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. ;)

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. ;)

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

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?

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

  • Varine Varine:
    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
