Special GW:EN Event Planned

We have a special GW:EN promotion coming up this weekend.
This opportunity will furnish everyone with a chance to try out the expansion pack, and it's coupled with exceptional rewards of many kinds. Watch the website for more information on friday !

Hmm everybody can try GW:EN or are they referring to the bmp's

Can't wait...

Prolly the expansion pack...looking forward to the "exceptional" rewards.

Trying to get more people to buy GW:EN? Well, I can't blame them for that.

GW:EN went down in price mostly around the world, so it might be worth buying now.

Sounds interesting. Hopefully there'll be more nice items, like from the BMP.

I hate it when their too breif in the information they give. Could be good, could be bad. Time will tell, or Rahja because he pwnz.

I don't think it's referred to the BMP, but to GWEN.

It seems they want to make players try GWEN (of course those who haven't bought it yet).

I think it's something to promote the sales for GWEN, which could mean have not been as high as planned.

I hope that the extra rewards for those who has gw:en are not disappointing as a pve weekend event.

I would consider taking some toon on my non-gw:en secondary account and having some fun in gw:en, but I hate that hero-button in the party window which stays there later, disabled.

QFT. I'm hoping though, that the description had to be kept brief because it wouldn't fit on the login screen - as in something.. kinda big.

This is exciting. I can't wait to see what they have planned.

People will get to keep their drops, but surely not their skills. You guys who don't have it better make a made rush to Tarnished Haven, get Pain Inverter, and hope that they accidentally forget to lock those skills back up.

Bono Mini Pet. It is time.

so they can make gwen free access but not bmp lol

Please noone pounce on this post. Dont want another lame flame war (I didnt have access, you did.... x 10000). Its done now if anet decide add it then they will, if not dont worry.

Certainly. BMP was listed as a bonus item for participating in a particular marketing event.

GW:EN is a for general sale item - and giving everyone a weekend long trial code to it violates no expectations on anyone's part.

They still havent added the majority of the "Design a Weapon" contest winners to the game...maybe that will happen this weekend...

Maybe they're adding in all the rest of the content that they left out of the initial release.

Wishful thinking ftmfw

When did they annouce they had more content? Why would they leave stuff out?

Failed thinking F-T-L

You don't get it....do you?

WTS Sarcasm Detector 100k+50 armbraces

to clarify...$40 paid for factions, $40 paid for GWEN, only getting about 30% of the content of even Factions. I want the rest of what I paid for.

What about that chest in the Battle Isles that appeared and disappeared last week? The consensus seemed to be it was something new for PvP that appeared too early. Can't see how this would be specifically related to GWEN, though.

I knew you were being sarcastic. GW:EN too short, unlikely. Main story yes but lots of other stuff to keep you going, its the same as the other games and there was little fault. Too little content? Go play another game.
