Yep, the folks over at ArenaNet have now announced the release date for Guild Wars. Look forward to playing the game 24/7 starting April 28th 2005. For official information about Guild Wars, please visit Guildwars.com. To discuss Guild Wars, or learn more about the game, please visit our associate site, RPG Stars, an official Guild Wars fansite.
 
One word,

FINALLY

REALLY?! Isn't this an MMORPG? If it is and with no monthly fee, I'm going to crap my pants.
 
Well, you know I have that big huge Guild Wars fansite already linked above, heh.

I have been adding content to the site almost all week. I've ensured that every bit of content available in the new design is fully html 4.01 and .css1 compliant.

Yes, Guild Wars is an MMORPG styled game with no monthly fee. However, many of the things you would expect an MMORPG to have are not present in Guild Wars. It's sort of like all of the adrenaline you get from drinking coffee...

minus the coffee. ;)
 
AAGH I just went to the Guild Wars website and noticed this release date was only for North America and Europe!!!!

why is the world so cruel to me ???

Chile? I need therapy now........
 
Darg, I do feel for you. Alot of games are released in America and asia, and they wait months before they send them to Australia and those places down there. It seems the world is slowly forgetting about you people, in a few years most Americans probably won't even know what Australia is...

(I'm sort of kidding but it is sad)
 
That's a mistype on the part of ArenaNet.

Guild Wars will be available simultaneously across the globe. The very fact that all you really need to start playing is the 64Kb install file means that you could even concievably purchase the game online and play within about 5 or 10 minutes of purchase. :)

Now, I know that NCSoft intends to put the product in bricks and mortar shops to begin, but the expansions..... those expansions for Guild Wars could be purchased right from NC Soft/ ArenaNet.

Time will tell, I guess. ;)

Click to expand...

Then crap away...crap away T_T Guild Wars has come sooooooooooooooooooooo far from when I played the pre-beta crap (I'm playing the Pre-order stuff now, only $10!!) And I lose it, for it is teh sex!
 
uhh, its not released in australia yet... not officially.

its possible to get copies, but they have been imported from america, and people using them can possible get in trouble cause GW's hasn't yet been rated by the australian goverment agency that does that stuff. and until that happens all copies here are in a way illegal.

i dunno when it will be officially released, atm if u have a copy u'll be stuck on crappy american servers i think.

oh well, i cant wait for it to come out.

oh btw, i neva been to this site be4, was just looking at GW stuff.
i'm a BHL and BH member who was a long time player of D2.

if any1 wants to know more u can pm me on BH or BHL as simple6t9 or email me
at [email protected] , my uber old email =D
 
You should check out rpgstars.com for lots of Guild Wars information.
 
where do they tell you the system requirements is this anything like FF online cuz thats like the only RPG that i liked other than D@ which I dont consider an rpg at all
 
Has GW still not been released in Aus yet? I've pre-ordered it from a place in my area last Tuesday thinking that it was released in Aus, and now apparently I'm only to expect it around the end of May. I've noticed a lot of places saying that it'll be coming on the 30-May-2005. Anyone know what's happening?

    Mayo also has vinegar. Vinegar is a very important part of it, it's effectively a delivery method FOR vinegar but hidden

  • Varine Varine:
    It's a neat ingredient. But yeah it's eggs. But a LOT of people think eggs count as dairy because of the fucking food pyramid the US keeps trying to make a thing
  • Varine Varine:
    I think on the new one they did change it, but idk. I don't really care whatever the government is doing right now because it's consistently absurd. Like what is RFK doing in charge of health anything? I love the bear story because WTF was that, but also, pretty much every time he talks it's WTF. Like even his voice sounds microwaved

  • Varine Varine:
    The pyramid is fucking dumb as shit, no matter how you arrange it.
  • Varine Varine:
    It's actually remarkably easy to make mayonnaise though. Fun fact, it USED to kind of be a French mother sauce. I believe that Careme considered it one, it may have been aioli but that has also built a different meaning than it used to. An aioli is just mayonnaise I mixed with other shit typically, I didn't start it don't come at me
  • Varine Varine:
    It's very hard to do it on a large scale though
  • Varine Varine:
    Depending on how you pour the oil the consistency can vary wildly, but that's true for most emulsions. I can only make about two quarts at a time with my robo coup, and if I have to make several in series because I forgot to order it becomes really obvious even when I do it. We have to wait and mix them all together to make sure we have the same thing.
  • Varine Varine:
    Hollandaise is also kind of like that, emulsions require a very steady hand to do exactly the same every time.
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I live in an age with electricity so it's way fucking faster, but when I was just a boy trying to find my place I had some hardcore chefs that made use do things like that by hand. It is WAY easier to get right by hand because you control it and can feel it, but it takes soooooo much longer. And on the scale a modern kitchen requires... I serve 400-500 guests on average per day right now, if I had 100 then we could do things way better
  • Varine Varine:
    But we can't do that. In the winter yeah, but I HAVE to get people through here right now so I can afford the staff that we CAN do that. We have about 100 days of summer, and if that summer doesn't make us what it will, then I can't operate the other most of the year with my staff. The owner is talking about closing two days a week to cut down on labor, I told him he should cut down on vacations and it did not go great. I do think I won though, I have to keep my fucking core staff and they have to be gainfully employed
  • Varine Varine:
    Sure some of them might take a second job, but I can't just cut my entire staff to unlivable hours, nor can I can cut them off all winter if I want them to come back.
  • Varine Varine:
    And also, there is no fucking way I'm pulling these hours come september. I only do this right now because I have to, the second I don't have to be the one doing it I won't be
  • Varine Varine:
    I have a 5 person core staff in the kitchen, not including me or Chef Ben
  • Varine Varine:
    Though two of those people are likely not making it this year. One of them has been replaced, the other I am kind of trying to. He's being a giant bitch, today I had to get onto him because in the three hours before I left he had taken like thirty minutes for cigarette breaks
  • Varine Varine:
    And he was also complaining to me the other day that he was out of weed so couldn't smoke any before work that day, and was confused about why I was annoyed he was telling me, his boss, that he is smoking weed everyday before work.

  • Varine Varine:
    Like yeah I can tell. I don't need to fucking know.
  • Varine Varine:
    So now he's getting scrutinized and will not be top of the list. I know I don't have the smartest people but I do expect them to have some common fucking sense
  • Varine Varine:
    I did do a rare thing for me and hire a girl last month without warning. Everyone was made at me because I started her at like 21, but she worked with me before and I was like don't care. She made 19 at her old job and I wanted her to come work with me, she is the best
     +1
  • Varine Varine:
    I'm going to get her a raise at the end of the summer. She wants to go to school again, but I want her to still work with me so.... she kind of can just tell me what the price is. I can go to 25 if she keeps up. I need to get her onto line more, that's what she wants, but I need her where she is and it's not fair that she doesn't get the little bit of raise that comes with it. She can do it no problem, I've worked with her there.
  • Varine Varine:
    It's just hard to move and train people unnecessarily right now. And also the line fucking sucks, it's not any more fun. This is turn and burn so I have the bankroll, and everyone suffers for it
  • Varine Varine:
    Eventually we'll get it balanced, we'
  • Varine Varine:
    we're starting online orders and stuff, but I also turn that off all the time because I barely keep up trying to be the best at Sysco shit
  • Varine Varine:
    I think it's gonna be a good fall and winter though. We're going to have a good staff, they will get along, they will be able to manage the workload and the complications, they know how to really cook this year, like every person on line knows their steak temps. Some of them use thermometers a lot and they don't always use them right, but they do know how to do it. Failure, especially in this field, is the only way to get better. They'll get it
  • Varine Varine:
    They won't get feel down while they do the thermometer, but we didn't have an instant read probe when I was learning. Like they did but god knows how off it is, you HAD to do it by feel. Even if the chef was fine with me bringing my own, it takes too long. Poke and know
