Whadya mean "link characters"?? we can link our chars to ANY existing GW char? (even other people's?)

Still... OH YEAH! My Dalila's great granddaughter! The family fire will never EVER be extinguished!! Mwahahaha.

With 200 years passed, magic would have greatly improved i expect. May be the reason/excuse of raising the cap (or removing it). No Complains here! GG anet!

PS: wish the charr would be present and enemies in GW2. I just love kicking their butts all over the place.

And Gaile said that the GW servers will remain on line after release of GW2.

But that doesn't say if there will be more actual expansions. As I understand it, Eye of the North will be the last "expansion", but there could be more things added such as how DoA or SF were added, things like that, or holiday events, ect.

Even then, depending on how they did it, I think I could be happy about that.

I was really just concerned that we basically had nothing to really look forward to after GW:EN except event weekends, holidays, and an eventual GW2 beta.

it does say.

to quote a bit of the first page of the article

Quote:

you read that right: Campaign 4 is canceled-and so are all future Guild Wars campaigns. Finished,Done, Gone for good.

our visit to the offices showed a development team that

Quote:

has redefined its ambitions altogether.
new reces, new skills, new control scheme, new story, New game.

Yes, Loviatar, no more campaigns/chapters - the standalone/linkable releases we have had in the past. But no where does it say that there will be no "expansion" type additions, such as GW:EN, which require already owning one of the campaigns/chapters.

If they are dedicating a team to GW, I think we can expect more than weekend events, which after the first one of a type, are easy to repeat. I don't know any devs/programmers who can resist tinkering and adding things.

I'm sure ANet has a whole list of content ideas that never made it into the game for various reasons. And we will start seeing that between the release of GW:EN and GW2. ANet will work to keep their customer base coming back to GW.

You have to link your GW1 account with your GW2 account (like when you add the serial key for any new campaign). Then you can link a GW2 character to a GW1 character on your account by giving it the same name.

again to quote the article a small amount without copying too much.

from the article a quote on that

Quote:

Anet will assign a team to continue supporting the current game with live content between now and the release of Guild Waes 2. expect free events like the Canthan New Year celebration with its rollerbeetle races (mini--PVP events) , dance party, feast, and themed quests.

only special events are listed along with the statement that this frees up people for the work on GW 2.

there is no mention of major content in the section on how they will keep loyal players happy except the events.
