Just Wondering if you'd prefere one of the following options

1.GW2 Delayed by a month, Some GW1 Bugs fixed+ possibilty of new things

2.GW2 Delayed by 3 months, New expansion/ Standalone released

3.GW2 released ontime

jsut a tought.
unsure about how long dev. would take so i put in roughly some time.

GW1 is effectively dead, according to ArenaNet.

Err, source please? Not quite.

Personally, 3. I want GW2 out already..

Mysterious option 18: GW2 is completed a year after expected.

Because they didn't want ANY fraction of the game rushed or half-assed.

does it matter really??
I had not planned on getting gw2 so it can be delayed indefinately if you ask me.

The Great Al · Oct 31, 2007, 12:26 AM // 00:26

if GW2 is over a year and a half away, I wouldnt mind an extra 3 month wait, if say, sometime within the next 9 months or so we got another expansion for GW1.

i want 3...

maybe the community will fix its self and the Xmas '05 bunch will emerge again... and i'm so excited for finding a group in under 2 minutes for a mish by yelling "Healer LFG!"

...but with the way things are going, community wise... along with the cool and nice bunch from Xmas '05, the 11 year olds will be free from their cages aswell

Norrin · Oct 31, 2007, 12:28 AM // 00:28

It'll be released when it is released, and it will be amazing!

Just do whatever you enjoy doing in GW1 until it comes out to pass the time

I have waited more than 10 years for Starcraft 2 and Fallout 3 - so yeah a few years wait for Guild Wars is NOT a big deal. Just get the game right!

I Phoenix I · Oct 31, 2007, 12:42 AM // 00:42

I say 1 ONLY if the improvements to GW1 are released within 3 months of now.

JoeKnowMo · Oct 31, 2007, 01:01 AM // 01:01

I say 2.

But more like GW2 delayed by 3 months and mini-expansion ($20) for GW1 released.

Or GW2 delayed by 6 months and expansion ($40) for GW1 released.

3 months is too short to put together an expansion.

They seem to have some art and who knows what else laying around that they didn't use in GWEN. It would be a quick way for Anet to make a buck and keep GW1 more active.

my homework isn't due till a week from now but i know i'll be doing it at 1am day before school.

There is alot about GW2 in this forum adn complaints about GW1, jsut seeing would people like to see some bugs fixed but at the expense of gw2 release or not or maybe an addition to GW1.

More content over the next few years of wait would be nice, but not necessary. Personally, I'd like pretty much exclusive PvP focus while we wait, there's plenty of stuff to do in PvE.

As for the release date of GW2, it'd be nice if they released on the deadline. However I'd prefer if the game is released when it's done. Forcing a deadline can lead to a buggy, half working game. Possibly even a half finished game with the original content to be added in later. As was the case with Nightfall.

Sirijan The Shadow · Oct 31, 2007, 01:11 AM // 01:11

I say 2, of course.
Three months is nothing :P

wilebill · Oct 31, 2007, 01:14 AM // 01:14

I would prefer to see GW2 delayed another year or even longer if that is what it takes to release a game that ANet will be proud of.

Blizzard does have a great policy on game releases. They will not release anything that does not meet their high standard of excellence. As with StarCraft 2, they will only say "It will be released when it is ready." I think ANet feels the same way.

Zinger, not my impression; but what is your source?

thedeadwalk! · Oct 31, 2007, 01:21 AM // 01:21

I want good GW2 more than more modified GW1.

Well considering ArenaNet is ex-Blizzard employees (plus a few more), I don't expect that working formula to be scrapped.
