Sweet, I missed the Factions "sneak peak" event, so it'll be cool to check out this one. Won't miss it this time!

Gaile, is it possible to get the pre-order pack from the Guild Wars store?

MSecorsky · Jun 29, 2007, 09:57 PM // 21:57

Speaking of not-yet-mentioned projects... what is this "dragonesque" upcoming event of which you spoke in a different forum, if I may ask?

Positively. They won't be shipping out the hard product, I mean the package itself, but they will be sending out the access keys that entitle you to all the game-related goodies.

The Great Al · Jun 29, 2007, 10:21 PM // 22:21

awesome! that makes it a lot easier.

probably a stupid question, but are these not-yet-mentioned projects Guild Wars related?

Master Ketsu · Jun 29, 2007, 10:26 PM // 22:26

Im just hoping we get to take a look at the new skills and can try them out a month before gwen actually releases. As a PvP'r i'm pretty interested to see if gwen is going to have anything that will help the meta or not.

That would be nice. Just like factions/nightfall event.

I'd bet that we'll get to see a handful of skills, yes. This event is probably as much for us as it is for the skill balancers.

Heh, Gaile is on a roll today. I think it goes without saying that we as a community appreciate the quick responses to our questions. I'm really just looking forward to new content with GW:EN. As more information appears on the horizon, I hope you'll be there to share it with us...

FlameoutAlchemist · Jun 29, 2007, 10:49 PM // 22:49

Thanks for the quick responses Gaile.

How soon will we have a release date for GW:EN?

bilateralrope · Jun 29, 2007, 10:55 PM // 22:55

So the only preview (that we have been told about) for GW:EN is an event we have to pay for ?

The Great Al · Jun 29, 2007, 11:03 PM // 23:03

i'm pretty sure that the past sneak-peak weekends weren't part of the preorder..only the 24 hour advance was part of it.

So, this one is different.

Besides, if we get to keep all our drops, it's more of a "headstart" than a "sneak peak."

It's the first of its kind, this one.

Now, hold on a bit and let's consider this. If I give you a release date for the release of the release date, I could get in biiig trouble!

However, between you and me, and I'm sure no one else is reading this whatsoever, you'll have that information very, very soon.

Mister_Smiley · Jun 29, 2007, 11:33 PM // 23:33

So its a Sneak peak, kinda like the one that we got with Factions when it comes out, which i like, i diff will get the pre-order. Now i just gotta wait for the offical date and we should be good to go. WOOOT!!! thanks for all the info Gaile

Mordakai · Jun 29, 2007, 11:38 PM // 23:38

Thanks again, Gaile! You made my day.

Seriously though, One in Toronto is a must! I know atleast a handful of people in my community that have Guild Wars

And since we are needing to use existing characters for GW:EN, I can see how a preview event will be difficult. But since we have to pay for this preview, I don't see it being useful to help people who are still undecided on GW:EN.

And whats the word on it being available in New Zealand ?

I think post #23 answers your question

Are Australians going to miss out again? We always end up going to stores to get a preorder/prerelease pack and the staff have no idea what we are talking about (and this is from your exclusive Australian retailer).
