing it please? Would like to see the game... Not that I doubt the success they will make.

I'm a WOW fun but that's not an RPG thats "adventure"... I recently saw the trailers from GW and I'm already fond about it. I will definitelly swap the two game in my repertoire.

Go preorder the game from Best Buy or whatever. Get yourself a beta code. Download the client and your good to go.

Ohh, ok, so it's not "free beta" anymore. Got it...

Erm, the only problem I got is that I dont have a Ccard. Cannot pay on the net.

Erm... Cannot order on bestbuy... its US only. I'm in europe. Is this playable "nicely" from europe? Any European servers available? If not then it's best if I leave this order for a while.

You dont need a Credit Card. Just go into Best Buy or whatever. Hand them a five doller bill and they give you the beta box with cd and key codes. Game is free to play after you spend to five to preorder.

In this case if I pay then it's not a "weekend beta" or is it? I can play 24/7?

The question is still that wheter:
-I can play on US server without any problem
-Where can I order it other than bestbuy (me not US citizen)...

Thx...

But even if I would have a visa I couldn't order from best buy. It says us, blablabla only. No europe. Cannot even register outside US.

well I guess I have to wait 'till the final release... Not to mention if there were no EU server it wouldn't be *that much* a big internet experience (but I read in news there will be but im not sure anymore, since the "beta" seems US only).

...
well me going back to play wow
