Question: Guild wars 2 open beta?
When do you think the open beta is? Mars, april or may? I dont think it will be on february.
Just guess when you think the open beta is :)
I srsly cant wait for this game :O
Answer:
As far as I know there are not going to be any open betas. They have been holding closed betas for the last couple of months. Kind of like how SWTOR was doing it. They also announced that it was going to be coming out for console.
There will be no "open beta" for Guild wars 2 as announced thus far. Arenanet, the makers of Guild Wars 2 , will be ramping up the scale of their closed beta, to include wider and wider selections, but we do not know exactly how or who will be picked.
I have two clips on this on my channel - one about the announcements of the betas and release, and one about the scams trying to trick you into thinking you can get a betakey. Only trust official sources at guildwars.2com
Im thinking april
but im hoping march
There will be no "open beta" for Guild Wars 2 in the traditional sense. ArenaNet have announced that there will be beta events (weekends) in March and April, and more people will have the chance to sign up for them - but access will not be unlimited.
This is the quote from community manager Martin Kerstein:
"We purposely didn’t use the term “Open Beta”, we mentioned Beta Events. To some people Open Beta means unlimited access to the game and everybody on the interwebs can play it. This is not what we will do.
We will do Beta Weekend Events. Those of you who played Guild Wars might already be familiar with the concept. It means that many of you (like the blogpost says) will get a chance to participate in specific Events, but access won’t be unlimited – there will be some kind of selection criteria and the beta period will usually start on a Friday and end on the following Sunday."
